RESPONDING TO THE CONSULTATION – AN APPROACH THAT MAY SAVE SOME TIME

The full Transport for London survey is a bit long and unwieldy and (we think) has some intrusive personal questions. Hardly designed to encourage response.

Most people might prefer not to answer all of the questions.

It is not necessary to answer every question.

To save you typing, we have produced some typical answers to the main questions affecting drivers.

You can send off your consultation response as a message with a personalised version

We suggest that you might

1. Open our question and answers sheet (opens in a new window).

3. Copy the text from the question and answers sheet window into your message

4. Personalise the message (e.g. add your postcode and comments if you like)

5. Send off the message containing your response

HERE’S SOME MORE INFORMATION FOR BALANCE

The consultation and the TfL approach generally are ‘war on the motorist’. Various groups are standing up for the over-taxed motorist and for a more balanced debate on wider issues. Some links:
