  • Silvertown Tunnel Follow Up (10)

    • Reference: 2024/0930
    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 15 March 2024
    Re my question 2024/0527: You state: 'The Silvertown Tunnel scheme, including the user charge and new zero emission bus network, has been designed to ensure that there is no material impact in the number of vehicle trips across the river.' Can you please confirm that this is in fact incorrect, and that opening the Silvertown Tunnel, whether or not it is tolled, and whether or not zero emission buses are used, always substantially increases cross-river traffic, and local pollution, and carbon emissions, compared to an otherwise identical situation in which Silvertown is not opened to general traffic?

  • Silvertown Tunnel Follow Up (5)

    • Reference: 2024/0925
    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 15 March 2024
    The proposed toll on Blackwall and opening the Silvertown Tunnel to general traffic (with or without a toll) are two separate schemes that can be implemented either independently or together. Given the urgency of action on climate and air pollution it is therefore vital for us to understand how each scheme contributes independently to air pollution and climate targets, as well as how they might work together i) Can you provide (in tonnes/year) the reduction in CO2 emissions and PM and NOX pollution that will be achieved by tolling the Blackwall tunnel to effectively relieve regular congestion on the tunnel...
  • Silvertown Tunnel Follow Up (7)

    • Reference: 2024/0927
    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 15 March 2024
    Re my question: 2024/0525: The proposed toll on Blackwall and opening the Silvertown Tunnel to general traffic (with or without a toll) are two separate schemes that can be implemented either independently or together - and, given the legal structure of the project, future London Mayors will have a choice of whether to implement either or both. It is therefore important to understand the disaggregated economic consequences of these choices. Can you therefore use the same methodology you have used to calculate the benefits of both schemes together to also calculate: i) The economic benefit of just tolling Blackwall to...

  • Taxi or Private Hire Driving Disqualification.

    • Reference: 2024/0450
    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 22 February 2024
    Transport for London has a policy to add a 6 month punishment on top of a driving disqualification imposed by the courts for taxi or private hire drivers for amassing 12 penalty points from the totting-up procedure. In cases where the courts allow a taxi or private hire driver to keep their driving licence, I understand that it is TfL’s policy to ignore successful court pleadings of hardship and keep in place the additional civil punishment, meaning they still revoke the taxi or private hire licence. Will you ask TfL to consider alternative options such as introducing 6-month probationary licences...

    Back in 2016, this site was identified as a site that could deliver 120 new homes. The current plan provides for about 35 one-to three-bed homes. Is this really the best outcome and do you think this is good enough?

    • Meeting date: 22 February 2024
    This development site also includes a key “Archaeology Priority Zone” with some of the largest Roman architectural remains found in London. Residents have raised concerns that TfL and its partners have evaded the “Retain in Situ” obligations. Are you confident that TfL and its property company have appropriately managed the archaeology, heritage and the cultural value of this site?
