Transport for London monitoring of 'close pass' driving by London bus drivers

  • Reference: 2017/2196
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 22 June 2017
I asked Transport for London (TfL) how it records public complaints about 'close pass' driving by bus drivers. TfL said "All of the complaints we receive are given a code when logged, but there isn't a code this detailed so we cannot provide an exact number for you. The closest code we use is 'Driver - Poor / Dangerous Driving', which will not illustrate how many of the complaints relate to buses driving too close to cyclists." Will you ask TfL to introduce a new code so that it can record and monitor incidents of this type?

Online tool to report 'close pass' driving by London bus drivers

  • Reference: 2017/2195

  • Meeting date: 22 June 2017
I have received numerous reports of London bus drivers failing to leave enough space when passing cyclists. Will Transport for London (TfL) provide an online tool or an app where a date, time, location and route number can be entered by members of the public, with TfL following up once a driver has been reported a number of times?

Training for bus drivers on how to drive safely past cyclists

  • Reference: 2017/2194

As part of the In the Zone bus safety training module, how much space are bus drivers advised to leave cyclists they are passing on London's roads?

London Plan - cycle parking at rail stations

  • Reference: 2017/2193
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 22 June 2017
The London Plan states that cycle parking provision at stations is "to be considered on a case by case basis through liaison with Transport for London (TfL)." TfL are currently developing a portfolio of more than 50 station sites, and there is no provision for public cycle hubs. Will you ensure that TfL is compelled, through the next London Plan, to make such provision?

Thank you for your response to my question 2017/2071. Will you ensure from now on that the 'broad set of factors' Transport for London (TfL) bases its recommendations on includes 'injuries sustained in collisions with buses'?
