So, the Oxford Street saga rumbles on:

As I said somewhere in this thread or elsewhere, I'll be very surprised if it gets 'pedestrianised' in the foreseeable future.
There is, of course, the wildcard of Labour potentially winning Westminster next week, as a poll suggested a little while ago, but currently the polls predict that the Tories will hold on to it and Wandsworth. Still, polls, eh? Anyway, were Labour to win Westminster, the chances of the Oxford Street project would obviously be rather improved.
None of that changes the fact that the question of how cycling along it would fare then remains unresolved.
