Shirley Rodrigues and David Howell (CIRAS) were unable to attend. To reflect TfL’s focus on safety, the Chair invited Members to raise any safety issues in relation to items on the agenda or within the remit of the Panel at the start of the item or under Matters Arising. Any other safety issues than these could be discussed with the General Counsel or an appropriate member of the Executive Committee after the meeting. Page 1 Members confirmed there were no further safety matters they wished to raise other than those to be discussed on the agenda. The Panel noted that 9 November 2019 marked the third anniversary of the tram overturning at Sandilands, Croydon. Our thoughts remained with all those affected by the incident. 61/11/19 Declarations of Interests Members confirmed that their declarations of interests, as published on tfl.gov.uk were up to date and there were no interests that related specifically to items on the agenda. It was noted that Mark Phillips was a Board Member of CIRAS and it was agreed that this did not preclude him from taking part in discussions on Item 7 on the agenda. 62/11/19 Minutes of the Meeting of the Panel held on 4 September 2019 The minutes of the meeting held on 4 September 2019 were approved as a correct record and were signed by the Chair. 63/11/19 Matters Arising and Actions List Howard Carter introduced the item. The Panel noted the actions list. 64/11/19 Annual Presentation from CIRAS Catherine Baker introduced the report and presentation, which provided an overview of the work of the independent confidential reporting line service. The role of CIRAS was to receive and act on incoming reports from staff. While CIRAS did not involve itself in the review of TfL’s internal process, its activities could highlight issues that would be fed back into process reviews and improvements. An increase in reporting had been seen over the last six months, with the greatest numbers of reports related to health and wellbeing, fatigue and rules and procedures. Absolute numbers remained relatively low and it was recognised that TfL promoted CIRAS as well as Safeline, another confidential independent reporting service, to staff. Without seeing how other organisations promoted the service with staff, it was difficult to draw comparisons with other organisations. Consideration would also be given as to whether the themes identified by CIRAS were reflected in findings from Viewpoint, TfL’s annual staff survey. Page 2 Members noted that there was a link between health and wellbeing and fatigue, and that an update should be provided to see which activities were taking place to make improvements in this area. [Action: Lilli Matson] The Panel suggested that consideration be given to developing a system to allow ideas and recommendations to be drawn from CIRAS reports and these fed back to TfL. The Panel noted the paper. 65/11/19 Quarterly Health, Safety and Environment Performance Report Lilli Matson, Andy Lord and Gareth Powell introduced the report, which provided an overview of health, safety and environmental performance for London Underground, TfL Rail, Surface Transport (including London Overground) and Crossrail for Quarter 2 2019/20 (23 June to 14 September 2019). A fatality involving a maintenance contractor working at Waterloo station occurred on 18 September 2019. An update was included on the agenda for the meeting. On 31 October 2019, a collision involving two buses and a car resulted in the death of the driver of one of the buses, Kenneth Matcham. The car driver was reported to have failed a drugs test at the scene and was subsequently arrested. TfL was providing support to those affected. Our thoughts remained with the family of Kenneth Matcham and all those affected by the incident. On 31 October, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) announced their decision not to prosecute the driver of the tram which overturned at Sandilands, Croydon on 9 November 2016. It was also confirmed that the CPS would not prosecute TfL or Tram Operations Limited (FirstGroup) for corporate manslaughter. Two investigations were ongoing – those of the Office of Road and Rail and the Coroner’s Inquests. The Panel would be kept updated. There had been a 4.4 per cent reduction in people killed or seriously injured on the roads against the previous year, although a recent upward trend had been identified. There had been a 21 per cent decrease in people killed or seriously injured involving buses and this reduction was within the Scorecard target.

  • London Underground Limited
    Background Paper 1 Developing the Network 1 Introduction 1.1 Bus use has increased by over two-thirds since 1999, driven by sustained increases in the size and quality of the network, fares policy and underlying changes in London’s economy. The bus network is constantly evolving as London develops and the needs and aspirations of passengers and other stakeholders change. Enhancements take place not only to the service pattern but across all aspects of the service. • Capacity. The level of bus-km run has increased by around 40 per cent over the same period. Network capacity has increased by a faster rate, by around 55 per cent, with increases in average vehicle size. Additionally, much improved reliability means that more of the scheduled capacity is delivered to passengers. • Reliability. Effective bus contract management, in particular the introduction of Quality Incentive Contracts, has driven a transformation of reliability. This has been supported by bus priority and by the effects of the central London congestion charging scheme. Service control has been made more efficient and effective by iBus, TfL’s automatic vehicle location system. 4.0 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 Excess Wait Time (mins) 1.0 0.5 0.0 1977 1979 1981 1983 1985/86 1987/88 1989/90 1991/92 1993/94 1995/96 1997/98 1999/00 2001/02 2003/04 2005/06 2007/08 2009/10 2011/12 2013/14 Figure 1: Excess Waiting Time on high-frequency routes – since 1977 • Customer service.

  • APPENDIX 4 Pre-RMA Conditions Condition 1.9 Construction
    APPENDIX 4 Pre-RMA Conditions Condition 1.9 Construction Consolidation Centre Feasibility Study This is the review of the Construction Consolidation Centre provision and / or alternative logistics facilities to provide a management method for enabling the safe and efficient flow of construction materials and equipment from suppliers to relevant development sites within the Northern Development and / or Southern Development. The key objective of the study is to reduce the number of construction vehicles on the surrounding highway network of the development by identifying measures to provide a managed flow and distribution of construction vehicles onto the strategic highway network. The review includes potential use of existing facilities and any new facilities which may be required to reduce the impact on the local infrastructure and the environment, through reduced vehicle movements during Phase 1, especially in the peak periods. Eleven sites were reviewed as a potential Logistics Centre (a vehicle holding facility enabling the flow of vehicles to a site to be controlled.) The highest scoring sites and associated distances from the site were: o London Gateway Services Plot (M1 Junction 3, southbound: 5 miles) o Wembley Industrial Park (Great Central Way, Wembley: 4 miles) The same eleven sites were also reviewed as a potential a warehousing / storage site. The highest scoring sites and associated distances from the site were: o Wembley Industrial Park (Great Central Way, Wembley: 4 miles) o Park Royal Industrial Estate (Abbey Road, Park
