Come ‘celebrate’ the re-election of Boris Johnson at the next WESC, a man who needs plenty of reminders about the presence of powered two wheelers in London, judging by his pre-election Transport Manifesto, which seemed to skirt over the other group of two-wheeled vulnerable road users.
With motorcycles and scooters now allowed in bus lanes within Westminster, the parking tax looks more and more out of touch with the increasing realisation that p2w’s are part of the solution to the daily transport chaos of our capital city.
The changes to bus lanes are a step in the right direction, but until Westminster stops charging people to park in their borough, it’s hard to tell whether they are trying to encourage or discourage the congestion-busting mode of transport we all choose to ride.
We meet, as ever, from 5pm at Villiers Street.
