White Ledges-not a private road, but residents have a covenant not to park on street Councillor Young outlined the consultation process to To progress the consultation introduce CPZ-main thing to consider is the times of process as soon as possible operation, generally aiming to have the least number of given current parking policies hours to impact the commuter problem (people parking then going to Ealing Broadway). 2 Item Notes Actions/Information Also want to disrupt school parking so suggest 8-9.30am and 3-4pm.

Is there any negotiation process? Yes, the council can negotiate s106 money that is in effect compensation. Is there an appeals process? Yes and the Secretary of State can overturn local decisions Is there any control over the brief; especially considering See above for Ealing Town Centre progress the downturn in the market-e.g. Dickens Yard etc all fighting to sell flats and have the same retailers as White City. Councillor Potts advised that the Local Development Framework (LDF), replaces the old Unitary Development Plan-the LDF will be agreed through consultation processes and has to be agreed by Government. The council are legally then required to attach due attention to the plan. E.g. it establishes what sites are available for development and links into an overarching framework for London. 4 Item Notes Actions/Information Feeling that Dickens Yard is still council property so don’t sell it, Councillor Potts advised this would have a knock-on effect on availability of council services. Dickens Yard brief-has to be retail-suggested this was See above for Ealing Town Centre progress based on old projections, that a model was commissioned to fit the projections and it seems unfeasible since current owners can’t fill current retail space.

Around Ealing identified 28 sites for redevelopment, 6 in See above for Ealing Town Centre progress Ealing area- Alexandria Road, Ealing Broadway Centre, the cinema, Dickens Yard, the Ealing Broadway Station and West Ealing Station. Why isn’t it being looked at as one big centre, with retail for local people, leisure and residential and work done with the developers? Councillor Potts explained that the council do not do the development -land developers put forward their proposals. What control does the council have? Policies in local plans See above for Ealing Town Centre progress e.g. small local shops Resident reminded all that Ealing is Queen of the Suburbs but turning into the Knave; it should be leading on a theme 5 Item Notes Actions/Information ‘it’s a day out’, ‘a lovely place’ Concerns about transport planning co-ordination; one The council have meetings to bring together transport and resident had recently attended a Cross rail exhibition-it regeneration stakeholders seems there is no co-ordination. Councillor Potts advised the council have no control over TfL, even over the practical access issues and this is further complicated by the range of stakeholders. Feeling there is a conservative majority in the council and a conservative Mayor of London, and more conservative local authorities, surely there is more that can be done. Public Forum-Issues raised from the floor Planning and parking-even those that look like commercial In Ealing there is an overnight waiting ban on vehicles are not in terms of parking restrictions, e.g. white vehicles with a maximum gross weight of vans and minibuses (buses and private hire cars are > 5 tonnes [unless it is for the carriage of not commercial) Concerns that domestic properties are being more than 12 passengers exclusive of the driver) ] used as commercial premises, carrying out illegal trading, and perceived problems of more cars parked, encouraging There will be a yellow sign with a no waiting symbol more breaking into cars.

It is not the purpose of such an investigation to establish blame or liability. Accordingly, it is inappropriate that RAIB reports should be used to assign fault or blame, or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose. The RAIB’s findings are based on its own evaluation of the evidence that was available at the time of the investigation and are intended to explain what happened, and why, in a fair and unbiased manner.

  • TREC Section 4: Acton Town Station/Gunnersbury Park to Boston Manor Station (Optional Extension to Ealing Broadway)
    TREC Section 4: Acton Town Station/Gunnersbury Park to Boston Manor Station (optional extension to Ealing Broadway). Distance: 8.4 km (5.4 miles). Public Transport: Section 4 starts at Acton Town Underground Station (District and Piccadilly lines), finishing at Boston Manor Underground Station (Piccadilly Line). There is an optional exit en route at Brentford Station or an optional 3.7 km (2.3 miles) extension from Boston Manor to Ealing Broadway Station (using part of the TREC Section 1 route). Surface and Terrain: The first half of the route is along level paths, including through parks: Gunnersbury and Carville Hall Park South; however the section along the Thames Path and the River Brent/Grand Union Canal Walk does involve some steps (an alternative route avoiding the steps is suggested); the route eventually reaches Boston Manor Park and Station. Refreshments: Acton Town Station; Gunnersbury Park Café; Brentford High Street (near Brentford Lock); Boston Manor Park Café (seasonal), Boston Manor Station and shops nearby. Covid-19 restrictions: Check availability of refreshments and toilets before your walk. Public Toilets: Acton Town Station (charge); Gunnersbury Park; Boston Manor Park Café (seasonal). The route starts from south-west Acton, one of the seven towns of the London Borough of Ealing, Acton means "oak farm" or "farm by oak trees". This final section of TREC does stray into the north east of the London Borough of Hounslow going through parts of old Brentford, however as this was historically part of the Parish of Ealing when it did extend to the River Thames we think it’s appropriate to include in TREC.

This report explains the background to the proposals, how the consultation was conducted and summarises the responses. On-going liaison and engagement with affected councils and other key organisations informed the development of the proposals. This included borough liaison meetings, site visits, evaluation of public requests and consideration of planning decisions made by local councils. Based on this information, TfL prepared proposals and opened them to stakeholder and wider public consultation over an eight week period from 20 June until 15 August 2008. The consultation was conducted and advertised using a local leaflet distribution, website updates, emails, a local meeting and a press release.

  • London Underground Limited
    Background Paper 1 Developing the Network 1 Introduction 1.1 Bus use has increased by over two-thirds since 1999, driven by sustained increases in the size and quality of the network, fares policy and underlying changes in London’s economy. The bus network is constantly evolving as London develops and the needs and aspirations of passengers and other stakeholders change. Enhancements take place not only to the service pattern but across all aspects of the service. • Capacity. The level of bus-km run has increased by around 40 per cent over the same period. Network capacity has increased by a faster rate, by around 55 per cent, with increases in average vehicle size. Additionally, much improved reliability means that more of the scheduled capacity is delivered to passengers. • Reliability. Effective bus contract management, in particular the introduction of Quality Incentive Contracts, has driven a transformation of reliability. This has been supported by bus priority and by the effects of the central London congestion charging scheme. Service control has been made more efficient and effective by iBus, TfL’s automatic vehicle location system. 4.0 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 Excess Wait Time (mins) 1.0 0.5 0.0 1977 1979 1981 1983 1985/86 1987/88 1989/90 1991/92 1993/94 1995/96 1997/98 1999/00 2001/02 2003/04 2005/06 2007/08 2009/10 2011/12 2013/14 Figure 1: Excess Waiting Time on high-frequency routes – since 1977 • Customer service.
