Waterloo is just such a place. This Framework describes Waterloo today, including the rich history which has so strongly LQÀXHQFHGLWVFKDUDFWHU,WVHWVRXWFXUUHQWLVVXHVUHODWLQJWR public realm and permeability which need to be addressed and examines some challenging transport issues. Building on this analysis, it describes a vision for Waterloo together with a series of objectives for the area. Central to this vision are plans for a new ‘City Square’ for Waterloo, creating a radically improved public space, and the conversion of Waterloo Road to a public transport-only corridor. The vision also requires that we make the most of Waterloo’s development potential; as part RIWKLVWKH)UDPHZRUNLGHQWL¿HVDUHDVVXLWDEOHIRUWDOOEXLOGLQJV The draft Waterloo Development Framework was published in 2006 for public consultation. I would like to thank all those who took the time to respond. These responses have been taken into account in this preparation of this revised document. I would also like to place on record my thanks to the other members of the steering group: Lambeth Council, Network Rail, Transport for London and the London Development Agency. They have all worked collaboratively and constructively in the production of this Framework. I look forward to continued joint working as we address the major issues for Waterloo, including the creation of the ‘City Square’, Network Rail’s plans for Waterloo Station and the major development proposals that will maintain and enhance Waterloo’s role in London’s social, cultural and economic future.

There is a clear characterisation of Waterloo. The Riverside (largely the South Bank Conservation Area) is marked by a layer of set-piece administrative and cultural buildings set against the River which have a horizontal townscape emphasis - such as County Hall; the Royal Festival Hall and the National Theatre. There is a second layer set behind the Riverside buildings which are punctuated by tall buildings such as the Shell Centre; the ITV tower and King’s Reach Tower. This forms a commercial spine behind. The bend in the River accentuates this point. 7KH2$3)LGHQWL¿HVDQXPEHURIORFDWLRQVDURXQG the area that create a lack of permeability, safety and connectivity issues or provide areas of poor public realm. These include Waterloo Station which has a severance effect on the area and surrounding communities; an irregular road pattern; a poor environment outside Victory Arch and the IMAX area and subways failing to provide a good walking environment. The importance of the cultural quarter and major tourist attractions is outlined. Finally, this section sets out information relating to retailing, population, social infrastructure and open space. v Transport and movement The OAPF analyses transport and movement in the area and sets out a timeline for various improvements. A crucial factor in the development of the area will be the future of Waterloo Station. At present, the station is considered to be operating at full capacity during the evening peak and growth is forecast to continue steadily, with an increase in demand of approximately 20 percent over the next ten years. Network Rail has commenced looking at options for relieving capacity issues at the station which includes an option for relocation of the main station concourse to street level. The relocation of Eurostar services from Waterloo International to St. Pancras in November 2007 will have a direct effect on the future use of the terminal and tracks as well as a major impact on taxi circulation.

  • Investigation Into Reliability of the Jubilee Line
    Investigation into Reliability: London Underground Jubilee Line An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science By Jack Arnis Agolli Marianna Bailey Errando Berwin Jayapurna Yiannis Kaparos Date: 26 April 2017 Report Submitted to: Malcolm Dobell CPC Project Services Professors Rosenstock and Hall-Phillips Worcester Polytechnic Institute This report represents work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see http://www.wpi.edu/Academics/Projects. Abstract Metro systems are often faced with reliability issues; specifically pertaining to safety, accessibility, train punctuality, and stopping accuracy. The project goal was to assess the reliability of the London Underground’s Jubilee Line and the systems implemented during the Jubilee Line extension. The team achieved this by interviewing train drivers and Transport for London employees, surveying passengers, validating the stopping accuracy of the trains, measuring dwell times, observing accessibility and passenger behavior on platforms with Platform Edge Doors, and overall train performance patterns. ii Acknowledgements We would currently like to thank everyone who helped us complete this project. Specifically we would like to thank our sponsor Malcolm Dobell for his encouragement, expert advice, and enthusiasm throughout the course of the project. We would also like to thank our contacts at CPC Project Services, Gareth Davies and Mehmet Narin, for their constant support, advice, and resources provided during the project.

  • Waterloo Building Height Study, 2018
    Waterloo Building Height Study, 2018 1. Introduction 1.1 This study has been undertaken to inform Lambeth’s approach to tall buildings in Waterloo as part of the Lambeth Local Plan Review, 2018. 2. Background The Waterloo Opportunity Area 2.1 The London Plan identifies Waterloo as an Opportunity Area and the objectives are outlined in the Mayor’s Waterloo Opportunity Area Planning Framework (2007) which include: ‘Development potential in the area should be maximised given Waterloo’s status as an opportunity Area and its location within the Central Activities Zone and to accord with the strategy of providing the highest levels of activity at locations with the greatest transport capacity’. 2.2 The OAPF identified two broad areas suitable for tall building – above and around the station and on the commercial spine behind the Riverside (Belvedere Road and Upper Ground) – based in part on the presence of tall buildings in these locations already. The associated illustrations generally show a cluster of tall buildings over Waterloo Station which would be delivered as part of a station redevelopment which would push the passenger concourse to ground level allowing the platforms to be extended. 2.3 The OAPF recognises the need for development to respond to this sensitive context: ‘Additionally, development potential has to be tempered against the normal impacts of development assessed by the planning system including the impact on character areas and on local and strategic views’. (OAPF page 99). 2.4 Figure 49 identifies five areas of possible development within and around the railway station: 1. Elizabeth House and surrounds, 2.

It has experienced rapid population growth, increasing by over 50,000 in the last 10 years up until 2015. There are five key town centers: Brixton, Clapham and Stockwell, North Lambeth (Waterloo, Vauxhall, Kennington), and Norwood and Streatham. Lambeth is the 5th most deprived Borough in London. One in five of the borough’s residents work in jobs that pay below the London Living Wage. This is reflected by the fact that nearly one in four (24%) young people live in families who receive tax credits. Major regeneration developments and improvements are underway for Waterloo and Vauxhall and the Nine Elms Regeneration project which will drive the transformation of these areas. Lambeth College has three main campuses in the borough, based in Clapham, Brixton and Vauxhall. Approximately a quarter of the student cohort in any given academic year are 16‐18 learners. In addition to this, there is also a significantly growing proportion of 16-18 learners on Apprenticeship programmes, moderate numbers on workplace‐training provision for employers and school link programmes which are offered to relatively smaller learner volumes.
