  • Spaces Wild, London Wildlife Trust
    SPACES WILD championing the values of London’s wildlife sites Protecting London’s wildlife for the future Foreword London is a remarkably green city supporting a wide diversity of habitats and species. Almost half of its area is blue and green space, and almost a fifth – covering over 1,500 different sites - is of sufficient value to biodiversity to be identified worthy of protection. These wildlife sites consist of much more than nature reserves, ranging from wetlands to chalk downs that are often valued by the local community for uses other than habitat. They have been established for almost 30 years, and as a network they provide the foundations for the conservation and enhancement of London’s wildlife, and the opportunity for people to experience the diversity of the city’s nature close to hand. They are a fantastic asset, but awareness of wildlife sites – the Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINCs) – is low amongst the public (compared to, say, the Green Belt). There is understandable confusion between statutory wildlife sites and those identified through London’s planning process. In addition the reasons why SINCs have been identified SINCs cover 19.3% of the are often difficult to find out. With London set to grow to 10 million people by 2030 the pressures on our wildlife Greater London area sites will become profound. I have heard of local authorities being forced to choose between saving a local park and building a school. Accommodating our growth without causing a decline in the quality of our natural assets will be challenging; we have a target to build an estimated 42,000 homes a year in the capital merely to keep up with demand.

A pleasant path meanders around the reserve. The reserve is normally open. Return to the entrance and go left along Bollo Lane – a pedestrian footbridge is planned for people using Chiswick Park station and going to Chiswick Business Park. It will then not be necessary to walk along Bollo Lane to the level crosssing.

    More than just a driver 44 ........... Other road users 46 ........... Using the public address (PA) system 49 ...........Pre-recorded announcements 43 More than just a driver More than just a driver Being a professional bus driver requires more than just giving your passengers a safe, smooth ride. This section gives you guidance on other aspects of your job which will help you keep up your status as a professional. More than just a driver Other road users 44 Other road users There are many more cyclists using London’s roads and you should take special care to ensure you are aware of cyclists at all times. Look out for Barclays Cycle Superhighways across the Capital, and Barclays Cycle Hire users in central and eastern areas. 1. Give all cyclists space as you overtake (about half the width of your bus, or 1.2m) and do not cut in on cyclists as you approach bus stops. 45 More than just a driver Other road users 2. Do not stop in the Advanced Stop Box. It must be left clear for cyclists. 3. Remember to watch out for motorcyclists, who can now use certain bus lanes. 4. Watch out for pedestrians and keep your speed low. Use dipped headlights, especially in contra-flow bus lanes and central areas, such as Oxford Street or Piccadilly. Your company may ask you to use dipped headlights at all times. 5. At road junctions, be aware of other large vehicles such as lorries. Like buses, they need a wide area to turn. 6. Remember, taxis can use bus lanes so be prepared to stop if they are picking up or setting down passengers.

  • Crossrail 1 Corridor 6 (Richmond/Kingston/Norbiton) Proposal
    Crossrail 1 Corridor 6 (Richmond/Kingston/Norbiton) Proposal Response by London Borough of Hounslow February 2003 Crossrail 1 Corridor 6 (Richmond/Kingston/Norbiton) Proposal: Response by London Borough of Hounslow February 2003 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Context This submission constitutes the London Borough of Hounslow’s response to an invitation to provide initial comments on the Crossrail project’s proposal for a new corridor for Crossrail 1: Corridor 6 – Norbiton, via Old Oak Common, Acton, Chiswick, Richmond and Kingston. The submission considers the proposal in terms of service and amenity for the borough’s residents and businesses, and within the context of the Council’s published policies. In addition to the two options that constitute the Corridor 6 proposals, this submission provides two further options for Crossrail’s consideration. While the Council must record its disappointment that an effective period of less than two weeks was offered for preparation of this submission, the Council also wishes to record its appreciation for the assistance given by the Crossrail consultation team during the preparation of the submission. 1.2 Council Policies The London Borough of Hounslow Unitary Development Plan’s objectives relating to transport and land use development are summarised below: • To promote sustainable transport modes (walking, cycling, public and waterborne transport) which improves access for all members of the community and enhances public transport provision in London as a whole, while reducing car traffic and the demand for road space. • To encourage a pattern of land use, and provision of transport which minimises harm to the environment and reduces the need to travel, especially by car, whilst maximising development opportunities in the Borough.

  • Gunnersbury Park Conservation Area
    GUNNERSBURY PARK AND SURROUNDING AREA Boundary: See Map 7 Date of Designation: 20 November 1990 Date of alteration or extension: None Additional protection to the area: Listed status of Mansions, and Park buildings and features; the grounds are Gardens are Grade Il* on the English Heritage Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest. The Park as a whole is administered by a joint management committee, which includes funding and representation from London Borough of Ealing as well as of Hounslow. Many of the buildings are included on the English Heritage Buildings at Risk Register. The Park is a Nature Conservation Area. The Gunnersbury Park Garden Estate housing area (“Gunnersbury Triangle”) has Article 4(2) status, directed 24 July 2001. Special Architectural and/or Historic Interest The boundary of the conservation area was drawn to focus upon two areas; firstly, the Gunnersbury Park/Kensington Cemetery area of open land based on the Mansions and earlier great house, and, secondly, the Gunnersbury Park residential estate which lies opposite and to the east. The mansion, small mansion, garden buildings, outbuildings and park have been highlighted by statutory listing. The Park is also on the Register of Parks and Gardens by English Heritage. Gunnersbury Park Garden Estate (often known as Gunnersbury Triangle Estate, but not the nature reserve of the same name near Chiswick Park station) was considered to be a complete and relatively unspoilt example of a 1920’s garden suburb estate. The shopping parade was included because it formed part of the Gunnersbury Estate. Lionel Road and Popes Lane were included because they back onto the park and any alterations or extensions would impact on the park and its skyline.
