World Health Organisation's support for 20 mph speed limits

  • Reference: 2017/3031
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 10 August 2017
In its recent report 'Managing Speed' the World Health Organisation (WHO) endorses a 20 mph speed limit as best practice where motorised traffic mixes with pedestrians and cyclists. Will you therefore set out a timetable for how you, through the boroughs and Transport for London, will introduce lower speed limits, as per proposal nine of your draft Transport Strategy?

London Mass Evacuation Protocol - taxis

  • Reference: 2017/3030
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 10 August 2017
The response to my question 2016/2838 refers to a specific action within the London Mass Evacuation Protocol for Transport for London (TfL) to consider the use of taxis and private hire vehicles to transport casualties to accident and emergency departments in the event of major incidents. Taxi drivers report not having received any information about how this might work in practice. Were they ever informed about this action and if so, how? If not, how will you now inform them about it?
