    REACH 05 HAMPTON WICK The Thames Landscape Strategy Review 2 2 7 Landscape Character Reach No. 5 HAMPTON WICK 4.05.1 Overview 1994-2012 • Part redevelopment of the former Power Station site - refl ecting the pattern of the Kingston and Teddington reaches, where blocks of 5 storeys have been introduced into the river landscape. • A re-built Teddington School • Redevelopment of the former British Aerospace site next to the towpath, where the river end of the site is now a sports complex and community centre (The Hawker Centre). • Felling of a row of poplar trees on the former power station site adjacent to Canbury Gardens caused much controversy. • TLS funding bid to the Heritage Lottery Fund for enhancements to Canbury Gardens • Landscaping around Half Mile Tree has much improved the entrance to Kingston. • Construction of an upper path for cyclists and walkers between Teddington and Half Mile Tree • New visitor moorings as part of the Teddington Gateway project have enlivened the towpath route • Illegal moorings are increasingly a problem between Half Mile Tree and Teddington. • Half Mile Tree Enhancements 2007 • Timber-yards and boat-yards in Hampton Wick, the Power Station and British Aerospace in Kingston have disappeared and the riverside is more densely built up. LANDSCAPE CHARACTER 4.05.2 The Hampton Wick Reach curves from Kingston Railway Bridge to Teddington Lock. The reach is characterised by residential areas interspersed with recreation grounds. Yet despite tall apartment blocks at various locations on both banks dating from the last 30 years of the 20th century, the reach remains remarkably green and well-treed.

I refer to the letter dated February 20th from the developer’s highway consultants RPS in response to my previous memorandum dated February 13th 2009. RPS have confirmed that there will be a maximum of 814 construction workers. Having regards to the construction workers at AWE Aldermaston, 62 % of workers travelled to the site by car. RPS therefore confirm that overall 538 spaces will be required, of which 300 will be provided in the new car park at Pingewood Gate, with workers coached to the construction enclave. An additional 130 car parking spaces will be provided within AWE Burghfield and the construction enclave accessed from Pingewood Gate, with a further 138 provided within existing areas accessed from the Main Gate. It would therefore seem that there will be sufficient car parking provided within the site. 2. I refer to the latest drawing of the off site highway works RPS drawing number JNY6430/002-E.

  • River Kennet – Craven Fishery
    River Kennet – Craven Fishery An Advisory Visit by the Wild Trout Trust November 2014 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a site meeting and walk-over survey of the Craven Fishery on the River Kennet at Hampstead Marshall in Berkshire. The request for the visit came from the owner of the fishery, Mr. Richard White. Mr. White is keen to explore opportunities to enhance and improve the fishery. The quality of the fishery, and in particular water quantity and quality have been in steady decline over the last 25 years and is thought to be linked to a combination of factors, including the restoration and re-opening of the Kennet and Avon Canal, increased abstraction pressures at Axford and the arrival of non-native signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. White and the river keeper Mr. Geoff Trotman Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification, i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Map 1 Craven Fishery 2 The Craven fishery lies just downstream from a short section of combined river and navigation channel. The river and canal converge below Copse Lock and separate at the head of the Craven Fishery at NGR SU 421679. Through the Craven Fishery, the river channel runs parallel with the Kennet and Avon Canal before the two channels re-join near the bottom boundary of the fishery at SU 431667. The fishery itself consists of a section of main-river and a shorter section of milling channel.

  • 15 Road Drainage and the Water Environment
    HIGHWAYS AGENCY – M4 JUNCTIONS 3 TO 12 SMART MOTORWAY 15 ROAD DRAINAGE AND THE WATER ENVIRONMENT 15.1 Introduction 15.1.1 This chapter assesses the impacts of the Scheme on road drainage and the water environment during construction and operation, focussing on the effects of highway drainage on the quality and hydrology of receiving waters. In view of the long design-life of the Scheme (30 years for new gantries, 40 years for new carriageway construction, and 120 years for new bridges), the decommissioning phase of the Scheme has not been considered in this chapter because its effects are not predicted to be worse than the effects assessed during the construction and operational phases. The chapter assesses four principal impacts: a) effects of routine runoff on surface water bodies; b) effects of routine runoff on groundwater; c) pollution impacts from spillages; and d) flood impacts. 15.1.2 Although Interim Advice Note (”IAN”) 161/13 ‘Managed Motorways, All lane running’ (Ref 15-1) has scoped out the assessment of ‘Road Drainage and the Water Environment’ for smart motorway schemes, the assessment is required to ensure the protection of the water environment, to prevent its degradation, and ensure adequate mitigation measures are in place to prevent any adverse impacts. 15.1.3 The road drainage and water environment assessment for the Scheme has been undertaken in accordance with standard industry practice and statutory guidance. 15.1.4 This chapter details the methodology followed for the assessment, and summarises the regulatory and policy framework relating to road drainage and the water environment.
