  • Battersea Area Guide
    Battersea Area Guide Living in Battersea and Nine Elms Battersea is in the London Borough of Wandsworth and stands on the south bank of the River Thames, spanning from Fairfield in the west to Queenstown in the east. The area is conveniently located just 3 miles from Charing Cross and easily accessible from most parts of Central London. The skyline is dominated by Battersea Power Station and its four distinctive chimneys, visible from both land and water, making it one of London’s most famous landmarks. Battersea’s most famous attractions have been here for more than a century. The legendary Battersea Dogs and Cats Home still finds new families for abandoned pets, and Battersea Park, which opened in 1858, guarantees a wonderful day out. Today Battersea is a relatively affluent neighbourhood with wine bars and many independent and unique shops - Northcote Road once being voted London’s second favourite shopping street. The SW11 Literary Festival showcases the best of Battersea’s literary talents and the famous New Covent Garden Market keeps many of London’s restaurants supplied with fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers. Nine Elms is Europe’s largest regeneration zone and, according the mayor of London, the ‘most important urban renewal programme’ to date. Three and half times larger than the Canary Wharf finance district, the future of Nine Elms, once a rundown industrial district, is exciting with two new underground stations planned for completion by 2020 linking up with the northern line at Vauxhall and providing excellent transport links to the City, Central London and the West End.

  • Thames Tideway Tunnel
    www.WaterProjectsOnline.com Wastewater Treatment & Sewerage Thames Tideway Tunnel - Central Contract technical, logistical and operational challenges have required an innovative approach to building the Super Sewer close to some of London’s biggest landmarks by Matt Jones hames Tideway Tunnel is the largest water infrastructure project currently under construction in the UK and will modernise London’s major sewerage system, the backbone of which dates back to Victorian times. Although Tthe sewers built in the mid-19th century are still in excellent structural condition, their hydraulic capacity was designed by Sir Joseph Bazalgette for a population and associated development of 4 million people. Continued development and population growth has resulted in the capacities of the sewer system being exceeded, so that when it rains there are combined sewer overflows (CSO) to the tidal Thames performing as planned by Bazalgette. To reduce river pollution, risk to users of the river and meet bespoke dissolved oxygen standards to protect marine wildlife, discharges from these combined sewer overflows (CSOs) must be reduced. The Environment Agency has determined that building the Tideway Tunnel in combination with the already completed Lee Tunnel and improvements at five sewage treatment works would suitably control discharges, enabling compliance with the European Union’s Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive. Visualisation showing cross section through the Thames Tideway Tunnel Central Victoria CSO site – Courtesy of Tideway Project structure and programme There is also a fourth overarching systems integrator contract The Thames Tideway Tunnel closely follows the route of the river, providing the project’s monitoring and control system. Jacobs intercepting targeted CSOs that currently discharge 18Mm3 of Engineering is the overall programme manager for Tideway.

  • Listening to and Understanding the Local Community of St Peter's
    Listening to and understanding the local community of St Peter’s Church, Battersea by Samuel Verbi and Ben Winkley - Eido Research Introduction Contents “If your church building were a person, 3 what would it be like?” Introduction Nigel Walter, Church Buildings for People 1 About the local area Methodology Churches are typically places that are familiar, welcoming, and valuable to congregation Demographics members and Christians in general. As places of worship they offer a space for members to connect with each other and God, in a well known setting. 1. Identifying needs 8 And yet we rarely consider how our church building is seen by those who aren’t members of the congregation and how it could bring value and benefit to our local communities and Local knowledge residents. Fractured community Lack of activities What are the needs that this building could help meet? And ultimately, if our building were a person, how it could serve those in society who need it the most? 2. How could St Peter’s respond? 12 With a new church building set for completion in Autumn 2018, it is answers to these questions that St Peter’s church wanted to know. With a vision to “share the love of Jesus Which groups should St Peter’s be helping? in Battersea and beyond”, the church wanted to learn how they could use their new building Youth and elderly to “serve those most in need” in the local community. 2 Creating a safe space Following consultation in 2017, St Peter’s asked Eido to learn from the local community exactly what those needs are, and how they can best meet them with their new building.
