The Government is to publish a transport strategy for London in the New Year. The announcement was made today by Transport Secretary Sir George Young in answer to a Parliamentary Question from Richard Tracey (Surbiton). Commenting, Sir George said: "The document will set out the Government's strategy for the future of transport in London into the next Millennium and will build on the work being published today by London Pride. "This work has shown that there is now an impressive consensus about transport policy in London, embracing the business community, local authorities and transport operators. The Government shares in that consensus and is aiming to produce a document which will have the widest support. "I have asked Steven Norris to take forward the preparation of the document taking into account the views of London Pride and others. "In the meantime, I very much welcome the positive line taken by London Pride and the fact that it endorses much of what the Government is doing." The full text of Sir George Young's Written Parliamentary Answer is attached. NOTES TO EDITORS 1. The London Pride Partnership represents business, local government and the voluntary sector in London. The nine member organizations include London First and the Association of London Government. 2. London Pride are publishing today in final form their action programme for transport in London ("London's Action Programme for Transport 1995-2010"). It calls for priority action to improve existing systems and a programme for new infrastructure projects to create a world class transport system for London by 2010.
