  • Activating the Gap Between Knowledge and Imagination
    Activating the gap between knowledge and imagination: Exploring the scope for partnership between the arts and sciences towards more inclusive environmental change policy development This three-day workshop event is an enquiry into the efficacy of current climate and environmental change policy and reflects upon the need for a broader disciplinary spectrum in the policy development process. The intention is to scrutinise identifiable gaps in the generation, consultation and implementation of environmental policy, one example of this is where it applies to water and flood risk management. However whatever the manifestation of change may be, it is frequently stated that policy fails at the governance stage due to resistance at a societal level, the reasons for which are many and varied, but indicate that the challenges we are facing at present are far too complex to account for through a pragmatic problem and solution process. It has long been a matter of frustration for the arts community that a cultural perception of the value conferred upon place and belonging by communities has not been considered to be a necessary component in the governance process where it most certainly can become an impediment to implementation. This partnership does not set out to answer questions but more to explore with the wider scientific and policy development communities the issues that exist, where they are managed satisfactorily through existing mechanisms and how the arts might serve to enhance understanding and widen the scope and efficacy of environmental change policy. We are inviting specialists from the arts, social sciences, the physical and cultural geography communities and the policy generation sector, to reflect upon the wealth of arts initiatives that already exist and have been applied in ad hoc fashion across the globe, and to discuss other areas where similar or differing initiatives could be considered.

  • Ultimate Spectators Guide to the London Marathon
    ULTIMATE SPECTATORS GUIDE TO THE LONDON MARATHON We recommend you purchase a Travelcard to travel around London on the day as this will allow access to Rail, Tube and Bus at no extra charge. Zones 1-2 should be adequate for the travelling around the route, however if you need to go further afield, please check which zones you’ll be travelling in. Buses no longer accept cash payments. You’ll need to use a Travelcard, Oyster card or pay with a contactless debit/credit card. Please note that whilst we do have cheering stations at Tower Bridge (mile 12) and along the Victoria Embankment (mile 24) these will be manned by volunteers and we do not recommend you go to those points on race day. This is because these areas are extremely busy and it can take a long time to move through the crowds. By skipping Tower Bridge, you have more chance of seeing your runner at multiple points on the route, and by going straight to mile 25 from 19 you’ll cheer them on from the end! START AREA Although it’s advised not to accompany your runner to the start due to the high volumes of people, if you decide to see them off, please be aware that spectators will not be allowed into the assembly areas of the start. Once you’ve said your farewells and good lucks, head down the Avenue out of Greenwich Park. Once out of the park, turn left onto Nevada Street and keep walking as it turns into Burney Street.

Sponsoring Contact Officer: Mark Wild Director Number: 020 3054 4308 Email: [email protected] Information Public classification Summary 1.1 The Mayor published London TravelWatch’s independent report examining the customer impact of ticket office closures on 2 December 2016. 1.2 The review, as promised by the Mayor in his manifesto, considered a range of evidence to determine the customer impact of the ticket office closure programme and other changes to London Underground’s station operating model. London TravelWatch’s report identifies a number of areas requiring improvement. 1.3 In response, we have prepared an action plan to address the recommendations in the report. Work to deliver the plan has commenced immediately and will be adjusted, if necessary, to take into account any feedback from the Board. 1.4 Planned changes include: • clearer focal points for customers seeking help from staff; • changes to uniforms to make staff more visible; • additional ticket machine functionality; and • measures to improve accessibility, including improvements to the “turn up and go” process and a trial of portable hearing loops. 1.5 While not a part of the terms of reference for the review, the action plan will also review staffing numbers and deployment. 1.6 We will provide the Customer Service and Operational Performance Panel with regular updates on the progress of the action plan.

It was one of the streets that Charles Dickens has written about and named it as ‘the Devil’s acre’. However it has since become the epicentre of the British political establishment, situated as it is, literally a stone’s throw from the Houses of Parliament. Architecturally, the area in which Great Peter Street sits has quintessen- tially been described as ‘the essence of Old Westminster’. This exceptional location is surrounded by Grade II listed houses from the 1700s. The building itself is a homage to Georgian architecture and also it is prevalent in the area.

  • A Vulnerability-Based Approach to Human-Mobility Reduction for Countering
    A vulnerability-based approach to human-mobility reduction for countering COVID-19 transmission in London while considering local air quality Manu Sasidharan1*+, Ajit Singh2, 3*+, Mehran Eskandari Torbaghan4*, Ajith Kumar Parlikad1 1Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, CB2 1PZ, United Kingdom 5 2School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B15 2TT, United Kingdom. 3Institute of Applied Health Research, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B15 2TT, United Kingdom. 4Department of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, 10 Birmingham, B15 2TT, United Kingdom. *Correspondence to: [email protected] (M.S.); [email protected] (A.S.); [email protected] (M.E.T.) + Equal contribution 15 1 20 Abstract An ecologic analysis was conducted to explore the correlation between air pollution, and COVID- 19 cases and fatality rates in London. The analysis demonstrated a strong correlation (R2>0.7) between increment in air pollution and an increase in the risk of COVID-19 transmission within London boroughs. Particularly, strong correlations (R2>0.72) between the risk of COVID-19 25 fatality and nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter pollution concentrations were found. Although this study assumed the same level of air pollution across a particular London borough, it demonstrates the possibility to employ air pollution as an indicator to rapidly identify the city’s vulnerable regions. Such an approach can inform the decisions to suspend or reduce the operation of different public transport modes within a city. The methodology and learnings from 30 the study can thus aid in public transport’s response to COVID-19 outbreak by adopting different levels of human-mobility reduction strategies based on the vulnerability of a given region.

  • A Walk Through Westminster
    A walk through Westminster Updated: 8 March 2019 Length: About 2¼ miles Duration: Around 3½ hours BACKGROUND Westminster has been at the centre of religion, royalty and political power for over a thousand years, and this walk covers each of these. The original area on which the Houses of Parliament and the Abbey were built lies on what was called Thorney Island. This was just marshy land where the River Tyburn, which rises in Hampstead, flowed into the Thames. It is known as the ‘City of Westminster’ because for a short while the Abbey was classified as a cathedral – in the same way that the City of London is called a city because of St Paul’s. (The reason for it being called a cathedral is further explained in the notes and appendix.) WHERE TO START THE WALK The walk starts outside Westminster tube station, which is served by the Jubilee, Circle and District Lines. The station was rebuilt to accommodate the Jubilee Line in a rather futuristic and ‘brutalist’ style of architecture (which in this instance I rather like). There are also numerous bus routes that serve the area. 1 BEFORE YOU BEGIN THE WALK … A few words on the River Thames and Westminster Bridge The bridge and the River Thames are just 100 yards or so away from the station, where the walk begins. So, if you would like to take a look at them first, then leave the station via Exit 1. Cross the Embankment, passing the statue of Boadicea and her daughters on a chariot. It was erected in in 1902, though not without some controversy as although she may have ‘tried to defend our shores by attacking the Roman invaders’, in doing so she hung, burnt and crucified tens of thousands of innocent people.
