  • POP022 Topic Paper: Transportation
    POP022 Belfast LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2020-2035 Transportation Topic Paper December 2016 Executive Summary Context A good transportation system helps people get to where they need to go quickly and easily and makes our towns and cities better places to live. In Northern Ireland, there is a history of heavy reliance on the private car as a means of travel. However, in recent years Belfast has witnessed many improvements in the city’s transportation system, in terms of roads, public transport and walking and cycling. As Belfast continues to grow and modernise, continued developments and major enhancements to our transport infrastructure are still required. The need to integrate transportation and land use to maximise development around quality sustainable transport networks is an essential element of the local development plan. The responsibility for transport policies and initiatives lies with the Department for Infrastructure (DfI) (formerly Department for Regional Development (DRD)). During the plan-making process the Council will be required to work closely with DfI to incorporate transport policy and initiatives into the Plan. The Local Development Plan (LDP) will need to be consistent with the objectives of the Regional Development Strategy (RDS) 2035 and relevant Transport Plans. Regional guidance outlines the need to deliver a balanced approach to transport infrastructure, support the growth of the economy, enhance quality of life for all and reduce the environmental impact of transport.

A comparative case-study on the influence of the peace lines on the sense of place and identity of residents in West-Belfast Marlies Veerbeek s4222407 Supervised by Margiet Goos Human Geography, Planning and Environmental studies School of Management Radboud University Nijmegen July 2016 Total number of words: 28947 ii I. Preface I am proud to present my bachelor thesis on the influence of the peace lines on the sense of place and identity in West-Belfast. With this thesis, my bachelor Human Geography, Planning and Environmental studies at the Radboud University Nijmegen comes to an end. It was in this bachelor that I got to know Belfast from a human geographical perspective. Working on an assignment regarding Belfast triggered a fascination within me. This fascination was the reason why I decided to complete an in-depth case study research on this extraordinary city. Conducting the fieldwork in Belfast by myself was an amazing experience. Going to an unknown city by myself to interview people on a sensitive matter made me both excited and nervous. Luckily, all went well and I had a wonderful experience in Belfast. Getting to know a city from literature and then actually being in the research field has been most exciting. I would not have been able to finish this bachelor thesis by myself.

The views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the Council. CENTRE FOR DEMOCRACY AND PEACE BUILDING 03 FOREWORD I want to say a sincere word of thanks to Dr Francis Teeney and Professor John Brewer for the substantial and conscientious work that they have done in producing this evaluation and review of the Music Unite project. They correctly picked up the initial anxieties of those who participated in the project, especially the members of the Shankill Road Defenders Band, and these anxieties were shared by those of us who were considering the project at the start. We wanted to find ways of addressing the alienation of young people, especially young men in the working-class loyalist community, but finding ways to engage them in many of the usual work and educational projects proved a challenge. I have long been of the view that the Arts, especially music, have a key role to play in processes of healing and I introduced Music Therapy to the Centre for Psychotherapy that I established for the NHS in Belfast many years ago.
