PART I.—RECOMMENDATIONS. RECOMMENDATION I: Junction of Kenton Road, Kenton Lane and Wood­ cock Hill: Proposed Improvement and Introduction of "No Waiting" Restrictions. As a result of site meetings at this junction between representatives of the Police, Ministry of Transport, Middlesex County Council, and Harrow and Wembley Borough Councils, it has been suggested that conditions might be improved by certain minor alterations to the layout, principally to reduce the " stagger" between Kenton Lane and Woodcock Hill, by widening the carriageway on the east corner of Woodcock Hill and the west corner of Kenton Lane. This will allow the central refuges in Kenton Road and Kenton Lane to be re-sited to reduce the clearance distances and improve both the safety and visibility of the junction. It is understood that these alterations will be carried out by the Middlesex County Council at some future date. As a temporary measure to provide assistance to pedestrians crossing Kenton Road, the minimum green time on the Kenton Lane/Woodcock Hill phase has been extended to twelve seconds. It has also been suggested that, in conjunction with the improvements, a " No Waiting " order should be introduced to prevent parking at the approaches to the junction. Your Committee have been informed that, subject to the ap­ proval of the Harrow Council and ratification by the Wembley Council, the Highways Committee of Wembley Council have resolved that an approach be made to the Ministry of Transport for the introduction of an order covering the four arms of the junction. 545 HIGHWAYS AND CLEANSING Your Committee are in agreement with the various proposals referred to above, subject to the proposed " No Waiting " restrictions in Kenton Lane being extended as far as the northbound bus stop in that road. The following recommendation is accordingly submitted insofar as the proposed restrictions are concerned. Resolved to RECOMMEND: That, subject to the proposed restrictions being extended to the north­ bound bus stopping place in Kenton Lane, the Council hereby approve the introduction of " No Waiting " restrictions at the approaches to the junction of Kenton Road, Kenton Lane and Woodcock Hill; and that the Borough Surveyor be instructed so to inform the Borough Surveyor of Wembley. RECOMMENDATION H: Proposed Introduction of "No Waiting" Restrictions in Part of Uxbridge Road, Pinner North and Hatch End Ward. Your Committee report that the service road on the south side of Uxbridge Road, Hatch End, has now been widened between Wellington Road and Corn­ wall Road. As the Council will be aware, traffic congestion occurs along this section of Uxbridge Road from Wellington Road to Anselm Road, and your Committee are of the opinion that a " No Waiting " order applied to the south side of Uxbridge Road along this section would prevent this congestion and improve conditions at the junctions. A site meeting has taken place with the Police and the London Traffic Man­ agement Unit, at which it was indicated that, upon formal application by the Borough Council, the Minister of Transport would probably be prepared to approve a " No Waiting " order applying to the main carriageway of this length of road. The following recommendation is accordingly submitted. Resolved to RECOMMEND: That the Council hereby approve the introduction of " No Waiting " re­ strictions along the south side of Uxbridge Road, Hatch End, from Wellington Road to Anselm Road, but excluding the adjacent service road; and that the Borough Surveyor be authorised to take all necessary action to give effect to this resolution. RECOMMENDATION III: Proposed Introduction of "No Waiting" Restrictions in Part of Kenton Lane Near Belmont Circle, Belmont Ward. Your Committee have given consideration to various schemes for improving traffic conditions in the vicinity of Belmont Circle, and the Borough Surveyor was authorised to make a preliminary approach to the Ministry of Transport for the introduction of " Unilateral Waiting " restrictions in Kenton Lane from Belmont Circle to the railway bridge. The Ministry do not look with favour on " Unilateral Waiting " restrictions, and in particular at this site, due to the difficulty of preventing loading on the side on which waiting is prohibited, but your Committee have been informed that the Ministry are prepared to make regulations to impose " No Waiting " restrictions for a distance of 425 feet from Belmont Circle on both sides of the road. Your Committee are of the opinion that such regulations should be made, and accordingly submit the following recommendation. HIGHWAYS AND CLEANSING 546 Resolved to RECOMMEND: That the Council hereby approve the introduction of " No Waiting " re­ strictions in Kenton Lane for a distance of approximately 425 feet in a westerly direction from Belmont Circle; and that the Borough Surveyor be authorised to take all necessary action to give effect to this resolution. RECOMMENDATION IV: Street Lighting Conversion Programme, Stage 12: Roads of a Special Character: Harrow-on-the-Hill. On 24th January, 1963, the Council agreed that the following roads in the Harrow-on-the-Hill area, viz., Middle Road, Crown Street, Byron Hill Road and Waldron Road, be treated as roads of a special character and provided with lighting installations similar to those in surrounding roads in this area. Your Committee have now considered, and recommend acceptance of, a quotation amounting to £1,008 18s. 3d. submitted by Osram (G.E.C.) Ltd., for providing in these roads 27 units comprising 2/40 watt " Chelsea " lanterns mounted on 22 octagonal aluminium columns and 5 wall brackets. The total estimated additional cost of service connections by the Eastern Electricity Board, disconnection and removal of gas lamps, reinstatement of surfaces, and the salary of a Clerk of Works, is £686 15s. 9d. Provision for all the expenditure involved has been made in your Com­ mittee's current capital estimates, the method of meeting the expenditure being a matter for the Finance Committee. Resolved to RECOMMEND: (1) That, subject