A greater London is the goal for London’s transport.

“Any time we don’t have crowding during rush hour, there’ll be a receiver in the mayor’s office.
Why, listen, don’t you see? That’s the proof of our life and vitality?”

“This book is, in part, the story of a bad idea: the notion that our cities should be shaped by
the needs of cars, rather than people”.

“Experience tells us that road building won’t solve the problems we face. Now is the time for brave and creative decision-making, not a return to road building policies that were tried
and failed in the 1990s.”

“Even if we do all the things proposed by the Mayor’s Transport Strategy, including the
unfunded stuff, congestion will still increase by 60% by 2031.”

Building faster roads creates wealth.We could build a series of flyovers into central
London, allowing the wealth to spread outwards.
