To be honest I don't like the new pavement for diagonal crossings. It look quite cheap and it is not very beautiful.
I think about the same than the old guy intervived in the BBC video. "Several million for only that" Anyway the X idea is good and will improve the place.
Here I think that they could use the term busiest diagonal crossing as it is very uncommon in Europe.

Not that true vendalism and thief is quite an issue for Paris Velib sheme. London will face the same problem.
Central London traffic is low and slow, the big buses could be a problem but nothing more.
There are already many things done for cycling (lane, traffic light...).
