A governance dispute at Sir Thomas More Estate in Kensington & Chelsea raises questions about residents’ associations, major works, and who holds legitimate authority to represent a community.

I have mentioned before how Fayed's perceived wealth gave him immunity from the law, an official from #RBKC told the #ChelseaSociety they simply would not oppose Fayed's plans for his mansion "because he was too rich"
2/ ... #RBKC shuffled the barriers on Albert Bridge back overnight ... bet there isn't room for a non-std/ cargo bike?
#AlbertBridge
This afternoon, #RBKC has shuffled the barriers on Albert Bridge, making room for folk on bikes on the carriageway instead of the pavement.
(Is this arrangement just for this afternoon? Or a temporary layout until post 20 Feb while inspection works continue?)
#AlbertBridge
London's cycleway #C8 #CS8 getting much needed upgrades after (an eternity) of planning.

While Q'town Road gets improved by #Wandswoth Council, the seg'd track stops at Chelsea Bridge managed by #RBKC where folk cycling must use bus lane.

Kensington & Chelsea, & Westminster City Councils are responding to a serious #CyberAttack that has disrupted services. @NCSC / @GCHQ are assisting with the investigation.

This what I keep urging #RBKC to do
At meetings with #RBKC we told them they would get the project wrong and then leave, just as they as they always do
"No, no", they said, "We aren't like those previous Council employees who got it wrong."
We just had a letter announcing - wait for it - they got it... horribly wrong
Expect them to go
A great piece and glad to see @joepowell.bsky.social mentioned, doing a great job at #RBKC

Pages 111-113 of the linked RBKC Local Plan re the site owned by the Gov of Iran in Kensington
This summer's #RBKC local plan reports the site is still owned by Gov of Iran, ideally targetted for 50+ flats in the future

A local school, presumably Notting Hill Prep School, routinely have their school buses blocking the advisory cycle lanes on Ladbroke Grove - as a reminder this was a £680,000 scheme that pretended cycling was a key theme but delivered painted lines 😬 #RBKC
Are we really surprised #RBKC is defunding transport related activities when it has failed to deliver long planned Quietway network, rips out funded cycle lanes, blocks TfL funded street improvements… @metecoban92.bsky.social @joepowell.bsky.social @london.gov.uk @ruthcadbury.bsky.social
Photo of Treverton Street in North Kensington, a dead end street with a school entrance. The road is lined with with parked cars on either side and another lane filled with parents’ idling vehicles at end of school day
Junction of Treverton Road with Ladbroke Grove. Parents vehicle parked across pedestrian crossing and another idling vehicle obstructing visibility on junction
Another school street in #RBKC, our council has no vision or leadership on vision zero or healthy streets, no wonder they are set to divert parking revenue away from transport related works!
A classic where traversing #RBKC is like a cobbles section: you're pushed into the gutters, you pray for the misery to be over quickly, and grateful if you complete it unscathed.

some of Traffic REgs 1994 section 55 listing things that parking income can be spent on, which references the Pollution Prevention Act 1999
Shot of Pollution Prevention Act'99 listing things that where the environment needs to be protected ... doesn't mention recycling.
I'm no lawyer but #RBKC is stretching environmental clauses:
> parking income can be spent per Traffic Regs'84 s55
www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1984/2...
which does include enviro clauses per Pollution Prev'99 but
> Pollution Prev'99 www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1999/24 doesn't mention recycling
