Widening the North Circular.

"The £900 million plan to improve the traffic-choked North Circular Road (A406) in Barnet and Enfield has been shelved for at least the next five years and may never go ahead, the Mayor of London Ken Livingstone said this week.

The North Circular Road programme is the largest scheme to have been scrapped in the Mayor's five-year transport programme, Mr Livingstone admitted this week, with the plan downgraded to a £24m investment." (Bridge replacement at Bounds Green).

Back on topic: Thameslink 2000 has become snared in planning disputes but looks set to take a step forward. "It will shortly be announced that the scheme will cost two or three billion pounds and be completed in 2013-2014," said Mr Livingstone.

From "Funds go East" by the Hendon and Finchley Times.
