206, 224, PR2 Summary of Responses Consultation on possible changes to routes 206, 224 and PR2 Summary of responses September 2011 Contents Section Page 1 Introduction 3 2 The consultation 3 3 Responses from members of the public 5 4 Responses from statutory bodies and other 10 stakeholders Appendices A Copy of the consultation letter 13 B St Raphael’s Estate letter drop 17 C List of stakeholders consulted 18 2 1. Introduction The bus network is under regular review. Services in and around Park Royal and Wembley have been reviewed and a number of changes are proposed. • Route 206 would be diverted at Brent Park to Wembley Park and The Paddocks. • Route 224 would be diverted at Harlesden Station to Brentfield Road and the St Raphael’s Estate. • Route PR2 would be withdrawn. These proposals were designed to support continued provision of a comprehensive transport network, taking account of current usage and plans for development in the area. 2. The consultation 2.1 About the consultation: Stakeholder and public consultation on the proposals took place between 11 July and 19 August 2011. The key benefits of the proposals are: • More frequent service for many users with higher capacity in and around Wembley Park, the St Raphael’s Estate and Brentfield Road. • A more direct link between St Raphael’s and central Park Royal. • Introducing new Sunday services. • Better links to other modes of transport. Some direct links in the current network would no longer be provided. TfL asked the following questions: • What modes of transport do you use? • If you use buses, what are the main reasons for using them? • Please let us know what bus routes you take and how often? • Do you support the proposed changes to route PR2? • Do you support the proposed changes to route 206? • Do you support the proposed changed to route 224? • Do you think you would use public transport more or less if the changes went ahead? • Please let us know any further comments or suggestions you may have regarding these proposals. 3 2.2 Who we consulted The public consultation was intended to seek the views of people who lived near to the proposed route, current users of the service and potential users. We also consulted stakeholders including the London Boroughs of Brent, Ealing and Harrow, traffic police, London TravelWatch, Members of Parliament, Assembly Members and local interest groups. A list of the stakeholders we consulted is shown in Appendix C and a summary of their responses is in section 4. 2.3 Consultation material, distribution and publicity Website Content from the leaflet was displayed on the TfL website, along with an online form allowing users to respond to the questions and submit additional comments. Bus Stops The consultation was advertised at bus stops along the routes. Press Advertisements were published in the local press Letter A letter was distributed to addresses in the St Raphael’s Estate. People could respond by letter, telephone, textphone, email or web. Braille, audio and large font versions of the consultation material were available, as was a translation service to other languages. 4 3. Responses from members of the public We asked seven consultation questions and invited respondents to add further comments. There were 573 public responses to the consultation, not all respondents chose to answer all of the questions. 19 responded by post, 548 responded online, four responded via email, and two responded via the TfL Call Centre. Responses are summarised below. 3.1 Public consultation results Q1. What modes of transport do you use? 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 Bus Train Tube Cycle Walk Car Q2.

Issue Total There should be a higher frequency of bus services 41 Route(s) should be extended to Kingsbury 12 Waiting times are too high 7 Route(s) should serve Stonebridge Park Station 6 Bigger buses should be used 5 Routes should serve The Paddocks 5 24 hour bus service would be beneficial 3 Brentfield Road should be hail and ride 2 Route 206 should have a traditional timetabled schedule (i.e. not a bus will arrive every 10-15 minutes) 1 Bus route 440 should be extended to Wembley Arena 1 9 4. Responses from statutory bodies and other stakeholders TfL had nine responses from Stakeholders and these are summarised below: The London Borough of Brent Brent officers stated that the changes represent an improvement in a number of respects. It would also provide links from the south of Brent to the new Civic Centre. A further extension of route 206 northwards to Queensbury was suggested (or route 305 extended southwards from Queensbury). There are concerns that Hillside in Stonebridge would lose its direct link to both Central Middlesex Hospital and Brent Park. Could route 223 be extended to Northwick Park Hospital and Harrow from North Wembley to allow passengers to make a direct journey? Councillor Daniel Brown – London Borough of Brent Could route 440 be extended from Stonebridge via Harrow Rd and Brentfield Road to avoid the loss of service from Stonebridge Park/Harrow Road to Brent Park Tesco’s. Other than that these are reasonable proposals Caroline Pidgeon – London Assembly Member Could route 223 be extended to Northwick Park as this will improve access to the local hospital for many people in the Wembley/Sudbury area. Navin Shah – London Assembly Member The increase in capacity and frequency for passengers in the Wembley area is welcome. It would be beneficial for local residents if the 206 could be extended to terminate at Queensbury Station to give an easier link to Central Middlesex Hospital. Route 223 is shown on the map along Empire Way instead of Wembley Park Drive. Residents currently use this route as a quick way to get from Preston Road to Wembley Central but the proposed changes will lengthen the journey time. Furthermore, a number of buses already serve Empire Way. Barry Gardiner – Member of Parliament for Brent North On behalf of the Chairman at BAPS Swaminarayan Mandir Temple, the temple and the devotees are quite supportive of the changes. However, could route 206 be extended to Queensbury Station, or at least at the Kingsbury roundabout. This will benefit devotees as well as residents, who travel to Central Middlesex Hospital and other local amenities. The London Borough of Ealing LB Ealing officers have no objection to the proposals. If the proposals are implemented, they should be closely monitored and reviewed regularly. Councillor Zaffar Van Kalwala – London Borough of Brent These changes are an improvement on the present arrangements, particularly with regard to improving links to the borough’s new Civic Centre and surrounding developments. However, there are some reservations. 10 The Swaminarayan Temple on Brentfield Road attracts a great number of worshippers and tourists. A significant number live in the north of the borough (Kingsbury area). The temple is also a ‘London Landmark’ for the London 2012 Olympics. Could route 206 be further extended to terminate at ideally Queensbury Station or the Kingsbury roundabout. Or could route 305 be extended from its present terminus at Kingsbury Circle to Central Middlesex Hospital, along Fryent Way and The Paddocks, Wembley Park, Great Central Way and Brentfield Road. North West London Hospitals Trust – NHS The North West London Hospitals NHS Trust is responsible for Central Middlesex and Northwick Park Hospitals and encourages staff, patients and visitors to use public transport, cycling, walking and car sharing whenever possible.

