“All across Europe they are building infrastructure for trams, cycles and buses. This is a 1990s project that’s coming to fruition 30 years later.”

A random thing on a DfT email is that the #SilvertownTunnel will be a Category E tunnel under the ADL system. This is the most stringent and is classed as high risk, so the highest dangerous goods restriction based on A to E. Dartford is C for comparison.

Mayoral and Assembly elections in #London #UK on Thursday.

I'm a #GreenParty member so I will be voting Green for the Assembly members. However, I'll also be voting for #SadiqKhan to remain as Mayor. The Green Party candidate #ZoeGarbett is great but under the new voting system, changed by Tories with little resistance from #UKLabour she won't win. I'm pretty happy with #MayorKhan, except for #SilvertownTunnel So to avoid any chance of the horrendous #Tory #SusanHall stealing it he gets my vote
