  • Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership
    Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership ‘Call for Evidence’ Response to Gloucestershire’s Local Industrial Strategy Page 1 of 54 Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership Local Nature Partnerships (LNPs) were formed as part of the government’s 2011 white paper “The Natural Choice: Securing the value of nature”1. As part of a framework to strengthen local action to achieve the recovery of nature, LNPs were tasked to raise awareness about the vital services and benefits that a healthy natural environment brings for people, communities and the local economy. LNPs were to contribute to the green economy and complement Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs), of which there is an expectation from government for LNPs and LEPs to form strong links that capture the value of nature. Here in Gloucestershire, the LNP is formed of over 30 organisations from public, private and third sector bodies from across the county, all working together as an informal partnership to recognise the importance of embedding nature's value in local decisions for the benefit of the nature, people and the economy. The GLNP Mission is to champion the essential role of Gloucestershire’s natural environment in sustaining a vibrant, healthy, prosperous economy and society. With a Vision of a healthy and valued natural environment, sustaining the economy and wellbeing of Gloucestershire. Our partnership provides a strong and innovative voice for the environment sector and is seen as a key partner in helping deliver the Gloucestershire County Council’s Strategy 2019-20222. We benefit from a solid working relationship with GFirst LEP, as well as all the District Councils.

  • In 1968. the Report Consists of the Following Parts: L the Northgate Turnpike Roads 2 Early Administration and the Turnpike Trust
    Reprinted from: Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Journal for 1971 pages 1-58 [This edition was reprinted in 1987 by the Author in Hong Kong with corrections and revised pagination] THE NQRIH§AIE.IHBNBlKE N SPRY For more than one hundred and seventy years the road from the city of Gloucester to the top of Birdlip Hill, and the road which branched eastwards from it up Crickley Hill towards Oxford and later London, was maintained from the proceeds of the various turnpikes or toll gates along it. This report examines the history and administration of these roads from their earliest period to the demise of the Turnpike Trust in l87l and also details excavations across the road at Wotton undertaken in 1968. The report consists of the following Parts: l The Northgate Turnpike roads 2 Early administration and the Turnpike Trust 3 Tolls, exemptions and traffic 4 Road materials 5 Excavations at Wotton 1968 I Summary II The Excavations III Discussion References 1 IHE.NQBIH§AIE.BQADfi The road to Gloucester from Cirencester and the east is a section of the Roman road known as Ermine Street. The line of this road from Brockworth to Wotton has been considered to indicate a Severn crossing at Kingsholm one Km north of Gloucester, where, as late as the seventeenth century, a major branch of the river flowed slightly west of modern Kingsholm. The extent of early Roman archaeological material from Kingsholm makes it likely to have been a military site early in the Roman period. (l) Between Wotton Hill and Kingsholm this presumed line is lost; the road possibly passed through the grounds of Hillfield House and along the ridge, now marked by Denmark Road, towards the river.

  • Air Quality Action Plan 2011
    Environment Act 1995 Air Quality Action Plan 2011 Birdlip – Air Balloon Roundabout COTSWOLD DISTRICT COUNCIL Executive Summary Producing an Action Plan is a requirement of the Environment Act 1995. It follows the work carried out to assess the air quality in the area around the Air Balloon junction and the consideration of whether compliance with the air quality objectives, as set out in the Air Quality Regulations 2000 and Air Quality (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2002 have been achieved. The Air Quality in the area around the Air Balloon junction is not meeting the national air quality objectives for Nitrogen Dioxide pollution. |n developing the Action Plan various options that could impact on the area and the air quality within the Air Quality Management Area at Birdlip have been considered. In addition, the cost effectiveness of each action has been considered and the options have been ranked them according to effectiveness. This Action Plan was consulted on with residents and relevant organisations over the Summer of 2011, and the responses received have been reflected in the final version of the Action Plan. There are three properties of concern within the AQMA with permanent residents (or the potential for permanent residents). There are at least three residents in the two Air Balloon Cottages and at present there are no permanent residents in the Air Balloon Pub but there is potential for this to change in the future A Further Assessment carried out in 2010 included a source apportionment assessment and identified that within the AQMA nitrogen dioxide concentrations on both the A417 westbound and A417 southbound are substantially influenced by HGV vehicles.

The route is a key link between the West Midlands and London and is used daily by more than 34,000 The Problem 4 vehicles. The ‘Missing Link’ is often very heavily congested and there are frequent accidents, affecting people across Gloucestershire and further afield. What We Want / The Solution 6 Gloucestershire County Council has consistently campaigned for something to be done to address the problem, which is seriously affecting our local economy and, more importantly, people’s safety. Recent 8 The Economic Impact fatalities on the ‘Missing Link’ are a tragic reminder of why we need to act now. The A417 loop scheme, the only workable solution to this problem, is not currently included in any 10 Connectivity Research in Gloucestershire 2013 national infrastructure delivery programme despite more than 20 years of investigations. We’ve worked with the Highways Agency (HA) which has invested its time and money into finding the 11 Case Study right solution – now we need that solution to be implemented. Gloucestershire is firmly behind the A417 Loop scheme.

Highways England – Creative BSR18_0036 A417 Missing Link About the A417 Together, the A417 and A419 through the Cotswolds make up one of the south west’s most important road corridors, helping people get to work and school and visit family and friends. But there’s a problem. While most of the route is dual carriageway, there’s one section that isn’t. Known as the ‘Missing Link’, this 3-mile stretch of single carriageway on the A417 between the Brockworth bypass and Cowley roundabout restricts the flow of traffic, causing congestion and pollution. Congestion can be so unpredictable that some motorists rat run along local roads, affecting the communities along these routes.
