Go Sutton Bus and ULEZ Expansion

  • Reference: 2022/2281
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 21 July 2022
The Go Sutton customer satisfaction survey from November 2019 found that 60% of Go Sutton customers would use their car less in favour of demand responsive buses. Do you believe that the implementation of the ULEZ expansion and its objectives to reduce the use of polluting vehicles and curb carbon emissions should be coupled with the reintroduction of demand responsive bus schemes, such as Go Sutton?

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 21 July 2022
TfL’s ‘Demand responsive bus trials’ report from July 2021 states that the Go Sutton trial was suspended in March 2020 “as a result of the coronavirus pandemic”. Given the popularity of the service, does TfL have any plans to reintroduce the scheme in future?

D3 Bus Route

  • Reference: 2022/2279
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon

Given that Wapping Overground station isn’t step-free, the rerouting of the D3 bus route will result in the loss of the only step-free link between Wapping and the Royal London Hospital, with nine bus stops no longer being served by any route. Following a local campaign from residents, will you reconsider these changes, which are set to disproportionately affect disabled, older and low-income Londoners?
