Lib Dem London Assembly member Caroline Pidgeon joined Oval Ward Lib Dems for a special advice surgery at this month's Vauxhall Park Summer Fair, which included a consultation session on the proposed new 42-storey development at Bondway to hear what people think.
Caroline Pidgeon AM joined local residents, staff from King’s College Hospital and politicians from all parties at a campaign rally on Friday 26 June at Denmark Hill Station to save the South London Line. This is the loop line that runs all day from Victoria to London Bridge. By 2012 Denmark Hill will have no direct trains to London Bridge and only 2 trains per hour to Victoria.
Cllr Caroline Pidgeon AM joined local residents in Sutherland Square and representatives from the Iceland Store on the Walworth Road to trial how one of their large lorries can manoeuvre around the square without going up onto the pavements and damaging the flower beds.
The Zone was designed to slow down all vehicles and to allow cars, pedestrians and cyclists to share the road space safely.
Caroline Pidgeon has tabled a question to Boris Johnson to ask why, during the engineering work disrupting the Jubilee line this summer, replacement buses from Canada Water are being directed to Bank rather than along the line's normal route to Waterloo.
"It seems extraordinary that TfL decide on where to route rail replacement buses without, it would appear, consulting the local community," says Caroline.
The Hounslow Chronicle covers the story of the double red lines painted by mistake on Lower Mortlake Road in Richmond, and the efforts of Susan Kramer MP and Caroline Pidgeon AM in having them removed.
Caroline tabled a question on the issue to Boris Johnson, who admitted: "An error was made, resulting in TfL’s contractors installing double red lines in advance of a decision being made on the necessary traffic orders. ... Any red lines introduced prematurely and without a valid traffic order will not be enforced."
