The area to the north of Round Wood and adjacent to the Powerhouse Hub will accommodate the Wellbeing Hub building. The existing Powerhouse Hub car park that currently provides 35 parking spaces will be reconfigured as part of the development. 2.2 The site of the existing Llanedyrn Health Centre, which is to be demolished, to the south of Round Wood will accommodate car parking. An area to the east of the existing Health Centre is included as part of the proposed development and will provide an additional parking area. Figure 1 Location Plan 2.3 The site is located in the Maelfa district centre that provides an important community and shopping facility for the surrounding residential areas in Llanedeyrn There is a significant regeneration of Maelfa underway that, when complete will deliver new shops, improved parking provision, pedestrian crossings and public spaces, 54 affordable homes to be managed by a housing association and 57 new, open-market, homes. 2 CC1826 Maelfa Wellbeing Centre Transport Statement 2.4 The site is in a sustainable location with a broad range of services and facilities within close proximity. This encourages linked trips and reduces the need to travel. Some of the facilities within no more than 200m of the site include: Powerhouse Hub that includes: Library service including quiet area and space for children’s events Housing, benefit and advice services Free internet and Wi-Fi access Free phones to contact Council and other services Into Work Advice and training courses IT Training Suite/ Private interview rooms Rooms for community meetings & events Modern Community Café Partner organisations providing specialist help and advice Community Hall Wellbeing Tuesday services for over 50’s Dementia Friendly Hub Youth Activities Fitness Classes Maelfa Shopping Centre that includes: Pharmacy Convenience Store / Post Office with cashpoint machine Hot food take-away Public House Active Travel 2.5 The Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation’s (CIHT) ‘Planning for Walking’ (2015) states that “Across Britain about 80 per cent of journeys shorter than 1 mile (1.6km) are made wholly on foot – something that has changed little in thirty years. In 2012 walkers accounted for 79 per cent of all journeys shorter than 1 mile, but beyond that distance cars are the dominant mode (DfT, annual)”. It is considered that 2km, a distance that can be walked in around 25 to 30 minutes, represents a reasonable distance to expect that walking can be a viable option. 2.6 Figure 2 shows the areas within 30 minutes’ walk of the application site. 3 CC1826 Maelfa Wellbeing Centre Transport Statement Figure 2 30-Minute Walk Catchment 2.7 The site is accessible to pedestrians from a footways that run alongside Round Wood. These link with the wider pedestrian network in the area that provide safe pedestrian routes between the site and the local services and facilities. Pedestrian routes that provide access to the site are generally level, of good quality and benefit from street lighting with no significant shortfalls. This ensures that the site is accessible to all, including those with movement difficulties. 2.8 There is an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing facility (dropped kerbs and tactile paving) on Round Wood adjacent to the Powerhouse Hub. This is conveniently located to cater for pedestrian movements between the new Wellbeing Centre and the Maelfa shopping centre and car parks. 4 CC1826 Maelfa Wellbeing Centre Transport Statement 2.9 There is a pedestrian footbridge that crosses over Llanedeyrn Drive immediately to the south of the Round Wood junction, linking the Maelfa district centre to the residential areas to the west. 2.10 The Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation’s ‘Planning for Cycling’ (2014) states that ‘cycle use is more seasonal than for other modes, with up to twice as many cyclists in summer compared with winter. The majority of cycling trips are for short distances, with 80% being less than five miles (8km) and with 40% being less than two miles (3km). However, the majority of trips by all modes are also short distances (67% are less than five miles, and 38% are less than two miles); therefore, the bicycle is a potential mode for many of these trips (National Travel Survey, 2013, Department for Transport).’ 2.11 There is an extensive and growing cycle network in Cardiff with proposals to develop a strategic cycle route (Enfys Route 20) along Llanedeyrn Drive. Figure 3 Cycle Network 5 CC1826 Maelfa Wellbeing Centre Transport Statement Public Transport 2.12 The application site benefits from good public transport links that provide regular and frequent bus and rail services. 2.13 The nearest bus stops to the site are located on Llanedeyrn Drive, approximately 200m walk from the site’s entrance. The bus stops provide access to the bus services listed in Table 1 below. Figure 4 Bus Stops Service Route Details 8-minute frequency 57/58 Pontprennau – City Centre Mon - Sat Culverhouse Cross - Ely - Canton - City Centre - 15-minute frequency X1 Albany Road - Pentwyn - Pontprennau Mon - Sat Table 1 Bus Services from Llanedeyrn Drive Bus Stops 6 CC1826 Maelfa Wellbeing Centre Transport Statement 2.14 The proximity of the bus stops and frequency of the bus services are factors that influence the site’s accessibility index (BREEAM Tra 01 Public Transport Accessibility Index). In this case the site’s accessibility index is calculated to be 4.66. Figure 5 BREEAM Accessibility Index Calculation Highway Network 2.15 The site is accessed from Round Wood, a cul-de-sac that is in turn accessed from Llanedeyrn Drive. A 30mph speed limit applies. 2.16 Round Wood provides access to the Maelfa district centre and a number of residential properties. It has a 5.5m wide carriageway. There are double-yellow lines along both sides of the road in the vicinity of the site. 2.17 Llanedeyrn Drive is a distributor road that serves the Llanedeyrn residential area. Immediately to the north of the Round Wood junction there is a carriageway narrowing traffic calming feature. Southbound traffic has priority with a give-way line for northbound traffic positioned opposite the Round Wood junction. 2.18 To the south of the Round Wood junction and adjacent to the Maelfa shopping centre there are bus stops on both sides Llanedeyrn Drive. Parking around the bus stops is restricted by double-yellow lines. 2.19 A review of the safety record of the highway network in the vicinity of the proposed site has been undertaken. During the latest five-year period (2014 to 2018 inclusive) there are no recorded injury accidents on Round Wood or at its junction with Llanedeyrn Drive. This demonstrates that the existing highway arrangement operates safely. 7 CC1826 Maelfa Wellbeing Centre Transport Statement Figure 6 Injury Accident Locations & Severity (2014 - 2018) 2.20 There are three slight severity accidents recorded on Llanedeyrn Drive to the south, between the Round Wood and Maelfa junctions.

