Rivercourt Rd which runs between King St and the A4 Hammersmith, is now a residents only road with cameras, so fines will issued to anyone else driving along it.
It was a popular cut-through to avoid the broadway, so I guess a bit of a 'mare for the residents. |  | | |  |

Thank you. It was my usual route. I guess I'll come off at the Hogarth roundabout or go down to the Broadway depending on the directions of Waze.
As for the residents, it was like that when they moved In. It maybe more to do with the changes on King Street which makes getting out the end more difficult and hazardous. You have to cross a two way cycle path whilst pulling into the road. [Post edited 21 Nov 14:11]

Yes, the cycle route made it a dangerous spot.
I've received two fines for driving down residents only roads in Chiswick.
I'm not against it in principal but feel it can be dangerous if motorists have to constantly look out for the signs. | | | |

Is there such a thing as residents ONLY roads these days?
I thought they had run out of ideas of how to fine us.
Every day is a school day! |  |

That cycle route is really dangerous. I used to work at the Chiswick end (right by the old VW place) of King Street some 20 years ago but stopped a few years later. Went across it on my motorbike a few weeks ago for the first time in years due to a detour and had no idea that cycle lane was there as I approached King St and could easily have collided with one. |  | | |

The labour run councils of Hammersmith and Hounslow have created this mess - Chiswick High Road into Hammersmith Broadway is a massive council created bottleneck!
Only since the installation of the cycle route and removal of bus lanes I have started driving down Rivercourt Road. On the way home its now been so bad even getting to Rivercourt Road on the way home I have started going down Glenthorne Road and round the Hammersmith one way to go back on the A4 towards the A316 adding 4 miles or so to my journey. So much for the environment. |  | | |

Not sure if they are still there but I remember an outcry years ago about a massively confusing set of signs around Queens Crescent/Weedington Road near Kentish Town. Not only were there a whole heap of signs attached to one pole, but there is a long list of times/regulations as to when you can & can't drive down there.
How the hell is anyone able to process all that information in a second or two?
No wonder they raked it in on fines. | | | |

Rivercourt Road runs alongside my alma mater, so one side of it is nearly all school buildings... we used to chuck water bombs at the passing cars. How sad the current crop will no longer be able to avail themselves of this extracurricular activity. |  |

We are allowing them to gradually turn London into a ghost town.
Them being the cycling Stazi and their crazy mates
"Oooooooh... look at the gridlocked traffic" They scream.
Well, you're shutting all the roads or putting "claming methods" in so everything is funneled into smaller areas you knobs!
I was at a Coucil thing a good few months back where the chair of Ealing Cycling Lobby was holding up Amsterdam as a great example.
When I said to him that London has absolutely no similarities to the Dam as the vast majority of our urban conurbation has been there or a century or more he was perplexed. I asked him how he intended to fit trams, cars, buses and cycle lanes down the Uxbridge Road as a main link and his response was "you're not listening".

I don't believe in 'residents only roads'. FFS, you pay a tax for the upkeep of all streets, not fcking individual thoroughfares. | |
