Taxis - Black Cabs, Uber, Illegal Cabbies

Seems to me that LTDA said they supported cycle lanes and got their photo in the papers with that liveried cab, then they released statements saying they opposed the cycle lanes at Tavistock and CS11.

I don't know what the LTDA said on what exactly they support (people often say that sort of thing to sound a little positive, or because they implicitly support getting cycling out of the carriageway, without knowing what they're letting themselves in for) and I haven't been following the CS11 stuff much (life's too short), but in Bloomsbury they are basically opposing one-way working for through motor traffic. That this is caused by being a means to an end of providing cycle tracks is not likely to be a consideration that is uppermost in their minds. It clearly puts the taxi trade at a disadvantage in that area, and it would be quite unreasonable to expect the LTDA to act against the interests of its members.

As above, I think there should be a completely different and much more powerful scheme here, but Camden have, unfortunately, pivoted the consultation only on two options--keeping the experimental layout or reverting to the previous layout.
