Vauxhall, Elephant & Castle and Camden Town are three particularly significant 'edge of zone 1' stations that instantly spring to mind where this tactic can fruitfully be employed - but there are plenty of others such as Bermondsey, Whitechapel, Essex Road, Notting Hill Gate, Royal Oak etc which might work for individual commuters. On which note, it'll be interesting if any of Boris's bike hire schemes appear at edge-of-Z1 stations. *They're effectively intended to give people an alternative to bus or tube onward transport from London rail terminals, after all. Arguably TfL's Finsbury Park cycle park can fulfil a similar role for regular commuters, though you obviously need to supply your own bicycle! http://www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/cycling/9003.aspx I've no idea how many people do use if for parking their bike overnight. Also, one wouldn't want to get there in the evening and find no space because it was still full up with the bike's of 'daytime parkers'. I must sign up with them at some point just so as to check it out and give it a test run. I haven't really been following developments w.r.t the cycle hire scheme - where are we (/is he) at with that then? And is it going to work? |
