I've only just seen that FOGWOFT has disbanded, sad to see.
Fogwoft, chaired by former Labour councillor Mary Mills, had also hoped to help allow considerate cycling in the tunnels – at present cycling is banned but inconsiderate cyclists can only face a fine of £1 under byelaws last revised in 1938. Tower Hamlets Council has refused to approve a bylaw change for the Greenwich tunnel following a local campaign on the Isle of Dogs. In 2017, TfL said the Greenwich tunnel would reach its capacity for cyclists by 2025.
“Major issues remain unresolved. Top of the list are the issues of cycling and of lift maintenance. The first is blocked by the refusal of Tower Hamlets to agree to a revision of the byelaws. Without this change infringement fines are set at 20 shillings; result, zero enforcement. A trial of allowing cycling under certain circumstances remains stalled since it is dependent on the byelaw change.
It's also quite amazing that fixing the lifts depends on getting parts from Germany.
