How does the N74 cross the centre between Roehampton and Putney then? Oops. I was trying to correct Putney to Roehampton, but accidentally corrected Baker Street to Roehampton. It's meant to be Baker Street to Roehampton. Thanks. I'm not sure I even count Roehampton to Baker Street as crossing the centre either as it happens. Depends on your definition of the centre! It enters the congestion charging zone and it spends a significant portion of its journey in Zone 1. Doesn't go anywhere central, though, does it? Hyde Park Corner? Park Lane? Marble Arch? All distinctly west. Don't say that to all those bloody tourists queueing at Gloucester Road on a Saturday morning for day travelcards. They might think their hotels weren't central enough. You've spent too much time at Kensington Polytechnic (or whatever it's called these days), young man! Well, they didn't produce 14 Nobel laureates by letting the students stay at home all day... -- Dave Arquati Imperial College, SW7 www.alwaystouchout.com - Transport projects in London |

Aka why the hotels near Paddington station are a very good idea - you have the FGW ticket office as well as the LU one to choose from. |
