  • Air Quality Action Plan for the Royal Borough of Kingston Upon Thames
    Air Quality Action Plan For the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management JULY 2016 SUMMARY This document revises the Council’s current Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) that was published in 2005 and outlines the actions we will take to prevent deterioration of, and ultimately improve, air quality in the Borough between January 2016 and December 2021. Our medium term plan, ‘Destination Kingston’ sets out our aim of making Kingston fit for modern living - an attractive place to live and work. This plan supports a number of the Destination Kingston 2015-2019 themes and objectives, with clean air and a healthy environment being a fundamental requirement for our communities to live, work and grow. The AQAP also supports a key element of the Our Kingston Programme, established in July 2015 and setting out how the Council will deliver the vision set out in Destination Kingston. Actions to improve Air Quality sit well within Community Outcome 7 established within the programme, which seeks a ‘sustainable borough with a diverse transport network and quality environment for all to enjoy’. Air quality assessments undertaken by the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames identified that the Government's air quality objective for annual mean nitrogen dioxide and daily mean particulates (PM10) were not being met within the Borough (as with most of London) by the target dates. As a consequence, the Council designated an Air Quality Management Area (AQMA) across the whole of the Borough and produced an Air Quality Action Plan in recognition of the legal requirement on the Council to work towards air quality objectives; as required under Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 and the relevant air quality regulations.

  • 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.
