Minutes Aldred Drummond explained two outline planning applications were submitted for the redevelopment of the Fawley Power Station site to New Forest District Council and the New Forest National Park Authority in May 2019. Fawley Waterside are now working through all the documentation with both local planning authorities. At the moment Fawley Waterside anticipate a committee date in December 2019 with a decision likely on both outline applications by January 2020. Some local objections have been received and most refer to concerns for increased congestion on the A326 road network post development of the site. Claire Upton Brown said that the New Forest National Park Authority Local Plan is likely to be adopted later this month. The New Forest District Local Plan is slightly further behind and likely to be adopted in Spring 2020. Aldred Drummond explained that discussions with Hampshire County Council regarding road improvements to the B3053/A326 are going well. Fawley Waterside are assisting Hampshire County Council with their bid to the Solent Local Enterprise Partnership for funds for road improvements to the B3053/A326. Cllr Alan Alvey asked how the road improvement works associated with the Solent Local Enterprise Partnership bid differ from previous plans. Aldred Drummond confirmed this would allow Fawley Waterside to start road improvements South of Dibden Roundabout much earlier than originally planned. All shared a concern that any road improvements should not be planned and carried out in isolation as this might cause further problems long-term. Claire Upton Brown explained that the New Forest District Council is working with the New Forest National Park Authority and Hampshire County Council to look at a holistic overview of what needs to be done to the B3053/A326. The County are looking for major funding sources in addition to the Solent Local Enterprise Partnership bid. There has been an evolution to the South East Transport Board to look at infrastructure needs. Cllr Allan Glass said one company cannot be responsible for funding all the road improvements when congestion will be caused by lots of developments on the Waterside. However, if we can show people that the road improvements South of Dibden Roundabout work it will be a good lever for works North of Dibden Roundabout. Steve Postlethwaite said that in the wider picture any improvements to the roads are good. It’s about highlighting the good things that are happening and the real change that’s going on around us. Cllr Allan Glass asked if the surveyors that have been seen currently working on the A326 are from the County. Claire Upton Brown said possibly. Cllr David Mcelhenny asked how confident Fawley Waterside are of getting the Solent Local Enterprise Partnership funds. Aldred Drummond said he is very confident but it really depends on the Board. Road improvements to the B3053/A326 will happen regardless but it would be extremely positive for the project and the Waterside to start them early. Cllr David Mcelhenny asked what the position of the Fawley Branch Line reopening was. Aldred Drummond said there has never been a firm proposal to reopen and extend the Line through Exxon, Fawley Waterside simply looked into this for interest. The current proposal, being funded alongside the outline planning applications, shows the reopening of the line from a new station called Hythe and Fawley Parkway to Southampton Central. Fawley Waterside and other Waterside landowners have bid for some central government money for reopening the Line. It is inevitable that landowners such as ABP will have to invest in the Line at some point anyway. The major cost is the level crossings and signaling work, particularly in Totton. The cost benefit analysis is still difficult to prove but there is still work to do. Aldred Drummond said Fawley Waterside continue to work on options for a small vessel to/from the Fawley Waterside dock. Cllr Allan Glass said the Hythe Ferry needed help. Cllr Sally Reid said all the transport proposals need to be looked at as a whole. Aldred Drummond used HPW Architects as an example of local businesses finding it difficult to get workers as they don’t want to drive to/from Marchwood. An improved ‘transport offer’ would help the local economy. Calum Cameron took all through a Brown and Mason presentation and explained Brown and Mason’s background and experience to date. Calum Cameron explained Brown and Mason are currently preparing the Fawley Power Station Turbine Hall and De-Aerator Building for the first explosive event. This is likely to take place in September but a date has not yet been confirmed. This event will see the roof of the Turbine Hall collapse into the basement and De-Aerator Building come down in its entirety. The wall of the Turbine Hall will remain as an environmental barrier. There will be an exclusion zone around the site during the event and sentries will mark the boundary. Local residents, businesses and landowners will all be notified in advance of the event. Shay Milgate asked about the effect of vibrations on neighbouring properties in Calshot, particularly Solent View as not all houses have stable foundations. Calum Cameron explained that vibration monitors will be placed around the site. A company called Vibrock will be managing each monitor. Brown and Mason do not anticipate there being any vibrations significant enough to effect neighbouring properties. Steve Postlewaite suggested and all agreed that a meeting or workshop with the residents of Fawley and Calshot with Brown and Mason would be beneficial to discuss the process and detail around demolition and the first explosive event. Steve Postlewaite also suggested involving the residents of Holbury and Langley. Tamsin Pearce to organise in due course. End .

