Will your proposed Brent Cross gyratory (the junction of the A5, A406 and M1) meet the objectives of an improved streetscape environment and air quality, rather than any increase in traffic capacity and if this is not the case what will it achieve instead and do you think that this will be desirable? Are there published aims and metrics against which the impact of the completed scheme can be measured in the future?

In response to my question 2014/3579 you stated there were an estimated 500,000 people attempting to see the fireworks in 2013 and it was claimed that there has been a consistent increase in numbers attending the New Year's Eve fireworks, yet in answer to a previous Mayoral Question it was stated that in 2007 "The number of people estimated to be in central London for the fireworks on New Year's Eve was 700,000." (Mayoral Question 2008/0291). How do you explain these differing figures?

In a letter you sent me, dated the 31st July 2013, and with the reference number MGLA260613 - 9919 you stated "If existing Oyster pay as you go users would like access to weekly prices but do not want to use, or do not have access to, contactless payment cards, then they can continue to use their Oyster cards and buy a 7-day bus or Travelcard until we introduce weekly capping on Oyster pay as you go in 2015." Can you provide an exact date in 2015 when a weekly cap on Oyster pay as you go will commence.
