By City Architecture Forum
July 2020

Bruce McVean, Acting Assistant Director, City Transportation, City of London Corporation and Roy McGowan of Momentum Transport consultancy discuss “City Streets - the Transportation response to support the City’s recovery from Covid -19”.

The City of London Corporation has begun to deliver its transport recovery plan, designed to ensure the safety of workers, residents and visitors as people return to the Square Mile. The scheme is primarily focused on providing the space needed to maintain social distancing on our streets and to enable safe walking, cycling and the managed use of public transport.
