The Red Plaques of Gibraltar
THE RED PLAQUES OF GIBRALTAR This document has been compiled by: Julia Harris Contact on: [email protected] Date completed: May 2014 THANKS TO: - Gail Francis-Tiron for her help when needed - Pepe Rosado for reading this and making his valued comments - Claire Montado for giving me some of the older photos to use - My parents for their gentle ‘reminders’ to get this finished and proof reading! INTRODUCTION: These cast iron red plaques were placed around Gibraltar between 1959 and 1975 in possibly the first attempt to present the rocks history to visitors and residents. They were the work of the Gibraltar Museum Committee which at the time was under the chairmanship of the Hon. Mrs Dorothy Ellicott O.B.E., J.P. (see appendix III). Modern information boards will perhaps replace them (see ‘Future’ section below), but I hope this will not happen. They are their own piece of Gibraltar’s history. When I first noticed and started taking photos of these red plaques I looked for a record of how many there were to find. After speaking to The Heritage Trust and Tourist Board I was told there was not an up to date, completed list. So, here is mine, consisting of 49 plaques, some in situ, some not. There could be more around the rock, or in storage, as there are details of up to 53 in a document attached, dated October 1977, (see Appendix I). From this list there are 43 that I have found and are on mine, another 10 I did not find (some I know have been removed from site with no details of where they are stored) and there are 4 that I found that are not on it.

Noise Mapping – European Noise Directive Consultation
NOISE MAPPING AND PUBLIC CONSULTATION UNDER THE EUROPEAN NOISE DIRECTIVE (END) The European Council Directive relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise is intended to provide a common approach across the European Union to avoid, prevent and reduce, on a prioritised basis, the harmful effects of exposure to environmental noise from transportation and industrial sources. This Directive commonly known as the European Noise Directive (END) was transposed into local law by the Environmental (Assessment and Management of Noise) Regulations 2006. It is a requirement of the Directive for Member States to produce strategic noise maps for the following:- 1) Agglomerations with more than 250000 inhabitants. 2) Major roads with more than 3000000 vehicle passages a year. 3) Major railways with more than 60000 train passages per year; and 4) Major airports with more than 50000 movements per year. Locally the Directive only applies to noise from major roads, and therefore this consultation is specifically on noise from major roads. Traffic flow studies have identified that seven major roads namely, Queensway, Winston Churchill Avenue, Devils Tower Road, Line Wall Road, Europa Road, Glacis Road and Rosia Road each exceed 3000000 vehicles passage a year. Strategic noise maps for these roads have already been produced. These give details of the daytime and nighttime noise levels along these roads. These maps are used to assess the number of people potentially annoyed and sleep disturbed and form the basis for the preparation of an Action Plan to manage noise issues from traffic on these roads. What are noise maps? Noise maps are maps designed for the assessment of noise exposure in a given area or for overall predications of noise for such an area.

Noise Action Plan Follows on from the First Environmental Noise Action Plan for Gibraltar’S Major Roads (Ref: GI Mroad, January 2009)
GOVERNMENT OF GIBRALTAR Ministry for the Environment In conjunction with: Environmental Agency 37 Town Range Gibraltar 1 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of Action Plan. The objective of this Plan is to:- (a) prevent and reduce environmental noise where necessary and particularly where exposure levels may result in harmful effects on human health; and (b) Conserve environmental noise quality where this is already good. This Plan addresses noise arising from Gibraltar’s major roads where annual vehicle passages exceed three million. Strategic noise maps for Gibraltar’s major roads have been made and may be viewed at http://www.environmental-agency.gi Action Plans are based on the results of noise mapping. They will be reviewed and revised if necessary by the Competent Authority at least every five years after the date of their approval. This noise action plan follows on from the first environmental noise action plan for Gibraltar’s major roads (ref: GI_MRoad, January 2009). The content and actions included in this Plan cover the period 2013-2018. The Plan identifies priority areas for noise management along with proposals, actions and suggested measures for treating these. 1.2 The Legal Context 1.2.1 European Law 2 Council Directive 2002/49/EC relates to the Assessment and Management of Environmental noise and is more commonly known as the Environmental Noise Directive (END). This Directive came into force in July 2002. The END relates to noise from road, rail and air traffic as well as noise in agglomerations. It focuses on the impact of noise on individuals and complements other EU legislation, which set standards for noise emissions from specific sources.

I truly believe that making these important changes to the way we move around the Rock are the future if we want to safeguard the environment, encourage a healthier lifestyle and enjoy the benefits of greater traffic flow. Work in this area started some time ago when Gibraltar introduced the free bus service to encourage users to leave their own vehicles at home, thereby decongesting our roads and reducing the effects of pollution. I am happy to see there has been a steady increase in users of this service. We will continue this work with the imminent introduction of Redibikes, our bicycle hire scheme, giving users another option of sustainable transport that provides added health benefits. The Government is determined to reduce the impact of transport operations on the environment. With this in mind, we will move towards procuring more electric and hybrid vehicles for Government departments, where possible.
