Well, if you believe this site: http://www.func-junc.co.uk/ The one problem I can't quite work out is - if all roads go over and under each other, how on earth do you turn left or right?! That's not the only one. I'm sure the author never tried to bike on a 2 metre wide, bi-directional bike path, for example ... I'm also sure he never saw the prices privately owned car parks charge e.g. in Californian cities ... And I'm also sure he thinks he's never going to move, never going to need something delivered or repaired, and his waste is collected by little green men from Mars - or why did he design roads completely useless to anything higher than a car? ....

You need to understand that the author (in his own words) "is an idiot .... This has not stopped him from becoming an architect ... He has designed telephone exchanges and the top security prison in England." Obviously well qualified for radical redesign of the transport infrastructure. He should get together with that other "architect" who planned to deface London's streets with monorails. -- Richard J. (to e-mail me, swap uk and yon in address) |

You need to understand that the author (in his own words) "is an idiot" But his wife thinks he's a genius, and that's what counts. Incidentally, the area of West Hampstead shown in the map has been exceptionally quiet whenever I've been through there, with the exceptions of West End Lane and Kilburn High Road. -- John Rowland - Spamtrapped Transport Plans for the London Area, updated 2001 http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Acro...69/tpftla.html A man's vehicle is a symbol of his manhood. That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line - It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes |
