    Local Resident Impact; Traffic Assessment Is Insufficient

    Address redacted Glasgow City Council / Glasgow Life PO Box 15175, Glasgow, G4 9LP Saturday, 4th July 2020 Dear Sir or Madam, Re. Planning application 20/01352/FUL I am writing to record my objection to the proposal, in its current form, for the Active Travel ​ ​ Management Plan in Pollok Country Park. Whilst I support - in principle - the stated objectives and many of the elements of the project to reduce the presence of cars within the centre of Pollok Country Park, and to prioritise active travel. Its core proposal to remove traffic from the core of the park is excellent. However it has significant shortcomings in the high-level response to the challenge in the project ​ ​ framing. It is missing key detail with regards its impact on local residents and active travel users in the immediate vicinity. The traffic analysis in particular takes an insufficiently wide scope, and does not explore relevant options or considerations. The plan therefore requires detailed reconsideration, with additional mitigations or rework, and ​ ​ ​ also to take into account Coronavirus mitigations currently being put in place in the affected vicinity (Haggs Road), references below. Local resident impact; Traffic assessment is insufficient The Shawmoss/Haggs junction is poorly considered, with inadequate modelling of the wider ​ contexts: ​ ● The proposed no-right turn into Shawmoss Road (7.2.14, “Right from Haggs Road south to Shawmoss Road”, see also figure 7.3) significantly disregards the needs and impacts on ​ residents in the Shawmoss, Herries Road, Crossmyloof vicinity. ● It risks causing car traffic to ignore road instructions; or to bypass the junction and cut against the current one-way in Herries Road; substantially increase traffic on minor road ​ Whins Road; or an extensive diversion via St Andrews Drive+Herries Road, or via ​ Crossmyloof.

Conference story on page 7. SHA Annual Family Conference at the Crown Plaza Hotel Glasgow, Saturday 28 October 2017 “It’s great to have a Patron like Sarah Winckless who is so enthusiastic. I really appreciated her warmth and vitality” “Ed’s presentation was extremely informative and enjoyable put across in an easy to understand way and with humour” Catherine Martin, Chairperson writes... As Charles Sabine and Dr Ed Wild both said at the recent SHA Family Conference in October, Scotland is the best place in the world to have HD. I am sure some of you will think that there is no best place - but I assure you there is. We have FREE health care, we have a family service (in SHA) that looks after the whole family, we have protection (to a greater degree than most) against genetic discrimination, we are a leading research base for HD and we have families who are passionate and determined to win the battle against this disease. We all know the devastation HD brings, but imagine you have no electricity, no health care, you don’t have a bricks and mortar home and the community you once felt safe in no longer accepts you as a member. This is exactly the situation that I recently encountered with a family in the USA. Or families in Canada, where, until this summer, talking about HD could result in losing your job, your insurance and your bank account.

We have continued to positively restructure after the massive changes brought about by the three stock transfers in 2011. Despite these changes, thanks to the huge effort and committment of the staff, performance across a range of indicators has improved. These improvements are detailed within the report. Last year saw the continued building on our commitments to tenants made during the Second Stage Transfer, including finishing the refurbishment of St Andrew’s Crescent, completing much of the massive Moss Heights refurbishment work and the upgrading of the CCTV programme leading to greater community safety. These projects have not been without challenges to tenants, staff and contractors and I have been impressed at the forebearance of tenants during this time. The UK government’s Welfare Reform programme will increase the pressure on low income families and will affect financial commitments, including rent payments. The Association is making a positive response to the challenges facing our tenants and the Housing Management team has been allocated greater resources for welfare advice and rent collection. This will have the effect of both protecting our income and helping tenants affected by benefit changes.
