Wear Local Transport Plan 3 Strategy 2011-21 Foreword by the Chair of the ITA Foreword by the Chair of the ITA "Just because our priority is to deal with the debt crisis this does not mean we neglect our central responsibility to provide Britain with transport that works effectively and efficiently and to increase transport capacity where it is most needed to meet long term increases in demand". Rt Hon Philip Hammond MP, Secretary of State for Transport, July 2010 In the second Local Transport Plan (LTP) for Tyne and Wear, covering the period between April 2006 and March 2011, we wrote that: “Delivering improved transport provision will be a major factor in achieving sustainable economic growth”. Achieving sustainable economic growth for the region is more important than ever, as we seek to recover from the recession and to meet our challenging targets for carbon reduction. This third Local Transport Plan sets out how transport can help to deliver our goals. It covers all modes of travel, from cars to cycles, from motorbikes to Metro, from buses and taxis to horse-riders, showing how we will deliver green growth that addresses the challenges of today and promises a better tomorrow. Councillor David Wood, Chair of the Tyne and Wear Our plans for the next ten years build Integrated Transport Authority (the New Tyne on a legacy of achievement during Crossing promoter) makes his address during a the last five years, during which the mid-river meeting of civic dignitaries in July 2010 six LTP partners, together with our colleagues and stakeholders in other public bodies and the private sector, have co-operated closely to introduce many improvements in our transport infrastructure.

  • Newcastle Great Park
    Newcastle Great Park Key details Name Newcastle Great Park Location Newcastle Number of dwellings More than 4,400 expected Date first homes sold 2002 Homes delivered to date Around 1,500 Percentage of affordable homes 6% (plus £1 million contribution for affordable homes off-site) Average house price £341,000 Road vehicle trips forecast 3,628 AM peak; 3,708 PM peak external trips (many of which relate to employment not residential dwellings) Walking distance to railway station 33 mins (Tyne & Wear Metro) Total land area 484 ha Background and context of development One of the largest housing developments in the north-east of England, Newcastle Great Park is a major urban extension to the north of Newcastle, Tyne and Wear. Gaining outline planning consent in 2000, it was able to meet the ‘very special circumstances’ required for green belt release, in an era when strong Brownfield First policies were in place. This may have been aided by an agreement that 1 initially linked development at NGP with brownfield development in inner areas of Newcastle, aiming for a ratio of two-thirds brownfield development to one-third greenfield. The site is large and contains a diverse range of housing types, plus many areas that are still in progress or yet to be developed. According to the 2000 outline consent, development within each of the constituent cells must be carried out according to a Development Site Strategy Statement approved by the council for that cell. The first sections to be built were Cells H and I to the east of the A1.

    EDITORIAL Another year has come and gone, and we trust that 1989 will be a happy and prosperous one for all our members. If our Society is to continue to flourish, however, it is essential that more members should play an active part in running its affairs. Ken Brown, our Secretary since 1983 (and acting Programme Organiser for the last year), is resigning at the Annual General Meeting in May, and Irene Blackburn, who is responsible for the Members' Interests and Second Time Around sections of the Journal, will be giving up her position as Research Editor later in the year. We are very grateful to them both for all the work they have done on our behalf. In addition to these two posts, we are still short of a Programme Organiser. If you know of anyone who might be willing to take on any of these jobs please let Ken Brown know as soon as possible - otherwise the Society may come to a grinding halt. One of the most important events of 1988 as far as the Society was concerned was the publication of the long-awaited Directory of Members' Interests. Its production entailed a great deal of hard work on the part of those responsible, and it also placed a severe strain on the Society's finances. In view of the fact that it was initially offered free to members (only the cost of postage and packing being charged), the demand for copies was disappointingly small. Copies are still available, and although now priced £2.75 each (post free to addresses in the U.K.), they are very good value.

  • BRI 51 1 Shorter-Contributions 307..387
    318 SHORTER CONTRIBUTIONS An Early Roman Fort at Thirkleby, North Yorkshire By MARTIN MILLETT and RICHARD BRICKSTOCK ABSTRACT This paper reports the discovery through aerial photography of a Roman fort at Thirkleby, near Thirsk in North Yorkshire. It appears to have two structural phases, and surface finds indicate that it dates from the Flavian period. The significance of its location on the intersection of routes north–south along the edge of the Vale of York and east–west connecting Malton and Aldborough is discussed in the context of Roman annexation of the North. Keywords: Thirkleby; Roman fort; Roman roads; Yorkshire INTRODUCTION The unusually dry conditions in northern England in the summer of 2018 produced a substantial crop of new sites discovered through aerial photography. By chance, the Google Earth satellite image coverage for parts of Yorkshire has been updated with a set of images taken on 1 July 2018, during the drought. Amongst the numerous sites revealed in this imagery – often in areas where crop-marks are rarely visible – is a previously unknown Roman fort (FIG.1).1 The site (SE 4718 7728) lies just to the west of the modern A19, on the southern side of the Thirkleby beck at its confluence with the Carr Dike stream, about 6 km south-east of Thirsk. It is situated on level ground at a height of about 32 m above sea level on the southern edge of the flood plain of the beck, which is clearly visible on the aerial images. A further narrow relict stream bed runs beside it to the south-east.
