  • Foyle DAB Ltd
    Small-scale radio multiplex licence Application form – Part A (public) Name of applicant (i.e. the body corporate that will hold the licence): Foyle DAB Ltd Multiplex licence area being applied for (note this must be a small-scale multiplex area currently being advertised by Ofcom): DERRY Public contact details: Name: Richard Moore Email: [email protected] Address: 2 St Joseph’s Avenue, Derry/Londonderry, County Derry/Londonderry, BT48 6TH Publication date: 1 September 2020 Small-scale radio multiplex licence: application form (Part A): 2 Extent of proposed coverage area 2.1 Provide a summary, fully consistent with the more detailed information about transmission sites supplied separately in Part B, of the coverage area proposed to be achieved by your technical plan. This should include a description of the target area you are seeking to serve within the advertised licence area, and also any areas you are aiming to serve outside the advertised licence area for this small-scale radio multiplex service. (You may refer to your coverage prediction in the response you provide): Derry is the second largest city in Northern Ireland, characterised by its distinctively hilly topography. The River Foyle forms a deep valley as it flows through the city, which presents challenges for radio transmission whilst also explaining our choice of name for the multiplex. Derry Urban Area (DUA), includes the city and the neighbouring towns of Culmore, Newbuildings and Strathfoyle. On census day (27 March 2011) there were 81,902 people living in Derry Urban Area. This accounts for the 77.2% of the people in Ofcom’s ‘Derry/Londonderry’ Polygon area.

  • Title of Report: Strathfoyle Greenway Officer Presenting: Head of Environment Author: Greenways Development Officer 1 Purpose
    Title of Report: Officer Presenting: Strathfoyle Greenway Head of Environment Author: Greenways Development Officer 1 Purpose of Report/Recommendations 1.1 To update Members with regard to the current status of the Strathfoyle Greenway proposal. 2 Background 2.1 The Strathfoyle Greenway is a 2.7km extension of the Waterside Greenway, from Foyle Bridge to Stradowen Drive. It is on Council's capital list of projects, and is listed in the Strategic Growth Plan. It is the first project listed in the Strathfoyle and Maydown Cluster Village Plan, with the highest priority. 2.2 The project has full planning permission, secured in 2012 (A/2012/0430/F). 2.3 A Steering Group of elected representatives and community leaders meets regularly to support the development of the project. 3 Key Issues 3.1 The proposed Greenway runs parallel with the railway and passes through one area in Council control (Strathfoyle pitches and play area), three areas owned by public bodies (Gransha Estate, Oakgrove school and NIHE lands at Stradowen Drive) and one area in private ownership. 3.2 Council has previously approved the purchase of the public lands (July 2018) and this is progressing through legal services. Land and Property Services (LPS) have agreed a premium with the private landowner and a report has been prepared for Capital Review Group to seek funds for the acquisition of the final section of the Greenway. 3.3 The construction cost of the greenway is estimated at £2.68m+ VAT inclusive of capital costs, professional fees and OB. These costs are based on a Quantity Surveyor’s estimate from July 2018.
