When the Streetspace changes to Cycle Super Highway 7 & 8 were installed, local residents were advised to submit their comments, but were also told there would be a review after 18 months. When will this period of review begin? My constituents, both those who like the changes and those who are less keen, will wish to be involved as much as possible in the review.

Transport for London (TfL) continues to monitor the changes made to CS7 and CS8 and is encouraging the public to offer ongoing feedback via the link below https://haveyoursay.tfl.gov.uk/ for the temporary CS7 changes and experimental CS8 changes.

As plans for CS7 develop, TfL will ensure stakeholders and the public are aware of when and how they can comment on future proposals. TfL plans to present a way forward in early 2022, at which point people will be invited to comment further on these plans. Those people who have asked to remain informed will be contacted by email, and these updates will be reflected on TfL’s website.

The six-month consultation on the CS8 experimental scheme ended on 10 December. By February 2022 a consultation report will be produced. TfL has recently contacted those people who wanted to be kept informed about the project to remind them of this date and also to provide an update more generally.  In spring 2022, TfL expects to make a decision on whether to make the changes permanent, or to modify or remove the scheme completely before the current Experimental Traffic Order expires later in 2022. The decision will be informed by overall performance, including cycle numbers, as provided in my response to Mayor’s Question 2021/4649, as well as safety data, equalities considerations, and the public consultation responses.
