    Investigation Into Reliability of the Jubilee Line

    Investigation into Reliability: London Underground Jubilee Line An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science By Jack Arnis Agolli Marianna Bailey Errando Berwin Jayapurna Yiannis Kaparos Date: 26 April 2017 Report Submitted to: Malcolm Dobell CPC Project Services Professors Rosenstock and Hall-Phillips Worcester Polytechnic Institute This report represents work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see http://www.wpi.edu/Academics/Projects. Abstract Metro systems are often faced with reliability issues; specifically pertaining to safety, accessibility, train punctuality, and stopping accuracy. The project goal was to assess the reliability of the London Underground’s Jubilee Line and the systems implemented during the Jubilee Line extension. The team achieved this by interviewing train drivers and Transport for London employees, surveying passengers, validating the stopping accuracy of the trains, measuring dwell times, observing accessibility and passenger behavior on platforms with Platform Edge Doors, and overall train performance patterns. ii Acknowledgements We would currently like to thank everyone who helped us complete this project. Specifically we would like to thank our sponsor Malcolm Dobell for his encouragement, expert advice, and enthusiasm throughout the course of the project. We would also like to thank our contacts at CPC Project Services, Gareth Davies and Mehmet Narin, for their constant support, advice, and resources provided during the project.

Preface Preface The purpose of a Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) investigation is to improve railway safety by preventing future railway accidents or by mitigating their consequences. It is not the purpose of such an investigation to establish blame or liability. Accordingly, it is inappropriate that RAIB reports should be used to assign fault or blame, or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose. The RAIB’s findings are based on its own evaluation of the evidence that was available at the time of the investigation and are intended to explain what happened, and why, in a fair and unbiased manner.

  • The Jubilee Line Upgrade

    The Jubilee Line Upgrade

    THE JUBILEE LINE UPGRADE by Mike Palmer Upgrade Operations, Jubilee Line, London Underground A report of the LURS meeting at All Souls Club House on 13 October 2009 Mike prefaced the talk by explaining how the Northern Line upgrade and Jubilee Line were similar and those who attended the Northern Line Upgrade talk several months ago would hear some similarities. Mike also explained how some of the talk would be relatively complex and different to any automatic signalling system on LU at the moment: to understand the complexity of the upgrade he would have to teach us some of the concepts behind the new system. It was also made clear to the audience that as the upgrade at time of the talk was overdue, some areas of questioning, such as details of slippage, cost, contractual relationships, would not and could not, for legal reasons, be answered. Mike started off his career in 1982 as a railman, becoming a guard on the District Line at Acton with other well-known figures such as Colin Smith, Dave Rowe and Kim Rennie. He moved to become an Information Assistant between 1985 and 1986 where a familiar Brian Hardy gave him the job. He then moved to become a Line Controller on the Piccadilly, District, Jubilee Metropolitan and Bakerloo from 1986-1989, a Duty Train Manager on the Piccadilly and District between 1989-1993, and then the Duty Operations Manager for the District Line from 1993 to 1995. Following this, he then became a Service Control Manager for the Jubilee and East London lines.

    Lambeth Council and Transport for London Will Assess How Developments Can Take Account of and Address Transport Requirements

    Chapter 7: Site Specific Guidance Site Specific Guidance There are many sites in Waterloo where Lambeth would welcome redevelopment, but this section sets out guidance for particular sites where clarification of the development issues is required. Likely site specific s.106 obligations are highlighted, but developments will need to comply with Lambeth’s SPD on s.106 Planning Obligations. This section covers the following sites: MDO 93 Shell Centre - Hungerford Car Park MDO 94 South Bank Centre MDO 91 Waterloo Station MDO 92 Elizabeth House MDO 107 Union Jack Club - Lower Marsh - IMAX & ‘City Square’ MDO 108 Cornwall Road bus garage 7.1 Shell Centre (MDO 93) Site History 7.1.1 Shell International put forward a plan to redevelop the Shell Centre on York Road in 2001. The plan would create a new 10-storey building on the upstream podium with office, retail and leisure uses and development within the courtyard of the Shell Centre. The ground floor spaces of the existing shell centre tower would be converted to retail uses and be open to the public. The public realm across the Shell Centre would be greatly improved. Current status 7.1.2 Planning permission and conservation area consent was granted on appeal in 2004 for a scheme including part demolition and the erection of a mixed use building of 69,000sqm on the podium site (01/02543/FUL). Development Principles 7.1.3 The UDP states that “the Council will promote the contribution this site can make to permeability and pedestrian linkages as well as to open space provision either in its own right or to generating improvements to open space within the wider area”.
