Default Crossrail fares announced - and a massive extension!

*And the Connect is the only way to get cycles into / out of
Heathrow. Not that many bother.

You mean outside of cars, taxis, and presumably riding the things in there?

I think you'll find cycling is banned in the tunnels to the central
terminals.


I thought that you were allowed to cycle through the small side tunnels otherwise
reserved for taxis? Or maybe that has changed?


My recollection is they closed some time ago. Originally perhaps to
facilitate the pods; but now the pods are on hold, maybe they will
re-open in some form eventually.

From Heathrow's website today:

"There is currently no direct cycle route to Terminals 2 and 3
due to construction work to the main road tunnel. Bicycles can
be parked in racks at the Heathrow Cycle Hub, where free local
buses operate to the terminals."
