Balham Park Road

  • Reference: 2020/3265
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
I have recently been contacted by a blind resident who highlights that Balham Park Road was recently made one way, leading onto Balham High Road. My constituent crosses at this junction frequently on the tactile crossing and despite the one-way system cars are continuing to breach this restriction. What steps are TfL taking to address this safety issue? Will cameras be considered to challenge dangerous driving in this location?

Pedestrian fatalities

  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
The most recent published statistics show that in 2019 there were 68 people killed while walking on London's roads, up from 57 in 2018. What assurances can be given that these statistics will be turned around in 2020 and subsequent years?

Noise camera technology

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
Does TfL have any plans to implement noise camera technology on sections of TfL controlled roads where noise complaints from traffic are a regular occurrence?

Bakerloo Line extension

  • Reference: 2020/3262
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
TfL’s website provided an update on 7 April 2020 relating to the latest consultation on the extension of the Bakerloo Line stating “We recently consulted on our proposals to extend the Bakerloo line beyond Elephant & Castle to Lewisham, serving Old Kent Road and New Cross Gate. We also sought to understand the level of support for a further extension beyond Lewisham to Hayes and Beckenham Junction. Thank you to all those who took part. We are considering all the consultation responses we received. We will publish our analysis of the consultation and our response to issues raised later this...

Use of electric scooters in dedicated cycle lanes

  • Reference: 2020/3261
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
Electric scooters are currently not legally permitted in dedicated cycle lanes. What steps are being taken to address what many people would consider a legal anomaly? Should ending this anomaly be a far higher priority than trials to allow electric scooters to be used on roads?

London bridges and tunnels

  • Reference: 2020/3260
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
Are you content with the overall inspection, monitoring, collection of information and long-term investment plans for all of the bridges and tunnels that cross the Thames in the Greater London Authority area? Is sufficient information about the state of all these crossings being published and made accessible to the public?

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
While accepting the need for some redactions, will you publish the contract with Capita for the enforcement of the extension of the Ultra Low Emission Zone?

Possible correlation between Covid cases and the London Underground

  • Reference: 2020/3258
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
Recent mapping of Covid cases in London shows an overlap with London Underground lines. While recognising there might be many reasons for explaining the overlap, is any investigation being undertaken into whether Tube journeys and changes at Tube stations might be a contributory factor to the number of Covid cases in specific boroughs?

Thames cable car

  • Reference: 2020/3257
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 15 October 2020
The previous Mayor announced on the 7 October 2011 a ten-year sponsorship deal for the Thames cable car. Since the commencement of the cable car passenger numbers have been dismal after its temporary popularity during the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Ahead of the renewal of any sponsorship deal will you make a commitment to a totally different ticket pricing policy which actually encourages people to use it on a regular basis, such as charging regular users no more than a bus fare. Do you further accept that running the cable car as a form of public transport and not...
