No 18 bus route (1)

  • Reference: 2016/2957
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon

A constituent has raised concerns that the Number 18 buses fail to turn off their engines when stationary in Sudbury Town and contribute unnecessarily to air pollution.

Worcester Park has long suffered from heavy traffic due to its position on the busy A2043 Croydon - Sutton - Kingston corridor and as a feeder to the A3.

CR2 for Streatham

  • Reference: 2016/2955
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
With Heathrow set by 2018 to have another rapid rail link to central London, due to the spur line off the Elizabeth Line, will you consider the need for similar transport improvements to serve Gatwick that could be delivered by Crossrail 2 forking from Clapham Junction? Will you consider the merits such a spur line would generate in terms of encouraging more people to travel to Gatwick by rail rather than road as well as the significant economic opportunities for south London?

Weekly cap on Oyster Pay As You Go

  • Reference: 2016/2954
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
In a letter I received from the previous Mayor dated the 31st July 2013 (ref MGLA260613-9919) it was stated by Boris Johnson that TfL would introduce weekly capping on Oyster Pay As You Go in 2015. Are you concerned that this pledge was not met and will you make a commitment to finally ensure that Oyster cards offer exactly the same benefits to passengers as contactless payments?

Publication of fares advice

  • Reference: 2016/2953
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
Following the Information Commission ruling that the public interest in seeing how the annual fares decision is made outweighs the right to confidential advice, will you now publish in full the fares advice you received from TfL before your fare announcement of the 8th June?

  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
In October 2015 TfL’s Transparency Strategy Consultation report stated “We will publish online all our replies to Freedom of Information requests.

Transparency of Garden Bridge Trust (2)

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
Further to your repeated statement that you are determined to run the most open and transparent administration London has ever seen, do you consider it appropriate for TfL to be co-operating with the Garden Bridge Trust that at present has raised significant amounts from Trusts, companies and individuals that at present wish to remain anonymous? Considering the public investment that has already been contributed to the project to lever in private fundraising do you agree that Londoners are entitled to have full details of all major contributors to the Garden Bridge Trust?
