| No that is not what I mean at all. Why comment on something that you clearly do not understand, that, to any obective view is 'nonsensical'? Having worked in Paris (both in Motrouge and La Defense) it is easy to see how a fifteen minute neighbourhood could be implemented in these virtually self contained 'communities' far easier than London. The arrondisements have their own schools most have more than one hospital, multiple healthcare centres, shopping areas and cinemas.theatres, no need to travel much at all, sticking in a bit of poorly implemented cycling infrastructure or erecting afew bollards will not build these facilities in London. The problem, clearly not understood by anyone so blinkered by their 'cycle-centric' thinking, is that the enclaves have become socially isolating ghettos with 'richer' neighbourhoods being refined at the expense of communities, often on racial lines. Before you expound again using your limited knowledge of Paris, (even leaving Hanwell once in a while would improve your world view) you might want Ben to look at Charenton, Issy-les-Moulineaux, Ivry-sur-Seine and Montreuil where fifteen minute neighbourhoods have further isolated already 'distanced' communities. Is that want you want for London? |
