  • London Underground - 150 Years and Beyond
    A London Councils Member briefing January 2014 London Underground - 150 Years and Beyond 2013 saw celebrations of 150 years of an underground railway in London. The underground has changed and shaped the way people live in the capital and this anniversary has provided Transport for London with the opportunity to set out a vision for its future. Overview This briefing summarises Transport for London’s (TfL) vision for the future of the underground (Tube). Gareth Powell, Director of Strategy at London Underground, gave a presentation to the meeting of the Transport and Environment Committee on 12 December 2013. He stated London Underground’s priorities for the future are: • Keeping London Moving- Reliability and safely • Keeping London Growing - Capacity from the current network and from growing the network • Making Life in London Better - Customer service where every journey matters The vision also includes five commitments to Londoners: 1. Introduce a new 24-hour Tube service at weekends 2. Further improve the reliability and capacity of services 3. All Tube stations are controlled and staffed while services operating 4. Make journeys easier for customers – supported by technology 5. Deliver improvements with the best possible value for money Analysis For 150 years the Tube has been constantly evolving to meet the needs of Londoners. Today, the Tube travels 43 million miles and carries over one billion passengers a year. There have been many key milestones since it first opened in 1863, 10 are highlighted below: 1890 First deep level electric Tube railway in the world and access to platforms by hydaulic lift 1905-38 The Tube reshapes suburban London, including the development of ‘Metroland’ 1968-69 First computer-controlled underground railway in the world, with automatic trains and ticket gates 1977 First airport link for the Tube, with Picadilly line extension to Heathrow Central (terminals 1,2 and 3).

  • Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Haworth Tompkins
    Conservation Management Plan For The National Theatre Final Draft December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Final Draft - December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Ltd 19-20 Great Sutton Street London EC1V 0DR Front Cover: Haworth Tompkins Ltd 2008 Theatre Square entrance, winter - HTL 2008 Foreword When, in December 2007, Time Out magazine celebrated the National Theatre as one of the seven wonders of London, a significant moment in the rising popularity of the building had occurred. Over the decades since its opening in 1976, Denys Lasdun’s building, listed Grade II* in 1994. has come to be seen as a London landmark, and a favourite of theatre-goers. The building has served the NT company well. The innovations of its founders and architect – the ampleness of the foyers, the idea that theatre doesn’t start or finish with the rise and fall of the curtain – have been triumphantly borne out. With its Southbank neighbours to the west of Waterloo Bridge, the NT was an early inhabitant of an area that, thirty years later, has become one of the world’s major cultural quarters. The river walk from the Eye to the Design Museum now teems with life - and, as they pass the National, we do our best to encourage them in. The Travelex £10 seasons and now Sunday opening bear out the theatre’s 1976 slogan, “The New National Theatre is Yours”. Greatly helped by the Arts Council, the NT has looked after the building, with a major refurbishment in the nineties, and a yearly spend of some £2million on fabric, infrastructure and equipment.

  • Victoria Embankment Between Waterloo and Westminster Bridges 177
    20 River Prospect: Victoria Embankment 175 between Waterloo and Westminster Bridges 341 This River Prospect is a continual experience from Westminster Bridge to Waterloo Bridge. Sir Joseph Bazalgette, the Victorian engineer, embanked the Thames here in 1864-70 providing for the London Underground and upgraded sewers. A broad thoroughfare for vehicles and pedestrians was also created. Gardens were established on the landward side and avenues of trees planted. The Viewing Place provides a promenade when walking between the Palace of Westminster and Somerset House and via Waterloo Bridge to the cultural attractions of the South Bank. 176 London View Management Framework 342 There are two Viewing Locations between Waterloo Bridge and Westminster Bridge. The first of these, 20A, is located between Westminster Bridge and the Golden Jubilee/Hungerford Footbridges. The second, 20B, is located further north between the Golden Jubilee/Hungerford Footbridges and Waterloo Bridge.

