Orbital Rail

  • Reference: 2012/0023-1
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Do you acknowledge the benefits of deflecting demand away from central London-bound journeys, into orbital and contra-flow radial journeys? What steps are you taking, regarding your promise to build orbital extensions to Croydon trams and the DLR, to meet at Bromley North, for instance?

Oyster LED Displays

  • Reference: 2012/0022-1
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
How old are the earliest current Oyster gates at stations, and what is their predicted lifespan? Do you accept that many of the green and red LED displays have degraded so much it is sometimes impossible to see if they are entry or exit gates? When will you upgrade the displays?

TfL maps

  • Reference: 2012/0021-1
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
There are published maps of both London Underground and London Rail lines, with detailed predicted levels of passenger congestion, which inform the democratic debate about reducing congestion. Would you agree to publish and maintain equivalently-detailed maps of under-use of existing London rail transport corridors, compared to their estimated maximum passenger capacity (whatever the current train service), which could contribute to discussions about population increases in London?

'Reforming our Railways' - the future of London's railways

  • Reference: 2012/0020-1
  • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Which rail franchises for services covering the Greater London area do TfL have plans to bid for?

Accessibility of public transport during the games

  • Reference: 2012/0019-1
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Encouraging people to use sustainable transport during the games will not necessarily help the considerable numbers of people with reduced mobility, particularly if there is still overcrowding and the potential for stations to be closed or for there to be considerable delays as a result of overcrowding. What measures are TfL taking to ensure that people with reduced mobility can still access public transport during the games and what advice are they giving staff in relation to assistance to people with reduced mobility should severe issues occur during the games?

Measuring success of campaign on sustainable forms

  • Reference: 2012/0018-1
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Considerable effort is currently being put in to encouraging both spectators and Londoners to walk, cycle and use alternative sustainable forms of transport during the games. This will potentially have both a benefit in relation to anticipated overcrowding on public transport and in relation to health. How is TfL planning to measure and review the success of these efforts and are there plans - if the efforts are successful - to follow up the campaign with putting increased resources in to encouraging cycling and walking longer term?

Henly's Corner

  • Reference: 2012/0017-1
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Will the Mayor review the layout of Henly's Corner to improve safety for cyclists?

Cycle Safety

  • Reference: 2012/0016-1
  • Question by: Joanne McCartney
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Can you please update me as to the roll-out of Trixi mirrors on the TLRN? What action is Transport for London taking to encourage or assist London Boroughs to fit Trixi mirrors on their road networks?

Crossrail Accessible Toilets

  • Reference: 2012/0015-1
  • Question by: Joanne McCartney
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Having led the London Assembly's initial investigation into public toilet provision in London I am dismayed that there will be Crossrail stations without fully accessible toilet provision. What steps are you taking to ensure that all stations have toilet facilities and that those facilities are fully accessible to disabled Londoners?

Piccadilly Line Upgrade

  • Reference: 2012/0014-1
  • Question by: Joanne McCartney
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
Are you able to give me any clearer indication as to when the promised Piccadilly Line upgrade will commence? What work are you doing to ensure the necessary funding for this needed scheme is in place?
