Paper for Wapug Autumn Meeting 15 November 2001 Barrow Uid Study
Paper for WaPUG Autumn Meeting 15th November 2001 Barrow uID Study – Three for the Price of One Graham Squibbs B.Tech, C.Eng., MICE. Julian Barber M.Sc, B.Eng, C.Eng, MICE, MIWEM Modelling Team, Asset Management, Service Delivery, United Utilities Introduction This paper covers the work undertaken for the Barrow uID Study. This is part of the United Utilities overall AMP3 uID programme which requires the improvement of 914 uID’s by March 2005. The Barrow uID’s are programmed for resolution by March 2004. Brief description of the study area Barrow Location plan Barrow-in-Furness lies at the tip of the Furness peninsula in West Cumbria which is bounded by the Irish Sea on its south-west and west sides. Barrow Island was originally separated from the mainland by a narrow channel, which has been infilled by a string of docks. Walney Island lies 150m off shore to the west, separated from the mainland and Barrow Island by Walney Channel. There are designated bathing waters on the east and north-west coast of the Furness peninsula, and on the West Coast of Walney Island, and designated shellfish waters in Walney Channel. Combined sewer overflows discharge to the Poaka Beck/Mill Beck system which flows to the sea via Cavendish Dock (SSSI), whilst other overflows spill to Ormsgill Reservoir which has a recreational (non-contact) use. Total population is calculated as 67,400 based on census data. Overall the population of Barrow is projected to decrease within the next ten years. Wastewater System The study area is served by a combined sewer system with post 1960's development drained by separate systems.

11C13: Bardsea to Piel Island
Cumbria Coastal Strategy Technical Appraisal Report for Policy Area 11c13 Bardsea to Piel Island (Technical report by Jacobs) CUMBRIA COASTAL STRATEGY - POLICY AREA 11C13 BARDSEA TO PIEL ISLAND Policy area: 11c13 Bardsea to Piel Island Figure 1 Sub Cell 11c Arnside to Hodbarrow Point Location Plan of policy units. Baseline mapping © Ordnance Survey: licence number 100026791. 1 CUMBRIA COASTAL STRATEGY - POLICY AREA 11C13 BARDSEA TO PIEL ISLAND 1 Introduction 1.1 Location and site description Policy units: 11c13.1 Bardsea to Newbiggin 11c13.2 Newbiggin to Rampside (priority unit) 11c13.3 Rampside (priority unit) 11c13.4 Roa Island (priority unit) 11c13.5 Piel Island Responsibilities: South Lakeland District Council Barrow Borough Council Cumbria County Council Highways England (Historical Railway Estate) Cumbria Wildlife Trust Private landowners Location: The policy area falls within Sub cell 11c: (part) Arnside to Hodbarrow Point and covers the northern coast of Morecambe Bay between the Leven Estuary and Walney Island. Site overview: There are both coastal flood and erosion risks to this policy area, with the key risk being the potential consequences for the long term viability of the main coastal link road, A5087, as well as isolated properties. This policy area comprises the south easterly facing coastline of Morecambe Bay and is characterised by low till (boulder clay) cliffs and outcrops of limestone interspersed by areas of low lying land. Erosion of this material has resulted in the formation of localised cobble scars within the intertidal and sub tidal zones as on many other areas of the Cumbrian coast. The orientation of the frontage, combined with extensive intertidal banks of Morecambe Bay and the protection provided by Walney Island, results in the shoreline being relatively sheltered from wave action compared to the west coast of Cumbria.
