Caroline Pidgeon has been supporting the campaign to stop Caledonian Road station closing for eight months next year. Closing the station would have a serious negative impact on local residents and businesses. It would also make it harder for wheelchair users living in the area to access the tube network. She has been:
- Making inquiries with TfL about why the lifts need to be refurbished, the reasons for why TfL says the station has to close and what the costs would be to do the work in stages
- Requesting the Mayor (via a written question) to delay the closure until the works at Tufnell Park station are complete – at present there will be a three month overlap while both stations are closed
- Agreeing to submit a community-led petition to the London Assembly at the next Plenary meeting on 2nd December, calling on the Mayor not to close the station at all
