Construction Logistics Plan Project: Update to

CLIG

Wednesday 29 March

Dan Evanson

Presentation Scope

• CLP Technical Guidance Update

• CLP Training update

• Forthcoming project dates of note

• Questions

Technical Guidance ipdf update

Key Technical Guidance Alterations

As a reminder, we aimed to consider the following:

• Content and language have been refined – SIMPLE

• There is less ambiguity in the guidance – CLEAR

• There are now multiple levels – PROPORTIONATE

• The guidance follows a clearly defined structure –CONSISTENT

• Tables required are produced automatically by the Trip Generator Template that accompanies the Guidance –EFFICIENT

• The use of a standardised methodology will enable accurate review – COMPARABLE

CLP Technical Guidance Update

• Since I last presented the ipdf to you it has been discussed at the CLIG Workstream 2 working Group group meeting

• The output of this is a revised draft of a new CLP Technical Guidance Document

• Major changes are few but…. it will be printable!• Reined in some of the language so that we reiterate

rather than re-write existing CLP policy• Have added definitions to deliver the clarity and

consistency required


Medium impact site

• For developments with a medium impact, the overall programme will need to be identified including the start of demolition/enabling works and the peak period of activity.

High impact site

• For developments with a high impact, the pre-contract engagement of a contractor or construction logistics expert is suggested to ensure the Outline CLP is as accurate and realistic as possible. The programme for the works should be defined including start and end dates for each stage of construction and a description of how works are expected to occur at the different stages.


• We would like to confirm some areas of the guidance with you:

• Outline CLP

• Medium impact



• Outline CLP

• High impact



• Detailed CLP

• Medium impact



• Detailed CLP

• High impact

CLP Trip Generation Template

From this…..To this!

CLP Training Update

• Engaging interactive sessions that provide delegates with the opportunity to both explore the new guidance and then put their learning into practice

• The training takes a balanced approach – acknowledging the challenges that individuals face and providing them with the opportunity to consider solutions and ways around these

• Brings together individuals from across the industry facilitating collaboration opportunities and allowing them to network

• Accredited by the CILT

Last time I told you we were adopting a novel training approach.

This time I thought I’d just show you:

Forthcoming dates of interest

• Late February: Tech Guidance Draft Shared with CLIG volunteers

• 14 April: Final Draft Guidance submitted (original date was 13 March)

• By 1 May: Pilot training delivered• This is a key focus – we are holding 5/6 May

(Thursday/Friday)• please let us know if you would like to attend?

• 22 May: Full training delivery begins • There will be some 200 funded places, please register

your interest with me

• Central/ Inner / Outer London representation

• Mix of phases of construction

• DMS / No DMS / Holding Areas / No Holding Areas

• Efficient and less efficient sites

How do you identify the less efficient sites?

March 29, 2017

Identifying the less efficient sites


• A select group of Hauliers was invited to participate in a survey in January.

• We are now contacting additional Hauliers to gather feedback on their delivery process.

1) Based on your experience what are the main reasons behind construction delivery inefficiencies?2) How do you usually arrange your deliveries (i.e. by delivery management system)?3) Are there any sites in London that are noticeably less efficient at receiving deliveries?4) Waiting times to certain sites are perceived to be high. Do you believe there is a reason for this?

Initial insights

March 29, 2017 Delivery Inefficiency Research

Data

• Time spent on site for delivery/muckaway vehicles can vary significantly at different sites. The mean time a delivery/muckaway vehicle spent at one of the sites varied from 26 minutes to 45 minutes (depending on the day).

• The variation in this mean time often came from incidents on site (equipment breaking down, vehicles blocking logistics bays).

• Some sites under-booked vehicle deliveries significantly (only 26% of vehicles entering site were booked)

- Vehicles turning out without booking were able to access the site by making an emergency booking.- A small number were turned away.

Initial insights


Data continued

• Other sites overbooked vehicle deliveries (only 40% of booked deliveries actually arrived on site during observation period).

• The standard deviation for delivery time was consistently around 25 minutes (i.e. some vehicles spent 10 minutes, others 100 minutes).

