i spend a lot of time on the walworth project as its now called. apparently it was based on king street in hammersmith?? one thing to note is this...they actually have taken out many of the bus lane sections that provided a safe place to cycle with better vision of you coming up the road. walworth has always had a problem with people randomly crossing the road, especially at the natwest bank and east street market. but they have actully narrowed the road meaning that in order to get past the traffic you have to be pretty lucky not to get a random step out of a pedestrian between cars that are now much tigher together. also it isn't quite the tree lined boulavarde that was shown on the promotional bunff they sent out. and i think a grand total of about 5 new sheffield bike stands have been put in 'to encourage cycling'!!
