Thank you for your recent answer to my question 2018/3075 from 22 November 2018.

Bus driver toilets programme completion

  • Reference: 2019/17408
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
I note the progress on bus driver toilet provision in the Bus Driver Facility Improvements report to the 4 September 2019 Safety, Sustainability and Human Resources Panel of Transport for London (TfL). It is stated that there is still one bus route without any toilet facilities at either terminus, and three bus routes with limited access to toilets and where the bus service continues beyond the opening hours of the available facilities. The report says that the aim is: "to have provided facilities on these routes by autumn 2019." In which month of Autumn 2019 will bus drivers working on...

Cuts to Community Road Watch funding

  • Reference: 2019/17407
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
A constituent has been told by their relevant Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) contact that: “there has been a big change in the way Community Road Watch (CRW) operates, which has been agreed between the Met Police and Transport for London (TfL) who fund the scheme. Until further notice the scheme will only be able to accommodate 2 watches per borough per month. Additionally, each session is only allowed to be between 30-45 minutes duration.” Your Vision Zero action plan said you would support local interventions including enforcement, so why are you cutting back Community Road Watch?

PCSO enforcement on CS2

  • Reference: 2019/17406
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
A constituent has raised concerns with me about a disproportionate focus on the behaviour of people cycling by Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) carrying out enforcement on cycle superhighway 2 (CS2). At the same time, this constituent has observed regular dangerous behaviour by people driving along this route, which has apparently gone unchecked. Given your Vision Zero strategy, what will you do to ensure enforcement is fair and proportionate to the danger posed?

  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
A constituent has raised concerns about the lack of toilet facilities at West Ham station. When will Transport for London (TfL) complete its London-wide review of toilet facilities and will the final conclusions be publicly shared?

Electric vehicle charging infrastructure guidance

  • Reference: 2019/17404
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
Your Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Taskforce Delivery Plan says that you will publish guidance on charge point installation for both the public and private sectors in 2019-20. Could you give a more specific timeframe for this urgently needed guidance?

Use of taxi charging points by other vehicles

  • Reference: 2019/17403
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
A constituent has raised concerns that electric vehicle (EV) charging points reserved for taxis are being used by other vehicles. What enforcement measures are Transport for London (TfL) taking to support the well-publicised provision of dedicated electric charging bays for the growing electric taxi fleet?

Peer outreach and Oyster cards

  • Reference: 2019/17402
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
It has been suggested that the need for members of your Peer Outreach Team to pay for work travel costs up-front represents a barrier to working in the team. Will you further support their valuable work by providing members of the team with a pre-loaded Oyster Card for work trips, or enabling one to be linked to a GLA payment card, to help with these expenses?

Borough trials to support your Transport Strategy

  • Reference: 2019/17401
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 12 September 2019
Campaigners have raised concerns with me that trials to support walking, cycling and reducing through traffic have been curtailed at short notice by councils, such as Tower Hamlets and Newham. Your Transport Strategy calls on boroughs to reduce traffic. How are you supporting boroughs to enable them to conduct and complete trials of schemes that will reduce London’s traffic?
