Broadband as the Fourth Utility

  • Reference: 2017/2983
  • Question by: Navin Shah

London's broadband is unfit for a global city. What are the Mayor's views on the UK system of broadband provision and how can the GLA, through funding, the London Plan and its Chief Digital Officer, achieve a step-change in delivering super-fast fibre, and how can the Mayor ensure existing communities benefit from faster speeds as a result of new housebuilding and large-scale regeneration?

I understand that the number of complaints about noise form passing tube trains has gone up considerably since 2012. Night tube service seems to have worsened the problem.

  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
What progress has been made to implement step-free access agreed with me last year? I'm worried about the deafening silence from TfL! Having lobbied the previous mayor for 8 years and having funding granted by the current Mayor I don't want to see the scheme falter.

Alperton Station: Regeneration

  • Reference: 2017/2980
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
At a recent joint site visit with Brent Council and the GLA to look at regeneration of high streets I noticed that TfL owned units at the station are still not let? What is the reason for this? These have been vacant for a couple of years. What is the timetable for their occupancy? Can you also let me know why refurbishment plans to revamp the station forecourt have fallen through? Has TfL's partnership work with Brent Council for regeneration failed? Why?

Ealing Road including the site of Alperton Station is part of Brent's plans to regenerate the area. The overbridge acts as a gateway to the Ealing Road. Can TfL take urgent measures to clean up and restore the overbridge which is an eyesore?

Bakerloo Line: Carriages

  • Reference: 2017/2978
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
I get regular complaints from my Brent and Harrow constituents about the poor state of carriages which are old and in dire need of replacement. We have been patient and waited long enough. Can you let me know what your timetable is for a complete refurbishment/upgrade of Bakerloo line trains as part of TfL's refit programme?
