Local Resident Impact; Traffic Assessment Is Insufficient
Address redacted Glasgow City Council / Glasgow Life PO Box 15175, Glasgow, G4 9LP Saturday, 4th July 2020 Dear Sir or Madam, Re. Planning application 20/01352/FUL I am writing to record my objection to the proposal, in its current form, for the Active Travel Management Plan in Pollok Country Park. Whilst I support - in principle - the stated objectives and many of the elements of the project to reduce the presence of cars within the centre of Pollok Country Park, and to prioritise active travel. Its core proposal to remove traffic from the core of the park is excellent. However it has significant shortcomings in the high-level response to the challenge in the project framing. It is missing key detail with regards its impact on local residents and active travel users in the immediate vicinity. The traffic analysis in particular takes an insufficiently wide scope, and does not explore relevant options or considerations. The plan therefore requires detailed reconsideration, with additional mitigations or rework, and also to take into account Coronavirus mitigations currently being put in place in the affected vicinity (Haggs Road), references below. Local resident impact; Traffic assessment is insufficient The Shawmoss/Haggs junction is poorly considered, with inadequate modelling of the wider contexts: ● The proposed no-right turn into Shawmoss Road (7.2.14, “Right from Haggs Road south to Shawmoss Road”, see also figure 7.3) significantly disregards the needs and impacts on residents in the Shawmoss, Herries Road, Crossmyloof vicinity. ● It risks causing car traffic to ignore road instructions; or to bypass the junction and cut against the current one-way in Herries Road; substantially increase traffic on minor road Whins Road; or an extensive diversion via St Andrews Drive+Herries Road, or via Crossmyloof. -

Executive Summary The City of Glasgow has a long tradition in the pursuit of a high quality built environment and public realm, continuing to the present day. This strategy represents the next steps in this tradition by setting out how open space should be planned, created, enhanced and managed in order to meet the priorities for Glasgow for the 21st century. This is not just an open space strategy. It is a cross‐cutting vision for delivering a high quality environment that supports economic vitality, improves the health of Glasgow’s residents, provides opportunities for low carbon movement, builds resilience to climate change, supports ecological networks and encourages community cohesion. This is because, when planned well, open space can provide multiple functions that deliver numerous social, economic and environmental benefits. Realising these benefits should be undertaken in a way that is tailored to the needs of the City. As such, this strategy examines the priorities Glasgow has set out and identifies six cross‐cutting strategic priority themes for how open space can contribute to meeting them. -

Old Mines and Mine Masters of the Monklands” British Mining No.45, NMRS, Pp.66-86
BRITISH MINING No.45 MEMOIRS 1992 Skillen, B.S. 1992 “Old Mines and Mine Masters of the Monklands” British Mining No.45, NMRS, pp.66-86. Published by the THE NORTHERN MINE RESEARCH SOCIETY SHEFFIELD U.K. © N.M.R.S. & The Author(s) 1992. ISSN 0309-2199 BRITISH MINING No.45 OLD MINES AND MINES MASTERS OF THE MONKLANDS Brian S. Skillen SYNOPSIS The Monklands lie east of Glasgow, across economically worthwhile coal measures, which have been worked to a great extent. Additionally to coal it proved possible to work a good local ironstone. Mushet’s blackband ironstone proved the resource on which the Monklands rose to prosperity in the 19th century. A pot pourri of minerals was there to be worked and their exploitation may be traced back to the 17th century. Estate feuding provides the first clue to the early coal working of the Monklands. In 1616, Muirhead of Brydanhill was in dispute with Newlands of Kip ps. Such was the animosity of feeling, that the latter turned up at the tiny coal working at Brydanhill and together with his men smashed up Muirhead’s pit head.1 It is likely that Muirhead’s mine had answered purely local needs and certainly if mining did continue it was on this ephemeral basis, at least until the mid 18th century. The reasons are easy to find, fragile local markets that offered no encouragement to invest in mining and a lack of communications that stopped any hope of export. In any case the western markets were then answered by the many small coal pits about the Glasgow district, including satellite workings such as Barrachnie on the western extremity of Old Monkland Parish. -
