Route 235 Extension to GWQ Consultation Consultation on proposal to extend route 235 Consultation Report October 2013 Contents Section Page(s) 1 Introduction 2 2 The consultation 2 3 Responses from members of the public 4 4 Responses from statutory bodies and other 8 stakeholders Appendices A Copy of the consultation leaflet and consultation map 9-10 B Leaflet distribution area 1 1 C List of stakeholders consulted 12-13 1 1 Introduction Transport for London (TfL) recently consulted stakeholders and the public on a proposed extension of route 235 to Brentford, Great West Quarter (GWQ). The consultation took place between 4 July and 9 August 2013. TfL has been working with the London Borough of Hounslow to provide an accessible bus service for residents, businesses in the GWQ who are currently remote from the bus network. This report details responses received and will contribute to the decision on whether to go ahead with the proposed scheme or not. All views will be considered in the decision making process. 2 The consultation The consultation was designed to enable TfL to: • Raise general awareness of the scheme with local residents, stakeholders and the public • Explain the proposed changes • Provide the opportunity for people to contact us with their feedback about the proposals • Highlight any opposition by clearly stating the benefits of the proposed options • State what decisions have already been taken • Include details of any studies that have been carried out The potential outcomes of the consultation were: • Decide the consultation raises no issues that should prevent us from proceeding with the scheme as originally planned. • Modify the scheme in response to issues raised in consultation • Abandon the scheme as a result of issues raised in the consultation. 2.1 Consultation objectives The objectives of the consultation were: • To give stakeholders and the public easily-understandable information about the proposals and allow them to respond • To understand the level of support or opposition for the change • To understand any issues that might affect the proposal of which we were not previously aware • To understand concerns and objections • To allow respondents to make suggestions. 2 2.2 Who we consulted This public consultation intended to seek the views of people who live near to the proposed route, residents in the GWQ, current users of the service and other potential users. Stakeholders were also consulted including, the affected Councils, traffic police, London TravelWatch, Members of Parliament, Assembly Members and local interest groups and local schools. A list of the stakeholders we consulted is shown in Appendix C and a summary of their responses is given in Section 4. 2.3 Consultation material, distribution and publicity A leaflet was produced explaining the proposed re-route. This was distributed to approximately 1,400 local residents and local businesses. A copy of this leaflet is shown in Appendix A and a map of the distribution area can be found in Appendix B. The leaflet was also emailed to stakeholders, as well as being available online through the TfL consultation website. A map showing existing bus route and proposed re-route was put up at 20 bus stops along the 235 route and a press release was sent to the local media. An email was sent out to approximately 10,000 customers using the TfL Oystercard database. Two local schools, Brentford School for Girls, and St Paul’s Church of England Primary School, were contacted before and during the consultation. Three specific questions were asked: • Do you currently use route 235? • Would you use the 235 following the proposed route extension? • Do you support the extension to the route 235? A free text response box was available for further comments. People could respond by post using our free postal address which was stated on the leaflet, by emailing [email protected], by using the TfL consultation website, or by calling Customer Services on 0343 222 1234. 2.4 Meetings and site visits Due to the consultation starting close to the end of the school summer term, two local schools in the area were contacted, Brentford School for Girls and St Pauls Church of England Primary School, to inform them that they would soon be receiving an email from us advising them of the proposed changes. This was followed up by further contact during the consultation to ensure that they received the email and to let them know that their views on the proposed changes would be important. 3 3 Responses from members of the public We received a total of 202 responses. 198 were submitted online, 3 by email and 1 by post as a letter.

There was no overall response from the London Borough of Hounslow as a whole Summary of stakeholder comments: Councillor Matt Harmer, Brentford Ward, LB Hounslow Thanks. Fully support and have replied to online consultation. Councillor Robert Oulds, Chiswick Homefields Ward, LB Hounslow This appears to be a very sensible suggestion. London Borough of Hounslow - Learning Disability Day Services A number of our service users and their elderly parents live in this area. The proposed extension to the 235 route would save changing buses, crossing busy roads and be generally safer. West London University Very timely for travelling to work etc. Along with the buses 65 and H91 the new extension for the bus 235 will create good connections for residents and business alike, especially those working in the Golden Mile vicinity. Brentford School for Girls Sounds like there'd be better links to H91. Brentford Football Club It will help reduce crowds on match days at Brentford Football Club with fans using public transport to and from Hounslow. Brentford Chamber of Commerce Supportive. 8 Appendix A – Copy of the consultation leaflet 9 Copy of the consultation map 10 Appendix B – Leaflet distribution area Consultation Area 1: GWQ - Brentford Consultation Area 2: Back Lane - Brentford 11 Appendix C – List of stakeholders consulted Boroughs and Councils London Borough of Hounslow Political Stakeholders Position Organisation Mary Macleod Member of Parliament House of Commons Tony Arbour Assembly Member Greater London Authority Caroline Pidgeon Assembly Member Greater London Authority Darren Johnson Assembly Member Greater London Authority Jenny Jones Assembly Member Greater London Authority Gareth Bacon Assembly Member Greater London Authority Mike Tuffrey Assembly Member Greater London Authority Mary-Clare Connellan Assembly Member Greater London Authority Murad Qureshi Assembly Member Greater London Authority Nicky Gavron Assembly Member Greater London Authority Andrew Boff Assembly Member Greater London Authority Victoria Borwick Assembly Member Greater London Authority Tom Copley Assembly Member Greater London Authority Stephen Knight Assembly Member Greater London Authority Fiona Twycross Assembly Member Greater London Authority Cllr Ruth Cadbury Brentford Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Melvin Collins Brentford Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Matthew Harmer Brentford Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Jason Ellar Syon Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Steve Curran Syon Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Theo Dennison Syon Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Ed Mayne Isleworth Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Pritam Grewal Isleworth Ward London Borough of Hounslow Cllr Robert Oulds Chiswick Homefields Ward London Borough of Hounslow Local Groups/Businesses Brentford Dock Residents Association

