  • 21 October 2009 Board Meeting
    AGENDA ITEM 4 TRANSPORT FOR LONDON BOARD SUBJECT: COMMISSIONER’S REPORT DATE: 21 OCTOBER 2009 INTRODUCTION This report provides an overview of major issues and developments since the Board meeting on 29 July and updates the Board on significant projects and initiatives. An overview of progress toward the delivery of key Mayoral transport priorities is provided as an appendix. 1 MAKING TFL MORE EFFICIENT A top priority for the Mayor has been to cut further TfL’s costs in order to help protect front line services and maintain the huge investment being made to improve London’s transport system. TfL management and staff have responded with great focus and determination and there will continue to be a relentless focus on delivering clear value for fare and tax payers’ money. This is vital given the intense pressure on TfL’s finances as a result of a fall in ridership on the Tube caused by the economic downturn (190,000 fewer journeys a day), the disastrous collapse of Metronet and the fares policies of the previous Mayor. As a result of this, over the next nine years TfL is delivering savings of over £5 billion through reductions in back office functions, organisational restructuring, more efficient operational arrangements and better deals with suppliers. This includes a 27 per cent reduction in TfL's non-operational overheads by 2012 when compared with today's levels. Specific examples of where these savings are being made are as follows (all figures are total savings made over the TfL Business Plan period to 2017/18): • Role reductions:
