  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Shaun Bailey AM: Morning to our guests. Can I address my question to the Mayor? It has been reported in a number of places in the press that a supposed whistle-blower has talked about a metal box that could explode and cause the doors on the new Elizabeth line trains to fly off. Are you aware of these claims and how accurate are they?

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Krupesh Hirani
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Krupesh Hirani AM: My question is to the Mayor. I recently visited Oakington Manor School in my constituency, alongside the Leader of the Council, [Councillor] Muhammed Butt, and the Cabinet Member for the Environment, Councillor Krupa Sheth, who happens to be the Ward councillor for this area as well. It was to see first-hand how the School Streets scheme is helping children to walk, cycle and scoot to the school and, frankly, cross the road safely in front of the school gate. As we still have not seen a long-term capital funding deal announced by the Government for TfL, can...

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Caroline Russell AM: Commissioner, Crossrail has launched recently. I think we can all agree it is a great railway and it is great that it is fully accessible in the central section, but it should also be accessible to people who need to use a loo. Commissioner, when will you start retrofitting loos into all stations without toilets on the Elizabeth line?

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Marina Ahmad
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Marina Ahmad AM: Mr Mayor, what is your assessment of the impact that the cost of living is having or will have on TfL’s income?

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Neil Garratt
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Neil Garratt AM: Good morning. You might remember a couple of months ago you had an exchange with my colleague, Assembly Member Fortune, about the poorest Londoners owning cars in which you seemed to be incredulous that they would. Rather than have an exchange with you about that, I thought I would write to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), who very helpfully wrote to me. Its definition of the poorest Londoners, the lowest decile, is those earning, roughly, gross household income less than about £12,000 per year. Of those, the ONS says that about a quarter own cars and...

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Unmesh Desai AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor and Commissioner. Mr Mayor, how are you working with British Transport Police (BTP) and the Metropolitan Police Service’s Safer Transport Team to fight sexual harassment and misogyny on London’s transport network?

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Peter Fortune
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Peter Fortune AM: Thank you very much, Chair. Commissioner, can I add my congratulations to you as well on your leadership on the completion of the Elizabeth line? It is another feather in the cap of the Train Daddy, so congratulations. I want to focus in on questions about air quality because everybody is very keen to improve it when and how we can and in the most efficient way. Thinking back to the expansion to the North and South Circular [Roads], what work was done beforehand to benchmark or set targets for the amount of air quality improvement that...

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Leonie Cooper
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Léonie Cooper AM: I would like to continue to riff on the theme of the ULEZ and I would like to start with you, Commissioner. I know that we are out to consultation at the moment, so the shape of the scheme is not fully known to us yet, but I am assuming that there are now some discussions in progress with the DfT regarding the proposal to extend into outer London. I just wonder what kind of feedback you have had from the DfT on the plans for expansion. Has it expressed any views?

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Tony Devenish AM: Can I first ask Assembly Member Cooper not to attack people’s children, even if it is the Prime Minister? Mr Commissioner, good morning to you. Tube noise: this morning on the Jubilee line we measured 123 decibels passing Bermondsey. This is not a party-political issue and I do not want to make party-political points on this. We all want this to be sorted. Now, you have almost sorted the Elizabeth line. Are you going to be able to sort Tube noise, and how, please?

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Elly Baker
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Elly Baker AM: Hello again, Mr Mayor. We can all agree that reducing private car use in London would benefit London overall for congestion, air quality and climate reasons. What I am really interested in is how we can sustainably reduce car use and target journeys that can easily be switched to other modes of transport, recognising that some Londoners - whether it will be because of mobility, because of specific work reasons or for caring responsibilities - will find that much more difficult. Your ULEZ consultation says, “[...] it is important that the owners of those remaining vehicles that...
