Introduction Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 The Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 (the Act) requires Local Authorities to consult with various groups of people with regard to a set of Existing Route Maps prepared for the local authority area. This has been undertaken over a 12 week period as stated in the Delivery Guidance for the Act. This report provides a summary of the findings from the recent public consultation period that was part of preparing the Existing Active Travel Maps for Anglesey. The consultation period ran from 11th August to 30th October 2015. 2. Purpose of the Consultation Isle of Anglesey County Council (IACC) is required by Welsh Government to consult on its existing Active Travel Maps. This process promotes the proposed active travel maps to the public as well as gaining opinion on the routes mapped and where routes are wanted / needed by the public. It helps Isle of Anglesey County Council to be more aware of how it is performing in terms of public expectation for walking and cycling on the island. The existing maps consultation also provides a basis on which to build for the Integrated Network Mapping process due to be complete in 2017. • Raising awareness and understanding of the Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 • Understanding community and stakeholder views on the proposals 3. Delivery Activities The following list sets out the activities that were delivered for the Existing Routes Map consultation. Overall, the activities were designed to: • Engage different stakeholder groups, including those that are harder to reach; • Engage IACC staff and Council Members • Document consultation responses and provide feedback. Delivery Activities: Make details of the draft Existing Active Travel Routes available on the IACC website throughout the consultation period 3 Send letter/email notifying consultees that documents are available on-line Issue a press release about the consultation IACC Facebook and Twitter feed throughout consultation period IACC staff and Council Members were targeted by e-mail on 9th September. Undertake a staffedpublic exhibition at the Anglesey Show which took place on the 11th and 12th August 2015. Consult with local community groups through Medrwn Môn’s project - Llais Ni. Consult with community groups through Police Diversity Unit. Consult directly with those who had asked to be consulted. 4. Supporting Documentation The following documentation was published on the IACC website during the consultation period: Information on the purpose of the consultation and a definition of Active Travel. A draft map of Active Travel Routes in Llangefni A draft map of Active Travel Routes in Holyhead and Valley Route audits for the routes audited in Llangefni and Holyhead / Valley A map showing the locations of the designated settlements on Anglesey A link to the electronic survey The above documentation was made available in both English and Welsh. 5. Note The process of both auditing existing routes and then consulting on them was carried out at a scale that reflected the level of funding that WG made available to undertake this work. There was insufficient funding to enable this authority to procure the work externally and limited staff resources to undertake the work internally. The number of routes audited which could then be consulted on was therefore a smaller number than would normally be considered desirable, and not all designated settlements have had routes audited at the time of preparing this report. Funding remaining from undertaking the process internally will be used to allow Sustrans to undertake further route audits in all settlements which will then feed into the Integrated Network Mapping process. 4 5 6 6. Consultation Responses Consultation responses were received from a range of stakeholders throughout the consultation period from a number of differing sources. These are: • Public Exhibition at the Anglesey Show on 11th and 12th August 2015 in the main Council pavilion. The Anglesey Show attracts around 60,000 visitors over the two day period. • Isle of Anglesey County Council Website • Link on Sustrans website • Facebook / Twitter It was possible for stakeholders to respond to the consultation through the use of a prepared and structured consultation feedback form, these were made available at the public exhibition and also as a response mechanism on the Council website. Assessment of Responses The Active Travel survey pages on the IACC Website received 728 unique visitors. 29 forms were completed through the Anglesey Council website. 4 forms were completed at the Anglesey Show, and 1 form and 1 other set of comments received by email. (Total of 34 responses by form.) No comments were received on Facebook. There was a twitter trail where the Council’s notice was retweeted several times. Feedback form responses: Question 1 : Do you agree that the routes identified are suitable to be promoted for Active Travel Journeys? Yes No Comments Yes 50% No 41% Comments were made as follows: they are mostly leisure routes. for active travel to be meaningful the routes need to provide people with genuine ways to get to places they need to go but without having to drive. Everything in Holyhead is easier for people on only the Morawelon side of town They are not accurate and some are merely lines marked on narrow footpaths. None of the maps cover the Amlwch or Rhosybol areas. No. As the auditing so far makes clear, and as anyone who knows what good facilities looks like can tell you, neither these routes nor any other on the island meet minimum 7 requirements for mass active travel. When these routes do allow good and safe door-to-door active travel, they will promote themselves. These routes do not yet reach the acceptable standard for active travel journeys. Also there should be some safe active travel routes in the Menai Bridge / Beaumaris / Llanfairpwll / Bangor / Caernarfon area, particularly given the large number of potential commuters and other users travelling to and from the University (including the School of Ocean Sciences in Menai Bridge) and Ysbyty Gwynedd. Why are there so few routes on Anglesey? Gaerwen requires Safe Active Travel Journeys, areas include: Chapel Street Lon Groes From Groeslon Junction down Station Road Enterprise -Zone to A5 for staff at Business Park Suitable from Valley to Holyhead, however not Valley to RAF Valley. Footpath stops at Caergeiliog, then I have to walk in road, sometimes traffic can be heavy on very windy remote road. Question 2 : Are there any problems along any of these routes that would stop you from using them? Yes The surface is in poor condition Too many barriers cause obstruction Not enough lowered (dropped kerbs) on the route to where I want to go There is not enough space for me The route is run-down and untidy It takes me a long time to cross the busy road There are not enough / benches / shelters / rest areas for me to use it often I do not feel safe No Problems Comments Yes 41% No problems 21% Responses to specific issues: The surface is in poor condition 18% Too many barriers cause obstruction 15% Not enough lowered (dropped kerbs) on the route to where I want to go 9% There is not enough space for me 9% The route is run-down and untidy 12% It takes me a long time to cross the busy road 21% There are not enough / benches / shelters / rest areas for me to use it often 9% I do not feel safe 24% Comments were made as follows: Dylsai perchnogion cwn gadw ei cwn ar dennyn ar Lon Las Cefni, a phwysicach fyth, glanhau baw ci ar ei holau. 8 Other / additional comments I'm an experienced cyclist, typically averaging 20 mph. There are v few cycle paths that are designed for use at >10 mph, let alone 15 or 20 (most are great for family rides I go on). In particular, entrances and exits are poorly signed and perpendicular to the road. They'd be great if set like a slip road geometry. Equally, the side road splay rules don't seem to apply when these paths are built. Given the lack of priority to bikes on side road junctions, poor splay really does make some of the paths an unattractive choice. Valley to HH Tesco best path on Anglesey (except for side roads and the Tesco end). Thanks for that one! i would only use them for leisure but they are not useful for getting anywhere Llangefni - It is very difficult to cross the road opposite the leisure centre due to the level of traffic an road configuration. This is further compounded by the bus stop as you may not

