The Mayor’s transport policies under scrutiny

Healthy transport
Created on
06 February 2019
  • The launch of Crossrail has been delayed and is not expected to take place until 2020. Questions remain about the governance and management of the scheme and implications of the delay.

  • TfL is reforming London’s bus network, but are reductions in central London provision being matched by increases in outer London?

  • Congestion on London’s roads has been a growing problem for a number of years and it is not clear what effect the Mayor’s efforts to address this problem have had.

  • TfL’s primary objective is to create Healthy Streets and deliver a radical shift toward active travel and public transport. However, it is unclear how this shift will be achieved and what the plans for new cycling infrastructure are.

Tomorrow, the London Assembly will discuss the development and delivery of the Mayor’s strategic transport priorities. The guests are:

Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London and Chair of Transport for London

Mike Brown MVO, Commissioner, Transport for London

Following this, Assembly Members will submit motions on various topics.

The meeting will take place on Thursday, 7 February from 10:00am in The Chamber at City Hall (The Queen’s Walk, London SE1).

Media and members of the public are invited to attend

The meeting can also be viewed LIVE via webcast or YouTube
