Introduction 1.1 Background Under the Greater London Authority Act 1999, boroughs are required to produce a Local Implementation Plan (LIP) setting out their priorities and associated proposals to deliver a better transport system within the borough. This needs to be set in the wider context of the Mayor’s Transport Strategy (MTS) for London and other locally and sub-regionally important goals. Tower Hamlets’ first LIP was produced in 2005, to cover the period of 2005/06 to 2010/11, and set out proposals to implement the MTS 2001. This second-round LIP, will propose to implement the revised Mayor’s Transport Strategy (MTS2) which was published in May 2010 and covers the period up to 2031. It identifies how we will work towards achieving the revised MTS goals of: • supporting economic development and population growth; • enhancing the quality of life for all Londoners; • improving the safety and security of all Londoners; • improving transport opportunities for all Londoners; • reducing transport’s contribution to climate change and improving its resilience; and • supporting the delivery of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games and its legacy. In addition to MTS2, it also responds to the emerging East London Sub-Regional Transport Plan (SRTP), Tower Hamlets’ Community Plan and other relevant local policies. It sets out the long term goals and transport objectives for the borough, a three year programme of investment, and the targets and outcomes we are seeking to achieve. Transport has implications for all activities which take place within the borough and a good transport system is thus an essential part of everyday. The LIP2 is a vital tool which will help us deliver a better, more sustainable, transport system that helps shape the identity of the Borough and contributes to an improved quality of life for all by meeting local priorities. 1.2 Development of the LB Tower Hamlets’ LIP2 Tower Hamlets’ Second Implementation Plan has been developed in accordance with Guidance on Developing Second London Local Implementation Plans (TfL, 2010). Governance Arrangements The development of this Plan has been overseen by a LIP2 Working Group comprising Officers from a range of internal teams and departments, namely: • Transportation & Highways – o Public Transport o Road Safety o Engineering o Maintenance o Active Travel (LBTH & NHS Tower Hamlets) Tower Hamlets Second Local Implementation Plan (LIP2) – Consultation Draft 1 • Development & Renewal – o Strategic Transport o Strategic Planning • Parking Services – o Enforcement • Environmental Health & Protection – o Air Quality o Noise The Working Group has been involved at all key stages in the process of developing the Plan and has played a vital role in determining priority areas for investment. A series of working group meetings and workshops have been held throughout the LIP2 preparation process to: • identify the priorities for transport within the Borough and ultimately to agree the Borough Transport Objectives, the first core component of the LIP2; • identify potential interventions for inclusion within the LIP2 Delivery Plan and also to review and approve the three year Programme of Investment, the second core component of the LIP2; and • review and approve the selection of monitoring indicators and the setting of core and local targets to be included within the Performance Monitoring Plan, the third core component of the LIP2. This LIP2 document was subsequently submitted for Cabinet review on the 1st December 2010. Consultation In developing this Plan, we have consulted with the following consultees on the Borough Transport Objectives: • Borough residents and local businesses / organisations; • Metropolitan Police, including the Borough Commander and the Traffic Management Unit; • Tower Hamlets’ Pan Disability Panel Transport Sub Group; • NHS Tower Hamlets; • British Waterways; • Neighbouring Boroughs of Hackney, Newham, Southwark, Greenwich and the City of London; and • Transport for London (TfL). A Borough Transport Objectives consultation document was made publicly available via the Council website from Wednesday 28th July until Wednesday 8th September 2010. Feedback received from this web-based consultation exercise has been taken into account when finalising the Borough Transport Objectives included within Chapter 2 of this document. Formal public consultation on the LIP2 will take place post submission to TfL on the 20th December. Integrated Impact Assessment A number of strategic assessments have been undertaken in preparing the LIP2 to assess and minimise any potential adverse impacts of the plan. All of these Tower Hamlets Second Local Implementation Plan (LIP2) – Consultation Draft 2 assessments (as described below) have been conducted together, and reported on as part of an Integrated Impact Assessment (IIA). A Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), which is a formal environmental assessment required under the SEA Regulations (SI 2004 No. 1633), has been undertaken to ensure that environmental features, issues and opportunities were given consideration as we developed options for improving and managing the transport network in Tower Hamlets, to be included within the Delivery Plan. A Health Impact Assessment (HIA) has also been undertaken to assess the impact of the plan on the health and well-being of the population, and also on their ability to access health-related facilities and services. Production of a HIA fulfils local policy requirements and also supports the Equality Impact Assessment (EqIA), an additional assessment undertaken for the LIP2. The purpose of the EqIA was to ensure that the proposals presented do not discriminate against equality groups and that equality is promoted whenever possible. Boroughs have a duty to carry out an Equality Impact Assessment of their LIP under race, disability and gender legislation. A summary of the main IIA report is contained in Appendix A. Outcomes of the earlier stages of the assessment are also reported at relevant points throughout the document. 1.3 Content Subsequent chapters of Tower Hamlets’ LIP2 are as follows: • Chapter 2 presents an evidence-based identification of Borough Transport Objectives, reflecting the MTS2 goals, and local priorities (such as those set out in Tower Hamlets Community Plan, Local Area Agreement, LDF Core Strategy and Sustainable Transport Strategy); • Chapter 3 sets out a Delivery Plan detailing the interventions we propose to deliver, including a costed and funded Programme of Investment covering the period 2011 to 2014; and • Chapter 4 details the Performance Monitoring Plan identifying a set of locally specific targets which can be used to assess the effectiveness of the LIP2 in achieving its objectives, and ultimately the MTS goals.

