Mobility Master Plan (Transportation Planning)

I'm sure you already know this, but I'm guessing East London gets all the crossings because whenever something is proposed in the North or West, residents squawk and protest. Many residents around the Medway ESA look at the valley as being their own private natural area. Anything that makes it more accessible to the greater city is likely going to see opposition. They'll complain about people parking on neighbourhood streets, people damaging the environment, throwing whatever they can at the wall to see what sticks.

East London generally seems happy and welcoming of improvements. Conversely, I can imagine loads of West-enders throwing a tantrum over a multi-use bridge in Medway.

I want to see an asphalt multi-use path blasted straight through Medway valley connecting Gainsborough and Windermere just as you said. It's ridiculous we haven't bridged that gap already.
