But oddly the PDF is peppered with all sorts of demands that parts of
the route be safeguarded.

I'm all for provoking debate, and he makes some very sound basic
points about transport issues at places like Brent Cross - however I'm
not convinced that this really is the best way to provoke debate,
given that it is just a fantasy that falls apart as soon as you give
it a little thought.


Yes. If they're serious about pressuring government into building this
stuff then the very least they need to do is demonstrate it's
affordable and useful and we'd be daft not to build it. Their proposal
manages to do everything but that.
