Many thanks to those of you that attended Bridget Rosewell>’s lecture and book launch last week at Centre for London. If you still haven’t got your copy of ‘Reinventing London’ you can buy one here. Bridget’s connection with cities economics continues with her recent appointment to two expert panels that examine future possibilities for UK cities. The City Growth Commission, recently launched by the RSA, will investigate how Britain’s cities can become engines for growth to ensure that all regions are part of the UK’s economic recovery. Read more about the commission here. The London Infrastructure Group will assess the capital’s strategic infrastructure requirements to 2050, addressing such questions as airport capacity, policy towards green belt and densification change and how London’s projected population growth might be accommodated by the building of new towns.
