Bus driver behaviour (1)

  • Reference: 2012/0731
  • Question by: Steve O'Connell
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2012
Croydon Mobility Forum has reported a declining attitude of bus drivers towards the disabled and a lack of willingness to help them access public transport. Please advise how many bus drivers in each of the last five years have been disciplined for the attitude towards the disabled and how many have been sacked for such failures?

A23 pedestrian crossing (2)

  • Reference: 2012/0730
  • Question by: Steve O'Connell
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2012
TfL also argues that the A23 crossing is not used enough and hampers traffic flow. Residents are very much against its removal as the next crossing at Croydon Road involves several sections, is on hill that is difficult for the less mobile and has a blind corner approaching it from one side. Will you instruct TfL to cancel this plan?

A23 pedestrian crossing (1)

  • Question by: Steve O'Connell
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2012
TfL has recently consulted on removing a crossing at the junction of Waddon Park Avenue in favour of an unofficial crossing across this major road. Is it sensible or safe to remove a crossing in favour of an unofficial one that still has the markings but not the red lights to stop traffic?

  • Question by: Steve O'Connell
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2012
Following the riots in August that severely affected Broad Green there is a lot of local support for an overt police base on London Road. What options are there for the MPS achieving this goal and how can it be progressed?

Suburban Rail

  • Question by: Steve O'Connell

  • Reference: 2012/0724
  • Question by: Steve O'Connell
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2012
