Hounslow Highways PFI & Network 2020
Golden Mile Transport Group
24 October 2012
What transport outcomes do we want to achieve?
• Targets for increasing walking, public transport and (particularly) cycling trips.
• Targets for improving road safety for all users.
• Better streetscapes, smoother traffic flow.
Our approved transport strategy (Local Implementation Plan for Transport 2011-2031) sets out our vision for the transport network over next 20yrs – in line with the Mayor of London’s Transport Strategy.
In short..
Hounslow Highway’s PFI Programme
• £100m investment in carriageway and footway over five years, with duty to maintain for a further 20.
• Comprehensive renewal of the footway, carriageway and street lighting.
• Opportunities to ‘automatically’ upgrade elements of the network that are non-compliant (e.g. drop kerbs, pinch points etc).
• Further opportunity to dovetail asset renewal with more substantial improvement works funded by TfL/s106 etc – reducing disruption and saving money.

Network 2020
Network 2020 – Year 1 (2013)
First year will be particularly challenging:
• Transition year – Hounslow Highways programme only provided mid-2012 – still subject to minor changes.
• Little time to design and secure approval for improvements to streets due for renewal early 2013.
• Some designs are already in process, or even approved, but this particular street may not be scheduled for asset renewal for some years.

Network 2020 Consultation – In Figures
575 individual comments245 individual sites64 identified respondents (by email), many more not
identified
35 on TfL roads (TLRN) (14%)38 relating to off-road routes (Greenways) (16%)37 relating to CSH9 (15%)135 relating to other sites (55%)
Thoughts on consultation process…
• Far more successful than anticipated.• Good to be able to quantify (and portray) extent of
feeling about an issue. • ‘Many eyes’ – helped unearth schemes and rationales
for improvements which may not have occurred to officers.
• Provides further contact with interested parties – not just ‘the usual suspects’.
• BUT…Huge challenge to meet aspiration!
