This book examines the London Ringways scheme; a set of urban motorways planned for London in the 1960s and 1970s. These motorways were designed to reduce congestion around the city but would have led to between 60 000 and 100 000 people losing their homes. This book looks in detail at the history of the scheme including details of where they would have gone and how they were opposed by London residents. Well illustrated throughout with colour and black & white photographs and maps. Hardback. 186 pages.
