  • (Public Pack)Cycle Superhighway Supplement Agenda Supplement
    Public Document Pack Planning and Transportation Committee Date: TUESDAY, 24 FEBRUARY 2015 Time: 11.00 am Venue: LIVERY HALL - GUILDHALL ITEM 10 CYCLE SUPERHIGHWAYS - APPENDIX John Barradell Town Clerk and Chief Executive This page is intentionally left blank Board Date: 4 February 2015 Item 7: Proposed Cycle Superhighways Schemes This paper will be considered in public 1 Summary 1.1 TfL’s Road Modernisation Plan is designed to get more from the road network and help London grow. It contains five core portfolios, which together make up the £4bn roads investment in Surface Transport’s ten year business plan. The Cycle Superhighways (CS) programme is a key element within the £0.9bn cycling portfolio to deliver the ‘Mayor’s Vision for Cycling in London’, which seeks to double cycling over the next 10 years and transform London’s streets and spaces to places where cyclists feel they belong and are safe. £0.2bn from the cycling budget has been committed to the CS programme, to provide TfL with the resources to deliver significant improvements, including the proposed East-West route. 1.2 The CS programme is essential for improving the levels of service experienced by the hundreds of thousands of people already cycling daily in London, as well as driving future demand for cycling. The proposed routes deliver the backbone for the wider cycling infrastructure proposals, linking Quietways and existing London Cycle Network (LCN) routes to key home and workplace destinations, providing attractive high-capacity routes for commuters and leisure users alike. 1.3 This paper seeks Board approval for the construction of four new Cycle Superhighways (CS), and upgrades to the four existing CS routes.

  • The Operator's Story Appendix
    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: London’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London Community of Metros CoMET The Operator’s Story: Notes from London Case Study Interviews February 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in London. These notes are based upon 14 meetings between 6th-9th October 2015, plus one further meeting in January 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and TfL. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by TfL (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by TfL themselves and those expressed about their organisation.

  • ENGLISH 'B' Class: XI Topic: Upon Westminster Bridge Date
    ST. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL A JESUIT CHRISTIAN MINORITY INSTITUTION STUDY MATERIAL 2 Sub: ENGLISH ‘B’ Class: XI Topic: Upon Westminster Bridge Date: 23.06.2020 About The Poet: William Wordsworth (7 April 1770 – 23 April 1850) was an important poet of the Romantic Age in England and ranks as one of the greatest lyric poets in the history of English literature. His famous work ‘Lyrical Ballads’, which he worked on along with Samuel Taylor Coleridge, helped usher in the Romantic Movement in English Literature. He was an early leader of Romanticism, a literary movement that celebrated nature and concentrated on human emotions, in English poetry. Wordsworth introduced a new style of poetry using language that appealed to ordinary people. His poems often portrayed his love of nature as well as his inner thoughts and feelings. ‘The Prelude’, an autobiographical poem of his early years, is considered by many to be his masterpiece. Wordsworth was England's Poet Laureate from 1843 until his death in 1850. Summary Of The Poem: The first eight lines praise the beauty of London in the early morning light, as the poet stands on Westminster Bridge admiring the surrounding buildings. Wordsworth finds London a glorious sight in the early morning light, because the city has not yet woken up and these industrial processes and governmental activities have not yet begun. London is instead at one with nature. Indeed, the sun shines as beautifully on these structures as it does on the natural world. London seems to lie still, plunged into a calm state that is akin to a pleasant sleep.

  • London View Management Framework SPG MP26
    26 Townscape View: St James’s Park to 219 Horse Guards Road 424 The St James’s Park area was originally a marshy water meadow, before being drained to provide a deer park for Henry VIII in the sixteenth century. The current form of the park owes much to Charles II, who ordained a new layout, incorporating The Mall, in the 1660s. The park was remodelled by John Nash in 1827-8 and his layout survives largely intact. St James’s Park is maintained to an extremely high standard and the bridge across the lake provides a frequently visited place from which to appreciate views through the Park. The landscape is subtly lit after dark. St James’s Park is included on English Heritage’s Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest at Grade I. 425 There is one Viewing Location at St James’ Park 26A, which is situated on the east side of the bridge over the lake. 220 London View Management Framework Viewing Location 26A St James’s Park Bridge N.B for key to symbols refer to image 1 Panorama from Assessment Point 26A.1 St James’s Park Bridge – near the centre of the bridge 26 Townscape View: St James’s Park to Horse Guards Road 221 Description of the View 426 The Viewing Location is on the east side of the footbridge Landmarks include: across the lake.

  • Victoria Embankment Foreshore Hoarding Commission
    Victoria Embankment Foreshore Hoarding Commission 1 Introduction ‘The Thames Wunderkammer: Tales from Victoria Embankment in Two Parts’, 2017, by Simon Roberts, commissioned by Tideway This is a temporary commission located on the Thames Tideway Tunnel construction site hoardings at Victoria Embankment, 2017-19. Responding to the rich heritage of the Victoria Embankment, Simon Roberts has created a metaphorical ‘cabinet of curiosities’ along two 25- metre foreshore hoardings. Roberts describes his approach as an ‘aesthetic excavation of the area’, creating an artwork that reflects the literal and metaphorical layering of the landscape, in which objects from the past and present are juxtaposed to evoke new meanings. Monumental statues are placed alongside items that are more ordinary; diverse elements, both man-made and natural, co-exist in new ways. All these components symbolise the landscape’s complex history, culture, geology, and development.
