File baseSeries HLG, subseries HLG 159

Context

An astoundingly accomplished submission of evidence to the GLDP inquiry that sets out the case of the Grove Park Group: essentially that the Ringways (and in particular the West London Interchange where M3, M4 and Ringway 2 were to meet) would destroy most of their suburb. They surveyed the area that the interchange would take up and became untaught experts in the still-emerging science of noise profiling to produce a six-sheet plan of Grove Park and how it would be affected. This file contains a photocopy of those six sheets. By their reckoning 68% of the built-up area would be rendered uninhabitable by the proposals for the West London Interchange.

This file exists in virtually the same format at Chiswick Library.

Contents of note

  • Junction layouts for all three junctions, not always perfectly matching GLC proposals and perhaps drawn from draft proposals instead.
  • Rather shocking shaded area showing noise contours for the new roads.
