High Streets for All

Bus and London Underground services must be better integrated. For 150 years residents have campaigned for direct access from High Barnet Station to the town itself. We still face a very steep climb even to the nearest bus stop let alone the town centre. This is inconvenient for all and impossible for many, including those with legally protected rights. Any other idea from City Hall is completely pointless compared to the continued absence of this frequently promised but never delivered provision. All it needs is a bus between the station itself, the central Church, the hospital and the shopping centre. Other public transport to the town seems only the accidental consequence of it being a convenient terminus rather than planned to service the town itself. There are similar issues at numerous stations and the towns they in theory serve.
