Better bus service needed
|
Caroline Pidgeon, Liberal Democrat transport spokesperson on the Assembly has handed in a petition with 396 names on it calling for either the K2 or K3 bus to pass by the Cambridge Road estate, Cambridge Gardens and Norbiton.
Organised by Kingston Councillor Sheila Griffin, the petition was presented to the Mayor of London Boris Johnson in his role as Chair of Transport for London, in an attempt to see the estates better served by bus links to Kingston Hospital as well as the centre of Kingston and the Asda superstore at Roehampton Vale.
Caroline Pidgeon said:
"At the moment there are a large number of residents on these estates who have little direct access to the hospital or to the main local shopping centres . People from these estates wishing to access treatment or out patient services need to take at least two buses. I hope the Mayor will get Transport for London to look seriously at whether some minor route alterations could happen - it would definitely benefit local residents wanting to use public transport."
