Mr. Brake: To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will make a statement on (a) train, (b) signal and (c) track failures in each year since 1994-95, for all the lines on London Underground. [67904] Ms Glenda Jackson: London Transport works hard to minimise the incidence of equipment failure and its consequent impact on passenger service. I understand from London Transport that the figures from 1994-95 are as follows: Summary of numbers London Underground Ltd. train delays: track, signal/points and rolling stock only by incident group and financial year (1994-95/1998-99) _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Signal points Other track Rolling stock Delays in 1994-95 2,349 659 16,123 Delays in 1995-96 2,494 959 15,102 Delays in 1996-97 2,323 1,007 14,873 Delays in 1997-98 2,725 881 17,801 Delays in 1998-99 (36 weeks only) 1,941 589 14,011 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Full 1998-99 statistics are not yet available as London Underground Ltd.'s data collection year covers 1 April 1998 to 31 March 1999. Therefore the 1998-99 figures represents 36 weeks only

Mr. Brake: To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will make a statement on (a) train, (b) signal and (c) track failures in each of the last 10 years for the Northern Line of London Underground. [32636] Ms Glenda Jackson: Information in the format requested is readily available only since 1994-95, when responsibility for maintenance of equipment and infrastructure assets was devolved to individual lines. _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Year Trains Signal Track 1994-95 3,044 179 150 1995-96 4,888 234 130 1996-97 3,536 194 40 1997-98 3,846 191 15 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Notes: Northern line has recorded the failures on the following basis: Trains--all failures causing delays of two minutes or more. Signal--all failures causing delays of two minutes or more. Track--average impact in seconds per train per round trip journey (track failures during service hours are rare; any failures are generally detected early and result in the application of temporary speed restrictions).