    ISLE OF ANGLESEY COUNTY COUNCIL Report to Executive Committee Date 14.1.2013 Subject Consultation draft Preferred Strategy Document Portfolio Holder(s) Cllr. Robert Ll. Hughes Lead Officer(s) Jim Woodcock Contact Officer Nia H Davies 01286 679890 Nature and reason for reporting To request that the Committee endorses the draft Preferred Strategy document prior to its release for consideration and approval by the Council on the 24th January 2013. A - Introduction / Background / Issues The Preferred Strategy is a vital stage in the long journey to prepare the Local Development Plan (LDP) with Gwynedd. The Strategy has been drawn-up following a number of opportunities for full participation by Ynys Mon Councillors At this stage the Council is being asked to adopt the Strategy for the purposes of public consultation. Views expressed during the public consultation period will help inform the preparation of a more detailed plan called the Deposit Plan which will set out the strategy, including strategic policies, as well as detailed planning policies. The Deposit Plan is due to be considered by Council later on in 2013. Introduction The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 requires the Council to prepare a Local Development Plan (LDP) for the development and use of land over the plan period and its policies to implement them. This Council has decided to work with Gwynedd Council to prepare a Joint LDP. Regulation 15 of the Local Development Plan Regulations requires that, before finally determining the content of its Local Development Plan (LDP) for deposit, a Council must publish its pre-deposit proposals for public inspection and comment.

  • Statement of Local Impact Report by Gwynedd Council
    Statement of Local Impact Report by Gwynedd Council 1. Introduction 1.1 On 28 June 2018 The Planning Inspectorate confirmed that Application ref. EN010007 by Horizon Nuclear Power (Horizon) for Wylfa Newydd Nuclear Power Station had been accepted for examination. 1.2 Gwynedd Council (GC) has also been notified that as a local authority it does not fall within the categories of S102(6&7) of the Planning Act 2008 given that the application site is not within its boundary nor, in the opinion of the Planning Inspectorate, is Gwynedd considered to have part of a boundary with the host authority. 1.3 Irrespective of its status under S102 (6&7) GC, based on its local knowledge and the information contained in the Development Consent Order Application, has considered the local impacts of the application upon the county, which are set out within this Statement of Impact Report dated 4 December 2018. 1.4 It is noted that GC acknowledges the potential for the Power Station to bring positive economic and social benefits to Anglesey, Gwynedd and the wider area. However, GC has consistently identified areas of concern over certain aspects of the development, which will require mitigation and/or a precautionary approach requiring further discussion and agreement with relevant bodies reflected in the final proposals. In discussion with our partners, we are not confident that significant issues related to accommodation, transport, skills and employment, the Welsh language and public services have been adequately examined and addressed. 2.

  • Community Infrastructure 13
    Background Paper 13: Community Infrastructure 13 February Gwynedd & Môn Joint Local Development Plan 2015 [Type text] Topic Paper 13: Infrastructure Background This is one of a range of topic papers prepared to offer more detailed information and explain the approach of the Plan to different topics and issues affecting the Joint Local Development Plan Area. This paper will look specifically at community infrastructure. It will explain the background which will help to identify the issues, objectives and options for the Deposit Plan. The Deposit Plan is the second statutory stage in the preparation of the Joint Local Development Plan (JLDP). The JLDP shapes the future growth of communities in the Joint Local Development Plan Area and will set out the policies and land allocations against which planning applications will be assessed. The Deposit Plan will be submitted to the Welsh Government, which will appoint an independent inspector to assess the soundness of the Plan in the Examination in Public. If the inspector considers the Plan to be sound it will be recommended for adoption. When adopted the JLDP will supersede the Gwynedd Unitary Development Plan (2009) for the Gwynedd Local Planning Authority Area and the Gwynedd Structure Plan (1993) and Ynys Môn Local Plan (1996) for the Ynys Môn Local Planning Authority. This topic paper can be read in isolation or in conjunction with the other Topic Papers and Background Papers that have been prepared to give a full picture the Joint Local Development Plan Area. You may refer to the Topic Paper as a basis for making comments about the Deposit Plan.
