Again we're hearing reports from people cycling about near misses on Chatham Place. We agree that "It doesn't really make any sense why Chatham Place has a closure at the junction with Morning Lane, but Belsham Street doesn't." Mete Coban MBE Hackney Council reddit.com/r/londoncyclin…

Reimagine Amhurst Rd consultation closes 17 March. NB: if bus gate is 7am-7pm, cyclists are expected to mix with buses, then all motor traffic after 7pm. This is not enabling cycling for all ages/abilities. We prefer 24/7 bus gate & segregated cycle track. consultation.hackney.gov.uk/streetscene/am…
