STOP TfL’S PLAN TO GRIDLOCK HOLLAND PARK ROUNDABOUT

Sign the petition

TfL are proposing a third cycle lane on Holland Park Roundabout which already has 2 well-used, historically safe cycle routes.

TfL’s scheme will remove 3 traffic lanes creating congestion on the roundabout and on local residential streets.

Less than 12% of residents and 30% of cyclists support it.

Residents have developed a better alternative – upgrading the existing cycle routes which are popular and historically safe.

BUT TfL can only go ahead if LBH&F Council approves this scheme.
