Croydon Tramlink

  • Reference: 2017/3056
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 10 August 2017
In answer to MQ 2016/4509 you responded that Croydon Tramlink, the TfL owner of the tram infrastructure, is a member of the UK's long-established transport safety scheme CIRAS. However, it would appear from press reports that Firstgroup Tram Operations Limited-the holder of the 30 year Tram Operations Contract for the Croydon Tram-is not subscribed to CIRAS but instead to EthicsPoint. What confidence do you have that Firstgroup has put in place a confidential safety reporting system that is specifically suitable for the tram in London?
