  1. There are a few items about the London Congestion Charging scheme, one year on, in the press.

    The actual report, at:

    tfl.gov.ukcc 12monthson.pdf

    mentions that pedal cycle use is up by 20%.

    In the BBC's report, at:

    news.bbc.co.uk3494015.stm

    a member of the Chamber of Commerce says: "Something needs to be done to end the anomaly of
    motorists paying a congestion charge at times when there is little or no congestion." I didn't
    realise motorists were paying to have congestion!

    A cyclist appears in the pop-up on:

    news.bbc.co.ukdefault.stm

    click on: "Views from the zone Is the congestion charge working?"

    On BBC Breakfast this morning they read out an e-mail from someone saying they cycled the 10 miles
    to work, got there as quickly as the cars and didn't have to waste any time going to the gym

    And 7 percent fewer accidents including cyclists. Oh, and 28% less cars involved in accidents.

    Looks like we'll be all cycling into each other in the future 🙂
