There have been discussions today (on Twitter) about the need for a centralised space to discuss TfL's plans for London's streets , infrastructure, road safety, campaigning, protests, police operations etc. accessible to the general public and perhaps not owned by a specific organisation. To some extent LFGSS is already being used for this as is evident from all these threads:
The Central London Grid
Police spotting (junction watch)
road safety?
London (Barclays) cycle hire
The Times cycling campaign
Blood on the streets
Sort of traffic that's messing your commute
Boris' new cycling advisor
Town planning for cycling aka bad junctions
Die in at TFL HQ
Space for cycling protest ride
Cycle campaigning
Shared road space
What do LCC think about cycle training?
The danger of dangerisation
Will I die while cycling to work?
New TfL HGVs can't see you for sh**t poster
Cycle superhighways east extension
20mph debate
Cycle lanes
...and many many more spread over a few sub forums here
Velocio thinks that once LFGSS moves over to microcosm then such a forum would be more accessible to people and LFGSS could host such a discussion space.
Is there a point in setting up a separate forum for these issues prior to microcosm?
Can we add a thread for north-south Superhighway plans?
The London Cycling Campaign is urging us all to show our support for the new cycle superhighways. Admittedly, they're not perfect (show me a plan that is), but many think they could be a game changer - big step towards transforming London's street into spaces that are safer and more inviting for cycling.
This and the east-west route are TfL's biggest gesture yet that they're serious about improving safety and increasing cycling numbers, so even if you won't ever use them, can I encourage everyone to try and get their workplaces to sign up in
support of the NS/EW proposals, as LCC/Andrew Gilligan have explicitly asked?TfL actually want to do this and are longing for people to support them.
