  • E0051 Ashby Canal Exec Summary.Indd
    Ashby Canal Restoration Snarestone to Measham BUSINESS PLAN SUMMARY Leicestershire County Council Community Services Department May 2006 The Ashby Canal Restoration Project This project is to restore the Ashby Canal from its current terminus at Snarestone northwards for a distance of 4.5 km to a new canal wharf at Measham (Map 1). The power to acquire the necessary land and to construct and maintain the canal was provided in October 2005 when the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs confirmed the Leicestershire County Council (Ashby de la Zouch Extension) Order made under the powers of the Transport and Works Act 1992. In making the Order the Secretary of State noted that the scheme is consistent with national, regional and local policies, would contribute significantly to regeneration objectives and would produce considerable economic, environmental and social benefits. History The Ashby Canal was completed in 1804 and connected Moira in north western Leicestershire to the Coventry Canal at Bedworth. It was used primarily to carry coal from the Ashby Woulds mines to markets in the Midlands and the South. The northern reaches of the canal were closed between 1944 and 1966 due to mining subsidence but in recent years the feasibility of restoration has been established and is strongly supported by local communities as a means of regeneration. The project will follow on from the successful restoration (1999 – 2005) of over 2km of the Ashby Canal between Donisthorpe and Moira at ‘The Heart of the National Forest’. This award-winning length hosts the annual Moira Canal Festival, and in conjunction Left: Moira Furnace before restoration The proposed canal - Measham Station (c1950) Below: Moira Furnace after restoration (May 2006) 2 3 with the adjacent Moira Furnace Museum and Conkers (the National Forest Discovery Centre) is a popular leisure destination throughout the year.

These are as follows: PART 1: Document Introduction and Main areas of Concern PART 2: Response to WDES Vol 2 – Community Areas LA03, LA04 and LA05 PART 3: Response to WDES Vol 2 – Route-wide Effects PART 4: Response to WDES Vol 3 – Off-route Effects PART 5: Appendices For any enquires about this response, please contact: [email protected] 1 | Page PART 1: Document Introduction and Maim areas of Concern i) This document and its appendices comprise Leicestershire County Council’s (the Council’s) response to the Working Draft Environmental Statement (WDES) for HS2 Phase 2b (the proposed scheme). We issue this response in the spirit of contributing to the processes surrounding this vast infrastructure project, but must include the caveat that the Council can only respond to the material to hand and further intensive work with HS2 Ltd is required to fully understand the impacts for Leicestershire and the most appropriate mitigation. ii) The Council recognises that the WDES is a draft document. However, it is disappointing that even in draft; there is a distinct lack of information provided in sections of the WDES, especially regarding the proposed scheme’s constructional and operational impacts and in respect of its design. But, the Council have determined to use this as an opportunity to shape the design and mitigation across the County. Where clear mitigation is not yet defined, the Council will seek to secure assurances from HS2 Ltd that further work will be carried out to inform the preparation of the Hybrid Bill, including HS2 Ltd preparing an Interim Transport Assessment (including sensitivity testing), and during the Parliamentary processes.
