16/12/2009 - Response to the Mayor's draft Transport Strategy

RESOLVED:

 

That the council’s formal response to the ‘Mayor’s draft Transport Strategy’ as set out in Appendix A of the report be agreed subject to the following amendments:-

 

  • River transport. Welcome positive approach to encourage greater usage of the Thames.
  • Bus operation and the need to review bus route planning. To reference the need for bus timetabling to take account of school children travelling on buses. Bus timetables should address capacity and interchange issues, especially at the end of the school day in order to take children to their destination safely.