  • London Assembly Mayor’S Question Time – Thursday 21 March 2019 Transcript of Item 5 – Questions to the Mayor
    Appendix 2 London Assembly Mayor’s Question Time – Thursday 21 March 2019 Transcript of Item 5 – Questions to the Mayor Tony Arbour AM (Chairman): We now go to the questions to the Mayor which are set out in the priority order paper. 2019/6251 - Brexit Andrew Dismore AM Given where we are on Brexit, what do you consider the implications are for the London economy and for Londoners? Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): On 14 February [2019] Members of Parliament (MPs) voted to reject the Government’s bad Brexit deal. Last week MPs voted again to reject the very same bad Brexit deal. It is noteworthy that the Prime Minister thinks that MPs should get a second or even third say, but not the British public. Over and over again, Government has failed to deliver promised breakthroughs from its hopeless Brexit negotiations. This deal would worsen life chances and reduce opportunities in London and across the UK for future generations. The Prime Minister needs to put our city and our country first and withdraw Article 50. It is time to give the public the final say on Brexit with the option of remaining in the European Union (EU). With our partners in the London Resilience Forum, I have taken the steps we can to ensure the capital is prepared in the event the UK leaves the EU with no deal in place. However, the Government’s uncoordinated approach to the planning for a no-deal has made this very difficult. For many businesses, it has been nigh on impossible for them to plan ahead.

The question-and-answer session will be divided into two parts. The Assembly will ask questions of Philip Kolvin QC, former Chair of the Night Time Commission, in the first part of the session. In the second part of the session, the Assembly will ask questions of Kate Nicholls, newly appointed Chair of the Night Time Commission, and Amy Lamé, Night Czar. Each session will start off with a leadoff question from me as Chairman. Up to two hours has been allowed for the overall session. Welcome, Mr Kolvin. Philip Kolvin QC (Former Chair of the Night Time Commission): Thank you, Chairman. Tony Arbour AM (Chairman): You can make a statement and then I will give you the leadoff question. Philip Kolvin QC (Former Chair of the Night Time Commission): It is very kind of you to give me that latitude, Chairman, but I really am here just to answer questions by the Assembly Members and give them such assistance as I am able to give. I am not here with any agenda to push or any line to run. I am just laying myself open to questions from anyone who wants to ask them. Tony Arbour AM (Chairman): Very brave. The leadoff question is this: what is your assessment of the Night Time Commission based on your tenure as Chair? Philip Kolvin QC (Former Chair of the Night Time Commission): Chairman, from its first meeting in mid-October 2017 until the end of my tenure three months later, the Commission, which comprises 26 expert individuals from across the public, private and third sector, had made excellent progress and laid down firm foundations for its future work.

  • Consultation on Proposed Changes to Bus Route 691
    Consultation on proposed changes to bus route 691 Consultation Report December 2016 1 Consultation on proposed changes to bus route 691 Consultation Report 2 Contents 1 Introduction ..................................................................................................................... 2 2 The consultation ............................................................................................................. 2 3 Responses from members of the public ......................................................................... 3 4 Responses from statutory bodies and other stakeholders .............................................. 5 Appendix A – Consultation materials .................................................................................... 7 Appendix B – List of stakeholders consulted....................................................................... 10 1 1 Introduction We recently consulted stakeholders and the public about our proposals to stop running route 691. The consultation took place between 29 June and 23 August 2016. This report explains the background to the proposal, the consultation and summarises the responses received. 1.1. Our proposals Route 691 currently runs between Richmond Road, Ham and The Hollyfield School, Surbiton. It runs one journey from Ham to The Hollyfield School in the morning with one journey from The Hollyfield School to Ham in the afternoon. Following a review and to make better use of our resources we proposed that route 691 would no longer run. There are currently around 90 trips per day made on the 691. Passengers who currently use route 691 between Kingston and The Hollyfield School would be able to use either route 281, 406 or 418 instead. Around 10-15 pupils travel from north of Kingston. They would need to use route 65 and change buses at Kingston to complete their journey. There would be no changes to routes 65, 281, 406 or 418. 2 The consultation The consultation was designed to enable us to understand local opinion about the proposed changes to route 691.
