Transport against London *is* the highway authority.

A corrupt situation.

Ridiculous comment, absent of any meaning.

That you cannot agree that the current situation is a corrupting process
simply means that you approve of it.

I do...

I knew it.

Of course, I don't think it's corrupt in the slightest.

I see what you mean... one competing provider in the market has a whip
hand over all the other competitors and has the power to obliterate
their access to the highway... what could possibly go wrong?

What is the opposite of preaching to the converted? I suspect in this
forum you're preaching to an unsympathetic congregation. For what it's
worth, I agree with you completely. I am a motorist and I regard TfL
as the enemy. I have done since about six months after they started.

just because they can abuse this position doesn't mean that they will
what examples of actual abuse here do you have?

You seem very trusting of oppressive dictators.

Have you never heard the name "Livingstone"?

When the bendybuses were in use, every bus stop that they served was

Hardly given the small proportion of the road network TfL actually
manage.

The boroughs have the lion's share.

Look at the last few pages of the document below - it lists out who is
responsible for what on the road network.

Have you tried driving (a car) along any of London's major arteries
recently?

No but I don't see how that remark automatically means TfL are a
corrupt organisation which is what you implied. There is no point in
turning London's roads into motorways given the decline in car usage
over the last decade.

Do you think that having £10 a day purloined from your bank account
might have an effect on "car usage"?

An awful lot if you had your way. Thankfully, you don't!

Interesting that TfL still don't seem to be interested in Kassel kerbs.

A number of London bus stops do have them.

Who has suggested turning London's roads into motorways?
