    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 19 December 2019
    Your response to Question (2019/17739) addressed the issue of TfL’s response to Tube noise.

    • Reference: 2019/21001
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 19 December 2019
    The performance of TfL in dealing with tube noise, from my experience of local casework, is patchy. One of my residents has said to me “I am awaiting an update regarding the intrusive noise on the part of the Jubilee Line known as The Kingsbury Curve. This issue is now almost six months old, and we seem to be no nearer to getting the noise reduced.” I accept that measures for such problems are complex. However, how can TfL improve its performance so that it retains trust of residents and that the issues are dealt with in a timely manner?
