Cumulative Growth Scenario – West Sub-Region Cumulative Growth Scenario – West Sub-Region Presentation to West London Panel 24th September 2015 Contents 1. Sub Regional Approach & Methodology 2. Growth & Impacts of the Cumulative Growth Scenario 3. West Sub-Regional Challenges Summary 4. Next Steps 2 1 Sub regional approach & Methodology • Evidence-based approach – Range of data sources to identify current and future challenges – Focus on the cumulative impact of growth • A consistent method used across all sub regions • Two alternative scenarios were modelled and to identify the impacts of growth and tested against a 2011 baseline. These were: – A baseline scenario 2011 – A reference case scenario 2041, broadly in line with the revised London Plan 2015 (although see note on following page) – A maximum growth scenario 2041, to consider growth exceeding current assumptions. This scenario included higher density development in the opportunity areas. • The two 2041 test scenarios both included the committed transport infrastructure improvements: – Committed National Rail capacity upgrades associated with HSLOS1 and 2 (High Level Output Specification); – Committed London Underground capacity upgrades associated with the PPP upgrade programme; – Cross rail 1. – They did not include uncommitted schemes: e.g. Crossrail 2, various rail projects facilitated by a new overground station/stations at Old Oak Common. 4 • The boroughs, TfL and the GLA are working together to identify the strategic transport requirements to support both: – Current needs; and – Growth across the sub region over the next 25 years focused on Opportunity Areas . • Transport investment is needed to enable higher density living and to make areas more attractive to live in. • There is a focus on public transport and sustainable modes, but necessary road improvements are also considered, to enable essential movement 5 What do the 2 future year scenarios include? • Reference Case (2041): TfL’s strategic representation of 2041 using the FALP growth projections at GLA level and a borough distribution of growth that reflects the likely location of future development. • It should be noted that for many Opportunity Areas, the stated FALP target is not fully represented by the 2041 Reference Case planning inputs. This is because the former is an aspirational end-state capacity target for a specific area, so a different entity from the strategic GLA employment and population projections developed for Greater London. In the process to convert the borough population and employment totals to an input for each constituent model zone, the borough total is treated as constrained to the GLA borough projection. Therefore there is only a set amount of growth that can be allocated across all the model zones within the borough, making it unlikely that a particular concentration of growth capacity can be fully represented. The above is manifested in Hammersmith & Fulham where OOC growth is not fully included in the ref. case. • Cumulative growth case (2041): A high growth scenario developed to represent the delivery of the target end state homes and employment capacity in each OA/AI in Greater London (plus a couple of known growth areas outside of these). To achieve this, extra employment and population was added to the 2041 Reference Case totals of a number of LTS zones. 6 2. Growth & Impact of Cumulative Growth Scenario Inner and outer West 8 Growth forecast 2011-2041 Population growth between 2011 and 2041 Job growth between 2011 and 2041 • West sub-regional population growth is forecast • West sub-regional jobs growth is forecast to increase to increase from 1,608k, by an additional 286k from 808k, by an additional 136k (17%) between (16%) between 2011 and 2041. 2011 and 2041. • In the Reference case, this will increase by an • In the Reference case, this will increase by an additional 101k people (35% overall). additional 96k jobs (29% overall). • Hammersmith and Fulham is forecast to • Hammersmith and Fulham is forecast to accommodate the highest increase in accommodate the highest increase in jobs population 9 Focus on inner western arc Inner West OA’s • Wembley, Old Oak, Park Royal, Kensal Canalside, White City, Earls Court • South of area is CAZ like • Most of office jobs here • North of area more industrial • High density land uses relative to outer • Greater reliance on PT and walk/cycle • Large number of daily trips through the area into central London 10 Transport implications: Current and future trip numbers Trips from inner West boroughs (which for this are Brent, Ealing and H&F): • Almost half remain in inner West • Approximately 45% of trips are split equally between outer west and going to either the Central sub-region or outside London • +55,000 trips between 2011 and 2041 Reference ; +89,000 trips between 2011 and 2041 High Growth Scenario • Overall growth in trips to all locations • Split between destinations remains broadly the same 2011 2041 Ref Case 2041 High Growth From Inner West to...

