Improve Public Transport Connectivity

Public Transport

Cities are built on their public transport networks and Outer London is missing out. Thomas will lobby for improved connectivity across Bexley and Bromley.

 

Thomas will campaign to get the DLR extended to Thamesmead and Belvedere, the Elizabeth line extended to Ebbsfleet via Erith, to restore lost services to London Bridge and Cannon Street, and to improve bus services to our rural communities like Biggin Hill, Keston and Downe.

 

Thomas also wants the London bus fleet to be the cleanest and least polluting in the world. But at the moment there are too many diesel buses operating on our roads, he wants to see these replaced with less polluting vehicles to help improve local air quality.

 

Thomas started out in politics as a public transport campaigner. He founded a local Rail Users Group and successfully campaigned for increased bus capacity – including securing a whole new bus route.
