Londoners ‘face overpriced ferry tickets’ after Thames cycle bridge scrapped

Baroness Pidgeon, the Liberal Democrat transport spokesperson in the House of Lords who questioned Sir Sadiq about the cancellation of the bridge when she sat on the London Assembly, told the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS): “This crossing option is far better than no crossing option, and is welcome to users, despite the steep costs, but the reality is, the area desperately needs the Rotherhithe to Canary Wharf cycling and walking bridge which I have long campaigned for and which sadly the Mayor has failed to build.”
