  • Peckham Square (1)

    • Reference: 2017/4315
    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 16 November 2017
    Transport for London (TfL) has raised concerns about "reducing pedestrian circulation space at such a critical, central location" and inadequate cycling facilities arising from Southwark Council's planning application (reference 16/AP/3075) to build on Peckham Square. In light of another recent pedestrian fatality, will you call on the borough to suspend issuing planning permission until there is an independent review of space required to provide for a significant increase in walking and cycling at that location?

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 16 November 2017
    Future increases in walking and cycling, not least the cycle superhighway identified in the London Plan for Peckham High Street, and space that might be required for this, should have been considered in Southwark council's Peckham Square plans. Why did the comments and observations from Transport for London (TfL) on the Peckham Square planning application not highlight the applicant's failure to comply with the network management duty?

  • Revised road casualty data

    • Reference: 2017/4319
    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 16 November 2017
    To allow for comparisons of 2016 serious injury figures with previous years, Transport for London (TfL) and the Department for Transport (DfT) are working together to back-estimate the number of casualties that would have been reported by the police using an injury-defined rather than a severity-defined system. When and where will the estimates be published?
