INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background 1.1.1 Network Rail intends to submit an application for an Order (TWAO) under the Transport and Works Act (TWA) 1992 for a new grade separated junction at Werrington (“the Proposed Scheme”). Werrington Grade Separation (WGS) is part of Network Rail’s East Coast Main Line (ECML) Connectivity Programme which seeks to relieve congestion and increase capacity on the ECML. 1.1.2 The ECML is the high-speed railway link between London and Edinburgh. Network Rail, which owns and operates Britain’s rail infrastructure, has worked with industry stakeholders to develop plans to deliver projects that will improve the capacity and reduce journey times on the ECML. The provision of a new dive under at Werrington Junction to separate high speed and freight traffic is a key enabler to provide additional capacity on the ECML. This will allow the introduction of additional Long Distance High Speed (LDHS) Paths to be available for the new timetable to be introduced in 2021. The project is identified as being funded in Network Rail’s Delivery Plan1 for the ECML. 1.1.3 The Peterborough area was one of a number of locations originally identified as a constraint to growth in the Department for Transport’s High Level Output Specification, first published July 2012, and the London North Eastern Route Summary Plan 2013. A significant constraint identified in that report was the operational conflict which currently exists between freight and LDHS services to the north of Peterborough station, where freight services running between London, East Anglia and the Great Northern/Great Eastern line (GNGE) to Spalding are required to make a very slow crossing (15mph) of the ECML from the Stamford lines which run parallel to the ECML. 1.1.4 The Proposed Scheme provides a new twin track railway and ancillary works at Werrington, linking the GNGE to the lines between Peterborough and Stamford (the ‘Stamford lines’). These works would enable slow moving freight trains to travel on a dedicated route under the ECML and then onto the GNGE and vice versa, as opposed to crossing the ECML at the same level (at grade), thus allowing for an increase in capacity for additional trains on the ECML. This type of junction is known as a grade-separated junction, i.e. tracks are separated by their grade, or level. Figure 1 illustrates the Proposed Scheme in its geographical context. 1 http://www.networkrail.co.uk/Hendy-review/ 2 The Network Rail (Werrington Grade Separation) Order December 2016 Report Summarising Consultation Undertaken Figure 1 – The Proposed Scheme plan 1.1.6 The addition of an auxiliary power supply point (APSP) and permanent compound area at the village of Helpston is required to maintain the power supply for signalling equipment and act as a back-up system in case of power supply failure. 3 The Network Rail (Werrington Grade Separation) Order December 2016 Report Summarising Consultation Undertaken 1.1.7 The Proposed Scheme comprises a number of other works including the following: Cock Lane Footbridge will be demolished and replacement with a longer, steel, ramped foot/cycle bridge approximately 20-30m to the north, to include alterations to the approach public footpath/cycleway; Brook Drain North will be relocated to the west side of the national grid pylons between Cock Lane Footbridge and the existing syphon under the ECML just north of the existing Werrington Junction; Gasworks Lane will be widened to a 3.7m wide public highway, with passing places, between Hurn Road (just to the west of the A15) and up to the existing entrance to National Grid’s facility.; A new multi-purpose bridge will be provided over both the existing GNGE lines and the new dive under lines, positioned just to the east side of the existing A15 highway bridge, to carry diverted utility services and a public footpath; and A temporary bridge will be installed spanning Marholm Brook providing access into the west work site from Stirling Way. 1.2 The Consent Process and Consultation 1.2.1 Consultation on the proposals for the Proposed Scheme was ongoing between summer 2014 and December 2016. This has involved Network Rail engaging with the local community (termed ‘community consultation’ for the purpose of this Report) and statutory consultees (‘stakeholder consultation’). 1.2.2 Community consultation took place at two stages during the development and design of the Proposed Scheme and has provided the opportunity for interested parties to provide feedback whilst the proposals were evolving. The stages of consultation with the community and stakeholders are as follows: Stage 1 – Summer 2014 Early community consultation was carried out which involved local residents, land owners living in the vicinity of the Proposed Scheme and other interested parties from the wider area. Two engineering options for the project, a flyover and dive under, were presented at this stage. Stage 2 – August-December 2016 A second stage of community consultation took place to gain further feedback on the single preferred option. 1.2.3 During August to December 2016, formal stakeholder

