The Enfield Strategic Partnership, made up of the borough’s key organisations, has just approved a new Community Strategy for the borough. The Strategy introduces a bold new concept for Enfield to underpin the Strategy’s overall vision and provide a common basis for the Partners’ future plans to shape Enfield's future. Enfield Council is now starting borough-wide consultation on the Enfield Plan, its Local Development Framework for shaping the future of the borough, which will make a vital contribution to achieving the Community Strategy’s vision. The Council, a key Partnership member, is seeking views and comments from people and organisations across Enfield as the first step. This foreword therefore introduces the Enfield Plan’s Issues and Options Report, which asks for your comments on the issues, opportunities and options facing Enfield today and in the future. I would urge everyone who is concerned to see Enfield’s quality of life conserved and improved to send us your views now, and to continue to contribute to this new plan as it is prepared. Councillor. ……….. March 2007 ii Enfield Council Core Strategy Issues and Options (Cabinet Sub Committee 27.03.07) Foreword Part 1 Planning Enfield’s Future 1 Context 2 A New Direction for Enfield Core Strategy Issues and Options (Cabinet Sub Committee 27.03.07) Enfield Council 1 1 Context 1.1 What sort of future do we want to see for Enfield? 1.1.1 In March this year the Enfield Strategic Partnership agreed a new Community Strategy for the borough, “Enfield’s Future – a Sustainable Community Strategy for Enfield 2007 – 2017”. The partners are committed to making Enfield: - A healthy prosperous cohesive community living in a borough that is safe, clean and green. 1.1.2 The Council is now preparing The Enfield Plan, its Local Development Framework, as a vital contribution to the development and implementation of the Community Strategy’s overall vision. 1.2 The Enfield Plan 1.2.1 The government’s new planning legislation(1) requires the Council to replace its Unitary Development Plan with a Local Development Framework. The LDF will be a portfolio of related documents, with its Core Strategy as the cornerstone planning text (appendix 5 gives more details). 1.2.2 To prepare the Core Strategy the Council needs to work with Enfield’s people and organisations to develop a spatial vision for the Borough’s future, to identify Enfield’s issues, challenges and opportunities, and to determine what options there are to deal with them. This Issues and Options Report sets out the Council’s initial findings and suggestions for your consideration and comment. 1.3 What we already know 1.3.1 This report builds on the Community Strategy and existing Council plans, strategies and studies. It recognises the requirements of national and London-wide policies and strategies, and uses relevant national and regional studies and information. The Sustainable Community Strategy sets out an overall borough vision and objectives and describes how the partner organisations will work together to realise the vision. Appendix 1 gives details of the strategy and the Enfield Strategic Partnership. To meet governmental requirements for preparing the LDF, the Council has prepared and approved a Sustainability Appraisal Scoping Report, which sets out the background circumstances and evidence against which the sustainability of LDF policies and proposals will be assessed; and Annual Monitoring Reports which communicate the current status of plan preparation, primarily to the government. Both include a Spatial Portrait of the borough (reproduced in appendix 2), which looks at the historical development of the borough, its present circumstances and the key drivers for change now being experienced. The Council has also approved, after consultation and independent examination, a Statement of Community Involvement for the LDF which sets out how you will be involved in the preparation of the LDF documents. As a precursor for the new planning system, the Council consulted on and approved a Spatial Planning Framework for the Borough in 2003. Appendix 3 gives details. 