How this respondent action was interpreted

PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the published response wording shown below.

PFD Monitor interpretation
Investigate options to improve the path and bank at location 5, including assessing lighting levels.

Verbatim wording from the response
“The river path at location 5 is at its narrowest, being close to the river, separated by a narrow steep bank, which shows some damage. There are also tree branches extending over the path close to head height. The path has no lighting but has borrowed lighting from the streetlights on the Chadwell Lane development and the High Street. At location 5 the river is 60cm – 70cm deep with around 20 cm of silt. On the opposite bank a brick pumping house is visible, with significant graffiti and direct access to the river.”

How this respondent action was interpreted

PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the published response wording shown below.

PFD Monitor interpretation
Install New River Path warning signage beside the location 1 kissing gate.

Verbatim wording from the response
“Location 1 has a kissing gate entrance to the New River path, with palisade fencing on either side in good condition. There is a small notice on the gate concerning right of access and entry at one’s own risk. However, the Thames Water standard hazard warning sign stating, ‘danger deep water, no swimming, no boating, no fishing’, which should be displayed at each access point to the river is not in place in this location. Arrangements have been made for this to be installed so it will mirror the signage at location 6 (see further comments below).”

How this respondent position was interpreted

PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the published response wording shown below.

PFD Monitor interpretation
Lighting on venue grounds is Alexandra Palace’s responsibility, while railway fencing is Network Rail’s responsibility.

Verbatim wording from the response
“I will address point number 1, as the other issues appear to relate to the responsibilities of Alexandra Palace and Network Rail respectively. Point 2 relates to lighting on the venue grounds, which is for Alexandra Palace, and fencing separating the venue from the railway track would appear to be the responsibility of Network Rail.”
