    Gloucestershire Ramblers Area Highways England A417 Missing Link Public Consultation Response 0. Introduction November 2019 gloucestershireramblers.org.uk/A417 [email protected] Ramblers have been campaigning here for around 20 years for through traffic to be removed from local roads (preferably with a tunnel) to make them walkable and crossable again. The landscape would stay the same. The aims can be summarised as - Keep the Cotswold Way and Gloucestershire Way on their Authors’ line - Ensure safe footpath crossings - Retain the landmark Air Balloon Inn – a meeting place for walkers The current proposals - Divert the Cotswold Way and Gloucestershire Way - Extinguish footpath crossings - Demolish the Air Balloon. Ramblers’ Charitable Aims Defend footpaths, protect places we like to walk, improve access, let the public know what we do. In March 2018 Ramblers rejected both options 12 and 30 but offered to work with Highways England to ‘green up’ Option 30. Simplified or Greened Up Option 30 was evolved which - deletes the direct link road to Birdlip (none of the tunnel options have a link road) - keeps the roof on the tunnel as it passes below the Air Balloon car park - uses green flanked bridges where possible along the route for gain in biodiversity interconnect At no stage has taking the road below the Air Balloon site (using relatively low cost tunnelling methods such as at Hindhead) been considered as part of the consultation. In January 2019 Ramblers became concerned about the direction of proposals for the scheme & agreed that landscaping funds should be used to ‘green up’ the new road in preference to the current one.

  • Statute Law Repeals: Consultation Paper Repeal of Turnpike Laws
    Statute Law Repeals: Consultation Paper Repeal of Turnpike Laws SLR 02/10: Closing date for responses – 25 June 2010 BACKGROUND NOTES ON STATUTE LAW REPEALS (SLR) What is it? 1. Our SLR work involves repealing statutes that are no longer of practical utility. The purpose is to modernise and simplify the statute book, thereby reducing its size and thus saving the time of lawyers and others who use it. This in turn helps to avoid unnecessary costs. It also stops people being misled by obsolete laws that masquerade as live law. If an Act features still in the statute book and is referred to in text-books, people reasonably enough assume that it must mean something. Who does it? 2. Our SLR work is carried out by the Law Commission and the Scottish Law Commission pursuant to section 3(1) of the Law Commissions Act 1965. Section 3(1) imposes a duty on both Commissions to keep the law under review “with a view to its systematic development and reform, including in particular ... the repeal of obsolete and unnecessary enactments, the reduction of the number of separate enactments and generally the simplification and modernisation of the law”. Statute Law (Repeals) Bill 3. Implementation of the Commissions’ SLR proposals is by means of special Statute Law (Repeals) Bills. 18 such Bills have been enacted since 1965 repealing more than 2000 whole Acts and achieving partial repeals in thousands of others. Broadly speaking the remit of a Statute Law (Repeals) Bill extends to any enactment passed at Westminster. Accordingly it is capable of repealing obsolete statutory text throughout the United Kingdom (i.e.

There will be a second trip, to Dartmoor, on 18 September. Further details to be announced shortly. Summer solstice night walk - Monday 20/Tuesday 21 June John Wrigley writes: Weather permitting, this walk is definitely on! We will be walking in the light of a full moon to meet the Summer Solstice. See the current programme and previous e-Boot editions for additional details. Although it’s essential to bring a torch, the Black Mountains are part of an official internationally important “dark sky” area so, given a clear night, you will be walking in spectacularly bright moonlight with amazing shadows. These are some of the darkest skies in Western Europe. As I’m away for the 10 days prior to the walk, I need extra time to firm up arrangements including car sharing, so please contact me at [email protected] by June 5 if you’d like to come. The Greater Avon Valley Way Nigel Andrews writes: I have devised a new 48 mile route from Bradford- on-Avon to Portishead via Bath and Bristol. It is designed to be fully supported by public transport, with stations at Bradford-on-Avon, !1 Avoncliff, Freshford, Bath, Keynsham and Bristol and, one day, Portishead.
