Systems Integration at London Heathrow Terminal 5
CMR 420, 02/01/09 Winter 2009 | Vol.51, No.2 | REPRINT SERIES CaliforniaReview Management Innovation in Megaprojects: Systems Integration at London Heathrow Terminal 5 Andrew Davies David Gann Tony Douglas © 2009 by The Regents of the University of California Innovation in Megaprojects: SYSTEMS INTEGRATION AT LONDON HEATHROW TERMINAL 5 Andrew Davies David Gann Tony Douglas growing number of infrastructure projects are being proposed and built throughout the world. A megaproject is an investment of $1B or more to build the physical infrastructures that enable people, resources, and information to move within buildings and betweenA locations throughout the world. Organizations responsible for produc- ing megaprojects face a “performance paradox.” Despite the growth in number and opportunities to beneﬁt from learning, megaprojects continue to have poor performance records.1 Most are unsuccessful measured against their original time, cost, quality, and safety objectives, as well as their expected revenue predictions. The construction of airport infrastructure provides examples of how megaprojects can go wrong. When Denver’s $5B international airport opened in 1995, it was almost 200 per cent over the original budget, 16 months late, and passenger trafﬁc achieved only half the predicted revenues. The opening of the airport was plagued by problems with the baggage handling system, which was eventually abandoned in August 2005. Although Hong Kong’s $20B Chek Lap Kok airport opened on time in July 1998, severe disruptions were experienced for six months after opening due to computer problems with the baggage han- dling system. The authors thank Jennifer Whyte, Catelijne Coopmans, and Tim Brady, who worked on a larger study of the T5 project with us, and four anonymous referees who helped to develop our conceptual approach.

Dated: …4th November 2020…………………………… Scott Cardwell – Assistant Director for Development On behalf of Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council David Diggle [email protected] Client Turley Our reference PEEM3116 3rd November 2020 1. Introduction 1.1 This Statement of Common Ground (SoCG) is between Peel L&P, Doncaster Sheffield Airport Limited (DSAL) and Doncaster Council (hereafter referred to collectively as “the parties”) and relates to the examination of the Doncaster Local Plan. The SoCG has been developed jointly by the parties. Overview 1.2 Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) is located approximately 9km south east of Doncaster town centre and lies in close proximity to the settlements of Auckley – Hayfield Green. It is also closely related to Finningley to the east and Rossington to the west, which connects to DSA via the Great Yorkshire Way (GYW). The site is entirely within the administrative boundary of Doncaster Council. 1.3 Doncaster is located at the heart of the UK’s major motorway network, with connectivity to the A1, M1, M62 and Humber ports via the M18 and M180. DSA is directly connected to the M18 by the Great Yorkshire Way link road. The recent completion of GYW phase 2 has delivered a transformative improvement in access between the airport and the wider city region, resulting in an increased catchment of 5.53 million people1.

Methodical Approach to Determining the Capacity Utilisation of Airports: the Development of the European Air Traffic System Between 2008 and 2012
Deutscher Luft- und Raumfahrtkongress 2014 DocumentID: 340138 METHODICAL APPROACH TO DETERMINING THE CAPACITY UTILISATION OF AIRPORTS: THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE EUROPEAN AIR TRAFFIC SYSTEM BETWEEN 2008 AND 2012 C. Schinwald, Munich Aerospace, Faculty of aerospace engineering e.V., Lyonel-Feininger-Str. 28, 80807 Munich, Germany M. Hornung, Institute of Aircraft Design, Technical University of Munich, Boltzmannstr. 15, 85748 Garching, Germany Abstract The global air transport system has seen significant growth rates over recent decades. The exponential increase in passenger numbers were only interrupted by periods of stagnation caused by the negative effects of unpredictable crises. In the future, the total number of aircraft movements is expected to grow further at rates between 4 and 5% per year. As seen in the past, the growth of the air transportation sector is highly asymmetric, which means that it varies strongly from region to region. This forecasted increase in demand is mainly caused by the augmented travel needs of the world's population and the rising wealth of its peoples. Because airports and, more precisely, the runway systems usually represent the bottleneck of the entire air transport system, this paper will focus on these elements. Due to local constraints, many airports haven’t been able to expand their infrastructure at the same speed traffic has grown. Therefore, more and more airports are operating close to their maximum capacity. This development is confirmed by continuously increasing average delays. This paper demonstrates a methodical approach which allows the determining of the degree of capacity utilisation of an airport. The Basic Load Index (BLI) and the Peak Load Index (PLI) were defined as indicators for the capacity situation of an airport.

Advances in Earthquake Source Physics Workshop 1St - 2Nd September 2014 Gustave Tuck Lecture Theatre University College London
Advances in Earthquake Source Physics Workshop 1st - 2nd September 2014 Gustave Tuck lecture theatre University College London In the following, the directions from every London airport, and from King's Cross/St. Pancras station, are detailed. Useful web links are also provided. UCL Department of Geography provides a very helpful interactive map of UCL and its surroundings, displayed at the end of this document. In the following text, references to this map will be used (e.g. UCL main gates: C3). Travelling in London can turn out to be quite expensive, especially if you intend to stay a little more than two days in London. Buying an Oyster card might be a good way to save some money. It only costs £5, and whatever the amount you want to top up at the beginning, and is quickly recovered. Then, you will just have to charge it whenever you need to. You can purchase an Osyter card at any airports and stations, or on the Transport For London website. From Heathrow Airport to UCL From Heathrow Airport, take the Heathrow Express from Heathrow Central station (Terminals 1-2-3) to London Paddington station. Use the airport train to connect from Terminals 4 or 5. Once in London Paddington station, use either the Circle or Hammersmith City underground lines to reach Euston Square station (C1). Head to the South exit, and take Gower St. towards South, walk past UCLU Lewis's café (C2), and the main gates to UCL (C3) will be on your left, facing the Cruciform building (B3). A cheaper way to connect to UCL from Heathrow Airport is to take the Piccadilly underground line from Heathrow Central station, up to Green Park station, and then commute to the Victoria line up to Warren Street station ( A1).
