Caroline Pidgeon MBE
By Helen
Caroline Pidgeon is a Liberal Democrat London Assembly Member and Deputy Chair of the Transport Committee at City Hall with a true passion for transport.
Caroline was the first Mayoral candidate to endorse London Cycling Campaign’s Sign for Cycling campaign, with a commitment to increase the budget for cycling infrastructure to 3% of the TfL budget and ensure that money is spent (in 2014/15 £107m was allocated but only £60m spent). She continues to campaign for better infrastructure, such as safer junctions for cyclists, and improving opportunities for many more people to cycle in the city.
