The Rise and Fall of London's Ringways, 1943-1973

By Michael Dnes

This book explores the genesis, development and collapse of London's controversial post-war plans for urban motorways, and how grand plans for infrastructure gained and lost legitimacy. It examines why and how plans were made, and how expert opinion changed as it failed to deliver utopia.
