The south carriage drive was TFL designed. This will by the royal parks.
The royal parks are far less on board with the idea of providing decent infrastructure for cyclists.
Backstop-
But...they consulted the 'cycling touring club'.

Had a chat with the LCC about this - they think RP's design solution is not an improvement to the existing track.
I suspect RP might want commuting traffic out of the park - which is fair enough - and their plan to achieve this is to make 'getting somewhere' cycling in the park as difficult and arduous as possible.
Oh look what just arrived...
To stand any chance of getting a real solution TFL needs to work with RP to either build a proper, segregated track in the park, or put in a proper segregated track out of the park and alongside Park Lane.
Sounds easy when you write it down... :)

Saw the signs about this yesterday and wondered what the plans were, assumed it would be an extension of the segregated path on south carriage drive, but clearly not. Looking forward to the alternative of two near misses every pass of park lane as you try and cross 4 lanes of fast moving traffic.
