Removal of the new road signs and planting pots on roads

The Issue

The recent road closerure seems to be nothing but an aggressive way of pushing people onto the main streets where we are faced with congestion and frustration due to being in traffic. 

Simple task of dropping the kids to school or driving home has become exhausting what usually takes people 5 minutes now has increased to 30minutes  if not more this is reduliclious.

What happens with ambulance and firemen that need to assess the road. This is a safety issue. 

We pay road tax to drive on the road without difficulty or stress. We have recently been told congestion charge is 7 days a week and will run till 10pm and now they have blocked of roads that we are accustomed to driving on to get us to A to B without the hassle of being into to much congestion.

This is a big change and should not have been done so abruptly without warning.

This seems to be nothing but a money making scheme. 

I have also been told bus lanes will run longer. This is absolutely reduliclious. Which means when we are diverted onto the main congested roads we can not make use of the bus lanes. 

Outcome:

Remove all the new rd blocks to avoid congestion. We need to be more realistic we live in london it's a busy place where almost everyone has a vehicle. It almost seems like your trying to force everyone onto a crowed bus , train or even ride bikes this is not acceptable or practical. If there should be road closure implement them in oxford circus where it will make sense to do that.
