  • FORTH, CLYDE and UNION CANALS Notes on Multi-Use Access
    FORTH, CLYDE AND UNION CANALS Notes on multi-use access The Forth and Clyde Canal stretches 35 miles between Bowling, on the Clyde west of Glasgow, and the Forth estuary east of Falkirk, linking directly via the Union Canal to Edinburgh. Walkers and cyclists may now be a more common sight than the horses for whom the towpaths were originally created, and riding a horse alongside the canal may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but under the Land Reform (Scotland) Act, horse-riders enjoy equal access rights to other non-motorised access takers. Most of the former barriers along the towpath have been removed or modified to allow multi-use access, although there are a few places where the passable width is very narrow, or where steps have been installed to divert around obstructions in the line of the towpath may not be passable with a horse. These notes have been produced by British Horse Society Scotland to help identify location and brief details of features which may influence multi-use of the Forth and Clyde and Union Canals. The notes are intended to supplement information already available from other sources, including detailed route guides, http://www.scottishcanals.co.uk/our-canals/forth-- clyde-canal and other relevant websites. The background information for these notes was provided by volunteers who surveyed the route in 2014 as part of a multi-use long distance route audit funded by Scottish Natural Heritage. BHS will endeavour to update notes as and when notification of subsequent changes is received, but cannot guarantee accessibility or the accuracy of information provided.

  • CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM to the BOARD [Redactions Below Relate to Commercially Confidential Information] REGENERATION REPORT – JANUARY 2010
    INFORMATION & DECISION REPORT BWB 3392 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM TO THE BOARD [Redactions below relate to commercially confidential information] REGENERATION REPORT – JANUARY 2010 Report by Director of Regeneration 1. PURPOSE: 1.1 To update the Board on key regeneration activities across England and Wales 1.2 To seek Board approval to increase expenditure on Three Mills Lock project to £ [ ] (£ [ ] previously noted), to cover risk of additional costs being awarded against BW following Adjudication process. 2.0 NEW REGENERATION DIRECTORATE: 2.1 The new Regeneration Directorate is now fully operational. The transition of regeneration/external funding functions from the former Business Units into the four geographical teams has been a smooth process with project continuity and the need to maintain key external relationships being uppermost in our minds. 3.0 REGENERATION SECTOR COMMENTARY: 3.1 Regional Development Agencies: The future of the RDA’s continues to be debated with the Conservative’s seemingly backtracking on previous pledges to scrap them, in favour of a more flexible approach dependent on whether respective local authorities valued them or not. It is suggested that where LA’s might opt to remove a RDA, the agency would be replaced by a partnership of Councils around real economic regions. These Local Enterprise Partnerships would closely resemble the ‘Leeds City Region’ model although with a smaller number of councils – maybe seven to eight. The Labour Party has however reiterated its support for RDA’s stating recently that they would remain central to Govt plans for economic recovery. 3.2 Conservative Party Policy on Regeneration: The Tory green paper, which was expected to be published in the New Year, has been deferred.

  • Lee Valley Regional Park Landscape Character Assessment
    LCT C: Urban Valley Floor with Marshlands SPA, which provides a nationally important habitat for overwintering birds. Cultural Influences 4.64 The low-lying land of rich alluvial deposits supported a system of grazing, referred to as the Lammas system5 from the Anglo-Saxon period to the end of the C19th. Grazing rights on the marshes were extinguished by the early C20th and a substantial proportion of the marshlands, with the exception of Walthamstow Marshes, were then modified by industrial activities and landfill, including the dumping of bomb rubble after WW2. In the 1950 and 60s the construction of flood relief channels ended the periodic inundation of the marshlands. 4.65 Communication routes through the valley floor proliferated over the C20th, including pylons, roads and railway lines mounted on embankments, but residential and industrial development remains largely confined to the margins. 4.66 Public access and recreation now characterises much of the marshlands, with some areas managed as nature reserves. However substantial infrastructure, such as the railway lines and flood relief channels and adjacent industrial development, means access through and into the marshes from surrounding urban areas is often severed.
