Current work on Boleyn Rd (C1) is for paving on the east side of a new ("electric"!)🚶crossing (pics 1,2).
This possibly signals the end of the works, so there could be some road resurfacing along here sometime soon.

Leave the C2W limit-free (although a lot of schemes have limits anyway. Mine is £3k).
Insist that cycles bought under C2W have to have mudguards and lights so are practical for year round use. that stops the leisure arguments straightaway.

Compare and contrast the Government language.
£3,750 EV grant on a £35k car: ‘helping families’.
Cycle to Work: ‘subsidising leisure’.
And yet cycling delivers TEN TIMES the impact of electric cars for reaching net zero. It’s almost like narrative, not data, is driving policy.
