  • Swindon Bus Station
    What is this document? We (primarily Lee) have looked at what the bus network might look like under option 24/7 in a pilot area, at the request of Philip Whitehead (meetings March and April 2016) The area selected was from (in the north) the Bath – Corsham – Chippenham – Calne – Royal Wootton Bassett corridor through to the Bath – Bradford-on-Avon – Trowbridge – Westbury – Warminster corridor to the West, covering all of West Wilts, services within that area out to Devizes. There is always considerable overlap across boundaries with public transport services, so you'll find significant services off the edge listed here, many of which are adjustments of ongoing supported services to continue to provide a logical, useful service. The suggestions here reduce the number of vehicle diagrams in the area from 59 to 52 – a saving of around 14%. The number of drivers required would be reduced somewhat less due to extension of some ENCTS time only services to cover journeys to and from work and in the evening and on Sundays and perhaps where appropriate a night bus. In general, very very few places / streets have lost their services, whilst areas such as the Pewsham Estate in Chippenham and Pickwick Road in Corsham see regular buses return, having been withdrawn under the current system. A number of new journey opportunities are provided too (some significant, some making use of much better bus / train connectivity) but there are cases where a change of vehicle will now be needed in place of a through service. Currently commercial services which thrive as “turn up and go” operations remain hardly changed – we are not proposing messing with what works – keeping the good.

  • 12. Transportation
    12. Transportation Introduction 12.1 This Chapter discusses the assessment of potential environmental effects resulting from the traffic, transport movements and infrastructure associated with the Proposed Development. 12.2 The Chapter describes the consultation that was undertaken during the EIA process and outlines the scope of the assessment and assessment methodology. A summary of the baseline information informing the assessment is also provided. 12.3 Several potential effects resulting from the Proposed Development were minimised in advance of the assessment and where relevant, this is clearly stated. The Chapter reports on the likely significant environmental effects and subsequently, mitigation measures required to prevent, reduce or offset any significant adverse effects, or further enhance beneficial effects. The conclusions are provided both in terms of the residual effects and their significance. 12.4 This Chapter (and its associated figures and appendices) is intended to be read as part of the wider ES with particular reference to the introductory chapters of this ES (Chapters 1 - 5) and Chapter 19: Cumulative Effects Assessment. Legislative Framework National Policy and Legislation National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF, 2019) 12.5 Section 9 of the NPPF (Ref 12.1) focuses on promoting sustainable transport whilst acknowledging that the opportunities to maximise sustainable transport vary within different communities and from rural to urban areas. The NPPF provides guidance on transport infrastructure to facilitate sustainable travel in paragraphs 109 to 111. Local Policy and Legislation Swindon Transport Strategy (2009) and Swindon Local Transport Plan 2011-2026 (LTP3, 2009) 12.6 Swindon LTP3 (Ref 12.2) sets out the transport plans for the borough-based on the sustainable principles of the NPPF.

Our local guide is your essential tool to everything going on in the town and surrounding area. Wantage is a picturesque market town and civil parish in the Vale of White Horse and is ideally located within easy reach of Oxford, Swindon, Newbury and Reading – all of which are less than twenty miles away. The town benefits from a wealth of shops and services, including restaurants, cafés, pubs, leisure facilities and open spaces. Wantage’s links with its past are very strong – King Alfred the Great was born in the town, and there are literary connections to Sir John Betjeman and Thomas Hardy. The historic market town is the gateway to the Ridgeway – an ancient route through downland, secluded valleys and woodland – where you can enjoy magnificent views of the Vale of White Horse, observe its prehistoric hill figure and pass through countless quintessential English country villages. If you are already local to Wantage, we hope you will discover something new.

    Botley Character Statement West Way Community Concern 1 Contents A. Introduction to the Botley Character Statement C. Headline Findings D. Location, Context and Layout E. Historical Development F. Character Areas 1. West Way 2. Old Botley 3. Seacourt 4. Westminster Way 5. Arthray Road 6. Cumnor Rise 7. North of West Way 8. Dean Court G. Sources Appendix A. Methodology 2 Section A. Introduction to the Botley Character Statement Local residents and businesses in Botley have joined together to prepare this character statement as a result of concern that new development should respond positively to the area’s established positive character. Local and national planning policies require proposals for new development to take local character into account and respond positively to it in the design of new buildings and spaces and their use. However, defining what the positive features of local character are that should be sustained and what negative feature should be managed out through development is a fundamental stage in this design process and requires assessment, analysis and establishment of consensus. Character assessments are now being undertaken by various community groups, as well as local planning authorities to establish this consensus about what is valued in the character of local areas and neighbourhoods to inform planning for change. To support local communities in undertaking their own assessment of character a number of toolkits have been prepared with the assistance of CABE and English Heritage. These are a recognised means for community groups to prepare character assessments that are sufficiently robust and reliable to be informative for planning decisions.
