Londoner, walks, rides a bicycle, drives a car, often lost.
Still no idea what an "eco-caramel coconut latte" is.

The bollards are not individually planted, they are welded to a steel base. To make them the kerb line would require a different engineering design.

Bollards being installed next to the incoming cycle track on the north side of Lambeth Bridge.
Cycle track will probably be in use next month when the bridge waterproofing work will switch to the south side.

These Waymo vehicles will provide Londoners with new opportunities for fun.
Ordering a dozen cars to the Savoy would be a good start.

Yeah, the Labour run DfT is so upset about Khan and TfL subcontracting mngt of London Underground that it is cited in yesterday's plan to help other regional authorities take over local rail 🙄

2/ ... Remember that a lot of MPs' questions are on behalf of a constituent: "OK, I'll write to the minister for you" instead of directly telling their constituent "you're a numpty, stop wasting my time".

A presumed TfL fare increase was baked into the DfT settlement, but agree it all looks messy

DfT/ TfL June 2025 letter : fare increase = RPI+1 (unless, I assume, Mayor/ GLA/ TfL want to juggle budgets some other way without DfT getting grumpy)

Sort-of-locally, in the 18the century Jerry Abershawe enforced his version of the congestion charge at the top of the Kingston Bypass, and was the last highwayman whose body was publicly displayed after execution.

8/ Seems you only get a £1/minute fare if you buy the 20 use carnet, as Liam has spotted 👇

Oh and I just remembered there is also a carnet for regular users. £57.40 for 20 uses, and valid on all the cross river routes. Works out at £2.87 a pop, so a 30% discount. Unclear if groups / families can use the same carnet at once (there is no concession pricing for cross river journeys).

7/ Funny how the Mayor, the Walking & Cycling Commissioner, nor the PR statements state the fare!
"The price will set passengers back £1/minute" is the nearest ITV get to telling us the fare

The launch of the Orbit Clipper is a fantastic new transport option for Londoners.
As the UK’s first fully electric cross-river ferry, it will provide cleaner, more accessible journeys across the Thames and help us build a greener, fairer London for everyone.

See appendix to item 5 on the WBC June'25 Transport Ctte, re Honeywell School petition "there is now a design prepared that has been Road Safety Audited. This will be taken forward in 2025."
My guess = just the stat consultation post petition.

If I remember the DfT auth, Wandsworth's plan for the Webb's crossing is to have the yellow orbs illuminated, they just won't be flashing.

Can't find a Webb's crossing consultation the Wands/Richmond engagement site, just stuff about school streets, so I wonder if this was just a locally leaflet thing underpinned with the statutory consultation?

Wandsworth Council looks to have got a non-belisha crossing to mitigate objections from local residents who don't want lights flashing their £1m houses.

Zebra Crossing Stalemate: Safety vs. Parking on Webbs Road - NappyValleyNet: a mum's guide to SW London Life
After years of campaigning, the much-needed zebra crossing on Webbs Road to keep Honeywell’s children safe was finally due to be installed over half term. But alas, progress has been halted by a hand...
