    HS2 Growth Task Force – The Challenge Response from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham The local authorities welcome HS2 Limited’s revised delivery role to make High Speed 2 an engine for growth. They are pleased to be able to provide the following response that identifies specific opportunities for the development of land at and around the proposed Old Oak Common HS2 / Crossrail station, and demonstrates how these opportunities can be realised to maximise local economic growth. The authorities would also like to draw attention to how the design and development of Old Oak Common station can best support regional development, how parts of this development can be delivered in advance of HS2, and highlight an opportunity to achieve a capital return on the North Pole Depot which is owned by the Department for Transport. This response identifies the opportunity for 92,000 jobs and 22,500 new homes. However, without the outlined changes to current HS2 proposals half the new homes and a quarter of the new jobs will not be created and redevelopment of Kensal Canalside Opportunity Area will be effectively sterilised. Connecting markets, businesses and people Question 1: Do cities have visions and strategic plans to maximise growth from HS2? 1.1 In central west London an Opportunity Area Planning Framework for Old Oak Common is being produced by LB Hammersmith & Fulham (LBHF), LB Brent and LB Ealing in partnership with the Mayor of London and Transport for London (TfL). This envisages the area becoming London’s next Canary Wharf scale development.

    FELIX THE NEWSPAPER OF IMPERIAL COLLEGE UNION Friday 16th May 1980 Issue No. 553 President of ICWA shocks AGM A new President was ratified at last Tuesday's ICWA AGM. Sandra O'Sullivan was the only candidate for the post of President and so won the election. However, in a speech to the meeting she said that in her opinion ICWA has failed. Sandra said that she would not get rid of ICWA but would just make it clear to the girls at IC how little ICWA does for them. Sandra said that she would not sit on any committees and this could lead to an attempt by other members of ICWA to remove her from the position. This year's President said, "It's just a bit rediculous but all the rest of the committee are very keen - we will continue anyway. It doesn't matter about the President." " Last years ICU President, Mary Attenborough, joked that she might as well stand for Chairman of the Conservative Society. (Mary is known for her political affilations to political groups other than the Conservatives and if she was elected CONSOC chairman she considered that it would be equally rediculous). Roger Stotesbury commented that Sandra The new ICWA President was the only candidate, who stood in the ICWA elections,who actually bothered to come to the meeting. Sandra O'Sullivan "It just shows that ICWA cannot survive if there is no interest," he said. RCS AGM Last Tuesday's RCS Annual General Meeting managed to elect an Assistant Honorary Secretary, Jane Lavers, and ratified the folio wing posts: Ents Chairman— Dave Thompson; Publicity Officer — Caroline Godin.
