mytaxi (1)

  • Reference: 2018/1125
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 17 May 2018
A constituent has approached me with the following question that he would like you to directly answer. Can a taxi driver charge more than the metered fare when undertaking an instant hiring on the mytaxi app when the start finish destinations are both in the GLA area? If the answer is no, do you agree that an instant hiring on the mytaxi app is simply an extension of mytaxi plying for hire?

Changes to Holloway Road

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 17 May 2018
Although TfL is undertaking post-scheme traffic counts following the Archway scheme, the roads covered are just a fraction of the list of streets for traffic counts suggested by the Highgate Society. Please set out the reasons for TfL rejecting the proposal to carry out more post-scheme traffic counts on roads in Camden, Haringey and Islington? Will you review this decision so that a fuller picture of the impact of the scheme can be developed?
