Commenting on the announcement by Transport for London (TfL) that drivers are spending less time sitting at traffic lights after a review of more than 1,000 sets of lights Caroline Pidgeon, the Liberal Democrat London Assembly group leader and transport spokesperson, said:
"Nobody likes sitting in a car waiting at a red light for too long, but are London's drivers profiting at the expense of pedestrians?
"But across London there are far too many pedestrian crossings at junctions that still do not meet Department for Transport safety standards for granting the minimum time for pedestrians to cross. TfL need to get on sorting these out so that people can cross busy roads in safety."
