    2013 Air Quality Progress Report for: Epping Forest District Council In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management Date (June, 2013) Epping Forest District Council Local Authority Fay Rushby Officer Department Public Health Environment & Street Scene Address Epping Forest District Council Civic Offices High Street Epping Essex CM16 4BZ Telephone 01992 564496 e-mail [email protected] Report WK/201214649 Reference number Date June 2013 LAQM Progress Report 2013 Epping Forest District Council Executive Summary Epping Forest District is an attractive, predominantly commuter area on the north eastern edge of London. The air quality in the district is reasonably good. There are two large motorways in the district; the M25 and the M11 however the main source of air pollution in the district is local road traffic with increased concentrations of vehicle emissions related polutants limited to congested high street areas and busy junctions. The District Council has completed all rounds of the review and assessment to date, which led to a number of detailed assessments for nitrogen dioxide. Air Quality Management Areas (AQMA) were declared for Epping High Street in 2010, and Bell Vue, Bell Common in 2011. The Epping High Street AQMA was declared solely on the basis of modelling information, but was revoked in 2011 on the completion of diffusion tube monitoring, which confirmed that nitrogen dioxide were below the air quality objective. All other reports judged that it was not necesarry to declare any further AQMA. This Progress Report builds on previous air quality work, and reports on 2012 monitoring data.

  • Thomas Brassey and His Link to Heritage Railways No 3 the Epping
    Thomas Brassey and his link to Heritage Railways No 3 The Epping Ongar Railway The Epping Ongar Railway is a preserved line operating between Ongar, North Weald and and Epping Forest, a distance of 6 miles. The branch line to Ongar was originally built by Thomas Brassey under a contract for the Great Eastern Railway (GER) awarded in August 1862. The line, from Loughton via Epping, a distance of some 11 miles, was built as an extension of the route from London (Stratford) to Loughton previously opened in 1856 by the Eastern Counties Railway. The preserved railway now operates on part of this line. It was built as single- track throughout with intermediate stations at Chigwell Road (now Debden), Theydon Bois, Epping, North Weald and Blake Hall and also included the Cripsey Brook Viaduct near Ongar. The line was opened in April 1865. A number of improvements were subsequently made. The section between Loughton and Epping was doubled in 1893. Following Nationalisation in 1948 the control of the line passed to the London Transport Executive and electrification through to Epping was completed in 1949 becoming part of the Central Line. The single line section between Epping and Ongar was electrified in 1957 although in practice the low-cost upgrade was never adequate to operate through trains and the branch was kept and operated as an isolated shuttle. From the late 1960s passenger numbers along the Epping to Ongar section declined and services were progressively reduced leading to closure in 1994. In 1998 the line was purchased by a private company.

    Date: 8th January 2018 Commercial Development Transport for London 3rd Floor Wing Over Station 55 Broadway By email London SW1H 0BD Phone: 020 7126 4468 Email: [email protected] Dear Sir/Madam, RE: Merton Local Plan 2020, 1st stage consultation Thank you for consulting Transport for London (TfL) on the London Borough of Merton’s draft Local Plan 2020. The following comments represent the views of officers in TfL Commercial Development Planning Team (TfL CD) in its capacity as a significant landowner and are separate from any representations that may be made by TfL in its statutory role as the strategic transport authority for London. TfL CD has been set an ambitious target by the Mayor to commence the development of 10,000 new homes in London by 2021; at least 50% of these new homes must be genuinely affordable. TfL CD has identified a number of sites in the borough for residential led, mixed-use development which will make a significant contribution towards meeting borough and TfL housing targets, as well as improved public transport infrastructure. Our representations in respect of the Call for Sites and the various topics set out in your consultation are set out below. Call for Sites 1. Morden Town Centre Morden has been identified as one of the major growth and housing opportunity areas in south west London by the Mayor of London, TfL and the London Borough of Merton (LBM). There are currently a series of adopted documents which together establish the regeneration context of Morden town centre and specific sites within it.

    Safety, Sustainability and Human Resources Panel Date: 17 November 2016 Item: Quarterly Health, Safety and Environment Performance Reports 2016/17 1 Summary 1.1 The TfL Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Performance report describes the HSE performance across London Underground, Surface Transport and London Rail for Quarter 2 2016/17, 26 June – 17 September inclusive and performance across Crossrail for Quarter 1 2016/17 1 April – 25 June. 1.2 The Panel’s input on the development of the content of the report and identification of any topics for more in depth discussion at future meetings for inclusion of the forward planner is also sought. 2 Recommendation 2.1 The Panel is asked to note this paper. 3 Background 3.1 There were no accidental customer fatalities on the TfL public transport network. A total of 13 fatalities are attributed to; suicide (nine) and pre existing medical issues (four). There were no employee or contractor fatalities in the quarter. 3.2 Slips, trips and falls continue to be the main cause of customer injury across the network, with incidents continuing to occur on escalators, stairs, the platform train interface (PTI), and on buses. Programmes to militate against customer injury remain on target and within budget. 3.3 For London Underground, PTI performance continues as modelled. This is as a result of a change in the PTI profile due to the introduction of new rolling stock and increase in customers. The majority of incidents result in minor injury. Our mitigation programmes continue on plan and within budget. 3.4 The overall figure for employee injury continues to improve, however, slips, trips and falls resulting in musculoskeletal injury remain as the main cause of injury.
