I still can’t believe that the Silvertown Tunnel, the next Thames crossing will require a modern version of this rather than have a dedicated cycle space.

I appreciate cycling close to cars in a tunnel won’t be pleasant but we are slowly moving away from the internal combustion engine, the air will get better and better as electric gets more popular.

That depends on mass EV takeup, and the problem is that particulate pollution will hardly be reduced as EVs are significantly heavier and particulate pollution is mostly from brakes and tyres.

On the bright side, EVs don't need to use their brakes as much due to regenerative braking
