Next mayor should seize control of Oxford Street and High Street Kensington, says Green candidate Sian Berry Ross Lydall
Oxford Street should be brought under the control of the mayor to allow it to be pedestrianised, Green candidate Sian Berry said today.
Roads such as High Street Kensington and Holland Park Avenue should also be seized by Transport for London to overcome council objections to building safe cycle routes, she said.
Ms Berry, who wants to spend £400m a year on cycle schemes, believes it is vital to complete a network of strategic routes “as quickly as possible”, and improve safety at more than 200 dangerous junctions, to encourage Londoners to walk and cycle.

Cyclists in Havering have joined an initiative which pairs up experienced riders with newcomers to the sport.
The Cycle Buddies scheme will see Havering Cyclists match seasoned riders with those less so; they may be entirely new or returning to the saddle after time away.
Though a first for Havering, Cycle Buddies already runs in a number of boroughs across the capital as part of the London Cycling Campaign.