Transport implications: Changing trip distribution Public transport trips growth from inner west between 2011 and 2041 High Growth • Increasing number of local trips by public transport within inner west and from inner west to central London between 2011 and 2041 High Growth • Crossrail enhances ability to access City and Canary Wharf This highlights growing public transport mode shares but also growing number of trips so greater mode shift will be required 13 A mode shift to public transport will encourage active travel • The proportion of those walking to work as their main mode has been fairly constant over the last 20 years and is unlikely to change significantly by 2041. • However, as public transport trips and mode share increase the number and proportion of people walking as part of their journey will increase. • There will be more pedestrians on the streets, with implications for health, urban realm and safety. • The Mayors Transport Strategy set a target to increase cycling trips by 400% by 2026 (from 2000 levels). 14 3.

What are the key problems with National Rail services in London that need to be addressed? They are less frequent than tubes and London Overground services, they end too early, there are insufficent staff members on stations. 2. What changes to the delivery, funding or governance of rail services in London should be considered? The concession arrangement granted to LOROL has transformed the services in question, proving that increasing the frequency and attractiveness of the service brings people off the roads and onto rail, or out of their homes to become economically active. 3.

  • Railse No.150 December 2020
    railse no.150 December 2020 The quarterly branch newsletter of in London and the South East Britain’s leading independent campaign for a bigger better railway for passengers and freight Return to rail – safely, confidently Decarbonisation = electrification! The predominantly electrified rail network across most of our regional branch area still has a way to go before diesel-powered trains become a rarity. One task is electrifying Thames port and other similar connections for freight haulage, to discard the ubiquitous class 66! As this newsletter is published so too are the Office of Rail & Road’s latest annual station usage estimates. For the year 2019/20, they reflect the pandemic near the end of the period to 31st March. Next December’s figures, for the current year to March 2021, will be a horror-show and our challenge as a pro-rail campaign is to ‘build back better’ passenger usage – of a resilient transport system which is now into the final five-year countdown towards a truly notable bicentenary! We have just two straightforward messages: ~ to the general public: of all possible ways in which you might become infected with the virus, using public transport is proven to be one of the most unlikely; Class 88 electro-diesel loco for Direct Rail Services ~ to the rail industry: as passengers see when they return to their local station after closure for a half-term Dirty diesels destined for departure? of route improvement work, post-pandemic passengers returning must see improvements too with consistently Our three unelectrified routes (two of which don’t serve higher standards maintained for cleanliness of stations London) operate a fraction of the hourly diesel trains and trains and for punctuality of services.

  • Minutes Before the First Train Until 15 Minutes After the Last Train
    Appendix 2 Budget and Performance Committee – 15 October 2014 Transcript of Item 5 – London Overground John Biggs AM (Chairman): The main item then is London Overground and we have four witnesses, Jon Fox and Peter Austin from, well, I think of them both from Transport for London [TfL]. Peter Austin, you are actually from the operator, is that right? Peter Austin (Managing Director, London Overground Rail Operations Ltd): From the operating company. John Biggs AM (Chairman): We have Janet Cooke from TravelWatch and Jonathan Roberts from Jonathan Roberts Consulting, who many of us know from his work down the years on various bits of London’s transport. He and I grew old together on the East London line extension, I think. Peter Austin (Managing Director, London Overground Rail Operations Ltd): Yes. John Biggs AM (Chairman): We are now younger again. OK, so we have a series of questions, but I think we will start with a presentation from London Overground Rail Operations Limited (LOROL). So welcome. Peter Austin (Managing Director, London Overground Rail Operations Ltd): Good afternoon, thanks very much. There are just a few slides with thought we would take you through, just to try to set the scene. I am Peter Austin, I am the Managing Director at LOROL. I have been with the company since we actually went through the original bidding process as well; originally as Finance Director and for the last 18 months as Managing Director, so I have seen the whole procurement process and actually the change that has happened. Where did we start? Back before 2007 I think, a well-known piece of work about London’s forgotten railroad, about the North London line.
