Universities sector [3]

  • Reference: 2020/3451
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
Universities are well-placed to take a leadership role within their local communities’ recovery from the pandemic, and to work with both local authorities and the FE sector who may be lacking the recovery apparatus and range of connections that universities have to build back prosperity. This is often particularly important for modern universities, like Middlesex University, that are anchor institutions plugging skills gaps and providing employment within their local communities. Do you agree that there is an opportunity to support universities to work more holistically with local authorities and colleges in London and fulfil their wider civic role in this...

  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
Middlesex University in my constituency is doing everything that they can to ensure a safe return to campus for students. However, particularly with regard to students’ journeys to campus, there is much that remains unknown and the problem for their students will be complex, as 76% commute more than 40 minutes per day and half commute for more than an hour. Will you encourage TfL to work with universities to understand student needs, and their travel flows/peak times?

The University sector welcomes the Mayor’s recognition of the role that London universities have to play in creating opportunities for Londoners from all backgrounds and the need to continue work on widening participation across London. Given the current Government policy rhetoric about levelling up, which tends to focus on the UK regions, do you agree that there is a need to lobby the Government about the need to level up in London, along with the rest of the country and that it is crucial that there is an understanding of ‘place within place’, as broad brush regional perspectives can miss...

Drummond Street

  • Reference: 2020/3448
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
It is impossible to access Drummond Street when travelling from south to north as the right turn from Hampstead Road is banned and the southern end of North Gower Street is blocked off. Will you ask officers to look into the situation here as a matter of urgency and establish a safe way to allow traffic to access Drummond Street?

Delancey Street NW1

  • Reference: 2020/3447
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
Delancey Street in Regents Park ward, Camden, has been suffering from transport problems for some years now. The current problem is the large number of HGVs using this road as a way to bypass heavy traffic on the Euston Road. The Council are putting a LTO in place to stop rat running on the streets around Delancey, but this will not stop the HGVs. Will you ask TfL to assist the council in implementing this?
