Boris Johnson Mayor of London River Action Plan 3 | Chapter 1 Introduction The Mayor and TfL want river services to become a truly integral part of the transport network in the Capital. After all, the river offers a relaxing way of travelling across the city, an appealing form of transport for commuters and an exciting attraction for visitors. However, the Mayor and TfL recognise that London’s river passenger services are not yet reaching their full potential and that action is required to bring about transformational change. This plan outlines a number of specific measures to be taken by TfL and other stakeholders to help boost the number of river trips in line with achieving the Mayor’s target of 12 million passenger journeys a year by 2020. 4 Chapter 1 Introduction River Action Plan 5 | Chapter 2 Demand for river services The use of the river for passenger to 31 March 2013 are expected to be at a As shown in Figure 1, use of river services has increased and freight travel has long provided an similar level.

During 2012/13, TfL has been evaluating the adoption of journeys on the river for the current year an alternative method for counting passenger journeys made on the river.

TfL is Figure 1 Growth of passenger journeys on the River Thames proposing to move to AIS data from April 2013. Barriers to growth 7 There remains a range of factors affecting the wider expansion of passenger services on the Thames.

  • Tfl RIVER CROSSINGS CONSULTATION EXERCISE and the REDBRIDGE RESPONSE: BRIEFING PAPER
    TfL RIVER CROSSINGS CONSULTATION EXERCISE AND THE REDBRIDGE RESPONSE: BRIEFING PAPER 1. Overview Building upon previous consultations, Transport for London is presently undertaking a public consultation exercise seeking views upon a revised set of options for new crossings of the River Thames east of Silvertown. (A proposed new tunnel under the Thames linking Silvertown with the North Greenwich peninsular has already attracted support and will be the subject of separate consultation later this year). The four options upon which views are now sought comprise: A new modern ferry at Woolwich A ferry service at Gallions Reach A bridge at Gallions Reach A bridge at Belvedere. The location of these options is shown in Appendix A in a separate document accompanying this one. For each separate proposal, views are invited whether respondents Strongly Support/Support/Neither/ Oppose/ Strongly Oppose. The public consultation deadline is 12th September, but Boroughs have been given until 30th September to respond. The purpose of this paper is to draw attention to this consultation, summarise broadly the features of the emerging options and to seek a steer on the stance to be followed in LB Redbridge’s formal reply. 2. Background It is important to be aware of previous formal LB Redbridge positions conveyed to TfL in respect of new river crossings proposals. Those stances are summarised in Appendix B to this paper. The salient context surrounding the options now being considered is summarised below: TfL consultation in recent years has yielded support from a majority of respondents to provision of new Thames crossings, with businesses in east and south-east London very supportive.
