A9 A904 Improvement Project INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Falkirk context The team Falkirk Council’s £67 million Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) scheme is expected The TIF scheme is a significant new initiative brought forward by Falkirk Council, to bring in £413 million in private investment into the area, creating almost in partnership with the Scottish Government and Scottish Futures Trust and aims 6,000 jobs and hundreds of apprenticeships. Under TIF, Council’s can fund to boost the area’s economy. infrastructure improvements by borrowing against future business rates that are generated from new development. The 25 year plan covers 28 development sites Business rates, normally allocated to Scottish Government, are ring fenced to across Falkirk and Grangemouth. Under the plan, links from the M9 motorway to fund the TIF programme, so none of the £67 million investment comes from the the development sites will be improved and 400,000 sqms of commercial and Council’s budget. industrial space created. Falkirk Council is investing in improving infrastructure provisions for motorists, pedestrians and cyclists around the district. This is in line with 5 their strategy to encourage more people to travel by bike or on foot for everyday journeys as well as improving accessibility to the town centre and green networks. 18 21 17 19 8 14 20 15 7 32 31 WSP is a large multi-disciplinary engineering 1 consultancy, and lead designer for this exciting 16 25 project.

Westmains A9 A904 Improvement Project D ethos design + architecture GREEN CORRIDORS AND ACTIVE TRAVEL ROUTES Active travel Parks and open spaces are vital to the quality of the urban environment and the physical and mental health of its residents. They can also provide valuable wildlife habitat. They help to define a sense of place within settlements, contribute to their landscape structure and provide areas for recreation and physical exercise. Where linked into networks, parks and open spaces can be extremely valuable for active travel and can form corridors (green corridors) through which wildlife can migrate through the urban area. Green corridors, parks and open space are important places to be protected, cherished and enhanced. They take great effort to maintain, but give back so much to communities. Falkirk district is lucky to have some wonderful open spaces, from areas including the John Muir Way to magnificent parks like The Helix, dominated by the world-famous Kelpies. This project focuses on enhancing walking and cycling routes between Falkirk and Grangemouth, and improves links to Forth Valley College, The Helix and Falkirk Stadium and new developments.

This necessitated a review of the current layout of Westfield Roundabout and Etna crossing facilities to manage future use. Roundabout Some of the options considered are shown below and include improved M9 – Vehicles per hour facilities for pedestrians and cyclists. 3,800 (2019) West Mains With circa 36,000 monthly non-motorised user (NMU) visitors to Helix Roundabout Park, the bridge shall provide an important part of the works where safety Helix and connectivity are paramount. Park A9 – Vehicles per hour A904 – Vehicles per hour Access to the new College Campus, Falkirk Stadium, Helix Park and future 1,648 (2019) – spare capacity 2,240 (2019) – close to capacity development sites shall be by the bridge allowing for future growth and 1,912 (2022) (+16%) – spare capacity 2,350 (2022) (+5%) – at capacity providing a central hub for the green and active travel routes within 2,152 (2037) (+30%) – close to capacity 2,800 (2037) (+25%) – over capacity Falkirk and Grangemouth.

A number of possible layouts for connecting the four sites were explored, both around and across the junction, with connectivity for users and material requirements used as a marker of suitability. Selecting the layout Initial arrangements used four straight bridges to connect the four corners of the roundabout. These separate structure arrangements were not considered to be user-friendly, with the risk that at-grade crossing of the junction would continue. The initial layouts were developed to join the four separate structures, making the crossing more user-friendly. Arrangements across the roundabout were found to use considerably less material for an equivalent connectivity. Curved decks were introduced to the layout. Towers at each end of a linear main span allowed cables to be used also to support the approach spans.

  • Caithness and Sutherland Proposed Local Development Plan Committee Version November, 2015
    Caithness and Sutherland Proposed Local Development Plan Committee Version November, 2015 Proposed CaSPlan The Highland Council Foreword Foreword Foreword to be added after PDI committee meeting The Highland Council Proposed CaSPlan About this Proposed Plan About this Proposed Plan The Caithness and Sutherland Local Development Plan (CaSPlan) is the second of three new area local development plans that, along with the Highland-wide Local Development Plan (HwLDP) and Supplementary Guidance, will form the Highland Council’s Development Plan that guides future development in Highland. The Plan covers the area shown on the Strategy Map on page 3). CaSPlan focuses on where development should and should not occur in the Caithness and Sutherland area over the next 10-20 years. Along the north coast the Pilot Marine Spatial Plan for the Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters will also influence what happens in the area. This Proposed Plan is the third stage in the plan preparation process. It has been approved by the Council as its settled view on where and how growth should be delivered in Caithness and Sutherland. However, it is a consultation document which means you can tell us what you think about it. It will be of particular interest to people who live, work or invest in the Caithness and Sutherland area. In preparing this Proposed Plan, the Highland Council have held various consultations. These included the development of a North Highland Onshore Vision to support growth of the marine renewables sector, Charrettes in Wick and Thurso to prepare whole-town visions and a Call for Sites and Ideas, all followed by a Main Issues Report and Additional Sites and Issues consultation.

This note was developed following feedback from the public at Public Exhibitions, held on the 27 th and 28 th January 2016 and the Community Council meeting, held on 8 th February 2016. It therefore focusses on key sections within the engineering and environmental assessments to address issues raised. The DMRB Stage 2 Assessment for the Pass of Birnam to Tay Crossing section is anticipated to be complete in the coming months with an announcement on the Preferred Route Option expected in Autumn 2016. BACKGROUND A DMRB Stage 2 Assessment has been undertaken on the three current route options. A summary of the route options is given in Table 1. It should be noted that the route options follow the same horizontal alignment and differ only vertically in the vicinity of Dunkeld & Birnam Station and the proposed Dunkeld Junction. As a result, the summary of assessment has focussed on this section. Table 1: Current Route Options Route Key Features Option A • At existing

    SWS Significant Projects Ronnie: Comment. 1. My checker showed spelling and spacing issues. At start I corrected some then changed to showing them as [? Gap etc] or my understanding of the correct spelling [eg Jencks not Jenks]. It might be easier to download this copy to accept or reject changes. 2. Some Irish Job names showed as errors. My system should have all the correct names from other work I have done. Check or leave it until I get back from holiday. 3. I am happy with your choice of ‘significance’. 4. I have added names of key staff [where I know them] and highlighted where I think we should try to add names or at least indicate that there were others who should be acknowledged. Regards, Jim. 14 July 2014. This table attempts to record significant projects carried out by Scott Wilson in the operational areas which became the responsibility of Scott Wilson Scotland (comprising Scotland, North of England, Northern Ireland and Ireland). Prior to the formation of SWS, projects were carried out by the UK Partnership. There is no simple definition of a significant Project. Whilst large projects can easily fall into this category, I have also included projects which added to the geographic and technical expansion of the firm. I have also included projects which created a stream of commissions. In part, the data in itself provides a detailed history of the development of SWS over the years. The data has been taken from job number lists which were obtained from archive catalogues. This data appears very comprehensive from 1971 to 2001.
