INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background SYSTRA has been commissioned by Renfrewshire Council (RC) to carry out a transport assessment in order to support the Council’s transport appraisal of their emerging Local Development Plan (LDP) 2. LDPs provide the vision for how communities will grow and develop in the future. They set out the spatial strategy for the area and guide the future use of land. They set out where future development should and should not occur, identifying opportunities for change, regeneration and enhancement. They also provide an indication of the level of infrastructure required for growth. The process of developing a LDP requires evidence on traffic related matters to be presented in the shape of a transport appraisal. The appraisal is aligned with Transport Scotland's Development Planning & Management: Transport Appraisal Guidance (DPMTAG) process, in that it will examine all modes of travel including rail, bus, road, and active travel (walking and cycling) connections and land use solutions. The appraisal outcomes will in turn support and inform the Council’s vision for its spatial strategy and help to determine the impact that the various development would have on local and strategic transport network. In preparation of this report consultations have been undertaken with key stakeholders including Renfrewshire Council and Transport Scotland. 1.2 Purpose of the report The purpose of this report is to provide the baseline evidence that will set the context for the transport appraisal. The report provides discussion around: The context of how Renfrewshire’s LDP sits within the wider planning policy; The existing socio – economic baseline for Renfrewshire; Development of the spatial strategy behind the LDP; Background evidence on travel demand and supply in the area. The Report concludes by drawing together key challenges, issues and opportunities facing Renfrewshire in the context of the LDP and how, in turn, the strategy is likely to influence both travel demand and supply over the life of the plan. The evidence base will also help to shape the transport planning objectives (TPOs) that will provide the framework of the transport appraisal. Renfrewshire LDP Transport Assessment GB01T17N62 Baseline Report 05/09/2018 Page 7/51 2. POLICY REVIEW 2.1 Overview There are a number of wider transport, planning, and economic policies, strategies, and plans, that will inform the development of the emerging LDP and its Supporting Transport Appraisal (STA). These documents include: 2.1.1 National policies and plans National Planning Framework 3, 2014 Scottish Planning Policy, 2014 Scotland’s National Transport Strategy, 2016 Infrastructure Investment Plan, 2015 2.1.2 Regional policies and plans Clydeplan Strategic Development Plan, 2017 Glasgow City Region City Deal Glasgow City Region Economic Action Plan, 2017 Local policies and plans Renfrewshire Local Development Plan, 2014 – 2024 Renfrewshire Monitoring Statement, 2016/17 Main Issues Report, 2017 Renfrewshire Local Transport Strategy, 2017 Renfrewshire Cycling Strategy, 2016-2025 Renfrewshire Outdoor Access Strategy, 2016-2026 Renfrewshire Community Plan, 2017-2027 Renfrewshire Strategic Economic Framework, 2016 - 2018 2.2 National policies and plans 2.2.1 National Planning Framework Scotland's National Planning Framework 3 (NPF3) was laid in the Scottish Parliament on 23 June 2014 and spatially sets out the Scottish Government’s Economic Strategy. It focuses on four outcomes: Creating a successful, sustainable place that supports sustainable economic growth and regeneration including the creation of well-designed places; Making Scotland a low carbon place, reducing carbon emissions and adapting to climate change; Ensuring that Scotland is a natural and resilient place, helping to protect and enhance its natural and cultural assets, facilitating sustainable use; Making Scotland a connected place, supporting better transport and digital connectivity. Renfrewshire LDP Transport Assessment GB01T17N62 Baseline Report 05/09/2018 Page 8/51 NPF3 also identifies the Government’s development priorities over the next 20 – 30 years including 14 national developments which support

    LGBTQ+ people have been a part of Glasgow’s history as long as the city has existed. Although the histories of the LGBTQ+ community are often ignored or not recorded in traditional ways, we can find traces of their lives and experiences. From the court records of male sex workers in the Broomielaw to listings and adverts for club nights in the 2000s, and from memories of the saunas and club scenes of the 1980s to the direct action and activism of LGBTQ+ groups like the Lesbian Avengers. The terms we use now for LGBTQ+ people are vital reminder of the history of criminalisation modern definitions for experiences and identities in Scotland, and the impact it had on the that have always existed; when discussing any LGBTQ+ community.

  • Glasgow LGBT History Walk

    Glasgow LGBT History Walk

    Glasgow LGBT History Walk This walk was devised by OurStory Scotland in 2014 at the time of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. The walk was led on 29 July by Donald Gray, Criz McCormick and Margaret Hamilton, and had input from many others, notably Tommy Clarke, Amy Murphy and Jeff Meek. In 2008, for the OurSpace exhibition at the Kelvingrove, the first LGBT exhibition at a major Scottish museum, OurStory Scotland created the OurSpace Map, mapping the past through places important to the LGBT community. Jeff Meek has created several LGBT Historical Maps of Scotland including an interactive Glasgow LGBT Historical Map that plots queer spaces and places that can be included along the way, or as detours from the route. The point of the History Walk is not to act as a guide to places that operate now, but to record a heritage of past places that have been significant for our community. This is a circular walk that can begin anywhere on the route, and of course can be walked in part or over several occasions. There is an extended loop out to the Mitchell Library. From there a diversion could be added to the Kelvingrove, site of the OurSpace exhibition in 2008. Another extended loop takes in the Citizens Theatre, People’s Palace and Glasgow Women’s Library. The extended loops can be omitted from a shorter central walk, or undertaken as separate walks. In July 2014, at the time of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, the walk started and finished at Pride House.

  • Handbook for Newcomers to Glasgow

    Handbook for Newcomers to Glasgow

    Handbook for newcomers to Glasgow What is this document? This document contains a list of organisations and services that will be useful to anyone who has recently moved to Glasgow. These range from health services to community groups to legal aid. Until now, lists of this kind have only been available for a fee, making them inaccessible to some. This means that many new migrants to Glasgow struggle to access vital services. For this reason, we at Migrant Voice saw it as important to create an accessible platform for people to share and find these services. We hope this project makes it easier for newcomers to settle into the Glasgow community. This document was created by a group of Migrant Voice volunteers in Glasgow (listed below), many of whom have first-hand experience of moving to the city and trying to find their feet. Thank you to those volunteers and to Sofi Taylor, our Scotland trustee, who supported and mentored the volunteers on this activity. The list is a work in progress and we will continue to add relevant information as we find it. Equally, if you know of organisations or services that aren’t listed but should be, please write to us at [email protected] to let us know. Who is Migrant Voice? Migrant Voice is a migrant-led organisation working with migrants from all around the world with all kinds of status, including refugees and asylum seekers. We develop the media skills and confidence of migrants with the aim of strengthening their voices in the media and civil society in order to counter xenophobia and build support for our rights.

That’s the pledge from Scott Martin, the new general manager of Braehead Leisure whose responsibilities now include the curling rink as well as Braehead Arena. Scott started his new extended role - he was previously general manager of Braehead Arena - after Bruce Harley took up a new position of guest services manager at intu Braehead. Scott is no stranger to curling and providing facilities for the sport. He began his career as an ice technician at the former Glasgow Summit Centre, which was home to an active curling club. Report and photo courtesy of Macdonald Media Scott then became an ice technician at intu Braehead when the centre opened in 1999 working on the then three ice rinks – The Arena, curling rink and the circular leisure rink, next to the food mall.
