Grafton Way air pollution

  • Reference: 2016/2115
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 22 June 2016
At the moment taxis have to drive below residential windows in Grafton Way, Euston because they cannot go straight ahead, unless they want to drive down the underpass onto the Westway. This means that taxis and other vehicles queue below residential windows throughout the day which is very bad for the health of those who live there, especially those who work from home. Camden Council monitored NO2 here last year resulting in readings well over the EU legal limit. There are no residents on Euston Road where the bus lane is, only the hospital which has air filtration unlike Grafton...

Pedestrianisation of Oxford Street

  • Reference: 2016/2114
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 22 June 2016
Plans to pedestrianise Oxford Street are contentious with residents north and south of Oxford Street who are concerned as to where the many buses will go and the risk of their displacement down smaller residential streets. Will you consider a range of other actions to improve air quality and increase safety such as phasing out diesel buses from routes that travel along Oxford Street, widening pavements and getting rid of street clutter, pedestrianising the side streets wherever practical and allowing cafes to set up and banning pedicabs?

Bus route 13

  • Reference: 2016/2113
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 22 June 2016
Following a consultation during March and April 2015, TfL decided not to progress any further with our proposals for changes to routes 13, 82, 113, 139 and 189 on Finchley Rd. However, they are intending to launch a new consultation in June 2016 on different proposals which include routes 13, 82, 113, 139 and 189. In view of the enormous opposition to the removal of route 13, will you confirm that route 13 is safe with you?

Wandsworth Council's proposals for a Nine Elms bridge

  • Reference: 2016/2112
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 22 June 2016
Are you aware of the opposition to this proposal from the residents of Pimlico on the Westminster side of the river and their Councillors, who do not see any need for a bridge and see it as a highly expensive vanity project as Chelsea Bridge and Vauxhall Bridge are nearby, and two new tube stations are being built. Will you indicate to Wandsworth Council that this proposal does not have your support?