  • CCATCH – the Solent
    !∀ #∃ % # !∀ #∃ % # &∋ # (( )∗(+,−( CCATCH – The Solent Evaluation of the Beaulieu to Calshot Pathfinder A report by Dr Anthony Gallagher and Alan Inder to Hampshire County Council February 2012 ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report provides an analysis and evaluation of the CCATCH – Beaulieu to Calshot Pathfinder project; the aim being to draw out the lessons learned and areas of best practice so as to inform the wider CCATCH - the Solent project, as well as the Interreg IVa funded CC2150 and Beyond. The methods employed to gather data included interviewing the key stakeholders involved in the process as well as the engagement consultants who facilitated it. This was supplemented by carrying out a public survey to gauge the project awareness and to interview the project managers of several other coastal adaptation projects, so as to enable a comparison with the work being carried out elsewhere. The results are generally very supportive of the approach taken and the tools and techniques employed during the Pathfinder, though highlighting with some clear room for improvement and consideration. On the basis that the selection of the area and the need for the project has already been established, the lessons learned relate inter alia to the application of stakeholder engagement and the commitment to implement identifiable actions; where engagement relates to its use both at the outset of the project and as a part of a developed on-going network beyond the lifetime of the funding. Commitment to following through with specific actions identified as part of the Adaptation Plan could then be implemented. In order to agree the Plan, and identify actions, it was clear that there was a need for specialist skills, and that these had been available for the Pathfinder.

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.

  • Lepe to Fawley History - Rosemary Devereux-Jones (July 2019)
    Summary of Historical Potential Lepe to Fawley history - Rosemary Devereux-Jones (July 2019) Statement of Historical Potential for Lepe to Fawley This trail paths to the east of the Dark Water River are shown on Thomas Milne’s map of 1791 and shown as rights of way, including the paths to the west in Exbury, on the OS map of 1810. The Cadland Estate is owned by R Drummonds Esq – large portions of this land is later sold to construction of Fawley Refinery. The trail covers areas extensively used during WW2 and for D-Day preparation and activity. An area on Badminston Common includes the holding tank area for PLUTO used during WW2 for fuel supplies. Near Mopley pond are the remains of the pump house used in the PLUTO operation. There are several remains of WW2 military installations throughout the trail area. The trail includes areas of ancient woodland at Chale Wood on path 13 and Calshot National Nature Reserves and SSSi on path 4 which is nationally important for overwintering waders and wildfowl. Indicated on the ArcGIS map is an ironworks on path 503 on the River Dark Water. There is the site of a brickworks, brick kiln and claypits on Whitefield Rough, mentioned in the 1841 census, next to clay pits to the south of this footpath. The bricks are said to have been used around Exbury and Beaulieu. Mills are indicated at Mopley and Stanswood on Taylor’s map 1759 (paths 12a and 10) although the Mills archive mentions only Stanswood watermill. There are stories of smuggling with the Mopley area being used for storage of contraband.

    June 2020 Welcome to the Rail User Express RUX may be forwarded, or items reproduced (quoting sources). Anyone may request it as an email attachment, or opt to be notified when it is posted on the Railfuture (Rf) website. There is no charge for either service. Following GDPR, Railfuture Membership now maintains both lists. Please advise if you no longer wish to receive RUX or the link, or if you know of anyone who would like to be added. For more on any item, consult the relevant website, or ask the editor for the source material. As the rail industry recovers from Covid-19, passenger numbers may well be depleted. We must hope that this is not used as an excuse to delay or even shelve much-needed rail infrastructure projects. On the contrary, it is the ideal time to fast track them, and so make rail a greener alternative to both the car and the HGV. Access to stations should encourage bus use, cycling and walking, whilst providing for those with restricted mobility. Roger Smith We continue with the usual roundup of news items from groups around the UK. Please keep your contributions coming: they are all gratefully received. Friends of the Far North Line Exciting news! After many years of work behind the scenes, especially by Frank Roach of HITRANS (Highlands and Islands Transport Partnership), plans are in hand for a proper transport hub in Inverness. Although the present bus station is quite near the railway station, there are several sites in between. With the financial help of Transport Scotland, NR has purchased the former Royal Mail sorting office and car park, the TK Maxx and Sports Direct buildings, a public car park and Highland Rail House on the north side of Station Square.
