Transport for London Funding

Proceeding contribution from Clive Efford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 December 2015. It occurred during Debate on Transport for London Funding.

On the garden bridge, which no one has ever asked me for, TfL intends to build the Silvertown tunnel in south-east London to relieve congestion at the Blackwall tunnel, but it says that local residents will have to pay for it through tolls, though no other river crossing in London has charges. Perhaps the garden bridge should have an entrance fee, so that it can pay for itself instead of taking money away from vital transport links that are needed in the rest of London.
