This folder of documents includes the adopted Core Strategy and will include further Development Plan Documents (DPDs), such as this Development Management Development Plan Document (DMDPD) and the Site Allocations DPD. The DMDPD will build on the Core Strategy and will include more detailed local policies for the management of development. It will provide a detailed set of policies, which will be designed to contribute to achieving the LDF’s vision, Core Strategy objectives and its core policies. -

Author(s): Benoît Jones Article Title: Underpassing of Angel Underground by London Ring Main Extension Tunnel Year of publication: 2011 Link to published article: http://dx.doi.org/10.4417/IJGCH-02-02-02 Publisher statement: International Journal of Geoengineering Case Histories © Underpassing of Angel Underground by London Ring Main Extension Tunnel Benoît Jones, Senior Engineer, OTB Engineering, London, UK; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: This paper presents the predictions of movements, monitoring methods and measured movements of the Angel Station Upper Escalator and the Northern Line London Underground tunnels during tunnelling for the Thames Water Ring Main Extension Stoke Newington to New River Head (TWRM) tunnel. The earth pressure balance tunnel boring machine was driven from a launch shaft in Stoke Newington in an approximately southerly direction to a reception shaft in Islington, at depths of between 40 and 60 m. Along its route, the TWRM passed near to the Upper Escalator of Angel London Underground station, the longest escalator in western Europe, and soon after passed underneath two operational and one disused Northern Line tunnels. No discernible tunnel-induced movements of the escalator were observed. -
River Wandle Catchment Plan Section 4: Water Quantity and Flow
River Wandle Catchment Plan Section 4: Water Quantity and Flow SECTION 4: WATER QUANTITY AND FLOW “Our Vision is a river full of water that is plentiful and clean, and varied in its flow speeds, widths and depths” Wandle Catchment Plan Objective 1: Water supply in all sections of the river is sufficient to sustain a healthy population of native flora and fauna, and is resilient to risk of drought or flood from extreme weather events or management for human use 4.1: Overview and historic flow records Chalk rivers like the Wandle rely on abundant autumn and winter rainfall (when evaporation and transpiration by trees and plants is reduced) to recharge their ground water aquifers, scour silt away from gravels during high winter flows, and then maintain flows at adequate levels for the rest of the year (English Nature and Environment Agency, 2004). When flows are reduced by abstraction and other pressures such as climate change, the duration of flow in winterbournes is shortened or lost altogether, perennial habitat for fish and other animals is lost, river gravels are choked by algae as a result of increased nutrient concentrations, and pollution events become more damaging because dilution is reduced. Most chalk rivers are located in south eastern England, where population densities are high (and growing) and rainfall is relatively low. In some river catchments, including the Wandle, ground water aquifers have historically been relied upon as a source of clean water for public supply: as a result, today’s flows in the Wandle are considerably reduced from their historic highs.
