TfL considering modifying cycle lane on Blackfriars Bridge

Out of interest do the LCC submit their own plans for TFL's consideration or do they just say "no, we don't like this" and ask TFL to make changes?

Bump! LCC will be publishing a vision for Blackfriars. In the mean time see everyone at the bridge 0830 tomorrow.

What Mustafa said. We have our own vision, but it is also worth noting that we first fed that into the process back in 2006/7 or so (can't remember exactly when). TfL drew it up into a design but apparently dismissed it during the process leading up to where we are now.

This vision is of a simple layout with two T-junctions, in particular removing the 'teardrop island' in the centre which causes such a strangely twisted carriageway layout.

Blackfriars is a key location, one of the most important in London, and an unmissable opportunity to do something progressive. Should be a good turnout tomorrow morning! Do come along.
