  • Trams in Brixton 1870 - 1951
    TRAMS IN BRIXTON 1870 - 1951 Horse Trams Two Acts of Parliament, passed in 1869 and 1870, empowered the Metropolitan Street Tramways Company to construct tramways from the Lambeth end of Westminster Bridge to Brixton and to Clapham. The company got to work quickly; they lost no time in laying down double tracks with rails level with the surface of the road. 2 May 1870 was an important day in Brixton's history. It was the day when the first authorised tramcars operated in London. 1 The new trams ran that day from the Horns Tavern in Kennington Road and along Brixton Road as far as its junction with Stockwell Road. The smart blue tramcars were hauled by two horses. Cars seated 22 persons inside and 24 on the open top deck. The passengers inside sat on red velvet cushions. For top deck passengers were two wooden benches running the length of the tram; these passengers faced outwards. Trams ran every five minutes. The normal fare was a penny a mile but Parliament had required special trams to be run for workmen in the morning and evenings at a halfpenny a mile.2 As soon as the 1870 Act was passed more track laying was rushed on with, and by the end of 1870 trams were in service from the Lambeth end of Westminster Bridge to St Matthew's church, Brixton, and another line ran along Clapham Road to the Swan at Stockwell. During 1871 tramcars had reached the Plough at Clapham, and the Brixton Line had been extended to the junction of Brixton Water Lane.

Proceedings of a seminar held by the Transport Committee April 2004 Transport Committee Tram, trolley or guided bus: what are the best choices for London? Proceedings of a seminar held by the Transport Committee April 2004 copyright Greater London Authority April 2004 Published by Greater London Authority City Hall The Queen’s Walk London SE1 2AA www.london.gov.uk enquiries 020 7983 4100 minicom 020 7983 4458 ISBN 1 85261 585 0 Cover photographs Tram and guided bus ©Robert Bain Trolley bus ©Lars Freund This publication is printed on recycled paper Chair’s foreword One of the most useful and positive parts of the London Assembly’s work is to host seminars where leading experts in particular fields can inform and debate with stakeholders, politicians and local government officers. The publication of these contributions will help Londoners and their representatives to develop opinions based on well-researched information instead of speculation and prejudice. It was in this spirit that the Transport Committee of the Assembly hosted a seminar into trams, trolley buses and guided busways, with a view to informing ourselves and London about the proposals for tram and bus schemes that the Mayor is promoting through Transport for London. Peter Hendy provided a rapid but thorough overview of Transport for London’s policies, plans and programme in this area. Carmen Hass-Klau contrasted this with what is going on in continental Europe, looking at what London has to learn. She gave us a glimpse of tram projects in Nantes, Paris and Orleans, the Translohr rubber-tyred tram, and bus trains in Utrecht and Hamburg.

These events centred upon Fulwell Tram depot which was the home of our local trams from 1902 to October 1935 The first postcard shows the Hampton Court Tram terminus and was posted in 1903. The second features a tram making its way past the Post Office in Hampton Hill High Street. The London United Tramways Company intended that Fulwell should be the centre of a vast and great tramway network. Before 1901 all public transport had been horse drawn and each horse drawn bus had needed 11 horses to run a 60 miles per day service. Trams running on rails and powered by electricity were modern, clean, efficient and glamorous.

  • Mayor's Report October 2017
    15th Mayor’s Report to the Assembly MQT – 12th October 2017 This is my fifteenth Mayor’s Report to the Assembly, fulfilling my duty under Section 45 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999. It covers the period from 1 September – 28 September 2017. Executive Summary Parsons Green terrorist attack Our city utterly condemns the hideous individuals who attempted to use terror to harm us and destroy our way of life in the recent terrorist attack at Parsons Green. As London has proven again and again, we will never be intimidated or defeated by terrorism. My sincere gratitude goes to all our courageous emergency responders and the TfL staff who were first on the scene at Parsons Green and my thoughts and prayers go out to all those who were injured. First draft Housing Strategy Published On 6 September, I published my first draft Housing Strategy which provides a comprehensive plan to address the housing crisis over the next few years. This includes: • 90,000 new affordable homes started by 2021; • Ensuring a better deal for private renters; • Increasing the building of more genuinely affordable homes; • Supporting new housing providers including community builders; and • Helping to tackle homelessness, with a way off the street for every rough sleeper. I also announced my intention to earmark £250 million for City Hall to use for buying and preparing land for new and affordable housing. The money made from selling the land to homebuilders will be recycled to buy further land for new and affordable homes, unlocking opportunities across the capital. Over 100 million journeys made on ‘Hopper’ fare during first year On 11 September, I was delighted to reveal that a year on from its launch, more than 100 million journeys have now been made using my ‘Hopper’ fare.

  • RGS - IBG 2015: Reimagining the Mobility Transition
    LES ÉVÉNEMENTS SÉLECTIONNÉS PAR LE FORUM VIES MOBILES 24/05/2015 RGS - IBG 2015: Reimagining the mobility transition Scientifique - Conference session Date de début : 1 Septembre 2015 00:00 Date de fin : 4 Septembre 2015 00:00 Lieu : Exeter | Royaume-Uni Organisé par : Royal geographical Society - Institute of British Geographers Source de l'information : http://conference.rgs.org/AC2015/863f04d8-d366-4607-b0c5-22054da85ba9 This session addresses the future of mobilities taking place around the world. Rather than merely retelling stories of a low-carbon future facilitated by motorized and non- motorized transit systems, the papers envision a more dynamic future comprised not only of bicycles and buses but also of airships and electric vehicles. The papers focus on the national policy context but maintain a scalar approach that avoids methodological nationalism by also honing in on the details that enable a more mobile future. Many policies and initiatives that envision a mobility transition represent a diverse collection of explicit national and grass roots responses to global environmental change and demands for low-carbon living. A closer investigation further reveals that reducing CO2 emissions is not necessarily the primary or the only goal of related policies and projects. Mobility transitions envisioned by governmental agencies, local authorities, think tanks, businesses and activists may be embedded within other kinds of issues and categories of social and political change (e.g. social justice and equality, urban conviviality, resilience, security, aging societies and access). As such, some visions and policies are highly contested while others coalesce from competing interests and imperatives. The papers in this session argue that failing to grasp the entanglement of mobility transition policies into other issues and neglecting the processes of contestation and negotiation will lead to a very limited understanding of the dynamics of development and implementation of policies.
