Intercity Express (i.e. to the east of Cardiff) has two stations with four platforms (in Programme (IEP) services will be introduced between Swansea, place of three previously) at each to accommodate traffic at greater Cardiff and London, using 9-car electric trains and 5-car bi-mode levels of performance, as well as handling recent growth in main line trains. Journey times from Swansea and Cardiff to London will be 15 passenger volumes. On the two tracked section (to the west of minutes quicker, and IEP will also provide additional capacity for Cardiff) capacity is shared between long distance high speed passengers due to increased seating accommodation. (LDHS) passenger services to Swansea (calling only at Bridgend, Port Talbot Parkway and Neath) and regional and local services which serve a considerable number of local stations, in two groups, as well as freight. Services from Cardiff to Maesteg call at Pontyclun, Llanharan and Pencoed, between Cardiff and Bridgend. The minor stations west of Bridgend (Pyle, Baglan, Briton Ferry, Skewen and Llansamlet) are served by two-hourly stopping trains from Cardiff to Swansea, known as Swanline services. The Manchester to Carmarthen/Milford Haven regional services normally only call at the principal stations between Cardiff and Swansea. With the exception of Bridgend all intermediate stations west of Cardiff have two platforms. At Bridgend, the bay platform at the east end of the station is provided specifically to handle turnround of the South Wales Valleys services, independently of the main line.

  • Inquiry Into Ports in Wales Introduction I Am Jim O
    Response to Welsh Affairs Committee- Inquiry into Ports in Wales Introduction I am Jim O’Toole, Managing Director of The Port of Mostyn Ltd in Flintshire. I am a Deputy Lieutenant to the Clwyd Lieutenancy and a past Chairman of the North Wales CBI which I represented on the North Wales Economic Forum. I am also a member of the Bank of England Advisory Panel for North Wales, and also represent Welsh ports and industrial interests on the Dee estuary relating to the Water Framework Directive. I have more than 50 years experience in the shipping and ports industries. Regulatory Regime Ports is a reserved matter and current U.K. policy is contained in the document “Modern Ports” – a U.K. Policy – Nov. 2000. The Welsh Assembly Government ‘s parallel policies on ports are contained mainly in two policy documents: “The Wales Freight Strategy” - May 2008 and “Wales Transport Strategy” - April 2008. Neither of the Welsh documents contain what could be regarded as firm policies for Welsh port development, indeed the Transport Strategy document makes no more than a passing reference to ports and sea transport. The Wales Freight Strategy document provides an overview of the Welsh ports sector and contains 10 policy statements. However, scrutiny of the policy statements shows they are little more than intentions to “continue to review” and to “continue to monitor” various strategies for potential port development. I am therefore not convinced that the Welsh Assembly Government fully appreciates the importance of ports to the Welsh economy, hence its lack of firm policies which the industry can rely upon when considering development plans.

  • 13 Socio-Economics and Tourism
    Visual Impact Provision (VIP) Snowdonia Project, Environmental Appraisal Volume 1 13 SOCIO-ECONOMICS AND TOURISM 13.1 Introduction 13.1.1 This chapter of the Environmental Appraisal assesses the potential effects on socio-economic and tourism receptors associated with the construction, operation and decommissioning phases of the Visual Impact Provision (VIP), Snowdonia Project (hereafter referred to as the Proposed Project). 13.1.2 The potential effects considered in this appraisal are summarised under five subtopics, as follows: • Tourism: potential effects on tourism attractions and tourism hubs and the wider tourism sector (including the Snowdonia National Park), such as changes in access and/or amenity1. • Recreation: potential effects on recreational receptors such as changes in access and/or amenity. Recreational receptors include public rights of way (PRoW), cycle routes, long distance walking routes (LDWR), open access land, nature reserves and marine-related leisure activities. • Community amenity: potential amenity effects2 on community settlements and residents. • Employment: an overview of the potential direct and indirect employment generation on a local and regional basis. • Supply chain: expenditure within the local and national supply chain. 13.1.3 In the context of this appraisal, ‘amenity’ is the term used to describe the character or attractiveness of an area. When two or more environmental effects are experienced by the same receptors (e.g. a cycling route), amenity can be affected, with the potential to deter users (e.g. cyclists). The following environmental effects are considered in the amenity appraisal: landscape and visual effects; traffic and transport effects; and noise and vibration effects. Due to these important interactions between environmental effects and socio-economic and tourism receptors, it is recommended that this chapter is read in conjunction with Chapter 6 (Landscape and Visual), Chapter 12 (Traffic and Transport) and Chapter 14 (Noise and Vibration).
