So we have councillors who have consistently denied any issues with ' Enhanced Bus Stops' originally known as Bus Islands.

Same characters have denied the increases in bus journey times even though timetables were altered well before proposals and were made public so as to 'lessen the impact'.

Now we have a report that shows a huge increase in journey times but in fact some journeys on local routes are up from 15 to 20 mins to 45 to 55 mins.

TFL dismiss incident involving pedestrians, cyclist and other cyclists involved in collisions unless it involves a motor vehicle.  The mislead bt making the assumption that all 'collisions' involving a motor vehicle and a pedestrian or cycles are caused by the motor vehicle.

They completely distort the situation and then use local politicians and officers to bolster their desires.

They have consistently dismissed complaints and concerns by multiple charities and emergency services and local groups who have first hand knowledge and expertise.

Staff at the front line of some emergency services are 'discouraged' by management to lodge reports and complaints caused by traffic schemes and initiatives and in some cases it 'may bear on your career prospects'.

The recent consultation was completely full of loaded questions and a tone of we are going to do this whatever, anyway.

People are not stupid, they see what is clearly flawed and wasteful expenditure when so much that could make local getting around remains completely neglected.

Little wonder so very few participate. Which is a shame but we all know that even if 90% participated and challenged the plans diligently or positively ( which is not permitted anyway) nothing would change.

This is why we end up with such idiotic, second rate and for many downright dangerous ' improvements'.

Does anyone really care about this endless misleading and misrepresentation towards citizens?
