  • Walks Programme: July to September 2021
    LONDON STROLLERS WALKS PROGRAMME: JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2021 NOTES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING COVID-19: Following discussions with Ramblers’ Central Office, it has been confirmed that as organized ‘outdoor physical activity events’, Ramblers’ group walks are exempt from other restrictions on social gatherings. This means that group walks in London can continue to go ahead. Each walk is required to meet certain requirements, including maintenance of a register for Test and Trace purposes, and completion of risk assessments. There is no longer a formal upper limit on numbers for walks; however, since Walk Leaders are still expected to enforce social distancing, and given the difficulties of doing this with large numbers, we are continuing to use a compulsory booking system to limit numbers for the time being. Ramblers’ Central Office has published guidance for those wishing to join group walks. Please be sure to read this carefully before going on a walk. It is available on the main Ramblers’ website at www.ramblers.org.uk. The advice may be summarised as: - face masks must be carried and used, for travel to and from a walk on public transport, and in case of an unexpected incident; - appropriate social distancing must be maintained at all times, especially at stiles or gates; - you should consider bringing your own supply of hand sanitiser, and - don’t share food, drink or equipment with others. Some other important points are as follows: 1. BOOKING YOUR PLACE ON A WALK If you would like to join one of the walks listed below, please book a place by following the instructions given below.

  • Hopcroft Neighbourhood Plan
    Your Future Neighbourhood The Neighbourhood Plan For Crofton Park and Honor Oak Park (HopCroft Plan) 2017-2027 Submission Version – May 2019 Acknowledgements The Crofton Park and Honor Oak Park Neighbourhood Plan has been prepared with the assistance of the consultants Changing Cities and Urban Silence on behalf of the HopCroft Neighbourhood Forum. In particular we owe warm thanks to Joanna Chambers (of Changing Cities), who worked with dedication and patience on the drafting of the text, and on the necessary research for it, and then attended many meetings of the Forum and the Steering Group. Martina Juvara of Urban Silence drew the maps. This draft plan has also been made possible by the dedication of the Neighbourhood Forum Steering Group who have devoted many hours of volunteer time in making it happen. We were fortunate to have our own resident planner: Kay Pallaris, as Secretary to the Forum from the start until 2018, made an invaluable and unique contribution to the preparation of the Plan, to piloting it through the complex processes of consultation and amendment, and to many other tasks. Other helpful contributions were made by Tony Rich and Ann Dunton. After Kay’s departure, Nicholas Taylor and Anna-Maria Cahalane-MacGuinness ensured that the final copy of this document could be published gremlin-free and typo-free.

  • Bromley May 2018
    Traffic noise maps of public parks in Bromley May 2018 This document shows traffic noise maps for parks in the borough. The noise maps are taken from http://www.extrium.co.uk/noiseviewer.html. Occasionally, google earth or google map images are included to help the reader identify where the park is located. Similar documents are available for all London Boroughs. These were created as part of research into the impact of traffic noise in London’s parks. They should be read in conjunction with the main report and data analysis which are available at http://www.cprelondon.org.uk/resources/item/2390-noiseinparks. The key to the traffic noise maps is shown here to the right. Orange denotes noise of 55 decibels (dB). Louder noises are denoted by reds and blues with dark blue showing the loudest. Where the maps appear with no colour and are just grey, this means there is no traffic noise of 55dB or above.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions. The All London Green Grid SPG was developed in parallel with the area frameworks it can be found at the following link: http://www. london.gov.uk/publication/all-london-green-grid-spg .
