In November 2017, the Government published a document entitled "Connecting people: a strategic vision for rail". On Rail Devolution the document says, "the Department will work with TfL to explore options for transferring selected services [from the Thameslink, Southern and Great Northern franchise] such as the West London line to TfL". How concerned are you that the Government's example is a line that already is part of the London Overground Network rather than a line that TfL does not currently run services on?

In November 2017, the Government published a document entitled "Connecting people: a strategic vision for rail". On Smart Ticketing the document says, "Pay as you go ticketing is already available on some commuter routes in the South East for rail-only journeys. By the end of 2018 we expect to see other parts of the network developing a similar service. The next step is then to secure interoperability between those operators and with locally-led multi-modal systems, including TfL". What discussions, if any, have the DfT had with TfL regarding interoperability of contactless travel systems?

In November 2017, the Government published a document entitled " Connecting people: a strategic vision for rail". On Crossrail 2 the document says, "We are therefore working with TfL and the Mayor of London, including through an independent review of funding and financing, to develop plans for an affordable scheme that is fair to the taxpayer, where London pays its share. Learning lessons from Crossrail 1 and maximising the benefits of the scheme will form a key part of this work". Please update me on the status of the work between the DfT and TfL?

The Summer Budget in 2015 said, "From 2020-21 the government will spend all of the revenue raised from Vehicle Excise Duty in England on the English Strategic Road Network". In July 2017, the Government said it planned to consult on creating a Major Road Network which would be eligible for some of this funding. They said, "The MRN would cover our busiest and most economically important local authority A roads". Do you believe that all TfL Roads should become part of this Major Road Network? Please give your reasons.
