Caroline Pidgeon: ...in October 2021 covered around the same number of homes as proposed in the potential extension in August 2023, and provision of public transport options is more scarce in some parts of outer London, do you accept that £60 million is only a baseline figure for a new scrappage scheme and may have to exceed that number in order to provide help to Londoners?
Caroline Pidgeon: Yes, we are seeing this huge rise in motorcycle delivery drivers, and they are having a huge impact on our high streets across London with motorcycles parked dangerously on pavements, engine idling, speeding bikes, litter and far worse, quite frankly, using estates and places as toilets. You could lead the way on this area, Mr Mayor, and it sounds like the discussions are starting. I really...
Caroline Pidgeon: London Boroughs are reliant on TfL for funding for their roads and transport infrastructure. The GLA Act (1999) does not devolve boroughs’ funding and there is currently a huge backlog of investment that is needed across the capital on borough roads. Given that transport funding in London is not a fully devolved matter, what are you doing to secure the funding needed for London’s borough...
Caroline Pidgeon: Please list dates and times for which each lift on the London Underground was out of service by month for (a) 2021 and (b) 2022.
Caroline Pidgeon: Please provide an update on work to introduce a companion travel pass in London.

Caroline Pidgeon: ...that the Met was in the process of establishing a Taser Independent Advisory Group. Please outline the timescale for the creation of this group and how you will be ensuring it is representative of London’s diverse range of communities.
Caroline Pidgeon: Given that Wapping Overground station isn’t step-free, the rerouting of the D3 bus route will result in the loss of the only step-free link between Wapping and the Royal London Hospital, with nine bus stops no longer being served by any route. Following a local campaign from residents, will you reconsider these changes, which are set to disproportionately affect disabled, older and...
Caroline Pidgeon: Given the importance of ease of interchange for older, disabled and mobility impaired Londoners, are the proposed changes in the Central London Bus Review, which may require passengers to either change bus twice or walk up to 500 metres to access other routes, complimentary to the aims set out in the Bus Action Plan to make the bus network more accessible and inclusive?
Caroline Pidgeon: What work are you undertaking with the Met to understand the prevalence of the grooming of young Londoners by criminal gangs and how are you ensuring grooming gangs are tackled effectively and robustly?
Caroline Pidgeon: ...police front counters and selling so many police stations during your period as Mayor has been how much easier it is to report crimes online.
