CURDWORTH VILLAGE HALL 200 CLUB Winning ticket number for July 2019 Congratulations Ticket no 141 C&P Simmonds 3 To advertise in next months edition contact us at [email protected] HS2 UPDATE Residents will have noticed that ‘enabling works’ in our area, before construction of bridges and viaducts starts, continue to gather pace with the realignment of electricity pylons by Western Power Distribution and high pressure gas mains by Cadent at the former rugby ground, now well underway. Alterations to both services are being carried out without disruption to domestic and commercial supply, but occasional inconvenient road closures are required to facilitate the works. Vegetation clearance has also taken place at points along the A446, this being most visible near its junction with Gorsey Lane, where HS2 will bridge the A446, and south of Coleshill where road widening is required to serve the new intermodal railway station to be built close to Melbicks Garden Centre. Parish representatives on the Special Management Zone (SMZ) forum, which meets bi-monthly, have asked HS2 Ltd to minimise such clearance where possible, as mature vegetation is seen as a very effective form of mitigation. HS2 Ltd will continue to hold drop-in sessions in Curdworth and neighbouring villages, but have been requested to give more notice and wider publicity to these events so that residents can be more effectively informed of developments. National Grid’s work for HS2 Ltd National Grid is modifying some overhead electricity lines, pylons and gas pipelines along the HS2 route to allow for the build and operation of the new railway. To achieve the required safety clearance above HS2 and its associated infrastructure, they’re moving and raising the height of some electricity pylons and overhead line. This is being done locally in several places to the: • South of Hams Hall substation near Coleshill, Warwickshire to junction 6 of the M42, near the NEC, Solihull – 14 pylons and sections of OHL are being removed, and 18 new pylons being built. • North of Hams Hall substation to near Mile Oak, west of Fazeley, Staffordshire – two pylons and sections of OHL are being removed, and two new pylons being built. The Southern work began in September 2018 and the Northern phase began in January 2019. Activity will continue for the rest of 2019. 4 Current activity: • Access works • New pylon foundation work • Pylon assembly and erection • Foundations • Scaffold assembly • Ecologist presence to monitor nesting birds/vegetation clearance Upcoming activity: • Pylon assembly and erection • Scaffold netting • Access works – including trackway and machine site set up • Ecologist presence to monitor nesting birds/vegetation clearance • Wiring new cables between pylons • Pylon painting • Outages (won’t impact electricity supplies): North = May-July 2019 South = July-September 2019 • Pylon removal (October time) and reinstatement activities M42 motorway and Despacering the canal scaffolding overhead line wire 5 To advertise in next months edition contact us at [email protected] Community Engagement Evening Curdworth had its first Community Engagement Evening in July with representatives from local services attending to give information to local residents.

  • APPENDIX B: LOCAL CONTEXT B.1. the Borough Is
    APPENDIX B – THE LOCAL CONTEXT - HEALTH, WELL-BEING AND LEISURE STRATEGY, GREEN SPACE STRATEGY, PLAYING PITCH STRATEGY, LEISURE FACILITIES STRATEGY NORTH WARWICKSHIRE BOROUGH COUNCIL APPENDIX B: LOCAL CONTEXT BACKGROUND B.1. The Borough is the Northernmost district in the county of Warwickshire. It has several large urban settlements on its doorstep, with the Borough lying between Birmingham, Solihull, Tamworth, Coventry, Nuneaton and Hinckley, all of which are growing areas. B.2. North Warwickshire itself is overwhelmingly rural in nature with approximately two thirds of its area designated as Green Belt. The population of the Borough is 62,124 (2011 Census), most of which is centred in the three main towns in the Borough: Atherstone, Coleshill and Polesworth. The rest of the population is dispersed throughout a number of smaller rural settlements. The dispersed nature of the Borough has particular implications for the provision of, and access to, services and facilities, particularly as public transport in limited, and not everyone has access to private transport. The population is predicted to grow from 62,700 in 2017, to 83,561 by 2031. (The projected growth in housing development of 5,280, plus 3,790 equates to 9,070 new homes by 2031. Assuming a minimum of 2.3 persons per household, this potentially equates to 20,861 new people in the Borough, who will need community facilities and services) B.3. Settlements range in size from Atherstone and Mancetter, with a population of 10,000 to small hamlets. Atherstone with Mancetter, Coleshill and Polesworth are the three market towns and are important to the health of the surrounding rural economy as they provide many services and facilities to the surrounding areas.
