Polluting businesses & construction

Do not allow polluting businesses, such as garages, in residential areas. Halt excessive construction of tall buildings in densely populated areas and replace with green areas/parks. Make narrow residential streets one way.

Well, sorry to advise, but Khan will not be on your side. He is as bad as Johnson. One built for business, and the current one is building to overpopulate London even more. Both are useless.

I totally agree with the point made. And why are large/tall blocks of flats constructed when there is limited provision for parking? The assumption that there are public transport facilities nearby for residents to use and hence car usage will be limited is rubbish. The public transport system will not cope with all these additional people unless it is made bigger too!... But I digress, residents have our own piece of leafy heaven and certainly do not want to live in a built up concrete jungle. The needs of present residents needs to be considered before blighting the area with any large construction
