The four-party executive finally agreed in October what it would substantively do after 30 months of high- (or, perhaps, low-) political manoeuvring between the ethno- nationalist protagonists. Here, at last, was a draft Programme for Government. One, indeed, with a confidence-building message of ‘making a difference’; one, too, with some ‘joined-up’ sophistication and the capacity thus to cement the partisan ministerial fiefdoms. Here, also, was a draft budget, for the first time reflecting regional priorities. Meanwhile, there was patient work in the assembly—if criticism of its lack of transparency—and the Civic Forum met. But a poll showed confidence in the agreement falling—sharply amongst Catholics, to rock-bottom amongst Protestants. And the institutions of the agreement—their interdependence meaning shocks destabilise the whole baroque architecture—came under increasing strain. The failure of the policing commission to generate a consensual report led to a Police Bill both unionists and nationalists opposed. Ethnic hurt mobilised (or, perhaps, exploited) in the Protestant community over the loss of the Royal Ulster Constabulary name (symbolising its 302 victims) struck a body-blow to David Trimble as Ulster Unionist Party leader and first minister, as the Democratic Unionists—undermining the executive by their absence—won a hitherto safe UUP seat. -

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.

History of Roads Service.Pub
1 A History of Roads Service 1973 - 2005 2 3 Foreword In late 2003 the Northern Ireland Branch of the County Surveyors’ Society proposed that Roads Service should commission a printed document describing the creation of the organi- sation and the first 30 years of its history. In addition, consideration was to be given to the establishment of a physical archive of important documents and other material. This proposal was accepted in late 2004 and this document is the result of the efforts of the authors which have included consultation and discussion with many members of staff, both past and present. We were asked to prepare a history that was formal rather than anecdo- tal. It was acknowledged that there would be some overlap with other publications and in par- ticular the Institution of Highways and Transportation Silver Jubilee document of 1989, the Roads Service Jubilee Reflections of 1998, and the Northern Ireland Motorway Achieve- ment of 2002. We considered it important to set the formation of the organisation in the context of the pro- posals to reshape local government which were developed between 1966 and 1970. There are of course proposals stemming from the recent Review of Public Administration which may have far reaching implications for the Roads Service as we have known it over the last 33 years. In a publication such as this, it is not possible to record all organisational changes or cap- ture references to all functions the organisation carried out. However we hope that readers will find something of interest in the document. Finally, this document would not have been possible without the generous assistance of many people, the names of whom we have acknowledged in Appendix E. -
