    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).

Snowdonia was designated a National Park because of its natural beauty. The Park Authority is responsible for safeguarding and promoting enjoyment and understanding of the Park‟s special qualities. Today, the Park is under increasing pressure. Every year, because of its renown, millions of people come to enjoy Snowdonia‟s coast, hills, rivers, lakes, wildlife and its special cultural heritage. Remember, when you come to Snowdonia, support the local businesses, recycle your waste, and use public transport whenever possible. In this issue of Snowdonia we provide information on how to enjoy Snowdonia healthily and safely. We provide information about a circular walk in the Bala and Ardudwy areas, and an accessible path in Betws y Coed. You will also be given a snapshot of the Ffestiniog area, and read about the history and heritage of Blaenau Ffestiniog. In this issue we have information on how to care for wildlife, and become more familiar with Snowdonia by attending a course at Plas Tan y Bwlch.

  • DWYRYD ESTUARY and MORFA HARLECH Component Lcas (Snowdonia): Morfa Harlech; Vale of Ffestiniog; Morfa Dyffryn Component Lcas (Gwynedd): Porthmadog
    SEASCAPE CHARACTER AREA 21: DWYRYD ESTUARY AND MORFA HARLECH Component LCAs (Snowdonia): Morfa Harlech; Vale of Ffestiniog; Morfa Dyffryn Component LCAs (Gwynedd): Porthmadog Location and Context This SCA is located in the northern part of the west Snowdonia coast. It includes the Dwyryd estuary from its mouth near Porthmadog to its inland tidal limit at Tan-y-bwlch. It also includes Morfa Harlech on the southern shore of the estuary, and the towns of Harlech and Penrhyndeudraeth. To the north is SCA 20: Porthmadog and Glaslyn Estuary, to the west is SCA 19: Criccieth to Mochras, and to the south is SCA 22: Mochras to Fairbourne and Sarn Badrig. View across the Dwyryd Estuary from Ynys, showing intertidal habitats, the village of Portmeirion and the mountains of Snowdonia forming the backdrop. Image © Fiona Fyfe Summary Description Views of this SCA are dominated by the broad landform of the Dwyryd estuary, with its extensive salt marshes, sand, mud and dune system (Morfa Harlech). The estuary also contains distinctive ‘islands’ and ridges of higher ground on either side. Overlooking the estuary are the contrasting villages of Harlech (with its Medieval castle on the valley side), Portmeirion with its Italianate architecture, and the industrial village of Penrhyndeudraeth. Surrounding the estuary are the wooded hills of Snowdonia, which form a majestic backdrop to picturesque views from lower land. In the eastern part of SCA, the valley narrows as the river flows inland. Here, the Afon Dwyryd has been heavily modified flows between areas of improved grazing, with main roads on both sides of the valley floor.
