He can still revert to the Court of Appeal if he likes, but to be honest I don't think he'd get very far and wonder why he'd bother to waste his money.<br /><br />Thank you, Anonymous planner, for the inside info about other planning applications: I will be keeping a very eager eye on developments.<br /><br />@theonlylyrick The photos are mine, as is the dirt digging about Mr Carroll's own 'beautification' of the area: it's amazing what you can find with a bit of time, persistence and Google!ibikelondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06978714126105951294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-65858187477086465602010-07-12T22:52:29.120+01:002010-07-12T22:52:29.120+01:00And someone who cannot work a comments box.And someone who cannot work a comments box.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-72766877139990779482010-07-12T22:51:43.074+01:002010-07-12T22:51:43.074+01:00I am a planner and a London cyclist.

I am quite looking forwards to these things being built as I will be able to cycle to English Heritage on a rental bike rather than fail to find a decent parking spot when I get there.<br /><br />An application on the scale of the cycle scheme - across London - unquestionably meets the thresholds requiring a full environmental impact assessment. TFL have done the work with a series of separate applications, one for each site. In many cases the sites have actually been built in the wrong places and revised applications will be needed. The whole application process has been very rushed and potentially open to legal challenge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-48349247121135498502010-07-12T22:51:43.075+01:002010-07-12T22:51:43.075+01:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-49915315803094380442010-07-12T21:20:27.380+01:002010-07-12T21:20:27.380+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18076005616903692048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-78854307328561888662010-07-12T17:07:34.897+01:002010-07-12T17:07:34.897+01:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.h2clubshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05624046781281296378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-82850086983531657202010-07-12T11:09:46.365+01:002010-07-12T11:09:46.365+01:00Eloquently put, Bransby.Eloquently put, Bransby.ibikelondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06978714126105951294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-37030016258877322692010-07-12T10:54:05.287+01:002010-07-12T10:54:05.287+01:00One suspects Mr. Carroll is just a twat.One suspects Mr. Carroll is just a twat.Bransbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00808890758590538035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-14485914447988756322010-07-12T09:58:18.559+01:002010-07-12T09:58:18.559+01:00Another possibility would be, that he cares less a...Another possibility would be, that he cares less about the bicycles, and more about the parking area "lost".
