About: Metropolitan Board of Works
An Entity of Type: legislature, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Metropolitan Board of Works (MBW) was the principal instrument of local government in a wide area of Middlesex, Surrey, and Kent, defined by the Metropolis Management Act 1855, from December 1855 until the establishment of the London County Council in March 1889. Its principal responsibility was to provide infrastructure to cope with the rapid growth of the metropolis, which it accomplished with varying degrees of success. The MBW was an appointed rather than elected body. This lack of accountability made it unpopular with Londoners, especially in its latter years, when it fell prey to corruption.

  • Metropolitan Board of Works (MBW) byl hlavní správní institucí Londýna od roku 1855 do ustavení správní organizace hrabství Londýn - rady hrabství Londýn v roce 1889. Jeho hlavním úkolem bylo zajistit infrastrukturu pro rychle se rozvíjející Londýn. (cs)
  • Der Metropolitan Board of Works (MBW; deutsch etwa Großstädtische Baubehörde) war ein Zweckverband der Metropole London, der von 1855 bis 1889 existierte. Er war zuständig für die Metropolis, bestehend aus den Cities of London und Westminster sowie umliegenden Parishes in Middlesex, Surrey und Kent, dem heutigen Inner London. Hauptaufgabe des MBW war es, in dem damals in viele eigenständige Gemeinden zersplitterten Ballungsraum Infrastrukturbauten zentral zu planen und zu bauen, um mit dem raschen Wachstum Schritt halten zu können. Die Vertreter des MBW wurden nicht gewählt, sondern ernannt. Die dadurch fehlende Transparenz war die Hauptursache für die in der Spätphase um sich greifende Korruption und den Ersatz des MBW durch den London County Council. (de)

Cet organisme n'était donc pas redevable, ce qui le rendit impopulaire aux yeux de la population, surtout dans les dernières années, à cause de scandales de corruption politique. L'architecte William Tite (1798-1873) en fut un des présidents. (fr)

  • 首都土木委員会(しゅとどぼくいいんかい、英語: Metropolitan Board of Works、MBW)は、1855年12月からロンドン郡議会が設立される1889年3月までの間、ロンドン全体の行政管理を行っていた主要機関である。首都土木局、首都工務局、首都公共事業庁、首都事業委員会、首都圏建設委員会、首都建設委員会、首都圏建設局などとも訳される。主な責務はロンドンの急速な発展に対処するためのインフラストラクチャーを整備することであり、出来の程度の差こそあれ委員会はそれを達成した。ロンドンの土木事業を管轄する組織としてはイギリス史上初である。首都土木委員会は投票制ではなく任命制の組織であった。そのため組織の答責性が欠如しており、ロンドン市民の不評を買っていた。後年汚職にまみれた際はそれが顕著であった。 (ja)
