Arsenal must crack the tough Crystal Palace nut It’s Crystal Palace at home today and it is the type of game that four or five years ago I’d be pretty confident about us getting a win. But last season and this has pretty much dented any of that “we’re The Arsenal, we win this game today” mindset that I had developed over a number of. Arsenal’s recent revival ground to a halt as Crystal Palace frustrated the Gunners in a scrappy 0-0 Premier League draw at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday. Mikel Arteta’s side had won their previous four matches in all competitions, but they were fortunate to extend their unbeaten run to five games. Palace were unable to convert.

The Crystal Palace, located on the Prince Edward County Fairgrounds, was built in 1887. This historic, rustic facility is perfect for special events, themed galas and weddings. Located in the heart of Picton, the Crystal Palace is a beautiful venue with natural lighting and wood floors. Bookings are limited to the months of May through.

Organic chemistry – laboratory methods 3 Grading and Rules of evaluation The final grade will be weighted arithmetic mean of two grading elements: (1) lab work (60%) and (2) post-lab reports (40%) lab work will be graded twice – after 4th and 8th class; the lab work grade will be an arithmetic mean of those two grades. This laboratory manual is extremely comprehensive, introducing and explaining all of the major techniques that a student might encounter in an introductory organic chemistry lab. Every procedure is explained in details and is complemented by a series of photos and pictures to show the students how everything should look.

Dear Committee Members

This email is on behalf of Shape Better Streets, a resident campaign for traffic reduction and active travel in the LTN area you will be discussing next week. We broadly support the proposals in the officer paper.

You have more than enough paper for the meeting, including our detailed submission, supported by 11 local and London organisations and businesses supporting active travel and better environments. So we are only making a few brief points by way of summary, cutting through the noise and misinformation which has, unfortunately, characterised much of the local debate.

Traffic in the LTN area has increased to intolerable levels over recent years

The LTN area has been a victim of the trend, set out in the officer report, for minor roads to become overrun by traffic, most of it just passing through. In 2019, up to 12,000 vehicles a day were recorded on the northern part of Auckland Road, over three times the level recorded just six years previously in 2013, and more than on the nearby main road Central Hill. There can be no dispute about this level of traffic, it is recorded on a council monitoring device. In summer 2020, obviously an atypical year, residents recorded over 6,000 vehicles a day on Sylvan Hill. Auckland Road and other streets had turned into congested, polluted, relief roads for the local main road network, with appalling consequences for air quality, noise, and traffic safety. The impact on residents is obvious, but the area also includes the main walking routes for students at the Harris Crystal Palace and Cypress Schools. Traffic at these levels suppresses active travel, especially by children and older people: a number of us in the campaign would not have allowed children to walk or cycle on their own, or are middle-aged or older people who had stopped cycling because it felt too dangerous.

The temporary LTN has produced enormous benefits

The measures put in place in the spring and summer have transformed the local environment and residents’ travel choices. Motor traffic, obviously, and by design, has reduced significantly, restoring local air quality and tranquillity. Please disregard false claims opponents are making that the LTN has not changed travel behaviour. Over 200 residents of the LTN reported, in response to the council consultation, that they were walking and cycling more than before the spring lockdown, despite commuting continuing to be below normal levels. 70 respondents said their children have been walking and cycling more. Among other things, children are now cycling, some of them on their own, to Cypress School, something which simply did not happen previously. A resident count in November, just three months after the completion of the LTN, showed a tripling of walking and cycling in Sylvan Hill compared with June. Taken with the adjacent LTNs around Holmesdale Road and Albert Road, it is now possible to cycle fair distances on largely quiet streets. This has enabled people in middle and later years to switch many journeys from driving to cycling. This trend will surely strengthen if the LTN remains in place: evidence from similar schemes elsewhere is that the full extent of behaviour change takes time.

Claims about adverse impacts are at best highly exaggerated

There clearly has been some diversion of traffic on to streets in the Bromley Crystal Palace ward. But, at worst, it was nowhere near the levels seen previously in the Croydon streets further south, and has reduced further following the removal of the obstruction in Church Road over the summer and early autumn. Hamlet Road, another Bromley street, has benefited from significant traffic reduction. If problems remain, Bromley Council could follow the guidance issued by the central government supported by its controlling group, and introduce its own measures to limit through traffic. Claims of damage to the economy of the Triangle are even less plausible. 14 new businesses have opened in the Triangle in the last 6 months – in the middle of a pandemic. 85% of local businesses did not respond to the consultation, suggesting that among the very severe challenges many of them no doubt face at the moment, the LTN is not a cause of concern.

The proposals in the paper go a long way to meeting opponents’ concerns

Not only does the paper propose sensible changes, like moving the bus gate to improve access to the doctors’ surgery, it meets opponents’ original demands that residents should have better access through theLTN. In fact, many of our members are concerned that the proposals to allow local resident access by ANPR gates and through the bus gate may go too far towards accommodating short private vehicle use again. We are concerned this could lead to an increase in traffic, on Lancaster Road and Auckland Road particularly, which could start to suppress walking and cycling, especially by children and older people. Far from disregarding the views of opponents, as they are claiming, the council’s proposals potentially compromise the council’s environmental objectives to give them much of what they want.

Our view on the proposals

We broadly back the proposals, subject to the careful monitoring proposed during the experiment, but would urge the committee to support three suggestions.

First, the monitoring should pay close attention to traffic levels at key points inside the LTN. If motor traffic rises close to or beyond the 2,000 passenger vehicle units a day which is TfL’s yardstick for safe cycling routes without formal infrastructure, the concessions to local drivers should be reviewed.

Second, better availability of car club vehicles offers potential to encourage more residents to give up individual car ownership. This should encourage active travel further, since it will tend to limit car use to journeys for which there is no easy alternative. We would suggest officers look into creating more dedicated parking spaces for car club vehicles.

Third, the council has not been making enough of the way the very welcome measures it has taken across the borough are making cycling safer and more attractive, especially for people beyond the stereotypical cycling demographic.