  • Dear Consultee PUBLIC CONSULTATION on THE
    Dear Consultee PUBLIC CONSULTATION ON THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE DOMESTIC SAFETY MANAGEMENT REGIME Introduction In 2001 Domestic Safety Management (DSM) was introduced by the Merchant Shipping (Domestic Passenger Ships) (Safety Management Code) Regulations 2001 (Statutory Instrument, SI 2001/3209). The DSM Code requires operators of domestic passenger ships to have a safety management system tailored to their specific operations. This safety management system should include: A health and safety policy Procedures to ensure the safe operation of ships with relevant duties Lines of communication between personnel ashore and afloat Procedures for reporting accidents Procedures for responding to emergency situations The DSM Code was developed to establish a common standard for the safe operation of passenger ships engaged on domestic (operating only in UK waters) trade and it applies to ships of Classes III, IV, V, VI and VI(A)1 and those certified under the Merchant Shipping (Passenger Ships) (Safety Code for UK Categorised Waters) Regulations 20102 (SI 2010/680). The objectives of safety management require the shipping company to apply simple and cost effect means of ensuring safety on board ships; preventing human injury and loss of life; and complying with applicable regulations and rules. No two ship operations are the same, and ships vary significantly in size and are employed under a wide range of different locations and conditions. The general principles to the safe operation of ships are consistent however, and can be expressed in such terms that they can be applied to a wide variety of ships. The proposed changes and rationale Existing legislation requires each UK domestic passenger ship to be audited for compliance with the DSM Code twice each year, whereas UK internationally operating passenger ships are only audited for compliance with the International Safety Management (ISM) Code twice in every five year period.

The Council’s decision In this instance the City of London Corporation has resolved to grant permission. Recommendation That the City of London Corporation be advised that the Mayor is content for it to determine the case itself, subject to any action that the Secretary of State may take, and does not therefore wish to direct refusal or direct that he is to be the local planning authority. Context 1 On 19 July 2010 the Mayor of London received documents from the City of London Corporation notifying him of a planning application of potential strategic importance to develop the above site for the above uses.

  • C2c Rail Limited's Accessible Travel Policy Approval Decision Letter And
    Marcus Clements Head of Consumer Policy Rail Markets and Economics Email: 08 March 2021 Julian Drury Managing Director c2c By Email Dear Julian, Approval of Trenitalia c2c Limited’s (c2c’s) Accessible Travel Policy (Condition 5 of the Station Licence and GB Statement of National Regulatory Conditions: Passenger) Thank you for submitting c2c’s revised Accessible Travel Policy (ATP) for approval. We have reviewed the ATP against the September 2020 “Accessible Travel Policy Guidance for Train and Station Operators” (the guidance). I can confirm that c2c’s ATP now meets the requirements of Condition 5 of its station licence and GB Statement of National Regulatory Conditions: Passenger (SNRP). When I last wrote to you on 27 August 2020, confirming the approval of your previous ATP, I asked for further details of c2c’s disability awareness training package, and updates on progress towards meeting WCAG standards for website accessibility. This information has now been provided. I shall be grateful for ongoing updates on these two issues during the ATP Quarterly meetings we plan to hold throughout 2021. I also referred to the provision of assistance at stations where ticket office hours were reduced. We will continue to keep the provision of unbooked assistance under review to ensure that, when passenger numbers increase, waiting times remain within reasonable parameters. Please provide a branded version of all ATP documents by 5 April 2021. A copy of the approved ATP will then be published on our website along with a copy of this letter. As you are aware, ATPs must be reviewed by operators on an annual basis.
