I understand that the LDA is currently consulting on moving the cycling facility in Eastway to Rammy Marsh in Enfield for the Olympics. As part of this proposal the Lea Valley Authority would fund the site during the Games, but will have to withdraw funding afterwards, as it will take charge of a site in the Olympic village.

The fact that these stations are frequently unstaffed is not only inconvenient for passengers, but it leaves them feeling unsafe. Would you agree with me that this is an unacceptable level of service?

A constituent has complained to me about the P13 and 201 buses. She regularly tries to use these buses, alighting at the West Dulwich stop travelling towards Streatham, at about 3.45/4pm Monday - Friday. Her average wait, with a small child, is 30 minutes.
