Central London Bus Network Review, November 2009
Nov. 18, 2009
Following on from the concerns and recommendations raised in the October 2009 Transport Manifesto, CLF commissioned iCube to undertake further work investigating the challenges of the central London bus network.
This report is designed to stimulate debate regarding the opportunities to review the central London bus network to respond to growing concerns about the influence and impact of buses on the public realm and other road users.
Examination of the criteria used by TfL when planning the bus network reveals that the guidance is focused on operational and internal issues, with little or no consideration of the external impact of the network planning process. In a sense the review process proposed by CLF is a request to incorporate these wider factors into the planning of the network.
