November 2017 

:begin NOVEMBER MEETING CANCELLED!

SAVE DELANCEY-PRATT!
Monday 20 November 2017 19.00

We would have been holding our November meeting at the same time as Camden Council hold their Full Council meeting. A LARGE petition opposing a scheme, which had already been consulted and approved, now threatens to stop the construction of an important east-west cycle route in the Euston area. We have been given permission to send a deputation to the Council meeting and would value the support of as many members as possible. The Council meets at 7pm at the Town Hall on Judd Street WC1H 9JE

TAVISTOCK PLACE PUBLIC ENQUIRY
The Public Enquiry into improvements on Camden’s flagship protected cycle route took place in Camden Town Hall. The existing lanes were so successful they became dangerously overcrowded and broader lanes were needed. Camden’s implementation of these improvement was obstructed by a technicality, for which a Public Enquiry was deemed necessary. Two weeks of proceedings are reported on http://camdencyclists.org.uk/2017/10/taviplace/