  • 1 Decision of the Election Committee on a Due Impartiality Complaint Brought by the Respect Party in Relation to the London Deba
    Decision of the Election Committee on a due impartiality complaint brought by the Respect Party in relation to The London Debate ITV London, 5 April 2016 LBC 97.3 , 5 April 2016 1. On Friday 29 April 2016, Ofcom’s Election Committee (“the Committee”)1 met to consider and adjudicate on a complaint made by the Respect Party in relation to its candidate for the London Mayoral election, George Galloway (“the Complaint”). The Complaint was about the programme The London Debate, broadcast in ITV’s London region on ITV, and on ITV HD and ITV+1 at 18:00 on Tuesday 5 April 2016 (“the Programme”). The Programme was broadcast simultaneously by LBC on the local analogue radio station LBC 97.3, as well as nationally on DAB radio and on digital television (as a radio channel). 2. The Committee consisted of the following members: Nick Pollard (Chair, Member of the Ofcom Content Board); Dame Lynne Brindley DBE (Member of the Ofcom Board and Content Board); Janey Walker (Member of the Ofcom Content Board); and Tony Close (Ofcom Director with responsibility for Content Standards, Licensing and Enforcement and Member of the Ofcom Content Board). 3. For the reasons set out in this decision, having considered all of the submissions and evidence before it under the relevant provisions of the Broadcasting Code (“the Code”), the Committee decided not to uphold the Respect Party’s complaint. The Committee found that in respect of ITV the broadcast of the Programme complied with the requirements of the Code. In the case of LBC, the Programme did not a contain list of candidates in the 2016 London Mayoral election (in audio form) and LBC therefore breached Rule 6.11.

Tips for using Twitter and Facebook at the Clean Air for Children London Question Time event ● Use our ‘How to find your elected representatives in England’ guide to identify your local representatives. Make a list of who you want to tweet at and share Facebook posts or messages with and search for them a few days before the event, these might include: ✓ Your MP ✓ Mayor of London - @MayorofLondon ✓ Your ward councillors ✓ Your Council Leader ✓ Your London Assembly Member ✓ Chairs/Deputy Chairs of the London Assembly’s Transport and Environment Committees ▪ Environment ▪ Chair: Caroline Russell - @CarolineRussell ▪ Deputy Chair: Leonie Cooper - @LeonieC ▪ Transport ▪ Chair: Caroline Pidgeon - @CarolinePidgeon ▪ Deputy Chair: Florence Eshalomi - @FloEshalomi ✓ Your borough council (search under the name of your borough and twitter, e.g., LB Camden Twitter, LB Hounslow Twitter) ● Keep your tone positive and respectful even if you are being challenging or critical. ● Use the hashtags #cleanairforchildren and #Llondon ● If you have enough characters remaining in your tweets, it might be good to add in #cleanair or #airpollution into your tweets so they are picked up and retweeted by a larger audience. ● Tag or retweet to the @ClientEarth and @lunguk Twitter accounts. ● If you are directing your tweet at somebody in particular, make sure that others can also see it by putting a full-stop before their Twitter account name to start the message, e.g.: “.@[yourMP] will you... “. ● If posting on Facebook, focusing on your ‘personal pollution story’ could win more likes and shares – write about how dirty air in your area affects you, your children and your community and why this has led you to call for action.

  • Harlesden Neighbourhood Plan
    Appendix A: Harlesden Neighbourhood Plan HARLESDEN NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN 2019 - 2034 May 2019 Images in this document produced by Harlesden Neighbourhood Hood Forum unless otherwise stated. With thanks to Crisis Brent Community Researcher volunteers and photography group, as well as to our Forum members, local volunteers and all those who have contributed to the preparation of this document. A welcome from the Chair of the Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum Welcome to the Harlesden Neighbourhood Plan - a vision of how Harlesden can develop and grow over the next fifteen years whilst preserving its distinct heritage. Policies within the Neighbourhood Plan are restricted to matters amenable to planning – primarily the built, physical environment. The Plan’s remit does not extend to local services, cultural and arts activities or economic development, although of course planning policies can contribute to the protection and growth of all these things. Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum’s ambitions for our area however go far beyond planning policy. We hope you will continue to engage with the development of the Plan and work of the Forum throughout the formal process and beyond. Beyond the Plan we are keen to develop an exciting and unique offer for visitors and residents alike based on Harlesden’s cultural and artistic diversity. Harlesden is a colourful, neighbourhood in north west London, home to people from across the world, where you can sample a dizzying range of cultures and cuisines from Brazilian to Polish, Trinidadian to Somali. Where, in a single visit, you can pop into some of the best Caribbean food stores in London, admire the beauty and history of Harlesden’s churches or enjoy the outdoors in beautiful Roundwood Park or one of our newly regenerated pocket parks.
