    APPENDIX A Full Business Case (FBC) 1. General Information Directorate Economy Portfolio/ Transport and Roads Committee Commercialism, Commissioning and Contract Management Project Title Birmingham Cycle Revolution: Project CA-02714-10, Phase 2 & 3 Green Routes Code CA-02752-10 and CA-02752-05-6 Project Description Introduction This document represents the Full Business Case (FBC) for the remaining Green Route schemes under the Birmingham Cycle Revolution (BCR) programme, including associated on-road ‘Local Link’ measures to maintain route continuity, for delivery in 2017/18 at an estimated total capital cost of £1.650m. Details of the individual schemes are given below and on the plans in Appendix E, F and G. The schemes are funded through the Department for Transport’s Cycle City Ambition Grant (CCAG), the Greater Birmingham and Solihull Local Enterprise Partnership (GBSLEP) Local Growth Fund (LGF), Section 106 developer funding (S106), and the City Council’s Integrated Transport Block (ITB) capital allocation as a local contribution. Further details are given in Section 2 of this Appendix. Background Birmingham Cycle Revolution Programme The overall BCR programme was updated and revised under a ‘Progress Update and Programme Revision’ report approved by Cabinet on 13th December 2016. The programme is being delivered in three phases. All three phases include a combination of highway infrastructure, off road routes, and supporting measures. An FBC for BCR Phase 1 Green Routes was approved by Cabinet in January 2014, and a second tranche of Phase 1 Green Routes was then approved by Cabinet in May 2015. These approvals were funded through the first tranche of Department for Transport (DfT) Cycle City Ambition Grant (CCAG) capital funding.

  • Birmingham's Evangelical Free Churches and The
    BIRMINGHAM’S EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCHES AND THE FIRST WORLD WAR by ANDY VAIL A Thesis Submitted to The University of Birmingham For the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY School of History & Cultures College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham 2019 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This thesis demonstrates that the First World War did not have a major long-term impact on the evangelical free churches of Birmingham. Whilst many members were killed in the conflict, and local church auxiliaries were disrupted, once the participants – civil and military – returned, the work and mission of the churches mostly continued as they had before the conflict, the exception being the Adult School movement, which had been in decline prior to the conflict. It reveals impacts on local church life, including new opportunities for women amongst the Baptist and Congregational churches where they began to serve as deacons. The advent of conscription forced church members to personally face the issue as to whether as Christians they could in conscience bear arms. The conflict also speeded ecumenical co-operation nationally, in areas such as recognition of chaplains, and locally, in organising local prayer meetings and commemorations.

  • Manic Street Preachers Tornano Con Un Nuovo Disco, Intitolato Futurology, in Uscita L'8 Manic Street Preachers Luglio 2014
    LUNEDì 28 APRILE 2014 A soli nove mesi di distanza dall'acclamato Rewind The Film (top 5 nel Regno Unito), undicesimo album da studio della band, i Manic Street Preachers tornano con un nuovo disco, intitolato Futurology, in uscita l'8 Manic Street Preachers luglio 2014. Futurology, il nuovo album, in uscita l'8 luglio. Registrati ai leggendari Hansa Studios di Berlino e al Faster, lo studio dei In concerto in Italia il 2 giugno 2014 al RocK In Manics a Cardiff, i tredici brani che compongono l'album vedono la band Idro di Bologna gallese in forma smagliante, addirittura esplosiva. Uno stacco netto rispetto al disco precedente, ma sempre all'insegna di uno stile inconfondibile. LA REDAZIONE Il primo singolo estratto è "Walk Me To The Bridge", dalle chiare influenze europee. In una recente conversazione con John Doran di Quietus, Nicky Wire ha parlato del testo del brano, che ha cominciato a prendere forma qualche anno fa. "Qualcuno penserà che la canzone contenga tanti riferimenti a Richey Edwards, ma in realtà parla del ponte di Øresund che collega la Svezia alla Danimarca. Tanto tempo fa, quando [email protected] attraversavamo quel ponte, stavo perdendo entusiasmo per le cose e SPETTACOLINEWS.IT pensavo di lasciare la band (il "fatal friend").