  • City and County of Cardiff Council Community Review
    CITY AND COUNTY OF CARDIFF COUNCIL COMMUNITY REVIEW FINAL PROPOSALS The City and County of Cardiff Council has conducted a review of its communities in accordance with S55 and S57 Local Government Act 1972. In March 2013 the Council announced its intention to review the community boundaries within Cardiff and invited the views of interested parties. It was the Council’s aim during the course of the review to determine what changes (if any) to the boundaries, or electoral arrangements of the communities may be desirable in the interests of effective and convenient local government, and to make recommendations as appropriate to the Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales (“The Commission”) and Welsh Government. This review will be followed by a separate review of the Council’s electoral divisions, to be conducted by The Commission which will make recommendations to Welsh Government. In reviewing the electoral divisions, the Commission will take note of any changes to the communities that arise from this review. Representations to the initial review and the Council draft proposals have been received and after careful consideration, the following proposals to change the communities were agreed at Full Council on 26 March 2015: 1 Change of community name from “Gabalfa” to “Gabalfa and Mynachdy”. 2 Pentwyn/Cyncoed Boundary Change. Consequential change to corresponding Cardiff Council electoral wards. 3 Llanishen/Cyncoed Boundary Change. Consequential change to corresponding Cardiff Council electoral wards. 4 Cyncoed/Pentwyn Change. Consequential change to corresponding Cardiff Council electoral wards. 5 Creation of a new community of “Llanedeyrn” within Pentwyn electoral ward. 6 Llanrumney/Rumney Boundary Change.

Having considered all the submitted documents provided by Cardiff County Council under Regulation 15, we acknowledge the amount of work undertaken by the authority to reach this stage, including the regional collaborative working which we commend. We are aware that the authority has been involved in seeking out solutions and good practice as a member of the South East Wales LDP Pathfinder Group. We support the proposed preferred strategy in principle. The level of growth is considered to be reasonable in the light of Welsh Government projections and the supporting evidence, and the need to enable Cardiff to fulfil its role as the centre of the city region. We acknowledge the brownfield / greenfield split as reasonable and appropriate and recognise that there are significant environmental and capacity issues, including flood risk, best and most versatile agricultural land loss, infrastructure (including transport) requirement, and SSSI loss, when considering the scale of growth proposed. Clearly it will be essential to continue to develop the required robust evidence base to support the deposit LDP and evidence deliverability. It is vital that you maintain your current momentum and progress to deposit in accordance with the agreed Delivery Agreement timetable.

  • Community Review 2013 Review of the Community
    Community Review 2013 Review of the Community Boundary and Electoral Arrangements within the City and County of Cardiff Stage 2: DRAFT PROPOSALS Community Review 2013 Review of the Community Boundary And Electoral Arrangements Within The City And County of Cardiff DRAFT PROPOSALS Introduction On 1st March 2013 Cardiff Council initiated a community review to consider what changes, if any, are needed to existing community arrangements across the whole of the City and County of Cardiff. The first stage of the review, which concluded on 31st May 2013, was to ask all residents and interested parties (see Appendix A) to consider the current arrangements and submit their views of support or proposals for change. These submissions have now been reviewed and draft proposals drawn up and made available for further public consultation. The public consultation period will run from 1st August 2013 to 31st October 2013 where-upon the submissions received will again be considered and final proposals drawn up, published and adopted. Review of preliminary submissions With regard to the Terms of Reference, Cardiff Council has undertaken an unbiased analysis of all the Stage One submissions received and has made 21 proposed amendments to existing communities. For the purpose of the analysis, a community has been viewed as having a characteristic of a sense of identity that is often accompanied by a sense of separation from people living outside the area. This characteristic stems from a combination of social, economic, geographical, economic and cultural influences. Submissions have been rejected where there isn’t a clear identifiable community being proposed. The review also looked at community name changes and alterations to existing boundaries.

It is now possible to start on the foreshore and follow the route up to Llanedeyrn village. Future work will seek to further extend the trail into the countryside beyond. The Trail is mostly off-road although there are some sections sharing road space. It passes through many attractive areas. In fact, the variety is quite stunning including the coast, reed beds, lake, marsh, woodlands and scrub. It is used as a commuting route as well as for recreational purposes. As more people have become aware of the route it has become more popular. If the success of the Taff Trail is anything to go by, there is great potential for this route.
