  • Transport Infrastructure in Outer London (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2024
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Just briefly, Mr Mayor, you mentioned the phrase “step-free desert”, which is one I have used before in relation to Chiswick, a key area of London served by the Piccadilly line and the District line, but none of the stations there have step-free access. Just a quick plea, if you could ask your team to go and look at what they can do at those stations. I know that they are difficult stations, there is no easy solution to step-free access there, but an entire area of London is without step-free access, therefore could...

  • Question and Answer Session: Refugees in London (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2023
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning, panel. I have some questions around English language skills, so I imagine they will probably sit best with Tunde Olayinka. Through the Adult Education Budget (AEB), the GLA funds English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) provision for around 40,000 people in London at a cost of approximately £40 million. Do you know how many refugees are amongst that 40,000?

  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. Good morning, Commissioner. You talked about the Elizabeth line, and it is an absolutely fantastic piece of British engineering. I have really enjoyed travelling on it. It will make a huge difference, not just to London, but to the southeast and beyond. While we are all extremely happy that it is open, we cannot ignore the sometimes tortured journey that it took to get to that point. Do we have a clear picture, Mr Mayor, of the financial impact overall in terms of lost revenue and additional capital spending of the delay to...

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Mr Mayor, on page 98 of your Manifesto you promised to deliver a strategy for the suburbs. Could you please write to me outlining the progress you have made with that to date?

  • Closure of Tower Bridge

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2016
    When Tower Bridge is closed for maintenance for an extended period later this year, will you work with the Corporation to examine options to make the bridge more cyclist friendly by including a segregated cycle path and/or removal of the guard rails?

  • East-West Cycle Superhighway

    • Reference: 2016/1100
    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2016
    How will the new East-West Cycle Superhighway connect safely with CS3? When will the link be completed?

  • Electrification of the Barking - Gospel Oak Rail Route

    • Reference: 2016/1101
    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2016
    As the railway between Barking, Woodgrange Park and Forest Gate Junction is already electrified and will remain open while the rest of the route is closed for electrification, will London Overground continue to operate trains between Barking (platforms 1, 7 or 8) and Woodgrange Park where turn back facilities are already provided?

  • Electric Trains for Barking - Gospel Oak Service

    • Reference: 2016/1102
    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2016
    Could the Mayor please explain why it not viable to lease electric trains to fill the gap between the completion of the electrification and platform extension projects in mid 2017 and the arrival in passenger service of the new Class710 electric trains in April 2018? Class315 electric trains on TfL Rail duties will be replaced by new Crossrail Class345 trains from early 2017 and the Class315 trains are not currently designated for any further use. Could not the lease of ten of these Class315 trains be extended for 10-12 months to enable them to be transferred to the electrified Barkng...

  • London Air Quality Management

    • Reference: 2016/0181
    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 20 January 2016
    How will the proposed LAQM Framework impact on your ability, as Mayor, to tackle air pollution from marine craft and associated infrastructure?

  • Electric Trains for Barking - Gospel Oak Service

    • Reference: 2016/0182
    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 20 January 2016
    It is likely that Network Rail will complete the electrification of the Barking-Gospel Oak Service in early 2017 and yet TfL will not be able to put new electric trains on this route until at least April 2018. Will you support the wishes of my constituents, who will be passengers on this route, and ensure that TfL make plans to lease some electric trains they can deploy on this route so that passengers can benefit from the electrification without a long delay?
