A London of 2020 (apparently) will be a city with:- A neo-Victorian surge of investment in mass transport – by 2018 the great engineering feat of our time, Crossrail, will be open and a massive programme of tube upgrades complete.
- A cycling revolution – new superhighways will cross the city, connecting rail hubs, while a network of quietways will radiate from town centre ‘mini-Hollands’.
- The education and skills to compete to win London’s share of global growth, with enough school places and more valuable work-place opportunities.
- The best place to invest and do business on the planet, building on our financial prowess and investing in tech and med hubs – areas in which we can lead the world.
- The biggest home-building drive for a generation providing homes that Londoners can afford.
- Opportunity areas opened up for homes and jobs, creating new neighbourhoods and tackling social exclusion.
- Vibrant, safe, attractive, green town centres and streets bustling with life and business.
So what do you think of Boris' plans?
I don't think the new superhighways will work at all tbh.
