Utility tunnel for heating pipes between Rigshospitalet and Amagerværket in Copenhagen,Denmark Tunnel on the Taipei Metro inTaiwan Southern portal of the 421 m long (1,381 ft) Chirk canal tunnel A tunnel is an underground or underwater passageway, dug through the surrounding soil/earth/rock and enclosed except for entrance and exit, commonly at each end. A pipeline is not a tunnel, though some recent tunnels have used immersed tube construction techniques rather than traditional tunnel boring methods. A tunnel may be for foot or vehicular road traffic, for rail traffic, or for a canal. The central portions of a rapid transit network are usually in tunnel. Some tunnels are aqueducts to supply water for consumption or for hydroelectric stations or are sewers. Utility tunnels are used for routing steam, chilled water, electrical power or telecommunication cables, as well as connecting buildings for convenient passage of people and equipment. Secret tunnels are built for military purposes, or by civilians for smuggling of weapons, contraband, or people. Special tunnels, such aswildlife crossings, are built to allow wildlife to cross human-made barriers safely.

  • Green Transport Plan
    1 | P a g e With thanks to all the authors and main contributors to this work. Dr Caroline Lucas Caroline was the first Green MP elected, wining the seat of Brighton Pavilion in East Sussex. She is contesting her seat at the May general election, and while she is not in the Northwest, she has none the less pushed transport to the top of the political agenda with her Private Members Bill on rail, which calls for the railways to be put back into public hands. And for this we in the Northwest party want to thank her. Gina Dowding Gina is a Green County Councillor in Lancashire and a member for over 20 years. A graduate of Nottingham Trent University, she has been fighting for a better deal for Lancashire. Alan Francis Alan, who helped draft this document, has severed as the National Transport Speaker for the Green Party of England and is the Green candidate for the Buckingham constituency in the May General Election. He was chair of the party’s National Executive Committee for two years and has also been chair on both Milton Keynes Transport Partnership and Milton Keynes Rail Users Group, campaigning for the East West Rail Link, which will put Winslow back on the rail network. He is committed bringing the railways back into public ownership as well as starving to improve bus and rail services and cut fares across the whole country. Dr Daniel Gordon Daniel, a specialist on the politics of transport, is a Senior Lecturer in European History at Edge Hill University and a graduate of both Oxford & Sussex University.

    Liverpool’s Lost Railway Heritage Angela Connelly and Michael Hebbert MARC Discussion Paper March 2011 Manchester Architecture Research Centre, University of Manchester http://www.sed.manchester.ac.uk/research/marc/ ISBN: 978-1-907120-99-2 2 Angela Connelly is a Research Assistant and Associate of MARC [email protected] Michael Hebbert is Professor of Town Planning, University of Manchester [email protected] © Manchester Architecture Research Centre (MARC) 3 Background This discussion paper is the result of a short research project undertaken by MARC in February 2011. Liverpool’s lost railway heritage had come up in one of our regular trawls amongst local governments and agencies in North West England for live topics suitable for project work or disser- tations. John Hinchliffe, World Heritage Officer of Liverpool City Council, spoke of neglected pre- 1850 railway heritage, some of it still unlisted, including tunnels that lead up from the north and south docks to Edge Hill on the escarpment behind the city centre. He asked if we could provide a description and assessment of this extraordinary heritage, and a summary of the views of the prin- cipal stakeholders. The topic was fascinating but beyond the scope of a student project or dissertation. Happily, an experienced MARC researcher had a month on her hands between submitting her PhD thesis and undergoing her oral examination. Angela Connelly’s PhD, funded by the Arts and Humanities Re- search Council in collaboration with the Methodist Church, is a study of the design and use of Meth- odist Central Halls, involving archival work, interviews, and architectural documentation in six cities - including Liverpool.

  • 9 Liverpool Historic Character - Analysis
    9 Liverpool Historic Character - Analysis 9.1 Field System Broad Type About 2.4% (approximately 269.5 ha) of the area of Liverpool has been classified as Field System. Extant field systems can be founding three peripheral areas in Liverpool - in the extreme northeast, the centre and extreme south of the district. Figure 17 Current (2003) Field Systems Sub Type in Liverpool (© Crown Copyright and database right 2003. All rights reserved. Ordnance Survey Licence number 100019088. English Heritage).

Further more detailed research would be required to define field types or possible origins. It must be noted that periods of origin assigned to areas of fields during the course of the MHCP are based on intuition and the interpretation of enclosure patterns shown on 20th century and later mapping and do not constitute a detailed or definitive study. The current agricultural landscape is a product of an often complex evolution. In the 19th century in particular large areas of the landscape were remodelled, fields were enlarged and boundaries straightened. However, as a general rule: • The smaller and more irregular the field, the more likely that it has medieval or post-medieval origins (as piecemeal enclosure). • Conversely, the larger and more regular the field, the likelihood is that it is of more recent origin (as surveyed enclosure).
