This includes improvements to National Cycleway Network (NCN) Route 4 between Cribbs Causeway and Severn Beach which is funded through Highway England’s Designated Fund for Cycling, Safety and Integration. Sustrans, with Mott MacDonald Sweco Joint Venture, completed a feasibility study and outline design for the scheme on behalf of Highways England which South Gloucestershire Council is taking forward to construction. South Gloucestershire Council, using funding from Highways England will be progressing the scheme through public consultation, detailed design and construction. Purpose of the Scheme The purpose of this scheme is to make improvements to the NCN Route 4 between Cribbs Causeway and Severn Beach, upgrading the cycling and walking infrastructure around the ASEA.

Details of the proposals including a plan and statement of reasons were posted on the South Gloucestershire website. The Council sent letters advising of the consultation to all properties affected by the proposals. In addition, notices were posted and maintained in the area for the 3 week consultation period. Local members, the Town Council and emergency services, amongst other statutory stakeholders were invited by email to view the consultation. Two drop-in sessions were held, one at Severn Beach Village Hall with approximately 50 attendees and the other at Easter Compton Village Hall with approximately 40 attendees. Feedback from the consultation There were 66 individuals and organisations that responded to the consultation via the questionnaire and eight other responses.

Nigel Riglar, Director for Environment and Community Services Streetcare, Transport and Waste, Design & Operations Team, P O Box 1954, Bristol, BS37 0DD 4 Tel: 01454 868004 E-mail: [email protected] www.southglos.gov.uk Future Programme In light of the responses received at consultation and the fact that the majority supported the proposals, the elements of the scheme that require permanent Traffic Regulation Orders (TRO’s) will now be sent to the Councils Legal Team for formal advertisement. The proposals have been amended as the design has progressed to the detailed design stage and to address any concerns raised during the Stage 1 Road Safety Audit. The main change is the proposal to use speed cushions in place of the speed tables originally proposed to avoid any potential issues with ground borne vibrations. Other changes include the following: Hollywood Lane Road closure proposed at top (near the Activity Centre) and at the bottom (near Manor Farm). Closure to be instigated by the use of heavy concrete blocks. The planter shown on the Sustrans drawing would add to the Council’s ongoing maintenance liabilities and is therefore no longer proposed. Bowstreet Lane Overrun areas introduced as part of the proposed junction modifications at the junction of Bowstreet Lane and Hollywood Lane and at the junction of Bowstreet Lane and Farm Lane. Farm Lane The proposed shelter and seating has been deleted. The proposed bollards have been replaced with heavy concrete blocks following concerns raised during consultation about security and potential fly tipping. Alternative seating is being considered along the whole route. Govier Way Location of parallel crossings adjusted to reduce the chance of long vehicles stopping at the crossing and blocking the circulatory carriageway on the roundabouts. Severn Beach Proposed speed tables replaced with speed cushions. Shaft Road – Shaft Road is now included in the proposed 20mph zone. Green Lane – following comments received during the consultation it is proposed to reduce the speed limit on Green Lane between the M49 bridge and Severn Beach from 50mph to 30mph. Beach Avenue – The proposed speed table at the northern junction of Beach Road and Beach Avenue deleted and replaced by speed cushions outside 56 and 62 Beach Avenue. Beach Road – Alignment of proposed parking bays outside 157, 159 and 161 Beach Road revised. Proposed speed table near 100 Beach Road deleted. Proposed speed table outside Down’s Bakery deleted and replaced with a build-out. Station Road - The proposed contraflow cycle lane has been extended further to the west. The bus stop outside the railway station to remain in its existing location. The proposed speed table outside rail station deleted, replaced by speed cushions and an uncontrolled crossing outside Crossing Cottage. The changes at the access into Stride Close have been scaled down as Stride Close is not adopted highway. Nigel Riglar, Director for Environment and Community Services Streetcare, Transport and Waste, Design & Operations Team, P O Box 1954, Bristol, BS37 0DD 5 Tel: 01454 868004 E-mail: [email protected] www.southglos.gov.uk Mini roundabout (Station Road, Gorse Cover Road, Ableton Lane) – the raised table and crossings have been deleted and tactile paving has been introduced at the crossing points. Church Road – the proposed island and tree at the corner of Church Road and Little Green Lane to be deleted and road markings used instead. Ableton Lane – proposed zebra crossing relocated to the north of Albert Road. Proposed speed tables outside school and village hall deleted. The kerbing works outside the school has been deleted as this area is not adopted. Depending on the comments received at the public advertisement stage, it is anticipated that the works in Severn Beach will be carried out early 2020. Nigel Riglar, Director for Environment and Community Services Streetcare, Transport and Waste, Design & Operations Team, P O Box 1954, Bristol, BS37 0DD 6 Tel: 01454 868004 E-mail: [email protected] www.southglos.gov.uk Additional Information and Council’s Response 1. Hollywood Lane Proposed road closure Follow comments received, it is proposed to close Hollywood Lane at the top and bottom to minimise the chances of fly tipping. Closure is likely to be achieved by using large concrete blocks with a 1.5m wide gap. Congestion Hollywood Lane is a rat run and is unsuitable for large vehicles and large volumes of traffic. Emergency vehicle access Emergency vehicles would have to use an alternative and more suitable route. Equestrians It is intended that Hollywood Lane will continue to be available for use by horse riders after closure to motorised vehicles. Make Hollywood Lane one way One way working could increase traffic speeds and compromise road safety. Footway on Blackhorse Hill The provision of a footway on Blackhorse Hill would be very expensive and not straightforward to construct due to the existing trees, wall and existing slopes. 2. Bowstreet Lane, Berwick Lane Cycle lanes Cycle lanes are not proposed along Bowstreet Lane or Berwick Lane because there is insufficient width to provide them. Consideration will be given to installing cycle symbol road markings only. Sat Navs Signing warning drivers not to follow Sat Navs will be retained. Access only signs With the exception of the existing 7.5t weight limit, drivers are not restricted from using Bowstreet Lane or Berwick Lane. It is not possible to sign it as access only. 3. Farm Lane Barrier Issues in the past with travellers

