Public Transport


Affordable, comfortable, fast and frequent public transport is critical to the reduction of congestion, air pollution and noise pollution, and to the transition to a net-zero borough. We will:

  • oppose any attempts to water down or remove concessionary travel options in London
  • work with residents and Transport for London (TfL) to establish where bus and tram routes could be changed or introduced for the benefit of those living and working in areas with a low Public Transport Access Level (PTAL) score
  • collaborate with Network Rail and TfL to address access problems for those who wheel[1]
  • seek to introduce local, shuttle bus routes following spoke-type routes around the town centres, to facilitate access for people with mobility difficulties, families with young children, etc.
