It connects trading nations across the world and helps the UK to benefit from the global economy. In 2007, we handled more cargo than ever before. In 2008, the Port broke another record with almost one million cruise passengers passing through the Port. It is, therefore, no surprise that the Port is recognised as one of very few UK international gateways whose commercial growth is critical to regional and national economic success. Doug Morrison Port Director, ABP Southampton Success for the Port is also success for Southampton and the community in the surrounding region. It is estimated that the Port supports around 10% of the City’s workforce directly and indirectly. We are also at the heart of the Solent maritime sector which is estimated to support up to economic conditions of 2009 in our forecasting as well as 77,000 jobs and be worth a massive £5.5 billion. identifying opportunities for the Port to contribute to a sustainable, low carbon economy. Our predecessors made far-sighted decisions to grow, consolidate and expand the Port. At the turn of the 20th When preparing the plan we have borne in mind three century they extended the Eastern Docks; in the 1920s and essentials: 30s they planned and built the Western Docks, and in the • the need to continue to attract investment and create 1960s they built one of the UK’s first container terminals. jobs; • the need to promote environmental and economic These are just a few of the world-class advances that have sustainability; and helped to ensure that in the decades that have followed, Southampton has been able to respond to trends in • the need to support the community that depends on us. shipping and trade. The decisions made all those years ago are recognisably the foundation of the Port’s contemporary Shared vision and commitment have made the Port of success. Southampton the world class-port it is today. I hope that our master plan can renew and extend that vision and For some years, ABP has been following the same commitment, to ensure that the Port remains Britain’s approach - long-term investment to secure the Port’s gateway to the world, and our gateway to a sustainable future. We intend to continue doing so. In 2008 alone we and prosperous future. invested £61 million in Southampton, including £19 million on a brand new fourth cruise terminal. Thank you for your support. To make sure that Southampton maintains and builds on its recent success, we now need to set out a vision of the future for the Port and work together with the community of which we are part, and with government at all levels, to achieve it. Doug Morrison Port Director The master plan sets out what we consider needs to be ABP Southampton done in the interests of the Port and the community it serves, over the period 2009-2030. Our vision has been subjected to an extensive consultation exercise, the results of which are reflected where appropriate in the master plan.

Conclusions 39 Appendix 1 41 2 Smart Growth UK __________________________________________________________________________ Smart Growth UK is an informal coalition of organisations and individuals who want to promote the Smart Growth approach to planning, transportation and communities. Smart Growth is an international movement dedicated to more sustainable approaches to these issues. In the UK it is based around a set of principles agreed by the organisations that support the Smart Growth UK coalition in 2013:- Urban areas work best when they are compact, with densities appropriate to local circumstances but generally significantly higher than low-density suburbia and avoiding high-rise. In addition to higher density, layouts are needed that prioritize walking, cycling and public transport so that they become the norm. We need to reduce our dependence on private motor vehicles by improving public transport, rail-based where possible, and concentrating development in urban areas. We should protect the countryside, farmland, natural beauty, open space, soil and biodiversity, avoiding urban sprawl and out-of-town development. We should protect and promote local distinctiveness and character and our heritage, respecting and making best use of historic buildings, street forms and settlement patterns.

I should first apologise for having moved the venue for this cruise to the Solent. Having promised a cruise in Zeeland, which would have been a new experience for the Corinthians, I found the risk of exposing skippers to significant fines from the customs authorities, particularly in Belgium, unacceptable. The “red diesel” argument rumbles on with no sign that it will be satisfactorily resolved any time soon. If you were in any doubt, the reason for the name, Solent Jubilee, is to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of the Accession of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
