Caroline Pidgeon

Caroline joined Westminster by-election candidate Martin Thompson on Wednesday 23 July to highlight the Liberal Democrats' call for street markets to be promoted in station and stop announcements on London's tubes and buses.

Caroline, whose London-wide constituency includes Church Street ward, has lodged a member's enquiry with Transport for London asking if street markets could be named in onboard announcements to passengers.

The future of the Cross River Tram is under threat, as revealed by questioning from London Assembly member Caroline Pidgeon.

Boris Johnson stated that he will be reviewing the transport, economic and environmental implications of the Cross River Tram because there is no Government funding in place for the scheme.

Caroline Pidgeon, Transport Spokesperson for the London Assembly Liberal Democrats, said:

Westminster are off to a great start in this by-election. Caroline joined the local team delivering their latest Focus over a sunny Easter weekend, before meeting up with Jonathan Fryer for a drink at a pub in the sun. It was a warm welcome (in more ways than one!) from both residents and the local Lib Dem team.
