Barrow-in-Furness Cycling and Walking Consultation Summary We are holding a consultation on proposals to improve the cycling and walking network in Barrow-in-Furness, in order to promote more active travel and to make everyone feel confident they can walk or cycle. Details of the proposed routes are included in this consultation document. We want you to provide feedback on these proposals so we can develop the best possible Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan for Barrow-in-Furness. Please take the time to get involved, read this consultation document and provide your feedback. Background Cumbria County Council and Barrow Borough Council are working together to deliver the shared ambition to increase cycling and walking in the Barrow-in-Furness area in line with the Government's 'Gear Change: A Bold Vision for Cycling and Walking' (July 2020) document. The Gear Change sets out a vision for travel revolution in England’s streets, towns and communities: “Because the potential benefits are huge: Increasing cycling and walking can help tackle some of the most challenging issues we face as a society - improving air quality, combatting climate change, improving health and wellbeing, addressing inequalities and tackling congestion on our roads. Bold action will help to create places we want to live and work - with better connected, healthier and more sustainable communities. It will help deliver clean growth, by supporting local businesses, as well as helping ensure prosperity can spread across the country and level up our nation”. A large proportion of residents within Barrow-in-Furness live and work within the town. Barrow-in-Furness already boasts a strong culture of cycling despite the lack of modern cycling infrastructure. The compact nature of the town and small travel to work area creates ideal conditions for cycling and walking, with most trips to work occurring within the urban area to a small number of major employers. This shows there is significant potential in Barrow-in-Furness for more journeys to be made by walking and cycling if the right conditions are put in place. The implementation of good quality cycling and walking infrastructure is key to getting more people to walk and cycle. Many of us recognise the challenges of climate change and the urgent need to act. We know that being active is good for us and more of us have been walking and cycling throughout the Covid-19 pandemic and we would like to encourage this to continue. When asked what would make people maintain this, safe walking and cycling routes were the number one priority. The value of improved walking and cycling infrastructure in supporting communities is recognised by partners and reflected within the Brilliant Barrow Town Investment Plan. As part of this partnership working we are developing a Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP) for Barrow-in Furness. This will identify a cycling and walking network and the improvements identified will make it easier for everyone, regardless of age or ability to feel confident that they can walk or cycle. The improvements identified in the LCWIP will be used to help to secure funding. Delivery of the improvements is subject to funding being secured. 3 Development and delivery of the Plan The Barrow-in-Furness LCWIP aims to support green growth through improving connectivity, both within Barrow and to Askam-in-Furness and Dalton-in-Furness. Suggested cycling and walking routes have been identified and a draft priority network is presented as part of this consultation. Some initial routes have been identified for phased delivery where funding is available. Delivery of the Barrow-in-Furness LCWIP is planned in the following phases: • Phase 1: Bridge Road and Michaelson Road (Funding secured through the Active Travel Fund). Delivery by Spring 2022. • Phase 2: Abbey Road, Roose Road and Town Centre Improvements (£4m funding investment identified as part of Barrow Town Deal Cycling and Walking Project with a Business Case required to release the funding). Delivery is expected to begin in 2023. • Phase 3: Delivery of other improvements identified as part of the Barrow-in-Furness Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (Subject to securing funding). • Phase 4: Delivery of leisure routes (Subject to securing funding). Having a clear plan for cycling and walking in Barrow-in-Furness will provide the best chance of securing funding for future phases. 4 Barrow-in-Furness Cycling and Walking Consultation Cycling Existing Cycle Network Existing Cycling Network This plan presents the existing cycle network in the ASKAM-IN-FURNESS Barrow-in-Furness LCWIP Study Area.

