Taxi drivers win permission for judicial review over cycling superhighway

Mrs Justice Lang said the Association’s claim was arguable.

The LTDA will argue that the construction of the Superhighway is a development which requires planning permission.

Work began on the project in April this year and is due to be completed by summer 2016.

The Association is seeking a declaration from the court that it is in breach of planning control for TfL to undertake the works without having first obtained the requisite planning permission.

A High Court judge sitting in the Planning Court will hear the case, which is listed for one-and-a-half days.

Mark Lowe QC and Robert Williams of Cornerstone Barristers are acting for LTDA.
