I have recently met constituents, and Thames Water, to discuss the impact of the Super Sewer on King Edward VIIs Memorial Park in Shadwell. While not opposing the sewer will you support the aim of residents and park users to either seek an alternative site and/or otherwise minimise the impact of works on the park?

A recent TfL press release (11/1/2011) states 'that cycle journeys have shot up to 100% during peak times on the first two Cycle Superhighways'. The A13 route from Barking is mainly segregated, saw an increase in the number of cyclists of over 100% when it became Cycle Superhighway 3, as compared to 50% for CS7 from Merton which is not segregated. Do you agree that these facts demonstrate that segregated cycle tracks are safer and more popular and will you, therefore, be prioritising segregated facilities on future highway routes?

Can you list the proposed closures for the next 12 months of the line through, and connecting Central London with, Dagenham Heathway, Dagenham East and Becontree Stations and for each occasion give a brief reason for the planned closure?

What progress has been made with minimising these closures and looking at alternatives, where these might be possible, as the perception is that TfL is almost careless as to the decision to close lines at weekends these days?

Are you happy that TfL have got the advance publicity, and alternative transport services, right? In my view this is often not the case and the approach needs to be regularly reviewed and refreshed for those occasions when closures are necessary.

Constituents and businesses in Dagenham continue to be frustrated by the continuing weekend closures on the District Line making travel from and to the area almost impossible. What are you going to do to ensure that works are better co-ordinated to avoid such weekend closures?

What impact does the Mayor believe increasing travel fares will have on car usage? Has an assessment been made regarding this by Transport for London? If so, what is the outcome?

Does the Mayor anticipate that the number of police officers will be more, less or the same at the end of the forthcoming Spending Review period (April 2015) as they are at the beginning (April 2011)? In your response, please differentiate between full-time police officers, Specials and Community Support Officers.
