  • True - however it is still at the consultation phase and nothing has been decided.
    Having a deeper look at the facebook page - it mentions the idea of a car free zone, which is being promoted by http://www.trafficfreeregentspark.org.uk/
    This website is run by Outer Circle Action Group (OCAG) which in turn is affiliated to:
    Camden Cycling Campaign, Camden Friends of the Earth, Canal and River Trust, Westminster Cycling Campaign, Westminster Living Streets

    Having a quick look at their proposal they are suggesting either gates at entrances to the outer circle, or having obstacles in the lanes to slow all traffic and restrict cars.
    Additional road obstacles would be an issue with cyclists so although I am sure many of us are happy to support the removal of cars, we need to be careful in making sure that we are not fixing one issue and creating another...

  • You are right - there are concerns that the removal of some cars (as through traffic) would speed up the remaining traffic. Hence the speed humps/raised platform plans at 14 different locations around the outer circle.
