I didn't know this until I visited the July 7th forum here

16th May 2004: BBC Panorama broadcast London Under Attack.

Panorama played out a fictional terrorist attack to reveal whether London was prepared. The programme examined four simultaneous attacks on critical London Underground Tube Stations.

The program highlighted:

* Over half of businesses in the UK do not have emergency plans of any kind in place.

* Local authorities and police are in the frontline of alerting the public in the event of a terrorist attack.

Crowd Dynamics Ltd provides specialist advice and software for planning emergency evacuation from any scale - from buildings to cities, and was an adviser to Panorama.

Crowd Dynamics services include:

* Evacuation Analysis
* Systems for real-time alert by authorities or police
* Real-time Evacuation route planning software

Crowd Dynamics - Co-ordinates the multi-site evacuation strategy.

"Canary Wharf is one of Europe's most vibrant, dynamic business districts and prides itself on the quality of environment and service available to its tenants. CWG contacted Crowd Dynamics to assist us in evaluating our public areas for crowd control in a wide range of situations. Crowd Dynamics has an international reputation for developing mathematical models and solutions for various public events. In this case, we wanted a tool to provide a common basis for occupants of the Canary Wharf estate to develop compatible responses to various security and safety related incidents. While the Canary Wharf estate currently has 60,000 staff employed in the development, a robust tool capable of dealing with crowds over 100,000 has been developed in conjunction with our major business tenants. We believe this innovative approach is another first for Canary Wharf and Crowd Dynamics." Anthony Partington (Canary Wharf Managing Director)
