It's always a bit sad when a scheme mentions the benefits (fewer buses)
and omits the drawbacks (more taxis in the central bores). Makes you
wonder what else they "forgot" to mention...


Bicycles ? Don't know if they still are, but the taxi tunnels used to
be signposted for cycles too.


Originally, weren't they exclusively for bicycles (and essential
maintenance/emergency use).
