  • Rt Hon Oliver Dowden CBE MP
    Rt Hon Oliver Dowden CBE MP Member of Parliament for Hertsmere End of Parliament Report – November 2019 As this Parliament reaches its conclusion, I wanted to write to you to update you on my work over the previous four years as your Member of Parliament. As always, a report of this length cannot cover everything so to see more of what I have been working on please do visit my Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or website where I regularly share posts and updates. Transport After my four year long campaign, Oyster was delivered to Potters Bar and Radlett in August. This enables people to travel easily and more flexibly, and I formally opened the system with the Transport Secretary at Radlett Station. I’ve also made progress securing upgrades to transport facilities across the constituency. After pressing Thameslink, Elstree and Borehamwood Station has been completely overhauled, including a much-needed wider entrance and re-furbished concourse. Moreover, a £300m Government investment into Thameslink’s infrastructure has delivered improvements along the whole line. Potters Bar and Radlett will be receiving money from the £15m Passenger Benefit Fund and I successfully pushed Govia Thameslink to speed the roll-out of new, larger and more modern carriages to improve passenger journeys. At the same time I continue to meet regularly with representatives from London Northwestern about improvements to Bushey Station, including more toilets, shelters and bike racks. I know the service on Thameslink and Great Northern has at times been completely unacceptable. I commute and know first-hand the frustration and anger caused by the timetable chaos last year.

Young People of the Year (“YOPEY”) Is a campaign to give young people a fairer image in the media and society as a whole by revealing, recognising and rewarding young unsung heroes. Yavneh College’s Keshet Dor age 13 won the Hertfordshire Junior Young Person of the Year 2015 at a ceremony on 10 November 2015. Keshet plans and runs services every Saturday for up to 10 youngsters, aged three to seven, at Elstree and Borehamwood Masorti Community Synagogue. Keshet also spends one day a week reading to an 11-year-old boy who struggles to walk and is unable to speak. Following her Bat Mitzvah last year, Keshet gave the £300 she received as gifts to help Kisharon buy computer software to help an adult who has communication difficulties. The competition judges, included Hertsmere Mayor Martin Worster as well as other members of the distinguished audience and past YOPEY finalists, said: “Keshet has proved that if you put your mind and heart to something you love doing then anything is achievable regardless of age.” Visit from Mrs Nicky Morgan MP We were delighted and honoured to welcome the Secretary of State for Education, the Rt Hon.

  • Local List Introduction
    List of Locally Important Buildings in Hertsmere 2016 List of Locally Important Buildings in Hertsmere 2016 List of Locally Important Buildings in Hertsmere 2016 1 Introduction and Policy Background LOCAL POLICY BACKGROUND Hertsmere Borough Council recognises that the protection of Hertsmere’s unique stock of buildings that contribute significantly to the quality of the built environment need to be given a high priority. Therefore in response to Policy E18 of the Hertsmere Local Plan adopted in 2003 (page 162) a list of locally important buildings was drafted between February 2006 and May 2007. 2003 LOCAL PLAN POLICY E18 ‘Buildings of Local Interest’ This Saved Policy states; “From time to time, as resources permit, the council will compile a list of buildings of local architectural or historic interest. They will be subject to the same conservation standards as statutorily listed buildings in so far as planning controls allow. Development proposals affecting a building included on the list will be expected to respect the appearance and character of the building and its setting”. 2015 LOCAL PLAN POLICY ‘SADM 30 – Heritage Assets’ Recent policy background to locally listed buildings comprises ‘SADM 30 – Heritage Assets’ from HBC’s ‘Site Allocation and Development Management Policies Plan’, published July 2015, now submitted for Examination. This sits under the Adopted Core Strategy Policy CS14 (Adopted January 2013). However, SADM 30 should be used in conjunction with the earlier Policy E18, which currently carries more weight than SADM 30. It states; “List of Locally Important Buildings – Development proposals affecting a building included on this list will be expected to maintain or improve the appearance and character of the building, and its setting.

  • Pack Introduction
    All Change! 150 Years of the Railway in Elstree and Borehamwood. British railways are the oldest in the world and their arrival, in the early 19th century, revolutionised the way that people lived. According to one contemporary observer they 'set all the towns of Britain a-dancing'. Perhaps the closest modern day comparison is the age of the internet and the ability to communicate and conduct business in every corner of the world. Before the very first railway opened, between Liverpool and Manchester, in 1830, Britain had hardly changed in centuries. It was a rural country, dominated by agriculture, and most of the population were born, lived and died in the communities where their family had probably lived for generations. Travel was for the rich. Roads were mostly in poor shape - rutted in good conditions; muddy and impassable after heavy rains. People were accustomed to walking long distances, and it was not unusual for labourers to walk 6 miles to work. Wagons and canal barges were the only ways to transport raw materials and finished products. Both methods were difficult and time consuming, involving weeks of delay in the winter months. Sunrise dictated the time of day and as a result it varied across the country. At that time, Elstree and Boreham Wood (as it was known then) were typical farming communities with a combined population of less than 300 people living in just 50 houses. In addition to farming, Elstree served as a ‘watering hole’ on the London to St Albans route and four stage coaches called there daily.
