I hear Hackney made the worst place to live in the C4 programme, Best and Worst Places to Live 2006. Shame, though it’s nice to see the work in the borough on being super cycling friendly getting credit. And that’s in part due to my mate Trevor Parsons, who has done ‘his bit’.
Cheers Stuart. Let’s say at least that the borough of Hackney maybe isn’t quite as actively cycle-hostile as elsewhere. Plenty still to do, eg getting rid of the Stoke Newington one-way system and the M11-oriented one-way systems in the north-east of the borough. And cutting down on motor traffic and especially HGVs [don’t go down the left-hand side of trucks, people!]. But yeah, it’s generally a nice place to cycle around.
