  • Lent Term 2007
    CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY RAMBLING CLUB Lent Term 2007 Welcome back to the Rambling Club. Once again, we invite you to leave the city for a few hours this term, and enjoy the surrounding countryside with us. The pace of our walks is generally easy, as our main aim is to relax and appreciate the local scenery and villages, and we have tried to provide a mixture of walks of different lengths. We usually stop at a village pub en route, but you should bring a packed lunch and a drink anyway as occasionally a walk doesn’t pass a pub, or we find that a pub is closed. Strong boots and waterproof clothing are also recommended. Your only expense is the bus or train fare (given below), plus our £1 annual membership fee. There is no need to sign up in advance to join any of this term’s walks – just turn up at the time and place given. Our meeting points are: Bus/Coach: At the corner of Drummer Street and Emmanuel Street. Train: In the main hall of Cambridge Railway Station. Saturday 20th January: "Swanning around Swavesey" Swavesey Circular 9 miles Contact: Steven For the first walk of term we head to the village of Swavesey, situated close to the River Ouse about 10 miles north-west of Cambridge. From here we'll explore the lakes and waterways of the nearby Fen Drayton Nature Reserve before visiting the village of Fenstanton. After lunch we'll walk along part of the River Ouse on our way back towards Swavesey for the bus home.

  • Feasibility Study Into Public Transportation Options for Widening Access to the Ouse Washes - Final Report
    Feasibility Study into Public Transportation Options for Widening Access to the Ouse Washes - Final Report Peter J Bates Senior Partner pjb Associates January 2017 [email protected] Feasibility Study into Public Transportation Options for Widening Access to the Ouse Washes Executive Summary This project has aimed to be a catalyst to stimulate the development of new and better integrated public transport solutions for the Ouse Washes and the surrounding areas - that will specifically to encourage tourism opportunities. It has explored the feasibility and sustainability of various public transport options that could be developed by third party organisations and identified what options are most likely to be sustainable and where the risk involved is likely to be at low enough level for an option to be implemented. Although the study has focused upon options for utilising better integrated public transport – that create and encourage new tourism opportunities, it has had to take into account the existing and somewhat limited public transport options that currently serve the local population and the fact that the attractiveness of Ouse Washes Landscape tends to be spread out over a large area with few focal points that attract significant visitors. Therefore, the options suggested have focused on visitor attractions that don’t have any public transport option at all, at present. It has suggested ways for creating flexibility with new public transport options. The study has drawn upon the results of a survey of visitors who attended various events during OuseFest in August 2016. However, it is recognised that there were some limitations with this survey – as most people attending the events did tend to live locally, already had their own car and most people were over 55 years old which was not representative of the population as a whole.

  • An Investigation Into the Determining Factors of Zoo Visitor Attendances in UK Zoos
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by PubMed Central An Investigation into the Determining Factors of Zoo Visitor Attendances in UK Zoos Andrew William Whitworth1,2* 1 University of Glasgow; Institute of Biodiversity, Animal Health & Comparative Medicine; College of Medical, Veterinary & Life Sciences, Glasgow, United Kingdom, 2 The CREES Foundation, London, United Kingdom Abstract The debate as to which animals are most beneficial to keep in zoos in terms of financial and conservative value is readily disputed; however, demographic factors have also been shown to relate to visitor numbers on an international level. The main aims of this research were: (1) To observe the distribution and location of zoos across the UK, (2) to develop a way of calculating zoo popularity in terms of the species kept within a collection and (3) to investigate the factors related to visitor numbers regarding admission costs, popularity of the collection in terms of the species kept and local demographic factors. Zoo visitor numbers were positively correlated with generated popularity ratings for zoos based on the species kept within a collection and admission prices (Pearson correlation: n = 34, r = 0.268, P = 0.126 and n = 34, r = 20.430, P = 0.011). Animal collections are aggregated around large cities and tourist regions, particularly coastal areas. No relationship between demographic variables and visitor numbers was found (Pearson correlation: n = 34, r = 0.268, P = 0.126), which suggests that the popularity of a zoo’s collection relative to the types and numbers of species kept is more indicative of a collection’s visitor numbers than its surrounding demographic figures.
