In addition there are more buses, and buses cause far more congestion
(in my opinion) than they remove - well they do if you run too many.



I wish those buses STAY in their own bus lanes!!!!

I'm sure bus drivers wish people didn't park in them so that they could
stay in them.

True but what if there were no parked cars?

I must admit that after my car was stolen I took to the Buses and the
numbers are ludicrous. At 7.30am I can go out onto Green Lanes and there
are about 2 of us at the bus stop and 3 empty buses will turn up.

As decent transport infrastructure in the form of rail or underground
actually costs money Ken has decided to flood the roads with buses. This
isn't a sensible alternative to building long term solutions to London's
transport problems.

So in the short, medium and long terms what is?

Cross rail as a must. Then start filling in the Tube map, with South
London getting a meaningful underground network.

Ideally re-nationalise the rail system and start running more trains
rather than less as the private operators seem to be doing.

Then rail links that go round London rather than going in and out of the
centre to get anywhere.

Oh and next week.................. ;-)
