Tube noise [5]

  • Reference: 2019/9220
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
Although noise may have been reduced slightly in some locations such as Finchley Central, it did not exist at all before the speed increases and northbound track upgrades. Why can Transport for London not return this noise to previous level?

Tube noise [4]

  • Reference: 2019/9219
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
How are Transport for London monitoring the effectiveness of lubrication installed on the tracks at Finchley Central? Residents still report that trains travelling along the corner near the station still screech. Can residents get direct or live visibility on noise measurements and lubricant application times?

Tube noise [3]

  • Reference: 2019/9218
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
Why have Transport for London refused to enable the friction modifier installed at Finchley Central? Have they ensured the noise will not get even worse when the southbound track is upgraded? If so, how? Is it written into the engineering contract to ensure this (unlike last time)?

Tube noise [2]

  • Reference: 2019/9217
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
In areas where residents are suffering excessive ground borne tube noise, reduction in train speeds have been shown to ameliorate significantly the noise they suffer. Will you now consider slowing trains outside rush hours, especially at weekends and with the night tube?

Tube noise [1]

  • Reference: 2019/9216
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
Tube noise has not been reduced sufficiently for a number of residents, who have suffered ground borne noise well in excess of 50Db, in some case for several years and in one case rendering the property uninhabitable. in such cases will you now consider compensating residents, if necessary buying their property?

West Hampstead Overground station

  • Reference: 2019/9215
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
The new West Hampstead Overground station is nearing completion. The construction design allows for the station to be completed with or without a ticket office. Residents are concerned that the station will lose its ticket office facility by default. Will you confirm that the ticket office will be provided in the new station?

School Air Quality Audits

  • Reference: 2019/9214
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
When will you be conducting your next set of school air quality audits? Will you consider undertaking one at Martin School in East Finchley, where air quality monitoring equipment was recently installed, and showed a reading of 46.2ug/m3, which is well above the legal limit set by the EU of 40ug/m3.?

Investigation of Aggravated and Motivated Hate Crime

  • Reference: 2019/9212
  • Question by: Unmesh Desai
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
My understanding is that aggravated hate crimes are dealt with by response officers and non- aggravated hate crimes/ motivated hate crimes will be investigated by officers working in Basic Command Unit Safeguarding Teams. Can you confirm that this is correct and provide some background about the different investigative processes for investigating hate crimes?
