    Appendix C of Agenda No Cabinet 14 July 2011 HS2 Formal Response to Government Consultation Warwickshire Considerations Other Issues of Importance to Warwickshire Aspects of the impact of the proposed route on Warwickshire have been considered and the information gathered is set out below under the headings of:- 1. Natural environment 2. Flood risk 3. Heritage 4. Landscape and visual impact 5. Emergency management 6. Rights of way 7. Existing road network 8. Rail enhancement 9. Agricultural land 10. Minerals 11. WCC Landholdings 12. Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber business Survey Noise is also recognised as a key issue, and is considered as part of the 51m response to the consultation. 1. Natural Environment Synopsis of Professional Discipline/field of Comment 1.1 Further work needs to be undertaken as part of Environmental Impact Assessment in order to identify the direct and indirect impact of construction upon the Natural Environment (statutory and non-statutory sites, habitats and species). This work will need to be based on up-to-date ecological data. Impact of the Proposed HS2 Route in this Area 1.2 Information available through the Warwickshire Biological Record Centre (WBRC), the Local Wildlife Sites (LWS) and Habitat Biodiversity Audit (HBA) partnerships suggest that construction would impact upon 31 LWSs and potential LWSs (pLWSs) and 13 UKBAP and/or LBAP habitat types (60ha). Indirect impacts (hydrological, vibration, noise, light and general disturbance) could include a further 75 LWSs and pLWSs and a total of 21 UKBAP and/or LBAPs (1552ha) plus a further 5 SSSIs. 60 Parish important sites have not been Cabinet/0711/ww3c 1.7.11 C1 of 34 considered by HS2 at this stage.

    UK Canal Boating Telephone : 01395 443545 UK Canal Boating Email : [email protected] Escape with a canal boating holiday! Booking Office : PO Box 57, Budleigh Salterton. Devon. EX9 7ZN. England. Warwickshire ring Rugby 14 nights Cruise this route from : Rugby View the latest version of this pdf Warwickshire-ring-Rugby-14-nights-Cruising-Route.html Cruising Days : 11.00 to 15.00 Cruising Time : 60.50 Total Distance : 105.00 Number of Locks : 121 Number of Tunnels : 6 Number of Aqueducts : 0 This route combines historic castles, like Warwick, daredevil rides at Drayton manor, toboganning or ski-ing in Tamworth, the Stairway to heaven at Hatton's 21 locks, Braunston's pretty canal village and much more. (May require a longer stay) or take a detour up the beautifully tranquil Ashby Canal if you are not stopping elsewhere. Are you looking for a holiday combining relaxing narrowboating with adventures on and off the water? One offering traditional ‘Olde English’ towns, cosmopolitan cities and memorable waterway sights? Then you will love the Warwickshire Ring. Sections of the Coventry, Oxford, Grand Union & Birmingham & Fazeley canals are components in the Warwickshire Ring which, despite the almost constant proximity of conurbation and industry, manages to carve a surprisingly rural route through manicured fields and ancient meadows for much of its length. Cruising Notes Day 1 The canal runs past Rugby through its northern side, missing the busy centre. The canal provides more striking examples of cast iron bridges and an aqueduct giving much to keep the eyes busy. The canal dips into green parkland and a golf course on the way out of Rugby, crossing over the River Avon before arriving at Hillmorton Locks.

This document sets out the preferred strategy, sites and policies for the extraction of minerals in support of sustainable economic development until 2032. Minerals are essential in supporting the development of sustainable communities and economic growth. It is critical that a sufficient supply of material is maintained in order to support the provision of houses, roads, energy and the infrastructure required in Warwickshire into the future. The sand and gravel sites put forward as preferred sites within the plan are in locations as accessible as possible to the main areas of projected development and growth. This approach limits environmental impacts and more effectively contributes to the infrastructure requirements within these areas.

It also provides the framework for minerals development management including implementation and monitoring so that any new planning applications submitted will be assessed against the most up to date policies which accord with the most recent Government guidance. What have we done so far? 1.2 Work commenced on the Minerals Core Strategy in 2006/2007. During 2008/09, there was a major amendment to the scope of Warwickshire's Minerals Core Strategy, which meant that instead of moving forward to the submission stage, it was agreed with Government Office for the West Midlands that the Issues and Options would be revisited. The Council consulted on the 'Minerals Core Strategy - Revised Spatial Options' document in February 2009. This set out three strategy options for locating new minerals development, 19 key issues and policy principles and a number of potential minerals sites submitted to the Council for possible allocation in the plan.
