NCA Profile:124 Pevensey Levels
National Character 124. Pevensey Levels Area profile: Supporting documents www.naturalengland.org.uk 1 National Character 124. Pevensey Levels Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. -

It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion3. Air Quality in Crawley Borough Council Crawley is located in the north of the County of West Sussex, with Gatwick airport lying along its northern boundary with Surrey, and the borough of Reigate & Banstead and the M23 along its eastern border. As part of the Local Air Quality Management process (LAQM) required by the Environment Act 1995, the council carries out an annual review and assessment of air quality in the borough, which helps us to identify local air quality hot spots, and relate these to pollution sources. -
Agenda Item Report to Lead Cabinet Member for Transport and Environment Date 25 June 2007 Report by Director of Transport
Agenda Item Report to Lead Cabinet Member for Transport and Environment Date 25 June 2007 Report By Director of Transport and Environment Title of Report National Cycle Network Route 21 – Cuckoo Trail Northern Extension Purpose of Report To consider the report of the feasibility study undertaken by consultants, Atkins Limited RECOMMENDATIONS 1. To note the report by Atkins Limited, the Executive Summary of which is set out in Appendix 1, and the commentary prepared by officers contained in Appendix 2.; and 2. To agree that further local consultation on the report’s findings will take place before any decision is taken regarding options for the Cuckoo Trail Northern Extension. 1. Financial Appraisal 1.1 There are no significant financial implications at this stage in respect of the recommendations detailed in this report. The further local consultation will require the hire of a suitable venue for a meeting at a cost of approximately £100 plus staff time which can be met from the revenue budget for Traffic Management. 1.2 In the event that the scheme proceeds, the Atkins report suggests a range of costs for the Heathfield to Mayfield section of £260,000 to £1 million depending on the option chosen, for which there is no current budget allocation. 2. Supporting Information 2.1 The National Cycle Network (NCN) Route 21 passes through East Sussex from Polegate to the county boundary near East Grinstead. At present the first 11 miles of this link from Polegate to Heathfield runs along the Cuckoo Trail, a high quality, largely traffic- free route, and similarly the last 10 miles from Groombridge to the county boundary is a traffic-free facility along the Forest Way. -
