Speaking before tomorrow’s Comprehensive Spending announcement, London TravelWatch Director, Emma Gibson highlighted several priorities for the capital: ‘Londoners will want to see a safe, frequent and reliable Tube service so it is essential that TfL have enough money available to be able to invest in new Tube trains and signalling upgrades as well as CCTV on Tube lines which don’t currently have it. Investment is also needed to ensure that TfL’s programme to make more stations step free can continue. In addition to this, investment in more zero emission, electric buses is essential to help improve air quality and make an important contribution towards decarbonising transport in the capital.’
