question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many miles of public road in central London for which they are responsible are (1) completely closed, and (2) only partially open, to vehicles due to roadworks; on whose authority those roadworks are being conducted; what is the estimated total cost of those roadworks; and when they expect those roadworks to be completed.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/03/2016 answer text <p>The Government is not directly responsible for any roads in central London, and does not therefore hold this information. London’s roads fall into three main categories; the Transport for London Road Network (TLRN), known as red routes, which are managed by Transport for London (TfL); the Borough Principal Road Network (BPRN) managed by the individual London boroughs; and a small number of motorways forming part of the Strategic Road Network (SRN) managed by Highways England. All of the above are subject to the London Permit Scheme (LoPS) which was brought in to minimise the disruption caused by roadworks and streetworks across London. Each borough and TfL have their own schemes, ensuring local control of conditions on local roads. The Transport for London Lane Rental Scheme (TLRS) also helps manage works on the TLRN at traffic-sensitive locations. A daily charge of £800 or £2500 per day is applied, depending upon the sensitivity of the location. This scheme has helped to reduce traffic disruption by changing the behaviour of utility companies and other contractors.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 03/03/2016 12:36:28 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/02/2015 answer text <p>Homeless Link, who run StreetLink in partnership with St Mungos Broadway, provide regular updates on how the service is performing. Homeless Link work with local authorities and homelessness organisations to continue to improve the take-up of StreetLink nationally and the help it provides to enable rough sleepers to get back on their feet. Since it started in December 2012 Streetlink has made just under 23,000 rough sleeping referrals to councils to investigate, leading to 9,800 rough sleepers being found and connected with local services of which nearly 1,900 resulted in a specific housing outcome. The Government have increased spending to prevent and tackle rough sleeping and homelessness making over £500 million available, giving councils the funding and tools needed to take action against rough sleeping locally.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 03/02/2015 15:19:43 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
