This 2017 @TfL paper ‘Understanding and managing congestion in London’ is an excellent read. Some highlights:
1) build more bus lanes
[but... how do you fit a double bus lane in a 3.5m wide lane?

3) Key Factors to Congestion across London:
Recurrent demand = too many cars
Excess demand = even more cars than usual
cycle lanes and LTNs = do not feature on the chart

4) I did not know this! Thought it was a borough thing. What are the mayoral candidates saying about a #workplaceparkinglevy then? Does anyone know?

Anyway the whole thing is well worth a read. Roll on road user pricing!
