We received 663 responses to the consultation, of which 74% supported or partially supported our proposals. Comments from respondents included concern about traffic congestion as a result of the scheme, general support for the scheme, suggested modifications to the proposals for cycling and pedestrian facilities, the impacts on coach services and concerns about banning the right turn from Northumberland Avenue. After considering all responses, we intend to proceed with the scheme as set out in the consultation documents. Commuter coach services will be able to use the existing tour bus stop at Westminster Pier. We also intend to allow commuter coaches to serve the Banqueting House stop on Whitehall as an alternative, subject to discussions with Westminster City Council. This would provide another nearby option for services affected by the removal of bus and coach stop Y on Victoria Embankment. Subject to the formal Traffic Order process and receiving relevant approvals, we plan to start construction work around the Victoria Embankment / Northumberland Avenue junction in July 2015, with completion for the East-West route planned for spring 2016. Works will be phased to minimise impact on the traffic network and will cater for pedestrians, cyclists and other road users as much as possible. We will keep customers and road users informed of our plans and progress, including writing to local residents and businesses before undertaking work in their area. We will also provide road traffic information to help people better plan their journeys and make informed choices about how, where and when they travel. 3 East-West Cycle Superhighway Victoria Embankment / Northumberland Avenue Consultation Response to Consultation 1. Introduction We originally consulted on proposals for the East-West Cycle Superhighway between 3 September 2014 and 9 November 2014. Following the September 2014 consultation, the TfL Board agreed that some changes to the proposals in the original consultation would be subject to further consultation. Between 9 February and 29 March 2015, we consulted on further proposals for certain sections of the East-West Cycle Superhighway. This included revised proposals to aid traffic flow on Victoria Embankment, including the removal or relocation of a bus and coach stop, banning the right turn from Northumberland Avenue to Victoria Embankment (except cyclists from the cycle track) and the removal of a pedestrian crossing. This document explains the processes, responses and outcomes of the consultation, and sets out our response to issues commonly raised. 1.1 Purpose of the scheme Feedback from the September 2014 consultation included concerns about the traffic impact of the scheme. In response to this and following further investigations, we proposed changes to the designs for the Victoria Embankment / Northumberland Avenue junction that would improve its operation and reduce the impact on general traffic. 1.2 Description of the proposals The scheme area for the Northumberland Avenue / Victoria Embankment consultation is part of Section 9 of the original East-West Cycle Superhighway consultation. The scheme area includes the junction of Victoria Embankment and Northumberland Avenue and nearby sections of both roads. Removed bus and coach stop To allow southbound traffic to flow more freely on Victoria Embankment towards the busy Northumberland Avenue junction, southbound bus stop Y on Victoria Embankment near Northumberland Avenue will be removed Our latest analysis shows this will reduce the journey time impacts of the proposals for general traffic on the East-West Cycle Superhighway compared with the previous proposal Bus and coach stop Y is currently used by TfL bus route N550 to Trafalgar Square, Big Bus Tours, The Original Tour, coach routes 771 and 772 to East-West Cycle Superhighway Victoria Embankment / Northumberland Avenue Consultation Response to Consultation 4 Dunstable, Leighton Buzzard and Linslade and any coaches which terminate at Victoria or Vauxhall Coach routes 771 and 772 and any coaches which terminate at Victoria or Vauxhall will be able to use other stops on Victoria Embankment between Bridge Street and Horse Guards Avenue and the Banqueting Hall stop on Whitehall, subject to discussions with Westminster City Council Banned right turn from Northumberland Avenue into Victoria Embankment (except cycles from the cycle track) Banning the right turn from Northumberland Avenue into Victoria Embankment for all vehicles except cyclists using the cycle track will help to keep traffic moving more freely by allowing southbound traffic on Victoria Embankment to pass through the junction at the same time as traffic turning left out of Northumberland Avenue Our latest analysis shows this will reduce the journey time impacts of the proposals for general traffic on the East-West Cycle Superhighway compared with the previous proposal Our latest traffic counts show a maximum of 101 vehicles per hour turning right from Northumberland Avenue into Victoria Embankment in the morning and evening peaks (excluding cycles), compared to a maximum of 603 vehicles per hour turning left from Victoria Embankment into Northumberland Avenue in the morning and evening peaks (excluding cycles) Removing the pedestrian crossing on Victoria Embankment north of Northumberland Avenue Removing the pedestrian crossing on Victoria Embankment north of Northumberland Avenue (under Hungerford Bridge) will help keep traffic flowing more freely through the eastern section of the junction Alternative pedestrian crossings are available either side of the junction - approximately 40 metres south of the junction and approximately 65 metres north (outside Embankment station). These will remain in place Our latest analysis shows this will reduce the journey time impacts of the proposals for general traffic compared with the previous proposal Proposed changes to parking and loading on Victoria Embankment The motorcycle parking on the western side of Victoria Embankment south of Northumberland Avenue will be relocated to the island between the cycle 5 East-West Cycle Superhighway Victoria Embankment / Northumberland Avenue Consultation Response to Consultation track and the carriageway. The new bay will be the same size as the existing bay (35 metres) The riverside loading bay south of Northumberland Avenue will be extended from 11 metres to 15 metres and inset into the segregating island. Operating hours will be reduced, with no loading between 7am – 10am and 4pm – 7pm A new 20 metre inset loading bay will be provided north of bus stop Y. This will also operate with no loading between 7am – 10am and 4pm – 7pm We are extending the time during which vehicles are allowed to stop and load in these loading bays from 20 minutes to 40 minutes Segregated two-way cycle track replaces traffic lanes on Victoria Embankment The cycle track will be at carriageway level on the eastern side of the road and will be between 3.2 and 4.3 metres wide The cycle track will be separated from other traffic by a kerbed island between 1.2 and 3 metres wide No coloured surfacing will be used This will replace two traffic lanes (one southbound and one northbound) on Victoria Embankment Cycle lane replaces one eastbound traffic lane at Northumberland Avenue junction The cycle lane will be advisory across the entrance to Embankment Place to allow vehicles to access this side road The mandatory cycle lane to the south of Embankment Place will be separated from other traffic by a kerbed island 1.2 metres wide at the junction with Victoria Embankment The lane will be between 1.5 and 2 metres wide No coloured surfacing will be used The footway on the south eastern corner will be reduced by 3.8 metres in order to retain the left-turning traffic lane into Northumberland Avenue. A minimum footway width of 4.4 metres will

