  • Draft River Usk Strategy SPG January 2009
    CONTENTS Introduction 1 The River – Context 2 River Usk – Historical Context 5 Policy Context 7 Development Context 11 Managing the River Usk 14 Ecological Constraints 17 Archaeology 21 Navigation & Mooring Opportunities 23 Flood Risk 26 Riverside Footpath/Cyclepath 31 Tourism Opportunities 39 Summary of Recommendations 44 Geographical Summaries 46 M4 to Authority Boundary 47 M4 to Town Bridge 48 Town Bridge to Transporter Bridge 49 Transporter Bridge Down to Mouth of River Usk 50 Newport City Council Draft River Usk Strategy 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. The River Usk is a dominant landscape feature within the County Borough of Newport and has played an integral part in the development of the city. The transportation of coal and iron and other dock related industries placed the Usk at the centre of Newport’s growth and the focus of activity for Newport’s population. With the decline of such industries also came the decline in the visual appearance of the land along the River and its function in Newport’s vitality. The Council is keen, however, to regain the River’s prominence and sense of place in Newport’s environment, and has placed the Usk at the heart of large scale regeneration proposals for Newport. Scope of Strategy 1.2. This document attempts to highlight the current situation with the River, taking into account historical information and studies, and identify key recommendations for the many issues influencing the River’s future. These cover a mixture of management issues as well as potential development opportunities. Many of the key recommendations require further work to be carried out by other statutory organisations and as such this Strategy represents a starting point in co-ordinating the different functions of the River.

  • Newport Ultra a Complete Loop of Our Great City, Avoiding Built-Up Areas
    Newport Ultra A complete loop of our great city, avoiding built-up areas and following off-road trails as much as possible. The trail could easily be split in two using the Newport to Caerleon cycle route. Distance: 47 miles (76 km) Start/Finish: Newport Transporter Bridge Maps: OS Explorer 152 Newport & Pontypool, OS Explorer OL14 Wye Valley & Forest of Dean, and OS Explorer 154 Bristol West & Portishead. On-line interactive map available here. Facilities: The route passes a number of pubs, shops, cafes and other facilities; these have been highlighted in the route directions. Note: Paths may be muddy in winter and overgrown in summer (a pair of secateurs may be useful). Take care around livestock. As far as the Lighthouse Inn at St Brides, the route of the Newport Ultra follows the waymarked Wales Coast Path. 1 From the western end of the transporter bridge (by the visitor centre), cross Usk Way at the traffic lights towards the West of England Tavern. Turn left along the pavement and join a residential road past the Waterloo Hotel. Cross Alexandra Road towards Fanny’s Rest Stop and join a minor road to the left of the cafe running parallel to the main road. As the road curves right, join a shared pavement and cycle path on the left. Take the next road on the left, Docks Way. Cross to the right- hand pavement at traffic lights and follow the road through a busy retail estate. Keep straight ahead at a roundabout (below a railway bridge) and cross more access roads leading to retail units.