  • Paper for Wapug Autumn Meeting 15 November 2001 Barrow Uid Study
    Paper for WaPUG Autumn Meeting 15th November 2001 Barrow uID Study – Three for the Price of One Graham Squibbs B.Tech, C.Eng., MICE. Julian Barber M.Sc, B.Eng, C.Eng, MICE, MIWEM Modelling Team, Asset Management, Service Delivery, United Utilities Introduction This paper covers the work undertaken for the Barrow uID Study. This is part of the United Utilities overall AMP3 uID programme which requires the improvement of 914 uID’s by March 2005. The Barrow uID’s are programmed for resolution by March 2004. Brief description of the study area Barrow Location plan Barrow-in-Furness lies at the tip of the Furness peninsula in West Cumbria which is bounded by the Irish Sea on its south-west and west sides. Barrow Island was originally separated from the mainland by a narrow channel, which has been infilled by a string of docks. Walney Island lies 150m off shore to the west, separated from the mainland and Barrow Island by Walney Channel. There are designated bathing waters on the east and north-west coast of the Furness peninsula, and on the West Coast of Walney Island, and designated shellfish waters in Walney Channel. Combined sewer overflows discharge to the Poaka Beck/Mill Beck system which flows to the sea via Cavendish Dock (SSSI), whilst other overflows spill to Ormsgill Reservoir which has a recreational (non-contact) use. Total population is calculated as 67,400 based on census data. Overall the population of Barrow is projected to decrease within the next ten years. Wastewater System The study area is served by a combined sewer system with post 1960's development drained by separate systems.

  • Hawcoat Health Profile
    Hawcoat This resource gives an overview of the health profile for wards within Hawcoat. Inequalities in people’s experience of health still present significant challenges in Cumbria, with people in the most affluent areas living up to 20 years longer than those in more disadvantaged circumstances. These unfair and avoidable differences in health between social groups are what we mean by health inequalities. In Cumbria there are a number of areas of concern, including; Relatively large numbers of people living in housing that is in poor condition High levels of fuel poverty A low proportion of the workforce educated to degree level or higher Low employment levels amongst people with disabilities On average men in Cumbria lose 10 months of life, and women 4.5 months, directly attributable to alcohol 50-60 suicides each year. Ward profiles Administrative geographies – and particularly wards – have traditionally been used for collecting and publishing statistics. Wards are well-established and, unlike Electoral Divisions, they will not change. Ward profiles enable us to gain a deeper understanding or the differences in health status between areas. % of Electoral Division's Electoral Division Wards in Electoral Division Population that fall within the Ward Hawcoat Hawcoat 77.5 Newbarns 22.5 The below data, as well as insights you gain from talking with communities and through working with community groups, are invaluable in gaining an understanding of the health needs and priority in that community.

  • Housing Chapter Alteration 2006
    BOROUGH OF BARROW-IN-FURNESS LOCAL PLAN REVIEW 1996-2006 HOUSING CHAPTER ALTERATION 2006 BOROUGH OF BARROW-IN-FURNESS LOCAL PLAN REVIEW 1996-2006 HOUSING CHAPTER ALTERATION 2006 Adopted 2 June 2006 Director of Regeneration Barrow-in-Furness Borough Council Town Hall Duke Street Barrow in Furness Cumbria LA14 2LD Contact: Local Development Framework Officer (01229) 894249 Email: [email protected] FOREWORD The Borough of Barrow-in-Furness Local Plan Review (1996-2006) is a statutory document prepared by the Borough Council to set out its policies guiding the development and use of land for the period up to 2006. Adopted, together with the County’s Minerals and Waste Local Plan and the Cumbria and Lake District Joint Structure Plan and the Regional Spatial Strategy and Local Development Documents of the new Local Development Framework, these form the statutory Development Plan for the area. There are also national guidelines in relation to planning issues that the Local Plan must interpret into local policy. At the time the plan was being written, the Government were in the process of revising the national planning guidance in relation to housing, ‘Planning Policy Guidance Note 3’. To keep the plan up to date the Borough Council resolved to alter the Housing Chapter to bring it up to date with this guidance. As a result of the provisions of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, the Local Plan Review, and the Housing Chapter Alteration once adopted, will be saved for the period set out below, or until they are revoked or replaced by the documents in the Local Development Framework.

Site Overview: Walney Island is composed of glacial deposits overlaying a rock platform; cliffs along the open coast are cut into these glacial sand and gravels, which provide little resistance to erosion. The two shorelines of Walney Island experience very different exposure conditions; the west coast is exposed to the Irish Sea whilst, in contrast, the east coast is sheltered from wave action. At either end of the Island, large sand and shingle spits extend towards the Duddon Estuary to the north and Morecambe Bay to the south.
