Security barriers on Blackfriars Bridge

  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
I have received reports of significant bottlenecks of pedestrians and cyclists developing at the north end of Blackfriars Bridge as a result of the recently-installed security barriers.

Exhibition space in London

London City Airport - noise complaints

  • Reference: 2017/2794
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
According to London City Airport's statistics, presented to its Consultative Committee, since City Airport introduced concentrated flight paths, noise complaints from residents have increased four-fold in 2016, compared with the previous year. Will you press London City Airport to review their concentrated flight paths and clarify the steps they are taking to guarantee communities a break from aviation noise?

Engine idling - Midland Road taxi rank

  • Reference: 2017/2793
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
A constituent has witnessed repeated incidents of black taxis leaving their engines running while queuing at the Midland Road pick-up rank to the west of St Pancras International station. Will you ask Transport for London (TfL) compliance officers to work closely with the local authority in Camden to reduce this problem?

Engine idling

  • Reference: 2017/2792
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
In response to question 2016/4055 you said that the "current regulations do not allow for effective enforcement against idling, because they require the enforcement officer to provide advance warning to the driver and even after that the fine is only £20. Boroughs have found that enforcement is therefore ineffective…" What is the Government's response to your call for "stronger enforcement powers for local authorities"?

  • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
In your response to my question 2017/0487 you said that by January 2018 your aim was to have at least 70 rapid charging points for electric vehicles fully operational. What are your current projections for fully operational charging points and how many of these will be dedicated for taxis? Can you provide location details, broken down by borough and indicating which are for taxis?
