    • Reference: 2011/3688
    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2011
    A constituent asks: given the obvious and explicit priority being given to vehicular traffic flow over and above the needs of vulnerable road users at road junctions and on almost all roads in London, could the Mayor share the cost-benefit analysis which supports this policy? Within the analysis, what cost has been placed on the injury or a fatality of a vulnerable road user? If the analysis doesn't exist, why did the Mayor decide on the current policy, and how many deaths will it take to reverse this?
