Oh don't worry, your local shops will be wiped out but you'll have
uncharged access to BrentX and the "Westfield" aka White City complex.
So that's all right then. And Oxford Street can decline to cater for
tourists, tram or no tram.


So Colum, how many people get to Oxford Street by car, then?


No hard numbers


Right.

but the report (looking for it) favouring the tram and
an improvement to Oxford St did state the White City complex would pull
the west/north of London big spenders away from the street. No details
were given if they were users of car parks nearby or how they got there.


Which has nothing whatsoever to do with car use, then.
