stepover

+1 recommendation: Called Adam at 11am last Thursday to help with a plumbing problem, he came round by noon, assessed the problem, went and bought the correct part (confirming the price with me before proceeding) and then fixed it by 2pm.

I agree with the concerns about the paths being bi-directional with (from the looks of things) no markings or physical separation (such as cats eyes) between the opposing cycle lanes. Anyone who has ever cycled in Richmond Park will be well familiar with the small(ish) minority of idiot cyclists who will move out at speed into oncoming traffic in order to over take slower cyclists. Although the pictures in the proposal show a wide cycle lane with apparently room to overtake safely, I fear in practice this will not be the case.

I also can't understand why the proposal shows the lane beginning on the north side of the Elephant & Castle roundabout. It is well documented that the E&C Roundabout is the number 1 fatality black spot for cyclists in London but it is crossing the roundabout that is the problem - so surely the safe lane needs to begin BEFORE not after the roundabout?!

Just wondering if this has opened yet? I'm looking for a new Barbers so thought I'd give them a try.
