Lambeth Council has set out the case to Transport for London for more investment in our borough’s key public transport projects, highlighting how they would benefit our residents, boost local businesses and contribute to the Lambeth Growth Plan.
In December 2025, the Leader of the Council, Councillor Claire Holland, and Councillor Rezina Chowdhury, Deputy Leader of the Council (Sustainable Lambeth and Clean Air) , met with Andy Lord, the Commissioner of Transport for London, to set out the case for investing in the borough’s key public transport projects; you can read the report on the issues raised by the Council on the Love Lambeth website.
We have noted the Council's apparent new priority on the Tulse Hill gyratory of improvement rather than removal, and understand the Transforn Tulse Hill campaign will be discussing this issue. The campaign organisers welcome any improvements to the Tulse Hill gyratory but do not want to see previous ambitions watered down.
Following our campaign in 2024 to seek the views of the community on our local public transport, we met with Councillor Rezina Chowdhury on the outcomes. We are keen to ensure that the public transport needs of the south of the borough are continually addressed by both the Council and TfL, and will be considering what further action by us would be beneficial.
In a further development, car-sharing platform Zipcar announced on 1 December 2025 its intention to cease operations in the UK and temporarily suspend new bookings after 31 December, pending the outcome of the necessary staff consultation. Future provison of car-sharing in London has been raised with the Mayor of London, and individual boroughs have been considering how the service can be provided in the future. Lambeth Council has highlighted that Enterprise CarClub is available to Lambeth residents and the council is talking to other accredited operators to see which other car clubs could be brought to the borough to fill the Car Club bays which Zipcar will vacate.
