A constituent has raised concerns about pick-ups and drop-offs by Private Hire Vehicle (PHV) drivers in London, particularly at Euston station. They are concerned about PHVs clustering in surrounding streets and a lack of enforcement. Does Transport for London (TfL) collect data on safety implications arising from PHV pick-ups and drop-offs at popular destinations like train stations, cultural institutions and entertainment venues?

Thank you for your answer to my question 2025/1783 in which you said: “In 2024/25 £0.986m was awarded to 13 boroughs for the delivery of 702 new [micromobility parking] bays.

Thank you for your answer to my question 2025/1790 in which you said: “The 270km expansion of the cycle network from 90km in 2016 to 360km by March 2024, counted new Cycleways and extensions of existing Cycleways. Routes that were converted from Quietways or Superhighways to Cycleways were not counted as new routes and did not contribute to expansion of the network.” Could you provide me with a list of the cycleways that you included in this calculation, plus any assessment that has been made of cycleways that go through areas of high deprivation compared with areas of low deprivation...

Thank you for your answer to my question 2025/1767 in which you said: “London's evolving population and demographics have had an impact on bus use.

The media is reporting that a daily average of 1,800 additional vehicles – in particular lorries – are using the Woolwich ferry since the Silvertown Road Tunnel was opened, apparently to avoid paying tolls. Transport for London (TfL) has stated the combined Silvertown and Blackwall corridor averages 88,000 vehicles across both directions on a typical weekday, a reduction from the 90,000 to 100,000 vehicles that were using the Blackwall Tunnel on an average day before the Silvertown opening. What action will you take to stop lorries from avoiding tolls by using this free ferry?

Thank you for your answer to my question 2025/1778, in which you provided me with a table of the sites of the 331 WCs via your Good Growth Fund since 2017. Could you: a) confirm whether these 331 are sites with banks of toilets or 331 individual toilets and urinals, and if it’s the former, how many sites there are in total, b) add to the table provided the year the work was completed, and c) confirm that staff at toilets in locations, that are publicly accessible on request, are trained to allow people to use them?

A constituent has raised concerns with me about the ban by Transport for London (TfL) of non-folded e-bikes on its transport network. They suggest that the banning of e-bikes seems to stem from insurers who do not differentiate between manufactured e-bikes and conversion kit goods. Could you: a) advise on an action plan to make sure regulations are based in evidence and not reaction to press misrepresentation, and b) lead by example and implement policy to support GLA staff riding e-bikes to work?