  • London Life Hack: Joanna's Journeys
    London Life Hack: Joanna’s journeys Hi! I’m Joanna and I’m a Study Abroad Peer Advisor. In the four years that I have been living in London, I have spent a lot of time on the tube, on buses and on trains. Keep reading for my tips for getting around the city (and beyond!) like a true Londoner! Recognise this? Chances are, you’ll see a lot of this map during your time in London. It’s the Transport for London underground map – or TFL as you’ll get used to calling it. At first, it may look confusing but once you get the hang of it, it’s easy to understand. The map is split into different tube lines according to colour, such as the black Northern Line or the grey Jubilee Line. The map also displays the different zones of the underground system, starting with zone 1 which is central London, up to zone 9 (I have to say, I have never ventured this far!) Peak times are Monday to Friday from 06:30 to 09:30 and 16:00 to 19:00 – off-peak fares apply at all other times. Peak times are the busiest, so if you don’t want to spend time squashed up against strangers, try to avoid taking the tube at this time! The tube and buses are the modes of transport that I use the most, but there is also the London Overground, the Docklands Light Railway (DLR), trams and even riverboats. If you’re feeling adventurous, there are also Santander bicycles for hire at points across the city.

  • Chapter 5 242–276 Oxford Street John Prince's Street to Holles Street
    DRAFT Chapter 5 242–276 Oxford Street John Prince’s Street to Holles Street A block-size commercial development dating from 1959–63 dominates this section of Oxford Street today, stretching back to encompass frontages facing John Prince’s and Holles Streets and half the south side of Cavendish Square. Very typical for its period, it consists mostly of offices and shops. The presence of the London College of Fashion over the Oxford Street front adds a dash of more adventurous architecture. Early history This was among the first sections of the Cavendish-Harley estate to attract building, early in the reign of George I. In connection with the plan to begin that development in and round Cavendish Square, the whole block was leased in 1719 by the Cavendish-Harley trustees to John Prince, so-called master builder, and the Estate’s steward, Francis Seale. But Seale soon died, and Prince’s ambitions seem to have gone unrealized, though he was still active in the 1730s. As a result it took the best part of two decades for the block to be completed by the usual variety of building tradesmen.1 An undated plan shows the layout as first completed, with the apportionment of property between Seale’s executors and Prince apparently indicated. The first development along the frontage may have been inhibited by existing buildings around Nibbs’s Pound at the corner of John Prince’s Street (Princes Street until 1953); it seems that the pound continued in Survey of London © Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London Website: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/architecture/research/survey-london 1 DRAFT existence for some years thereafter, though eventually the Nibbs name was transferred to the pound at the bottom of Marylebone Lane.

It also ran afoul of the contract with train operators. During the 2012 Olympics, however, the system operated for longer hours, and the network coped well, so it was realised that night running might well be feasible. The Access Transformation Programme, which began around 2012, examined reducing the times allowed for engineering. It was felt that these were allowed because they always had been allowed, and were years out of date.

  • 2013 Sustainability Report
    MEETING THE NEEDS OF A CHANGING WORLD SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2013 CONTENTS 02 Chairman and chief executive officer’s statement 04 About Canary Wharf Group plc 06 Vision and strategy 08 Our stakeholders and key issues 10 Economic development and the community 16 Environment 24 Our people 30 Working collaboratively 34 Performance summary 38 Managing sustainability 41 Independent Assurance Statement ENVIRONMENT p16 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND THE COMMUNITY p10 WELCOME Over a quarter of a century ago, the site of Canary Wharf was largely derelict. What had once been part of Britain’s greatest docklands had lost out as shipping technology changed and many associated trades and industries moved elsewhere. But there were new opportunities ahead – for local communities and London’s business sector. At the time Canary Wharf Group (the Group) investigated regenerating the Docklands, there was unprecedented demand for large electronic trading floors and the offices and staff to support them. To help meet this new need, we designed and built Canary Wharf – a project that we hoped would also improve the local environment and create opportunities for neighbouring communities. Twenty-five years on, we continue to: • Plan, design and build sustainable new structures – and improve existing buildings – to create optimal spaces for an increasingly diverse range of tenants, occupiers, shoppers and workers • Manage the existing Estate to continually meet users’ needs efficiently and sustainably • Work with our neighbours to maximise job and business opportunities. We are expanding. Beyond Canary Wharf itself, we are building the iconic 20 Fenchurch Street in the City of London. We have also submitted plans to develop the Shell Centre in Lambeth, as well as a site immediately to the east of Canary Wharf in our home borough of Tower Hamlets.
