  • Real Time Announcements London Underground (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 23 February 2005
    On any station that is receiving an improvement through the PPP, is there an audit of all the things that are promised in the upgrade, that they are delivered and implemented and operated? My concern is they do not get paid.
  • Real Time Announcements London Underground (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 23 February 2005
    If that option was available. One of the issues brought to attention is the difficulty of deaf and hard of hearing people when announcements are made at the last minute and so they have no opportunity to adjust their behaviour whether it is a cancellation or to catch a train. I did not understand within your answer whether anything had actually arrived that would change that situation. It seemed to me from what you were saying that the technology is now available in dot matrix form, but that clearly is not the experience of people. Therefore, when there is a...
  • Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 23 February 2005
    As you know, I first worked on the feasibility of Crossrail 25 years ago. I get a sense of déjà vu about Crossrail, and of course totally welcome the fact that the Bill is finally in Parliament. I wanted to test out - because we have been here before - the funding that needs to follow. Could you just clarify and quantify how much the Government have told you they are going to give, and have you got it in writing? I am sorry, but I am cynical.

  • Congestion Charge Increase (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone

    Do you not think that the lack of consistency in your figures will give rise to concern amongst credit rating agencies who do have a valid interest in your ability to get answers right?
  • Congestion Charge Increase (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 23 February 2005
    You know, originally you said that 15% was the optimum reduction to make London work and that would benefit congestion or travel times across London and redress the £2 million a week that it was costing businesses then. For someone like myself who actually believes it is a mechanism about pricing demand and should only be brought into play to price that demand when demand is rising, I think we just have to disagree on that. Given that you are going to make this charge, together with bus fares and Congestion Charges put together, you might get about £185 million...
