  4. A Host City Commitment A temporary route between competition venues and accommodation For athletes and others that make the Games happen Olympic Route Network (ORN) is c.1% of London’s roads c.1/3 of the ORN make up the Games Lanes Operate a couple of days before the Olympics

  5. Road impacts • Bloomsbury Media Hub • Olympic Route Network and Paralympic Route Network Transportation for athletes, officials, media and others working at Games in LOCOG procured vehicles. Across London. Formal phase of consultation mid November • Central London Zone Increased walking routes introduced to ensure safety of1000s of extra visitors, requiring extra traffic restrictions Around Hyde Park, Green Park and St James Park. • Road Events eg Cycle Road Race or Marathons On 7 of 16 Olympic Games and 2 of 9 Paralympic Games days, all but one on weekends, will displace ORN traffic on to an alternative route

  6. ORN and PRN ORN – Core route ORN – Venue-specific route ORN – Alternate

  7. ORN and PRN • Allow LOCOG Games Family (athletes/officials) to travel swiftly between accommodation and venues • Proportionate measures to improve general traffic flow • Potential traffic management measures to ensure reliable traffic flow:– Changes to traffic signal timings– Restricted turns– Suspension of parking and waiting bays, pedestrian crossings– Temporary Games Lanes • MYTH: ORN/PRN will be closed to traffic • TRUTH:The ORN/PRN will be open to traffic.  In some two lane sections, one will be reserved for the Games Family only. • Different conditions on different days

  8. ORN and PRN – Games lanes Wembley Arena Wembley Stadium ORN – Core route ORN – Venue-specific route ORN – Alternate ORN – Games lanes

  9. Alternative Olympic Route Network

  10. Central London ORN/PRN Detail ORN ORN will operate along Euston Road (to the west of station) and south from Upper Woburn Place towards Holborn Route is a key link for Media Transport Hub, to and from the Wembley venues and south to central London venues and accommodation. In use for the Olympic Games (27 July to 12 August) and a few days either side to accommodate the arrival and departure of Games participants. Games Lanes on the outside lane on Euston Road in both directions and south towards Holborn and Kingsway, from 6am to midnight or 24 hour. General traffic will need to use other lanes which could lead to queuing and delays. Road Event Alternative ORN Euston Road towards the city will be used as part of the Olympic Route Network. Measures will be much less than ORN or PRN

  16. Other impacts on the road network • Olympic and Paralympic Torch relay • Central London Zone • Live Sites • Local Area Traffic Management and Parking Plans • National Houses • Road Events • Test Events

  17. Road events Olympic Road Events Paralympic Road Events

  18. Some cultural event numbers…..

  19. Deliveries into secure areas Some areas will need to be secure during Games time • Venues run by LOCOG • Secure areas will include some hotels • Seperate security regime for Westfield Stratford http://newlogistics.ups.co.uk

  20. Enabling solutions Current freight movements are regulated by: • Traffic Commissioners / VOSA (Operator License regime) • Planning Conditions • Noise Abatement controls/Local Environmental Health • Kerbside TROs We will work with the appropriate authorities in order to help you Reduce, retime, re-route and revise mode

  21. The 4 R's • Reduce • Re-time • Re-route • Revise Mode • Same message to businesses and freight Remember – one size doesn’t fit all!

  22. Reduce • Right first time • Pre-order & pre-deliver • Postpone non-essential deliveries • Stockpile • Preventative maintenance in advance • Temporary stockrooms • Resource sharing • Consolidation Although it needs to be borne in mind that there is likely to be an increased demand for some products…… which may make it hard to ‘reduce’

  23. Re-route • Alternate routes • Avoid congestion hotspots • Avoids traffic management restriction • Increased journey times • Congestion • Restrictions

  24. Re-time • Change the Delivery / Collection Point: • E.g. Back door instead of front • Side street or staff car park • Change the Delivery / Collection Time: • 06:00-00:00 loading restrictions • Change the Delivery / Collection Day: • Venue specific stretches of the ORN / PRN • Days/times of least congestion • Security delays

  25. Linking it all up • Despite best efforts, unconstrained demand will exceed capacity in some areas • Planning ahead will be vital to ensure the Games Family, spectators and workforce arrive at events in good time, and that London and the UK continues to function • ORN: • www.tfl.gov.uk/orn • TfL: • www.tfl.gov.uk/2012 • Postcodes intersected by the ORN, road events and Central London Zone : • www.tfl.gov.uk/developers
