Much may have changed since the docks’ Victorian heyday, but life still throngs amongst them. Gleaming offices and residential buildings line the water’s edge. City and Canary Wharf professionals race along the pavements on their morning runs. As the sun sets, these same residents take in the river views, or enjoy nights out in the global mix of dockside restaurants and bars. At weekends, canoeists and kayakers glide through the water instead of cargo ships, and in summer there’s even a beach. Shops, hotels and entrepreneurial businesses have moved in along with the influx of new residents. Students flock to the University of East London’s state-of-the-art new campus next to Royal Albert Dock. New parks and amazing sports facilities have appeared, all making the most of the Royal Docks’ unique and precious asset, the water.

We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Flood barrier, urban landscapes, dockland developments, cable car entertainment and restaurant venues In Brief This is a “walk” where a significant part is spent relaxing in the cable car* high over the Thames. (And, needless to say, for this you need a head for heights.) You will feel at the end that this was no ordinary walk as you eat in one of the thirty restaurants and ten bars of the O2 Arena. Your route today gives you a view of the Thames Flood Barrier and of the Royal Victoria Dock as you walk high above it. (* Moderate one-way fare chargeable for the cable car.) Any kind of clothing and footwear are fine on this London walk. Your dog would be a problem as he would have to be carried in the cable car. The walk begins at Pontoon Dock DLR (Docklands Light Railway) station. This is on the Woolwich Arsenal branch of the DLR (the same line as for London City Airport).

  • Albert Road Surgery Relocation Patient and Public Engagement Report
    Albert Road Surgery Relocation Patient and Public Engagement Report July – August 2017 2 Introduction Newham CCG is proposing to relocate the Albert Road Practice from Albert Road and Britannia Village to a new development site located near Pontoon Dock DLR station, planned to open September 2018. The provider will remain the same, and all the services patients currently receive will continue. The new building will allow the CCG to offer a modern and accessible practice to all patients in the Royal Docks ward. Over the next ten years the population of this ward is predicted to increase by 20,000 as outlined in our strategic estates plan and already the current sites are nearing full capacity. The new site will be able to serve 30,000 patients, providing additional appointments and opening hours, as well as space for community groups to run health and wellbeing activities. Following a request from the Primary Care Commissioning Committee, the CCG developed an engagement action plan in order to get people involved and have their say about the relocation. Over July and August 2017 the CCG’s patient and public engagement team and the primary care commissioning team spoke to over 114 people about the relocation, received 557 survey responses, and attended 14 community engagement events. Both teams attended local community events alongside community engagement activities in the Royal Docks ward, focusing mainly on North Woolwich. A separate engagement plan was also developed for the 34 housebound patients registered at the practice. Methodology An online survey was developed to ask people for their views about the proposed relocation and hardcopies were also distributed at the practice and at community events.
