The revised redline boundary and location of the site is provided as Plan EDP 1. 1.3 The site is identified as a potential strategic site in the Shropshire Council strategic sites consultation document (July 2019) for the construction of a strategic employment site of around 50 hectares (ha); accompanied by around 3,000 homes and a local centre to provide services, facilities and infrastructure, as part of a planned settlement. The Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey has been completed to supplement the evidence-base being collated to inform promotion as part of a preliminary ecological constraints/opportunities analysis. 1.4 The site is centred on Ordnance Survey Grid Reference (OSGR) SJ 785 091 and is illustrated on Plan EDP 1 which accompanies this report. Much of the southern boundary of the site lies adjacent to the M54 motorway. The east of the site is largely bounded by the A41, with some additional areas of land immediately east of the A41. The northern boundary lies adjacent to the A5 with the western boundary lying adjacent to Lizard Wood, a large plantation woodland and arable fields and the B4379, a minor single track road. The wider landscape is predominantly arable with the nearest large town being Telford, located approximately 5.5km to the west. 1.5 This report addresses the ecology considerations pertaining to the site’s potential to accommodate a strategic employment and residential site. Specifically, it considers whether there are any ‘in principle’ ecological constraints to the site’s allocation for development or whether there are any other ecological constraints and opportunities which may influence the proposed development’s design, deliverability and/or capacity. 1.6 In the event that the allocation is confirmed, and a planning application is prepared, as per the requirements of the draft allocation policy, a full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) would be produced to inform the determination of that application by the Council. 1 Land North of Junction 3 of the M54, Shropshire Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey edp4371_r005e This page has been left blank intentionally 2 Land North of Junction 3 of the M54, Shropshire Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey edp4371_r005e Section 2 Methodology 2.1 The findings, conclusions and recommendations of this report have been informed by a desk study and site survey carried out by experienced EDP Ecologists during 2019. Desk Study 2.2 The methodology for the desk study is presented in full in Appendix EDP 1. Site Survey 2.3 The survey technique adopted for the site visit was based on the standard ‘Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey’ technique1, based on habitat mapping and description, with additional information on Protected and Notable Species in the form of target notes. This level of survey does not aim to compile a complete floral and faunal inventory for the site. The level of survey involves identifying and mapping the principal habitat types based on the dominant and/or key flora. 2.4 The survey of the site was undertaken previously on 26 June and 28 June 2018 with the update survey of the additional areas of land completed on 05 July 2019. June and July are considered to be an optimal time of year for completing this type of survey. Limitations 2.5 It should be acknowledged that the purpose of the survey was to inform major or ‘in principle’ ecological constraints, and not to inform a planning application at this stage. Therefore, while all areas of the site were visited, the survey did not involve data collection at the level of detail necessary to inform a planning application. This could potentially result in the omission of minor details from this report but does not compromise its purpose, i.e. the overall assessment of the site’s general level of ecological constraint. Important Arable Plant Area Inventory 2.6 During the site survey a number of arable weed species were noted and therefore, an assessment of the value of these species at a National level was assessed using Plantlife’s2 Important Arable Plant Area (IAPA) inventory. This ranks certain species depending on their rarity, with the results totalled. On sand/free draining soils as are 1 Joint Nature Conservation Council (2004) Handbook for Phase 1 Habitat Survey – A Technique for Environmental Audit (reprinted with minor corrections for original Nature Conservancy Council publication) 2 https://www.plantlife.org.uk/uk/discover-wild-plants-nature/habitats/arable-farmland/surveying-arable-plants 3 Land North of Junction 3 of the M54, Shropshire Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey edp4371_r005e present within the site a score of 20 and above is considered to be of County importance, 35 and above National and a score over 70 being of European importance. However, it should be noted that a detailed survey of each field for the arable Species present was not undertaken, and the assessment undertaken provides only a broad evaluation of the site’s potential value. Evaluation 2.7 Based on industry standard evaluation guidance3, ecological features are evaluated where possible on a geographical scale of value as follows: International/European > National > County > District > Local > Less than Local. In the absence of data from Protected Species surveys, professional judgement has been used to assign a likely value to ecological features. The intrinsic ecological value of habitats is based upon consideration of criteria including: size, connectivity, likely distinctiveness, likely species-richness and intensity of management. For populations/species assemblage, the likely presence/absence and if present their value is based upon a size/diversity inferred from the presence of suitable habitat. Given the level of baseline information currently obtained, it is not possible to evaluate the importance of many species/habitats given that their presence/quality has yet to be confirmed. 3 CIEEM (2016).

