Thank you for your answer to my question 2024/3249, in which you said: “TfL is also developing new infrastructure to re-time and optimise traffic signals to improve overall throughput of traffic which will benefit bus services.” Could you tell me: a) how will you prioritise bus traffic over general traffic at these optimised traffic signals to ensure you comply with the road user hierarchy in your Mayor’s Transport Strategy (MTS); b) how will you ensure that these traffic signals do not provide any extra capacity to private motor traffic; c) will any of these signals be optimised to provide bus...

Thank you for your answer to my question 2024/1913, on working with London boroughs to update non-compliant bus stop bypasses in which you said: “For sites on the Transport for London (TfL) Road Network, design work has started.

A constituent has raised that many discounts such as railcards rely on use of a physical Oyster card and cannot be linked to contactless payment and therefore to mobile payments like Apple Pay on the Transport for London (TfL) network. Does TfL have plans to make Oyster available digitally or to allow the linking of railcard discounts to contactless cards to enable a more seamless experience for passengers with railcards using mobile payment? Could you provide timescales for this work?
