Quick Start GuideThis interactive map illustrates the location of some of the challenges on London’s road network. These represent some of the issues that have been considered by the Roads Task Force in formulating their report entitled ‘The vision and direction for London’s streets and roads’.

Add Data Layers to the map by clicking an item in the legend on the right. Context layers can be added or removed by selecting items under the ‘Contextual Data’ heading in the bottom left corner of the page.

Add Data Themes (layers grouped by RTF-identified functions) by using the buttons on the left of the screen.

Additional Information about each data layer can be viewed by clicking the i icons.

?Living

Providing good and inclusive places which support vital activity – economic, cultural and community. Bustling high streets, successful neighbourhoods, thriving town centres & world class destinations.

International, Metropolitan & Major Town Centres across London, including those identified as potential future centresSource: London Plan (2011)

World Heritage Sites as defined by United Nations Educa-tional, Scientific and Cultural OrganisationSource: UNESCO

Unlocking

Increasing accessibility, connectivity and urban quality of growth areas to unlock development potential and deliver the homes, jobs, and new economic sectors that London needs as it grows.

Opportunity Areas are the capital’s major brownfield land sites with significant capacity for new housing, commercial and other development linked to existing or potentialimprovements to public transport accessibility.Source: London Plan (2011)

Intensification Areas are built-up areas with good existing or potential public transport accessibility which can support redevelopment at higher densities. They have significant capacity for new jobs and homes but at a level below that which can be achieved in the opportunity areas.Source: London Plan (2011)

Moving

Helping people, goods and services get from A to B, providing for efficient and reliable movement by different modes, supporting access to jobs and services.

Network Pinch Points are locations on the road network where, on average, levels of delay were high on weekdays in 2011-12 in one or more of the AM peak, inter-peak and PM peak time periods. Trafficmaster delay data is used to identify the locations. Source: TfL Traffic Analysis Centre

Level Crossings of railway lines and roads. These constrain the capacity of both the road and railway networks, as well as being a safety concern.Source: TfL

Road congestion indicating locations with the greatest delay (vehicle hours) on a typical weekday in 2011-12, considering all time periods and compared to free flow (night time) speeds.Source: TrafficMaster data and DfT Annual Average Daily Flow data

Junction Delay Forecasts project the change in delay per vehicle in 2031 compared to 2009 (AM Peak only). This is based on London Plan population and employment growth and committed trans-port investment.Source: TfL Highway Assignment Models (HAMs)

Cycle Super Highway both existing and proposed routes at time of publication providing faster, safer and direct routes to and from Central London.Source: TfL

Sustaining

Reducing emissions from the road network deliverying greener, cleaner, quieter streets and a healthier, more active city.

Noise Issue Areas Defra identified Important Areas (IAs) and Important Areas containing First Priority Locations (FPLs) on London’s major roads as part of the Defra Noise Action Plan process. These represent locations with the greatest human exposure to traffic noise.Source: Defra

2010 & 2015 NO concentrations: highlighting areas with an annual mean in excess of EU Limit Values (45mg/m³), both observed (2010) and forecast (2015).Source: TfL

²

Functioning

Ensuring essential access to premises for deliveries and servicing, effective use of kerb space to support activities in town centres and upgrading utilities under the roads to serve London’s growing needs.

TfL Lane Rental roads require any roadworks to pay a daily access fee. The scheme is in place on some of London’s busiest roads encourages quicker and more collaborative working.Source: TfL

24hr Car Flow shows the number of car vehicles per annual average day in 2011.Source: DfT

24hr HGV Flow shows the number of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGV) per annual average day in 2011.Source: DfT

Journey Time Reliability highlights the roads with poor journey time consistency. This is based on the percentage of nominal 30 minute average length journeys completed within 5 minutes of this time.Source: TfL Traffic Analysis Centre

Strategic Industrial Land identified as land protected for industrial use in the London Plan. Industrial land typically generates a high number of freight vehicles and requires good access.Source: London Plan (2011)

Protecting

Improving safety and reducing collisions, particularly for vulnerable users and ensuring streets are places where people feel secure.

Safety Priorities identify a number of roads and junctions which are earmarked for priority improvement.Source: TfL

Reported crimes (by ward) with high number of reported crimes.Source: Metropolitan Police Recorded Offences 2011/12
