I've read what the website has to say; seems a pity that you can't pay
by Oyster card.

If I had something like a canal towpath available between home and
work then I might consider it, but even if the scheme does get
extended this far out in the future, there's no way I'd ever want to
cycle up the Brighton Road.

I never cycled in London while I was being brought up. Since I came to
live in Cambridge over 40 years ago I cycle everywhere. Cycling in London
isn't that hard. Try it!

There are very often ways of routing oneself away from busy roads -
the 'London Cycle Network' often offers routes that take one away from
busy roads onto quieter side and back streets along with dedicated
cycle paths and a variety of cut-throughs for cyclists - it isn't
complete, and is far from perfect, but it provides a basis for
planning routes across London which one can then alter and customise
to suit. I really rather enjoy working out new routes across town away
from the main thoroughfares - the path less followed is often quite an
interesting one (plus one can get that feeling of engaging with the
city a bit more - well, I do at least).

Enough of my waffling - just to say there are ways of avoiding the A23!

I say we take off & nuke the entire site from orbit, it's the only way to be
sure...
