Reports, toolkits and best practice guides

Description

This handbook aims to give boroughs and utility networks the tools they need to collaborate on street works. While this document speaks most about street works collaboration in London, the principles are transferable to other local authority areas.

Description

The GLA’s Infrastructure Coordination Service (ICS) has been working alongside the London Borough of Tower Hamlets to develop a future proofing pilot project. The purpose of the pilot is to test policy implications and to better understand
requirements of successful future proofing interventions, so that we can establish best practice for boroughs around funding and delivering future proofing.

Description

The ICS Streets team are undertaking research to explore how future proofing works can be undertaken as part of collaborative works to minimise successive excavations on the road network. This document provides an overview of work being undertaken in this area.

Description

A practical handbook produced in partnership with the RTPI to guide planners on how they can coordinate utility infrastructure and sustainable development in their boroughs.

Description

Report on the proposal prepared and submitted to the TRFCC in January 2017 by London Drainage Engineering Group (LoDEG) members, led by the London Borough of Enfield (LBE). The Proposal aimed to investigate the catchment-scale benefit of wide-scale SuDS implementation, accounting for the potential to deliver a whole range of supplementary socio-environmental benefits to justify long-term collaborative funding opportunities.

Description

An Integrated Water Management Strategy (IWMS) for the Royal Docks & Beckton Riverside Opportunity Area prepared by the Greater London Authority, in partnership with a number of stakeholders including LB Newham, Environment Agency, and Thames Water. The IWMS considers the constraints and opportunities for sustainably managing water supply, demand and drainage in the study area in the context of the significant residential and commercial development anticipated over the coming decades, identified in the Opportunity Area Planning Framework. It provides a series of recommendations for the borough, water providers, developers and other key stakeholders to consider for implementation.

A pilot Sub-regional Integrated Water Management Strategy (IWMS) for East London prepared by the Greater London Authority in partnership with LB Enfield, LB Waltham Forest, LB Haringey, LB Hackney, LB Tower Hamlets, LB Newham, City of London, Environment Agency, Natural England and Thames Water. The IWMS considers the main impacts on water infrastructure and the water environment of different future scenarios, including growth forecasts and climate change. It identifies the benefits and trade-offs associated with different options to address these risks and provides a series of integrated recommendations for the boroughs, water companies and regulators to consider for implementation.