• So far, less than 5% of deliveries have not been accepted on site.

• Initial observations suggest that delivery/muckaway vehicles tend to arrive in batches

March 29, 2017

Initial insights


Delivery Management System (DMS)

• DMS appear to be used to schedule a significant proportion, but not all vehicle trips. Also appears there is some speculative booking of slots to cover all eventualities.

• Significant variance witnessed between scheduled vehicle arrival time and actual arrival time at site in some case. Although this didn’t lead to the vehicle being turned away (if late) or having to wait (if early).

• Vehicles with no booking were witnessed either being turned away (failed delivery) or having to call the site to make an emergency booking and having to wait to gain entry.

March 29, 2017

Initial insights


Vehicle Holding areas

• They allow site gate staff to check vehicles against DMS schedules and in particular sort out issues i.e. vehicles not booked in

• Vehicles can be held as necessary to allow others vehicles to clear the site or if a problem occurs on site

• Multiple vehicles i.e. tippers during the excavation phase can queue and allow almost seamless excavation and loading of vehicles to occur

• The holding areas require careful and assertive management by gate staff / traffic marshals to ensure vehicles / drivers manoeuvre / park up properly and cause minimal disruption to other road users and VRUs

March 29, 2017

Initial insights


Safety

• Depending on site location, several pedestrians tried to walk through the logistics zone to get through to the other side of the site. They were all stopped before entering but all attempted to enter the logistics zone.

• At least one cyclist cycled along a footpath as he could not use the road running through the Logistics Zone.

• The safety impacts of the logistics zone and its impact on pedestrians could be modelled along with the impact on pedestrian flows, although outside of the scope of the study.

March 29, 2017

What’s next?


• Follow up data collection

• Carry out site inspections in advance of data collection at agreed sites

• Data analysis and Impact assessment modelling

• Congestion• Incidents• Air Quality• Noise• Infrastructure

• Review findings

Supporting communities and enabling growth March 2017

Isle of Dogs and South PoplarOpportunity Area Planning Framework

Isle of Dogs and South PoplarTransport Briefing Pack

The purpose of this briefing pack is to highlight the transport work programme, challenges and proposed draft interventions to support the OAPF.

Contents

▪ Opportunity and Growth Areas

▪ OAPF transport challenges

▪ Interventions and measures to address challenges

▪ Focus on: Freight

The need to proactively support Opportunity Areas

Significant growth across the east and south east sub-region, most of which will be housed through Opportunity Areas and Areas for Intensification

East and south east London sub-region is forecast to grow by 160,000 jobs and 600,000 people by 2031 (current London Plan)

A significant proportion of this will take place within the Isle of Dogs and South Poplar Opportunity Area –There is a need to proactively plan and support growth as well as existing communities here

60

Isle of Dogs and South Poplar Transport Challenges

OAPF Transport & movement challenges

Maximise transport investment and use across the OA

61

Improve local connectivity and reduce severance

Manage public transport crowding and capacity

Making better use of the public transport network

DLR slide

Enhancements to DLR Network to create metro-style system▪ DLR rolling stock replacement

programme rolled out across network

▪ Incremental service patterns to provide significant capacity to network – 30tph network wide

▪ Station upgrades and enhancements (including public realm), e.g. Crossharbour & Poplar

▪ Enable travel choice through improved access to/from South Quay and Poplar stations, e.g. bridges

▪ Wider influence of transport corridors – e.g. effect of improving interchange at Lewisham and Shadwell

65

Making better use of the public transport network

More can be done to make best use of the strategic public transport network. This could include: ▪ Jubilee Line capacity

enhancements 2019 and beyond

▪ Potential Elizabeth Line enhancements

▪ Proposed Elizabeth Line extension to Slade Green

DLR slide

The Isle of Dogs and South Poplar sits at the epicentre of broader change and growth in London.

TfL is looking at to how public transport needs to support inner east London up to 2041, through further enhancements to the existing public transport network and the potential for new infrastructure and services entirely.

