TfL has stated that the removal of the unwanted gyratory in Archway will cost around £7 to £9 million, and there simply isn't the money to do it. However, TfL has recently announced £7.6 billion in efficiency savings, almost 1000 times the amount needed to remove the gyratory. Given the huge safety and environmental concerns at this junction will you reconsider TfL's decision and reprioritise the removal of this gyratory for local residents in Archway?

When buses have to terminate their routes early for whatever reason, why is there an absence of any announcement from drivers about transfer tickets being available, which would allow people to continue their journeys without paying twice? Will you look into using the iBus technology to instruct passengers about how to transfer their tickets?

Streatham High Road has for some ten years been promised significant improvement in its traffic flows and aesthetic by removing and recasting the central reservation, new lane markings and street furniture. Only one phase has ever been completed and much of the High Road remains in need of serious attention to improve the area for residents and to attract new business and investment. Given that this scheme has been planned for years, why is a new concept study now required to complete it? Will you now review the decision to delay these vital improvements still further?

I have heard reports that the 0845 TfL busker phone line has long waiting times, and is costing buskers a lot of money just to get through. What are you doing to try to keep these costs to a minimum?

Further to MQ 3209/2010, you stated that fare evasion for 2009/2010 was £55.3 million, yet on the 18th March 2011 TfL issued a press release where you were quoted as saying the cost was almost £75 million. Please can you explain these two very different figures provided on fare evasion?
