In February 2018 in answer to Question 2018/0334 you stated: "Based on the latest programme that Transport for London has received from the borough, it is anticipated that main construction will start on site in Autumn 2019."

Comments by the Managing Director of Go-Ahead about protected cycling lanes

  • Reference: 2018/2989
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 22 November 2018
In a recent interview with www.Onlondon.co.uk website John Trayner, the managing director of Go-Ahead London is quoted as blaming congestion in London in part on protected cycling lanes. Are you concerned that, given (a) protected cycling lanes only constitute 0.2% of London's road network and (b) TfL data shows buses and coaches hold the highest KSI risk for cycling in London, that the Managing Director of TfL's biggest bus contractor can voice such misinformed views about cycling and cyclists in London?