66

Strategic capacity enhancement

Leamouth

▪ A series of further bridges have been proposed across Leamouth and will be taken forward as part of the Housing Zone and Royal Docks OAPF / EZ LEP Bid

North Greenwich – Isle of Dogs

▪ Short term - New pier/river services to enable walking and cycling connectivity

Pre-feasibility work has taken place to understand potential for decked structure across Aspen Way and DLR depot in order to address N-S physical severance and barriers to travel

To get full benefit of the scheme it would need to include interfaces with Billingsgate, Tower Hamlets College, North Quay and Poplar High Street

Assumes upgraded Poplar station, providing new key interchange and access point to Poplar, Canary Wharf and Crossrail.

Assumes Aspen Way footbridge upgrade to the west

Ongoing engagement taking place (via OAPF) with Canary Wharf Group, LBTH, Poplar Harca & other associated landowners

look at new crossings at South Dock▪ Phase 1 (optioneering and feasibility)

has identified a preferred crossing point 1 and second crossings on site of existing Wilkinson Bridge or further west (2)

▪ New fit-for-purpose bridge infrastructure would enable resilience and crowding relief for DLR

▪ Phase 2 of the work (which could lead to Planning Application) due to take place in 2017

▪ Engagement has taken place with interested parties throughout process

Other bridges▪ Further work is being undertaken

(via planning application process) to understand what improvements are needed for Pepper Street Bridge and Poplar footbridge.

▪ We need to make more efficient use of the road space, through facilitating use of space-efficient forms of transport which focus on the movement of people and goods, rather than vehicles

▪ Create an environment that encourages people to walk and cycle for local journeys and the last mile of longer journeys

▪ Reduce pressure on the public transport network through a range of viable alternative options

▪ Improve health and wellbeing through providing a network of safe and attractive connections linking existing and emerging neighbourhoods and centres

70

Creating healthy streets (1)

A vision for new and upgraded local connections in the OA, to:

A Local Connections Strategy and Design Guide will look to address the barriers to active travel in the OA, as part of a wider package of measures to mitigate the impact of growth in the area over the twenty year OAPF plan period.

71

Creating healthy streets (2)

Orientating: Enhancing local character and identity through a sequence of connected public realm and open space assets.

Proposals: Thames Path upgrades; station public realm improvements; wayfinding strategy

Bridging: Overcoming local barriers to movement including the waterways and major lines of infrastructure.

Proposals: South Dock bridges; Leamouth bridges; Aspen Way footbridge

Upgrading: Investing in the existing street network to ensure the needs of all users are balanced and the street environment is safe, inviting and attractive.

Proposals: Improvements to pedestrian and cycle safety, accessibility and public realm upgrades on key corridors in the OA, junction improvements; connections to CS3; freight infrastructure.

Linking BridgingLinking: Major new connections within the OA and outwards to surrounding areas.

Proposals: New cross-river connections; North-south spine through the OA; Aspen Way decking; connections to the Leaway to Poplar Riverside Housing Zone

Orientating Upgrading

72

Improving how we travel

The transport package needs to provide genuine alternatives to car use, as well as provide greater choice in how we travel to enable access to opportunities

In addition to infrastructure, there needs to be consideration for how people and goods travel. This could include:

Address the dominance of peak travel

Growth in the OA increases the potential for internalised and local trips

Provide enhanced information and travel planning measures to help us manage how and when we travel, e.g. congestion hotspots

A freight and servicing strategy

A robust strategy and package of measures to manage construction, servicing and delivery through the OA.

An appropriate approach to cycle parking, storage, together with car parking, to be considered within the planning process

Summary - Outline draft strategic and local transport requirements

73Subject to change as work programme develops

74

Focus on freight

Freight – Working at the OAPF scale

• TfL works at a number of levels to make freight safer, greener and more efficient:

– Industry level: FORS, CLOCS, Direct Vision Standard

– The city scale: Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ)

– Development scale: Construction Logistics Plans & Delivery and Serving Plans

– Opportunity Area scale: Opportunity Area Planning Framework

• Area of high growth

• The need to plan for good growth is recognised

• Planning freight transport is key to achieving good growth in OAPF

75
