  • Ladbroke Grove
    Background and Context The Ladbroke Grove Inquiry, which was conducted by Lord Cullen, arose out of the crash at Ladbroke Grove junction on 5 October 1999 between trains operated by Thames Trains and First Great Western. There were 31 fatalities. How the Topic was Handled The inquiry was conducted under section 14 of the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974. The inquiry had the following terms of reference: 1. To inquire into, and draw lessons from, the accident near Paddington Station on 5.10.99, taking account of the findings of the HSE ‘s [Health and Safety Executive] into immediate causes. 2. To general experience derived from relevant accidents on the railway since the Hidden inquiry [1988 Clapham Rail Crash], with a view to drawing conclusions about: o factors which affect safety management o the appropriateness of the current regulatory regime 3. In the light of the above, to make recommendations for improving safety on the future railway. The inquiry complemented, rather than replaced, investigations by the Health and Safety Executive. Dr Knapman, the coroner for Inner West London, carried out an inquest into each fatality, into the time and place of death, and the medical cause of death. In accordance with section 17A of the Coroners Act 1988, each of the inquests was adjourned to await the outcome of the inquiry and then not resumed. The costs of the inquest proceedings (much shorter than they would have been if there had been no public inquiry) were met by the local authorities with the coroner’s district (Westminster, Kensington and Chelsea, Wandsworth and Merton).

  • White City Development – 1900 to 2010
    White City Development – 1900 to 2010 An account of a talk given to the London Underground Railway Society at Toynbee Hall by Paul Godwin of TfL on Tuesday 13 April 2006. Introduction Paul Godwin introduced himself as having trained as a Chartered Civil and Environmental engineer, working for Thames Water, and latterly for Transport for London in TfL Property but now as Stations Upgrades Engineer, London Underground. His involvement with the White City project dates back to 2001/2002, and being involved during his life with both water and drainage tunnels and now underground railway tunnels, he felt he could be called a true underground engineer. Overview of the development works The developer of the site is paying London Underground Limited (LUL) a substantial cash and lease sum to be allowed to develop the site and eventually LUL will receive the freehold of the site and a rental income from the tenants on site as well. The development is of 1.3 million square feet and the £1.2bn cost of development includes £150-£200 million to cover the cost of alterations to the London Underground railways and infrastructure, plus changes to road infrastructure, buses and provision for trams. Planning permission has been granted but the developer has submitted applications for higher density retail provision than previously planned, perhaps reflecting the increasing costs of the project. Once the site is completed, freehold will pass to LUL. The Central Line control centre at Wood Lane is part of the development area, and whilst remaining in situ, in use, and unaltered, will disappear from view.