CIEEM, Winchester 4 Land North of Junction 3 of the M54, Shropshire Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey edp4371_r005e Section 3 Ecological Baseline Preliminary Ecological Baseline Designated Sites Statutory Designations 3.1 Statutory designations represent the most significant ecological receptors, being of recognised importance at an International and/or National level. Statutory designations of International/European value include Special Protection Areas (SPAs), Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) and Ramsar Sites. Statutory designations of National value include Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and National Nature Reserves (NNRs). Although Local Nature Reserves (LNRs) are statutory, their level of value is typically County level or less consistent with non-statutory designations and are therefore considered alongside non-statutory sites (see below). Statutory Designations – International 3.2 International statutory designated sites include Natura 2000 sites regarded as being important at a European level including, SPAs, SACs and Globally important wetlands designated as Ramsar Sites4. 3.3 The site is not covered by or lies adjacent to any statutory designations of International importance. 3.4 There are two designations of International importance within 15km of the site which, are

  • Back to the Floor
    00 Arriva NOW! December 2009 3 Back to the floor MEETING and exceeding customers’ expectations is a priority at Arriva and National Customer Service Week (NCSW) provided the perfect opportunity to demonstrate this. Highlighting how important good customer care is for the business was just one of the benefits of NCSW, which was held from 5-9 October. It was also a chance for Arriva’s excellent customer service to shine. It was the first time Arriva had taken part in the national event and the newly centralised customer service team at Aintree and Luton used Customer service advisor Steve Byrne with operations manager Mark Brack. the occasion to organise a range of events and activities. Cross-team quizzes, a dress-down day at Aintree and a colour-themed day at Luton were just a few of the highlights. The Institute of Customer Service visited Luton, and managers from across the business went “back to the floor”. Feedback In Glasgow, Leeds, Middlesbrough, Wakefield and Whitby managers and directors joined passengers on Arriva’s buses to get face-to-face feedback. Managers and directors also took to the phones to listen to what customers had to say. Mark Brack, operations manager at Arriva North West’s St Helens’ garage, was just one of the managers who went “back to the floor” and says he found it to be a very helpful and interesting experience. Mark spent several hours with customer service advisor Steve Byrne at Aintree and was impressed with the professionalism of the team. Bob Winnington, Institute of Customer Service director, left, and customer service manager Linsey Frostick, right, He said: “I really admire the team’s knowledge, present Luton customer service advisor Dainh Danzine with a prize.

    Deutscher Bundestag Drucksache 19/27457 19. Wahlperiode 10.03.2021 Antwort der Bundesregierung auf die Kleine Anfrage der Abgeordneten Torsten Herbst, Frank Sitta, Oliver Luksic, weiterer Abgeordneter und der Fraktion der FDP – Drucksache 19/26671 – Entwicklung der wirtschaftlichen Lage der Arriva PLC Vorbemerkung der Fragesteller Im Jahr 2010 hat die Deutsche Bahn AG (DB AG) für rund 2,7 Mrd. Euro in- klusive der Übernahme vorhandener Schulden das britische Unternehmen Ar- riva PLC erworben. Mit Sitz in Sunderland betreibt Arriva in mehreren euro- päischen Ländern Bus- und Bahnverkehre. Zunächst galt das Unternehmen als wirtschaftliche attraktive Akquisition für die DB AG. So erwirtschaftete Arri- va Anfang der 2010er-Jahre mit rund 50 000 Mitarbeitern einen Jahresumsatz von mehr als 5 Mrd. Euro. (https://www.handelsblatt.com/26044118.html) Vor dem Hintergrund der immer weiter steigenden Schuldenlast des DB-Konzerns unternahm der DB-Vorstand im Jahr 2019 zunächst den Versuch, Arriva zu verkaufen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt beliefen sich die Schulden der DB AG, auch aufgrund neuer Bilanzierungsvorgaben, auf 25 Mrd. Euro. Geplant war zu- nächst, durch den Komplettverkauf bis zu vier Mrd. Euro einzunehmen. Im weiteren Verlauf des Jahres 2019 scheiterte der Verkaufsversuch jedoch. Medienberichten war zu diesem Zeitpunkt zu entnehmen, dass dem DB- Aufsichtsrat die von Investoren genannten Angebote zu niedrig gewesen sei- en. So sollte zumindest der ursprüngliche Kaufpreis von rund 3 Mrd. Euro durch den Verkauf erzielt werden (https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/unterneh men/arriva-und-brexit-deutsche-bahn-blaest-boersengang-bei-britischer-tochte r-ab-a-1292544.html). Da ein solches Angebot nicht vorlag, entschied die DB AG daraufhin, Arriva im Jahr 2020 an die Börse zu bringen.

  • 200822 Arriva Return to School
    18 August 2020 Dear Head Teacher, As the new term approaches and you are gearing up to return your pupils to school/college, we are aware that a key concern both yourselves and parents are likely to have is how to get them to you safely. I’d like to take this opportunity to share some information with you on how our bus services will be operating to ensure that all those wishing to travel with us can do so safely and confidently. Please rest assured that all of our buses are Covid-19 secure and undergo enhanced touchpoint cleaning each day. Good ventilation of fresh air is also ensured by keeping windows open wherever possible. To help reduce the amount of physical contact between pupils and drivers, we are asking pupils that do not receive a local authority bus pass to only use contactless payment or tickets via the Arriva Bus app. Cash will only be accepted as a form of payment in exceptional circumstances and where the correct fare can be paid, our drivers will not be able to provide change at this time. There are some elements of bus travel that are operating slightly differently this year. We will have a number of additional buses providing enhanced capacity for school, sixth form and college pupils; the route number for these services will have an “S” prefix before the usual route number – for example the extra buses on route 127 will be numbered S127. Pupils from any year group and from any school or college located on the route can travel on these buses.
