  • Improving River Services – an Update Report February 2012
    Transport Committee Improving river services – an update report February 2012 Six years ago we highlighted the limited use of the river to transport people. Our report London’s Forgotten Highway (October 2006) set out the main barriers to expanding river services and recommended solutions to increase the number of Londoners using the river to make regular journeys. At present there are river bus services between Blackfriars Millennium Pier and Woolwich Arsenal Pier operated by Thames Clippers and between Putney Pier and Blackfriars Millennium Pier operated by Complete Pleasure Boats. In addition, there are various leisure or river tour services operated by different companies. All river services are overseen by Transport for London (TfL) ’s London River Services (LRS) whose activities include coordinating river services with the wider public transport network and managing eight piers,1 out of a total 33 piers.2 The Mayor has pledged to increase the use of river transport significantly. In early 2010, he committed to work towards a target of 12 million river passenger trips per year3 or more than double the current annual number of trips.4 This followed the publication in April 2009 of the Mayor’s River Concordat, a voluntary agreement between more than 40 organisations to work together to develop river services.5 In his Transport Strategy, the Mayor set out specific proposals to use the Concordat to develop river services and to encourage the provision of more pier capacity particularly in central London.6 In light of our past work and the Mayor’s pledge, we have checked on progress in improving river services.
