"Now that is not to say this type of business justification cannot be overruled. For the decision on Cycle Superhighways, TfL set aside a poor Benefit/Cost ratio resulting from predicted motor traffic delays as it was deemed a separated cycle route was strategically more important for other reasons." The latest purchase of New Routemasters has a strongly negative BCR*, but apparently that doesn't matter there either, because like the superhighways political considerations are more important. That this doesn't apply to the TG Piccadilly stop rather indicates that all talk of anyone forcing anyone to do anything are hogwash. * there are more fuel efficient alternatives that carry more people and cost less to buy and run |
