We desperately need to reverse the current course of action. A fast and reliable bus service is paramount to encouraging people to use thair cars less. The @MayorofLondon 's plan to dismantle the bus priority network and reduce speeds does the opposite.

This may sound silly, but even when walking, I feel uneasy seeing the 20mph signs plastered everywhere. It feels like it's a way for the new urbanists to remind us commoners that they're in charge, akin to when dictators do the same with their symbols.
