Nick Lester-Davis, corporate director of services at London Councils, will be formally handing overall responsibility for transport issues to Spencer Palmer, director of transport and mobility. 

Palmer will join London Councils’ corporate management team and take on wider management responsibilities.

Lester-Davis’ primary focus will be on a ‘challenge process’ that aims to inform thinking about what London local government requires from London Councils over the next five years.

He will also continue to lead London Councils’ work on ultra-low emission vehicles, electric vehicles and car sharing. He remains London Councils’ primary point of contact with the British Parking Association (BPA).

Lester-Davis will still have responsibility for services such as: Capital Ambition, the regional improvement and efficiency partnership for London; grants and community services; and Young People's Education and Skills (YPES).
