Questions to the Mayor

Hangar Lane

Question No: 940 / 2005

Richard Barnes

What checks are undertaken by TfL to ensure that the area of Waldegrove Road and Hangar Lane remains properly lit at all times, both for road traffic and pedestrians?

 

The street lighting on Hanger Lane is inspected weekly to detect outages, and routine maintenance to replace all the lamps was last undertaken on 17 May 2005. There have been outages at two streetlights on Hanger Lane on either side of its junction with Waldegrave Road. The first column to the north of the junction had been hit by a vehicle, is now replaced and is back working. The column to the south had an electricity supply fault and while attended to by the electricity company requires their further repairs, which EDF are addressing.

 

Safer Neighbourhood Teams

Question No: 942 / 2005

Richard Barnes

Could the Mayor please update me as to the progress of rolling out the 5 new Safer Neighbourhood Teams per Borough. What percentage of the new teams are additional staff and what percentage is taken from existing Police resources, by Borough?

I have been informed by the MPS that there are currently 253 step change funded Safer Neighbourhoods (SN) teams in London, meaning 157 of the proposed 160 SN teams for 2005/6 have already been launched.  

 

The remaining three SN teams will be launched within the next few weeks. This means that there is on average eight SN teams per borough with five launched in the current financial year. Two thirds of the teams come from new staff and one third from existing staff.