to the approval of the Minister of Transport and of the appropriate authorities under the Air Navigation Acts, 1920 and 1936, the Council hereby (a) accept the quotation of Osram (G.E.C.) Ltd., amounting to £1,008 18s. 3d., for the supply and erection, in Middle Road, Crown Street, Byron Hill Road and Waldron Road, of 27 street lighting installations, com­ prising 2/40 watt " Chelsea " lanterns mounted on 22 octagonal aluminium columns and 5 wall brackets; and (b) approve the additional expenditure, amounting to a total of £686 15s. 9d., for service connections by the Eastern Electricity Board (£383 15s. 9d.), disconnecting and removing gas lamps (£102), reinstatement of surfaces (£176), and the salary of a Clerk of Works (£25), as detailed in the report of the Highways and Cleansing Committee of 24th September, 1963. (2) That, with regard to the service connections to be carried out by the Eastern Electricity Board and the disconnection of gas lamps to be under­ taken by the North Thames Gas Board, the Council hereby agree to dispense with the necessity for formal contracts. (3) That, in connection with the accepted quotation, the Council hereby agree to the incorporation, where necessary, in the proposed contract, of either the Institution of Mechanical Engineers' or the Institution of Electrical Engineers' Model Form of General Conditions of Contract (Home with Erection), but excluding the supplementary clause " Variation in Costs." (4) That the Town Clerk and Borough Surveyor be authorised to take all necessary action in this matter, including negotiating with the owners con­ cerned for permission to erect street lighting wall brackets on their properties, and preparing and sealing any necessary documents. (Note: The Finance Committee recommend that this expenditure be met by loan.) 547 HIGHWAYS AND CLEANSING RECOMMENDATION V: Reconstruction of Cannon Lane, South of Village Way, Pinner South Ward. Your Committee have considered tenders, received in response to public ad­ vertisement, for the carrying out of these reconstruction works, and recommend acceptance of the lowest tender received. Your Committee also recommend approval of the additional amount for Clerk of Works salary referred to here- under. Provision for the expenditure has been made in your Committee's current capital estimates, the method of meeting the expenditure being a matter for the Finance Committee. Resolved to RECOMMEND: That the Council hereby (a) accept the fixed price tender of William Old Ltd., of Pinner Road, North Harrow, amounting to £23,020 14s. 5d. (being the lowest received), for the work of reconstruction of Cannon Lane, Pinner, south of Village Way; and (b) approve additional expenditure of £700 for the salary of a Clerk of Works; and that the Town Clerk be authorised to pre­ pare and seal a contract accordingly.

'\Q Memorandum for the Cabinet hy the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Transport. 1. As the Cabinet is aware the question of the increasing congestion of London traffic has assumed an urgent aspect and. the Government is being pressed by all parties in the House of Commons and by the Press to find some solution to the problem. 2. The subject has received consideration from a number of Commissions and Committees during the past IS years. The Royal Commission on London Traffic, 1905, the Select Committee on Motor Traffic, 1913, and the Select. Committee on Transport (Metropolitan Area), 1919, in their reports all advocated the setting up of a London Traffic Authority. Finally in 1920 the Departmental Committee on London Traffic under the Chairmanship of the late Mr. Kennedy-Jones, appointed by the then Minister of Transport, recommended, the creation of an executive authority as a permanent statutory body under the Minister of Transport with power to deal ""ith all matters connected with London Traffic. The objections to this proposal were that it would, place a considerable charge on the Exchequer for what may be regarded as a local service, and. would remove from the control of the local authorities an important section, of the work which is included in the term "local government services". For these reasons and also in view of the general financial situation, it was decided, not 'to.

  • The Southern Railway's Response to Bus Competition, 1923-39
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by White Rose E-theses Online Public passenger transport in inter-war Britain: the Southern Railway’s response to bus competition, 1923-39 REGINALD ARTHUR MURRAY DAVIES Doctor of Philosophy University of York Railway Studies SEPTEMBER 2014 Abstract Abstract Scholarly criticisms of the quality of British railway management between the world wars have focused partly on the allegedly inept reaction to the threat of bus competition. By contrast this thesis shows that the Southern Railway (SR) developed policies and practices with regard to the bus industry that were rational and broadly successful given the legal, political and economic circumstances. The SR was probably atypical of the four major inter-war railways. Because of the social and economic geography of the areas it served, it suffered less from bus competition and a smaller decline in receipts from passenger trains. Nevertheless in common with the rest of the industry, management action was greatly hampered in the 1920s by political opposition to direct bus operation. A key finding is that legislation in 1928 had the unintended effect of determining that the railways instead entered into partnerships with bus companies. In the SR’s case this policy produced considerably greater returns on capital than historians have hitherto thought. The SR influenced rather than controlled its associated bus companies, allowing them considerable commercial freedom. Even so the SR was largely able to shape network development to its advantage and to introduce measures, such as through ticketing, that were seen by contemporaries as key elements in reducing public-transport competition and thus enhancing consumer benefits.
