Video: Planned cycling-friendly transformation of Stratford town centre
Newham Council has released a video of planned improvements to Stratford town centre. The plan is to introduce two-way traffic and segregated cycle lanes which will join up with Cycle Superhighway 2. The plans also feature wider footways and cycle facilities near shops.
The Stratford one-way traffic system was originally introduced in 1967, but the council says it has been obsolete since the completion of the Woodford Bypass in 1992 which links the A12 in Hackney to the M11.
The plan is to introduce a two-way traffic system and road calming measures to reduce speeds. There will be raised crossings and junctions and a 20mph limit.
There will also be segregated cycle tracks with a level difference to the footway and these will connect to CS2.
If the changes are approved, construction will begin in summer 2017. The aim is to complete the improvements by spring 2019.
Alex has written for more cricket publications than the rest of the road.cc team combined. Despite the apparent evidence of this picture, he doesn't especially like cake.

A plebiscite? Is that like when you start a petition calling for a new general election because you don't like the result of the last one?

Cheers for the lesson! Wasn't expecting one so was pleasantly surprised, especially getting to find the origin of "laconic"!

Incredibly bone-headed.

Video looks good, but where are all the cyclists?!
So after a mere blink of an eye (24 years) they've realised? What else have they missed in that time?
