That is wrong. Most roads remained with the London Borough councils on
formation of TfL and still remain so. Apart from the former motorways
already mentioned, only the existing Red Routes plus a handful of
roads that later became Red Routes (a small percentage of the total
length of roads in London, albeit the "most important") became the
responsibility of TfL.
