  • Managing Director's Report
    Surface Transport Panel Date: 30 October 2014 Item 5: Managing Director’s Report This report will be considered in public 1 Summary 1.1 The purpose of this report is to update the Panel on Surface Transport’s performance for Periods 3, 4, 5 and 6 in 2014/15 (26 May 2014 to 14 September 2014) and to provide an overview of recent major issues and developments within Surface Transport. 2 Recommendation 2.1 The Panel is asked to note the report. 3 Delivery Buses Bus Network Performance: Bus Passenger Journeys 1 3.1 Year to date passenger journeys are 10.7 million or one per cent lower than budget. Fare paying passenger journeys are one million or 0.1 per cent above budget, with non-fare passenger journeys 11.8 million or 3.2 per cent below budget. 3.2 The non-fare paying passenger journey reductions are mostly due to the 11-15 year old and 16+ passenger journeys. It has been discovered using the Greater London Bus Passenger Survey (GLBPS) that our previous information on the level of Oyster card validation when boarding a bus was not realistic. This has left an artificially high target that has not been met. 3.3 In Periods 3, 5 and 6 (2014/15) Bus Passenger Journeys were higher than the same periods in 2013/14. Journeys in period 4 were adversely affected by the public sector strike day and the Tour de France. 3.4 Underlying Total Passenger Journey YTD growth (incorporating the validation issue above and seasonal effects) is 1.8 per cent comprising fare paying and non-fare paying passenger journey growth of 2.0 and 1.6 per cent respectively.

  • Highbury Corner for Pedestrians and Cyclists, and on Changes to Bus Services
    HHHighburyghbury Corner Response to issues raised Corner Response to March 2018 issues raised March 2018 1 Executive Summary Between 5 February and 20 March 2016 TfL and Islington Council consulted jointly on proposed improvements to Highbury Corner for pedestrians and cyclists, and on changes to bus services. In August 2016 we published a report which summarised the consultation process and the responses we received. This new report provides our response to the issues commonly raised during the consultation and explains the changes to the scheme we plan to make as a result. Overall responses to consultation We received 2,823 responses to the consultation. The overall responses show that the majority of respondents believed the new road layout proposals for Highbury Corner would: • Improve conditions for pedestrians (71%) • Improve conditions for cyclists (67%) • Improve conditions for tube/rail passengers (59%) • Make conditions worse for motorists (35%) • Make conditions worse for bus passengers (33%) When asked to select a preference for the proposed new public space: • 14% chose Option 1 (keep the arboretum closed to the public) • 56% chose Option 2 (open up the arboretum for public use) • 17% didn’t want either option • 13% did not answer the question Some of the main issues raised were: • Supportive comments that the changes would create a safer environment for pedestrians and cyclists • Concerns that the proposals would lead to increased traffic congestion and longer journey times for motor traffic • Concerns regarding the impacts of proposed changes to bus route 277 How we intend to proceed Having considered the feedback to the consultation, and subject to approvals, we intend to proceed with the changes to Highbury Corner, with some changes to what was proposed at the last consultation in 2016.