1 Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 2 Enfield Council Core Strategy Issues and Options (Cabinet Sub Committee 27.03.07) 1 Context The Council also has a wide range of other strategies, studies and surveys, some produced specifically to support the LDF. These are listed in appendix 4, which gathers together the Evidence Base for the Core Strategy. The London Plan(2) and the Mayor of London’s other strategies have been taken fully into account. A wide range of studies, surveys, guidance notes and other documents produced by the Greater London Authority, the London Development Agency, Transport for London and other mayoral organisations have provided invaluable input, and have been included in appendix 4. Governmental planning policy statements and guidance notes have also been given full consideration; and its studies, best practice guidance and other relevant material have provided vital support in preparing this report (see appendix 4). ______________________________________________________________________ 2 The London Plan: Spatial Development Strategy for Greater London, Greater London Authority (February 2004) Core Strategy Issues and Options (Cabinet Sub Committee 27.03.07) Enfield Council 3 2 A New Direction for Enfield 2.1 Background 2.1.1 Towards the end of 2006 the need for clear linkages between the various strategies of the Council and its Enfield partners became evident, so an overarching approach to the delivery of economic, social and environment well being in Enfield has been drawn up and included in the Enfield Strategic Partnership’s Sustainable Community Strategy to supply those linkages. This approach, the triple arc concept, is guided by the principles of sustainable development set out in the Government’s policy statement, “Delivering Sustainable Development”(3): social progress which recognises the needs of everyone effective protection of the environment the prudent use of natural resources the maintenance of high and stable levels of economic growth and employment 2.1.2 The concept underpins the Sustainable Community Strategy, and sets out a clear direction for all the Council’s strategies and plans.

    Our Ref: SOC/T337/Stage2/0710 Consultation and Engagement Centre Surface Transport Communications Transport for London 11th Floor, Zone G2, Palestra 197 Blackfriars Road London SE1 8NJ [email protected] 16 July 2010 Dear Stakeholder Routes 153, 299, W4, W5, W6 & W10 We have now reviewed routes 153, 299, W4, W5, W6, and W10 and would like to hear your views on our proposals. Our review took account of passenger usage, reliability issues, timetables, vehicle type, area served and passenger and stakeholder feedback. As with all reviews this was done in a network context, including consideration of parallel services. We are grateful to those who have already responded with comments. These have been carefully considered and this letter includes our analysis of the main points raised. We are currently inviting tender bids from operators for routes 299, W4, W5, W6 and W10 for contracts starting in February 2011. The contract for route 153 will be extended by two years from February 2011. Route 153 (Finsbury Park Station – Liverpool Street Station) We are not proposing any permanent changes to the current structure of this route or to the frequency. From August 2010, we are proposing that buses on route 153 will be diverted to serve Chiswell Street and Finsbury Pavement in the City of London in both directions for approximately two years. New stops would be provided on Chiswell Street in both directions and on Finsbury Pavement towards Liverpool Street Station (eastbound). The diversion is required because Silk Street and Milton Street will become one way westbound in connection with the Heron Tower development meaning buses cannot serve them.

  • Public Transport Accessibility & Deprivation
    Tackling Poverty: One Bus Ride Away A report by London Assembly Member Val Shawcross into Public Transport Accessibility Levels & the Effect on Deprivation Foreword In March 2014, I published a report on the cost of living crisis in London entitled, Cost of Living: Fair Fares, which found that 84% of Londoners think that public transport fares are too high. The report also highlighted how it is the poorest in our community who have been disproportionately hit by fare rises. I therefore wanted to see what practical steps the Mayor of London could take to help the poorest Londoners and I struck upon the idea of looking at what level each of the 4,835 neighbourhoods in London had access to the transport public network. I started by evaluating the Public Transport Accessibility Level (PTAL) scores for every neighbourhood in London. I then matched that to the index of deprivation to see if there was any link between how deprived a neighbourhood is and how much, or little, access it has to the public transport network. There appears to be a strong link between highly dense neighbourhoods with a low access to the transport network and deprivation. In the following report, I ask what the Mayor is doing about this; what he should be doing about this; and I offer some suggested changes to the transport network to help reduce poverty in a number of neighbourhoods across London. In turn, this would allow lower income families easier access to jobs, educational opportunities and community services and resources. I hope that this report will start a debate about how we can use the public transport network to tackle deprivation in our city.