  • Gordon Richard Sydney Haines War Time Memories I
    Gordon Richard Sydney Haines war time memories I was born in Almondsbury Hospital South Gloucestershire on 23 December, 1932. My parents Florence Mabel HAINES and Sydney George HAINES then lived at Box Tree Cottage in the Village of Alveston, Gloucestershire with my sister Jean, two years older than me and my Grandfather, William Ballinger, Mum’s father. Life at home was pleasant; the village was then small and uncomplicated. An outside bucket toilet, no running water, we had our own well with a small pump, no electricity, we used oil lamps and had a coal-burning indoor stove which also provided hot water for the Saturday night bath ! We grew all our own vegetables and had apple and plum trees, raspberry and gooseberry bushes for all our fruit. The fields around provided us with blackberries and mushrooms and there was a small forest named Wolfridge, where the housing estates now exist, providing firewood and adventures for the village boys. My primary education was at the Church of England Elementary School at Rudgeway a mile away over the fields from Alveston but aged 10 I transferred to Thornbury Council School where I took the examination for entry to Thornbury Grammar School on a local council scholarship, at age 11 in 1943 and in September that year began my secondary education. My sister Jean was also studying there. My earliest recollection of doing something as a family was the requirement at the outbreak of war in 1939 for everyone to register at the local council office (opposite the Cross Hands Hotel !) to be fitted for Gas Masks.

  • South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group
    COUNCIL SIZE SUBMISSION South Gloucestershire South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group. February 2017 Overview of South Gloucestershire 1. South Gloucestershire is an affluent unitary authority on the North and East fringe of Bristol. South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) was formed in 1996 following the dissolution of Avon County Council and the merger of Northavon District and Kingswood Borough Councils. 2. South Gloucestershire has around 274,700 residents, 62% of which live in the immediate urban fringes of Bristol in areas including Kingswood, Filton, Staple Hill, Downend, Warmley and Bradley Stoke. 18% live in the market towns of Thornbury, Yate, and Chipping Sodbury. The remaining 20% live in rural Gloucestershire villages such as Marshfield, Pucklechurch, Hawkesbury Upton, Oldbury‐ on‐Severn, Alveston, and Charfield. 3. South Gloucestershire has lower than average unemployment (3.3% against an England average of 4.8% as of 2016), earns above average wages (average weekly full time wage of £574.20 against England average of £544.70), and has above average house prices (£235,000 against England average of £218,000)1. Deprivation 4. Despite high employment and economic outputs, there are pockets of deprivation in South Gloucestershire. Some communities suffer from low income, unemployment, social isolation, poor housing, low educational achievement, degraded environment, access to health services, or higher levels of crime than other neighbourhoods. These forms of deprivation are often linked and the relationship between them is so strong that we have identified 5 Priority Neighbourhoods which are categorised by the national Indices of Deprivation as amongst the 20% most deprived neighbourhoods in England and Wales. These are Cadbury Heath, Kingswood, Patchway, Staple Hill, and west and south Yate/Dodington.

  • Statement from SWTN on Public Transport Cuts, Budgets and Devolution
    Statement from SWTN on public transport cuts, budgets and devolution - Bristol City Council, BANES and South Gloucestershire Councils meetings on Devolution in November 2016 Whilst we welcome the Devolution deal the issues about transport powers are a concern on how it will be possible to operate and franchise a bus network that does not cover the four unitary authorities in terms of a franchise or a quality partnership where buses operate between UWE - Portishead and Clevedon would be outside the agreement. Similarly bus services through Hotwells, Clevedon and Weston would have to operate under the permit system under the Buses Bill or would require a separate quality partnership covering North Somerset by the new combined authority to cover North Somerset either as an advanced quality partnership or an enhanced quality partnership. It would also require a different agreement for a multi-journey, multi-operator and multi-modal ticketing scheme and North Somerset would still require referral to the Traffic Commissioner for services whereas the Metro-Mayor would have full control over the bus services through contracts or partnerships. Of course this would also apply to a Planning or Transport Commissioner. On rail it would be very difficult to arrange improvements to services without the full Portishead line being in the deal and the line from Gloucester to Weston-Super-Mare. This would make station improvements very difficult or to seek rail powers for Metro-West with the franchise and Network Rail. Access for All programmes could be carried out at Lawrence Hill, Stapleton Road, Patchway, Pilning, Filton and Parson Street but would leave the situation of station improvements in North Somerset outside the power of the combined authority.
