1. Heading TfL Sustainability Approach and Resource management Helen Woolston, TfL Sustainability Coordinator BASE London June 2013

2. Heading Transport Strategy and Sustainability Goals Support economic development and population growth Enhance the quality of life for all Londoners Improve the safety and security of all Londoners Improve transport opportunities for all Londoners Reduce transport’s contribution to climate change, and improve its resilience Goals incorporate sustainable development principles ‘’every day we will deliver safe, reliable, clean sustainable and accessible transport’’

3. Heading 3

4. 4 Guiding Question Will the project, plan or operation have a positive or negative impact on the indicator? What is the magnitude of the impact? What is the likelihood of the impact? Ranking Evidence and additional notes to support the assessment What action can be taken to improve the impact? How will the impacts be monitored and managed? Will freight be transported by rail or any other sustainable modes? NegativeModerateHigh Construction material is unable to be delivered and taken off site by train which will cause disruption during the construction phase. Transporting by rail is being explored. Number of freight movements will be recorded and by which mode. Steps 1-3: Impact, magnitude & likelihood

NegativeModerateHigh Construction material is unable to be delivered and taken off site by train which will cause disruption during the construction phase. Transporting by rail is being explored. Number of freight movements will be recorded and by which mode. Steps 3-4: Record Outcome of Discussions Delivering outcomes: Through Benefits Realisation Plans Through Critical Design Features Through Procurements

6. Heading 6 Sustainability Assessment

7. Heading Resource Use and Waste Management Consolidation centres Materials Storage Consider moving materials and waste by sustainable transport Sustainable design eg recycled content, local materials, minimised design Water saving measures 7

8. Heading Consolidation Centres A distribution facility through which material deliveries can be channelled to construction sites. Materials can be carefully handled and stored where there are no opportunities to do so on sites. By using a central location, contractors would be able to bring and store materials for re-use at a later stage and pick up other material/plant during the same journey, improving the overall resource efficiency of a construction project. 8

9. Heading Materials Storage 9 Contractors should consider suitable locations where to store materials and/or equipment Locate away from sensitive receptors (eg residents) to avoid disruption while accessing the stores during sensitive hours A dedicated storage area would eliminate or reduce the need to bring materials by road each shift

10. Heading Sustainable Transport of Materials and Waste Distribution Service Plans Transport by rail, barge, river –Eg Crossrail excavated material to Wallasea Island, new RSPB reserve 10

11. Heading Water Saving Measures Identified by contractor for a new project: –Use of Siltbuster to process concrete washout to a suitable standard for re-using wastewater for cleaning purposes or dust suppression on site –Agreement with concrete suppliers to washout at their facilities –Rain water harvesting to allow for re-use of water for dust suppression and/or cleaning of welfare units, by allowing space for catchment area when designing welfare facilities –Use of concrete cloths as an alternative to traditional concreting in-situ for stabilising of ground. Alternative material brings a low environmental impact in terms of less water required, no wastage, no nuisance generated by having to break it down when no longer needed. 11
