Delivery Servicing Plans (DSP) Presentation


Ian Wainwright gave a presentation on the work that TfL had done in this area. Ian confirmed that the benefits from a DSP implementation were as follows:-



One example given on DSP’s implementation was the TfL “Palestra” Building, where deliveries were reduced by 25%. It was confirmed that the most difficult part of a DSP implementation was finding the right person to champion the work/project.


Some discussion took place on the growth of LGVs (vans up to 3.5 tonnes) and HGVs (lorries), it was agreed this subject should be included on the next CLFQP agenda.

Item 5

ODA update


David Silvey and Ian Wainwright updated the group on the current position with the Olympics.


There has been a change of responsibly and structure of the ODA relating to the “Delivery” aspects for Freight. With immediate effect TfL are responsible for:


1 Travel demand strategy

2 Travel demand work stream

3 Road Freight Management


Under these changes TfL will be responsible for delivery of the Olympic Route Network (ORN).

They hope to have the road maps out ASAP. Closely followed by the Road Event Plans. With local area traffic plans issued later.


Event testing will be carried out using the Mountain Bike event. David Silvey confirmed the Road Freight Working Group was working well and up to speed. The main contact for Freight will still be via David Silvey.


Members asked to be updated on Event timings. David agreed to inform DL on these.


Members were concerned that no fixed date for the issue of maps had been agreed, reminding everyone that these are important documents for the Freight industry to plan their operations during the Olympic Games.


Item 6

Cycling/Super Highways and TfL meeting update

Mike Bracey reported back on the meeting with Richard Shirley at TfL held on the 10 January.


Mike was concerned that the paper issued by Richard Shirley did not cover the concerns the CLFQP had raised on this subject., and thought no progress had been made from a Freight perspective. Mike also tabled a paper from the London Assembly Transport Committee on this subject. After a long discussion the general consensus was for support for the Cycle Hire Scheme but some reservation on the Superhighways. The main issues which were still outstanding are:


1 Changes to loading restrictions

2 Out of hour’s deliveries

3 TfL should be prepared to listen to our requirement/observations

4 How will drivers deal with the increase width of Superhighways


After the meeting MB & DL agreed to write/contact Richard Shirley asking for a formal reply or minutes to the meeting.





Item 7

Freight Consolidation Workshop 5th April 2011

DL outlined the half day workshop planned for 5th April this year. Confirming the venue would be in Regent Street and the proposal would be to have three formal presentations, followed by a discussion Workshop with an extended panel. This workshop is mainly for the benefit of the Boroughs as they have all put Freight Consolidation into their plans. Members were asked to consider who they should invite to this event.


DL agreed to prepare the necessary programme for this event.




Item 8

LIP/Transport Plan and the CLFQP

DL had analysed the Boroughs LIP’s/Transport plans and found these key areas which related to Freight.


1 Noise

2 Zero Emission/Electric Vehicles

3 Consolidation/Micro Consolidation

4 Reduction of “Heavy” vehicles on certain roads

5 Reduction of PCN’s

6 Reduced Congestion

7 Improving “Kerb Space”

Item 9

Members update / any other business

Mike Hudson outlined his work with the route Planning software that PIE were developing, and asked the Boroughs to prioritise the data he requires to complete this project.


Hugh Brennan confirmed the Westminster Parking Review which was out for consultation. He thanked those members who had responded.
