The Mayor of London’s London Plan recognises Elephant and Castle as an ‘Opportunity Area’ with a potential for growth that should be encouraged - over £4bn is being invested in its regeneration. It is one of three Opportunity Areas in Southwark, alongside Old Kent Road and Canada Water. Delancey is developing a new £1bn town centre on a 2.5 acre site, which incorporates the Elephant and Castle Shopping Centre (currently being demolished), a new campus for London College of Communication and an adjacent site of 1.25 acres fronting Elephant Road. The scheme includes 979 new homes for rent, 35% of which will be affordable including 1216 social rented properties. Elephant Park will be a new major mixed-use development including around 3,000 new homes, 50 new shops and restaurants and a brand new park and green space right in the heart of the scheme. Including Trafalgar Place, 1,633 of these homes are already complete, under construction or have planning consent. Borough Triangle scheme, developed by Peabody, will see a 2.5 acre brownfield site being turned into new homes, commercial space and a new public square known as Arch Plaza. Currently this site is being temporarily utilised by Mercato Metropolitano food market. London South Bank University St George’s Quarter development plans include new teaching space, a performing arts centre, exhibition space, a new library and learning and resource centres as well as public landscaped areas.

    LEDS in Practice May 2016 Make roads safe by reducing greenhouse gas emissions from urban transport Benoit Lefevre PhD, Director of Energy, Climate & Finance, WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities Katrin Eisenbeiß, Young Professional, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) Neha Yadav, Research Fellow, WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities Angela Enriquez, Research Analyst, WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cites Key messages n The UN Decade of Action for Road Safety (2011–20) is aiming to reduce road traffic fatalities by 50% by 2020 compared with the 2010 baseline. n Low carbon transport offers a practical opportunity to safeguard citizens as they go about their daily lives, at the same time as reducing greenhouse gas emissions from urban transport systems. n Cities can prevent death and injury on their roads as the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the urban transport sector is accompanied by a significant reduction in private vehicles and improvement in infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists. n For example: O In London, congestion charging during peak hours was imposed to reduce the number of vehicles in the city center. Since enforcing the congestion charge, traffic accidents declined by 31% between 2003 and 2006 and carbon dioxide equivalent emissions dropped 16.4%. O Within 1 year of the implementation of a bus rapid transit system in Ahmadabad, India, greenhouse gases were reduced by 35%; by the second year fatalities related to traffic accidents were reduced by 65.7%. Introduction This paper shares two case studies from cities that have taken action in the transport sector to make their roads safer and have seen the benefits in reduced road fatalities and emissions.

    Item 7 Appendix 1 Summary of Responses Received to Petitions Presented at Recent Assembly Meetings Petitions submitted on 10 September 2008 (Mayor’s Question Time) 1. Valerie Shawcross AM and Caroline Pidgeon AM received a petition with the following prayer, which was presented by Valerie Shawcross on behalf of both Members: " We the undersigned support the development and implementation of the Cross River Tram as soon as possible. We believe that the Cross River Tram is essential for: - Linking regeneration area with the employment opportunities in the Central London area. - The relief of congestion on the Northern, Victoria & Piccadilly Lines. - Easing the significant overcrowding on buses which are currently the only means of public transport on certain sections of the route. We call on the Mayor of London Boris Johnson to confirm his commitment to the Cross River Tram and to do everything in his power to ensure that it is delivered as soon as possible" The Mayor, Boris Johnson, sent a written response on 9 October 2008 saying: “I am aware that there is both support and concern for the Cross River Tram scheme. In light of the funding settlement from Government which does not include any funding to implement the scheme I am currently reviewing the scheme and have asked Transport for London to provide me with details of the transport, economic and environmental implications of the project to help me decide how best to proceed. Recently I agreed to meet a delegation of borough councils who support the scheme and listen to the arguments put forward. I thank you again for presenting me with this petition and would ask you to be patient while the overall case for the tram is reviewed.” 2.

Three new docks - Royal Victoria, Royal Albert and King George V - and the trades that grew around them transformed this area into the industrial heart of the world’s largest port. A busy day in King George V Dock (1965) But this success was not to last. © PLA / Museum of London When the docks closed in 1981 North Woolwich was left isolated and in decline.

  • Overall Character
    OVERALL 4 CHARACTER 50 4 OVERALL CHARACTER 4 OVERALL CHARACTER 4.1 OVERARCHING CHARACTER DESCRIPTION 4.1.1 Introduction Despite a fragmented street pattern and the standardised nature of much of its housing, the Old Kent Road area has a clear identity. It is readily distinguishable from other parts of London. That identity partly reflects the area’s long history, with layers of development and rebuilding having made their imprint, but it is also because of the presence of numerous landmark buildings and incidental views towards the skyline of the City of London. The Shard Southwark Park at London Bridge can also be glimpsed from various (a registered park) Southwark Park Road points in the study area and serves as a reminder of the area’s closeness to the heart of the capital. Mandela Way The area as a whole is unplanned, having grown organically and opportunistically, and to some East Street degree as a response to wartime destruction and slum clearance. However, within the area there are self-contained housing estates that reflect the organisational and economic priorities of their day. The long and straight course of the Old Kent Road is a major artery from the heart of the city and exerts a Rotherhithe New Road powerful influence on the character of the area. This Old Kent Road linear quality is its only constant; the width varies and the Road is lined with buildings of almost every form, style, scale and colour. Land uses are equally variable, albeit with retail and residential predominating. Away from the Old Kent Road itself, the area looks north to the communities of Bermondsey, west to Walworth and south to Peckham.