These closing submissions follow the format of the SS Statement of Matters. Before embarking on the exercise, however, it is worth reviewing the position now reached with respect to the objections which made the inquiry necessary. 2. All the landowners (freeholders and those with rights in land) whose interests would be compulsorily acquired under the Order have either withdrawn their objections or are imminently expected to (NHDC, EDF, AWA, NG, Prime Estates, the farm interests etc.); or have not appeared to pursue them (SITA) content, presumably, to rely on their rights under the Compensation Code. AWA are now satisfied that their interests can be secured by the Schedule 12 protective provisions; as are the other statutory utility providers EDF and NG. 3. The objections of the statutory authorities have also been withdrawn. Natural England (who did not object) are content that ecological interests affected by the Order Works, particularly in the Burymead Springs area, can be adequately conserved and protected by conditions (DM Appendix th 7: Minutes of the 11 March 2010 Area Planning Officer’s advice to Committee). The Environment Agency have withdrawn their objection having reached common ground with NR on the protective provisions in Schedule 13 (EA email th 6 May and ‘Statement of Common Ground’).

    Executive Summary and Overview by the Chief Executive

    Appendix 1: Proposed Vivacity Business Plan 24.2.1 Executive Summary and Overview By The Chief Executive The next five years is a story with two themes. The first is one of business as usual. Given the nature of our work this is not surprising. The day to day work of Vivacity remains unchanged- lending almost 1 million items through our libraries; teaching 1500 children a week to swim; providing 1million people the opportunity to take part in sport; approaching 100,000 people learning about their local heritage and 55,000 theatre tickets sold each year. The second theme is one of change brought about by opportunities. Most significantly: Development of Hampton Leisure Facilities - It is probable that the management of two new leisure facilities will be offered to Vivacity in the summer of 2013. This will generate fantastic new opportunities for people to take part and increase our turnover dramatically and hence make a significant contribution to our central support costs. This must be balanced by the knowledge that it will bring tangible risks- the business model is primarily based on the selling of gym memberships in other words a non- fixed income. It is crucial that we approach the opportunity presented by these facilities with business focus rather than being attracted by the opportunity of growth for its own sake. If these projects move forward they will become the main focus of effort in 2013 and 2014. Must Farm Finds - The long term future for the Must Farm find is far from clear. What is known is that Flag Fen offers up a medium and perhaps longer term opportunity for the preservation and presentation of these fantastic artefacts.

    Liberal Democrats Pledgebiggest Rail Expansion Since the Victorians

    Liberal Democrats pledge biggest rail expansion since the Victorians The Liberal Democrats have set out radical plans to revitalise the railways by improving and reopening rail lines and stations. The party will set up a Rail Expansion Fund of nearly £3bn from which councils and transport authorities can bid for money to pay for rail improvement and expansion projects. This fund will come from cuts to the major roads budget. Commenting, Liberal Democrat Shadow Transport Secretary, Norman Baker said: “The Liberal Democrats will transform the railways with the biggest expansion since the Victorian age. “Labour has allowed the railways to wither on the vine and punished passengers with huge fare hikes while more polluting forms of transport have got cheaper. All the while, the Tories have been sharpening the axe they will take to the transport budget. “High speed rail is hugely important, but it is only part of the 21st century rail network Britain needs. Our plans will reopen thousands of miles of track across the country and make our railway great again.” ENDS Notes to Editors The policy in brief Liberal Democrats will set up a £2.94bn Rail Expansion Fund from which councils and transport authorities can bid for money to pay for rail improvement and expansion projects. This is paid for by cutting part of the Major Roads budget. Why it is necessary Despite often stating that it is impossible to build your way out of congestion, Labour continues to pour billions of pounds into overspent major road schemes. Government analysis shows that new road schemes can increase traffic by 8-10% in a year.

    Fabian Summer Walk – Some Background Notes

    Fabian Summer Walk – Some Background Notes Alwalton – Some history Traces of early man have been found. In Roman times a building of some kind evidently existed at Alwalton, and various coins and pieces of pottery, etc., have been found. King Edred granted the land at Alwalton in 955 to his thegn Aelfsige Hunlafing. It was afterwards given to the Abbey of Peterborough, which held Alwalton at the time of the Conquest. Alwalton was listed in the Domesday Book [1086] as “Alwoltune”. It records that there were 20 households with a population between 70 and 100. In the 2011 census the population was 317. Alwalton used to be in the administrative county of Huntingdonshire until 1965. Apparently locals are still fiercely loyal to the old county – or at least identify with it as a shire district, rather than Cambridgeshire.

It was used in the cathedrals at Lincoln, Peterborough, Bury St Edmunds and Ely, and in Southwell Minster, as well as many parish churches, such as Barnack. The quarry site has been identified as the Alwalton Lynch escarpment on the banks of the River Nene (which provided a convenient way of transporting the stone).
