  • Part 1 Appraisal Summary Table
    Transport Scotland Strategic Transport Projects Review Report 3 Generation, Sifting and Appraisal of Interventions Annex 1 Initial Appraisal Intervention 135: New Rail Line between Wemyss Bay and Largs Estimated total Public Sector Funding Requirement: Capital Costs/grant £100m - £500m - - - - - - 0 + ++ +++ Summary Impact Improve Journey Times and Connections on Key Strategic Reduce Emissions Outcomes Improve Quality, Accessibility and Affordability (Judgement based on available information against a 7pt. scale.) Intervention Description: Construction of a new direct rail link between Wemyss Bay and Largs. Summary: Rationale for Not Progressing The benefits of this intervention, at a strategic level, are considered to be relatively small as this only provides a small increase in capacity. Alternative rail-based interventions are more likely to contribute to the objective of increasing capacity and reducing journey times between Glasgow and Inverclyde/Ayrshire and would represent a better solution in terms of value for money. Transport Scotland Strategic Transport Projects Review Report 3 Generation, Sifting and Appraisal of Interventions Annex 1 Table C135.1.1 STPR Objectives STPR Objectives STPR Objective 1: 1: Positive - The construction of new direct rail link between Wemyss Bay and Largs would facilitate more efficient use of the railway network through Inverclyde and Ayrshire, by permitting two trains per hour to run from To Increase capacity and reduce journey times by public transport Glasgow to Largs and Ardrossan via Wemyss Bay. This would help to increase capacity and reduce journey between Glasgow and Inverclyde. times by public transport. STPR Objective 2: 2: Neutral – A direct rail link between Wemyss Bay and Largs would not have any significant impact on facilitating freight access to Greenock port.

  • Non-Technical Summary
    Halkshill and Blair Park Environmental Statement (Version 3) June 2016 NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY 1. INTRODUCTION The Non-Technical Summary presents an overview from the Halkshill and Blair Park Environmental Statement 2016. This Environmental Statement (ES) covers the potential impacts arising from a proposal to establish productive mixed woodland over a net area of circa 1400 ha on Halkshill and Blair Park Farms, North Ayrshire. The land has historically been used for extensive sheep grazing. The overall objective of the Environmental Statement is to: Identify the main, or significant, environmental issues relating to the proposed woodland development. Identify the nature and scale of the environmental effects that are likely to result from the establishment of mixed woodland. Identify areas where adverse impacts are minimised and positive impacts maximised. Significant impacts likely to occur as a result of implementation of the woodland planting proposal are summarised in Tables at the end of this document. 2. SITE CONTEXT Halkshill and Blair Park are two large and adjacent upland livestock farms extending to 1,396.8 ha in total. Halkshill is located immediately to the east of Largs in North Ayrshire and extends to the east along the Greeto and Gogo Waters. Blair Park is located to the south of Halkshill and north of the A760 Largs to Kilbirnie Road, and extends northwards to the southern boundary of Halkshill. Page 1 of 38 Halkshill and Blair Park Environmental Statement (Version 3) June 2016 Halkshill and Blair Park falls wholly within the Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park. This covers an upland area extending from Greenock in the north to Ardrossan in the south, an area of 281 square km and is the largest of Scotland’s three Regional Parks.
