  • UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021
    Round # 1 – UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021 GENERAL INFORMATION Newport is a vibrant, multi-cultural city steeped in a rich industrial heritage, where traditional industries sit alongside new electronics and financial service sectors. At the gateway of Wales, surrounded by stunning scenery and a growing international profile Newport may surprise you. Newport’s history dates back to a Celtic settlement 2000 years ago and the city's location at the mouth of the River Usk has attracted visitors for centuries. Caerleon, just a few miles from Newport, was also the site of a fortress of the 2nd (Augustan) Roman legion from the first century AD. The Normans settled in Newport and built a castle beside the river Usk in the 14th century, the remains of which you can see today. The discovery of the remains of a sea-going vessel in 2002 gives evidence of Newport as a centre of industry and trade in the medieval period. During the 19th century industrial revolution Newport expanded rapidly from a small seaport town to one of the most important places in the country for coal export and steel production and the town became known for its accessible modern docks. Newport is also home to the Newport Transporter Bridge, one of around 10 that remain is use throughout the world and one of only two operational transporter bridges in the UK. Global leaders in technology, manufacturing, distribution, financial services and public sector organisations are attracted to the city’s superb location. Over 2.69 million people visit the city annually and events are a key part of Newport having successfully delivered large global events including the Ryder Cup in 2010 and NATO summit in 2014.

  • Life Saving Scheme Launched Across Wales
    Welsh Assembly Government | Life saving scheme launched across ... Page 1 of 2 Life saving scheme launched across Wales A new scheme that will help save the lives of people who have suffered a heart attack will be launched today (December 19, 2006) in the Senedd at 3pm by the Welsh Ambulance Service and Welsh Assembly Government. The public access defibrillation scheme will mean defibrillators, which are vital life-saving machines for people who have suffered a heart attack, will be made available in a number of busy public places such as railway stations and shopping centres. More than 20 sites across Wales are taking part in the scheme thanks to £80,000 funding for equipment from the Welsh Assembly Government. Additional recurrent funding of £61,000 a year is also available to fund training delivered by the Welsh Ambulance Service to staff and volunteers on the provision of basic life support and use the defibrillators. Gary Humphries is just one of many people whose life was saved by such a scheme when he collapsed with a heart attack in Hawthorn Leisure Centre, Treforest. He said, “If it wasn’t for the quick response of trained staff and the fact that a defibrillator was available at the leisure centre, I wouldn’t be here today.” The scheme, which is supported by the British Heart Foundation, increases the survival rates of people who have suffered a heart attack and encourages people to develop life saving skill which can be used before an ambulance arrives. Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust Medical Director Dr Mick Colquhoun said, “Every second counts when you are trying to save someone’s life and the sooner defibrillation is performed the greater the chance of survival.

  • 1. Purpose of Having Integrated Transport
    Sian Phipps Enterprise and Business Committee National Assembly for Wales Cardiff Bay CF99 1NA email: [email protected] Response by 2nd November 2012 At the Conference on Integrated Transport today(20/09/12) in Cardiff Bay speaking to the representatives at the Assembly stand it was suggested I forward the response on integrated transport that I had recently sent to the Public Transport Users Committee. From Section 3 onwards the responses are based on the questions suggested by the PTUC Extract from Guidelines for views in Integrated Transport:- For the purpose of this study integrated transport is taken to mean consideration of the relationship of different parts of a whole journey experience particularly but not exclusively when such parts are undertaken by different modes of public transport. 1. Purpose of Having Integrated Transport 1.1. It is important to know what is the purpose or reason for wanting integrated transport in the first place. For example :- 1.1.1. Is it to maximise profits for the organisation running a transport operation? 1.1.2. Is it to maximise income / minimise the call on the Public Purse / Treasury? 1.1.3. Is it to maximise the modal shift away from using private cars? 1.1.4. Is it to benefit the wider economy or other social or environmental benefits? 1.1.5. Is it for other reasons? 1.1.6. If it is a combination then which takes precedence? 1.2. Only by having a clear view and understanding of the above issues will the reason(s) / answer(s) define what can and should be done.
