Mayor needs to answer key questions over cable car proposals
Caroline Pidgeon, Leader of the Liberal Democrat London Assembly Group, commenting on the Mayor’s announcement of a lead contractor to construct London’s cable car, said:
“A cable car crossing the Thames is a great idea, but it is a great idea being let down by poor financial planning and a lack of openness.
“The Mayor must now come clean and state why as recently as July 2010 he was claiming the cable car would cost £25 million, but already its projected cost has doubled.
