    Are you satisfied with the level of consultation TfL is undertaking with pensioner groups and disabled people over the creation of cycle routes that bypass bus stops?

  • CIRAS, coaches and TfL

    • Reference: 2016/0372
    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    In response to question 2015/4220 (CIRAS introduction for coaches operating in London) the Mayor said: "TfL has limited jurisdiction over coaches operating in London.

The only area the legislation says a condition can't be attached to an LSP...

Given London's very large and ever-increasing population and given relatively low take up rates of cycling among women and black and minority ethnic groups, surely there is room for improvement on this front. What new measures could TfL take to increase public awareness of the training and to encourage higher levels of...

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    The Department for Transport runs a series of Think! campaign videos about road safety. Would TfL look into emulating this approach for cycling safety? It could be aimed at both motorists and cyclists.