  • APTG GOES to the TOWER on 4 March Over Three Dozen Members of Twenty Different Travel Trade Organisations Came to See the Ceremony of the Keys As Guests of APTG
    APTG GOES TO THE TOWER On 4 March over three dozen members of twenty different travel trade organisations came to see the Ceremony of the Keys as guests of APTG. They were hosted by a dozen guides, allowing us to share a very fine evening at the Tower and giving us a chance to show our special relationship with HRP and the Yeoman Warders. We funded drinks in the Yeoman Warders’ Club and each guide was given an up to date briefing before the event. This meant we could take the opportunity to explain the breadth of our knowledge, skills and languages combined with the ease of booking via the GuideLondon website. This is one of the ways your Branch Council is bringing work opportunities to APTG members. The evening was an uplifting experience and Yeoman Warder John Donald was a witty and knowledgeable host. The Ceremony was carried out by Gurkhas, commanded there for the first time by a female officer. The final, perfect ending came when the salute was taken by the Constable of the APTG Chair Nick Hancock and Yeoman Warder John Donald Tower General Sir Nicholas Houghton who, in his final words, made specific mention of guides being guests that night. Truly we have friends in high places! Over £300 was raised by the THE TOWER COMES TO APTG raffle for YW chosen charities and Nick Hancock gave an Yeoman Warder and Tower extra £250 from the Guild and APTG. Ravenmaster Chris Skaife (left) gave an entertaining presentation to APTG members MEMBERS OPEN MEETINGS before the March Members’ The next Members Open Meeting will be on Tuesday 9 Open Meeting at the Unite April at 6:30 pm in the Unite Office, WC1X 8TN.

  • The Old War Office Building
    MINISTRY OF DEFENCE The Old War Office Building A history The Old War Office Building …a building full of history Foreword by the Rt. Hon Geoff Hoon MP, Secretary of State for Defence The Old War Office Building has been a Whitehall landmark for nearly a century. No-one can fail to be impressed by its imposing Edwardian Baroque exterior and splendidly restored rooms and stairways. With the long-overdue modernisation of the MOD Main Building, Defence Ministers and other members of the Defence Council – the Department’s senior committee – have moved temporarily to the Old War Office. To mark the occasion I have asked for this short booklet, describing the history of the Old War Office Building, to be published. The booklet also includes a brief history of the site on which the building now stands, and of other historic MOD headquarters buildings in Central London. People know about the work that our Armed Forces do around the world as a force for good. Less well known is the work that we do to preserve our heritage and to look after the historic buildings that we occupy. I hope that this publication will help to raise awareness of that. The Old War Office Building has had a fascinating past, as you will see. People working within its walls played a key role in two World Wars and in the Cold War that followed. The building is full of history. Lawrence of Arabia once worked here. I am now occupying the office which Churchill, Lloyd-George and Profumo once had.

  • A Walk Through Westminster
    A walk through Westminster Updated: 8 March 2019 Length: About 2¼ miles Duration: Around 3½ hours BACKGROUND Westminster has been at the centre of religion, royalty and political power for over a thousand years, and this walk covers each of these. The original area on which the Houses of Parliament and the Abbey were built lies on what was called Thorney Island. This was just marshy land where the River Tyburn, which rises in Hampstead, flowed into the Thames. It is known as the ‘City of Westminster’ because for a short while the Abbey was classified as a cathedral – in the same way that the City of London is called a city because of St Paul’s. (The reason for it being called a cathedral is further explained in the notes and appendix.) WHERE TO START THE WALK The walk starts outside Westminster tube station, which is served by the Jubilee, Circle and District Lines. The station was rebuilt to accommodate the Jubilee Line in a rather futuristic and ‘brutalist’ style of architecture (which in this instance I rather like). There are also numerous bus routes that serve the area. 1 BEFORE YOU BEGIN THE WALK … A few words on the River Thames and Westminster Bridge The bridge and the River Thames are just 100 yards or so away from the station, where the walk begins. So, if you would like to take a look at them first, then leave the station via Exit 1. Cross the Embankment, passing the statue of Boadicea and her daughters on a chariot. It was erected in in 1902, though not without some controversy as although she may have ‘tried to defend our shores by attacking the Roman invaders’, in doing so she hung, burnt and crucified tens of thousands of innocent people.
