Mr Khan stated, 'In that part of the street we pedestrianise, I want it to be for people to walk around. There will be places to lock up your bike.' He is emphasizing the priority for pedestrians and the efforts to accommodate cyclists within the new structure.
Jeremy Vine backed the mayor's decision for an all-pedestrian Oxford Street, noting the benefits of fewer cars in central London. He suggested that this change would enhance the safety for cyclists.
Sadiq Khan's ambitious plan includes making Oxford Street free of all traffic – buses, taxis, and cars – aiming to create a world-class public space that supports leisure and cultural events.
Although Westminster council has committed to new cycleways, campaigners remain concerned about the lack of segregated routes. There's pressure on the mayor to convert existing routes into safer alternatives for cyclists.
