Better buses for Putney and Roehampton – sign the petition!

A huge number of residents have told me the bus service in Putney is just not working. Residents are facing huge gaps waiting for buses that don’t turn up, journeys are terminating early and the information on digital displays is incorrect. Buses are overcrowded and unreliable, stopping people getting to work on time and disrupting their daily lives. I won the campaign to save our bus routes 14 and 74. Now I’m campaigning for a better service for Putney and Roehampton residents.

I am calling on TfL to:

Prioritise a review of all the bus services for Putney and Roehampton
Make the 170 a Double Decker to Clapham Junction to reduce overcrowding and delays
Make the 85 and the 265 more reliable and frequent
Stop terminations at the Green Man

About me

It’s such an honour to have been re-elected to serve our community in Putney, Southfields, Roehampton and Wandsworth Town.

I am so proud to be your MP and to be the Minister for Northern Ireland as part of a Labour Government delivering for you.

I am a vicar’s daughter, and a local mum with four children and a new baby granddaughter. I have lived in Wandsworth for 30 years. I got involved in campaigns to save my local children’s centre and pub, then went on to be a Wandsworth councillor for 7 years. I ran a community centre in Battersea before becoming an MP, running programmes for older people and young people.

I worked in international development for 25 years, working for Christian Aid, CAFOD, Oxfam and Water Aid, including as an aid worker during the Bosnian war and in Kenya for 4 years, negotiating at the UN for clean water and sanitation.

I have been working hard for you since I was elected in 2019, speaking up in Parliament, writing letters to Ministers, asking Parliamentary questions and resolving constituency casework.

I have always been a campaigning MP and will keep campaigning on the issues that matter to us, and you can read about these and more here on my website:
