  • Reference: 2020/1893
  • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
  • Meeting date: 18 June 2020
Can you reassure my constituents that TfL’s Lea Bridge Road Cycleways consultation will take their concerns about accessibility seriously, in an area that is poorly served by the overground and the tube?

Lea Bridge- Dalston Cycleway (2)

  • Reference: 2020/1892
  • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
  • Meeting date: 18 June 2020
With statistics showing that fewer women than men regularly cycle and fewer BAME people are regular cyclists, does the cycleway’s expansion have relevance only to a cohort? According to TfL, 13% of women sometimes use a bike to get around London with the remaining 87% never cycling as a mode of transport around London. The percentage of men who sometimes cycle to get around London is higher at 27%. White Londoners are more likely to cycle than those from ethnic minority groups. 23% of white Londoners cycle at least sometimes compared to 13% of BAME Londoners.

In response to MQ 2020/0473 you said “Transport for London (TfL) staff will advise customers to get a new Oyster card and add some credit to pay as you go so they can continue travelling. The customer should then contact TfL’s Customer Services who will arrange to transfer tickets/pay as you go credit from the broken card to the new one. In some limited cases, staff may be able to replace the card at the station.” I have previously detailed an example where this was not the case and a passenger was instead charged and threatened with court for travelling...
