Frampton Cotterell and Yate – A432 Badminton Road – Yate to A4174 Ring Road, Reallocation of Road Space for Cycling, Stage 1 – Feedback Report Frampton Cotterell and Yate – A432 Badminton Road – Yate to A4174 Ring Road, Reallocation of road space for cycling, Stage 1 – Feedback Report Purpose of the report The purpose of this report is to feedback the results from the recent consultation on the proposed reallocation of road space for cycling on the A432 between Yate and the A4174 Ring Road (Stage 1). Background In June 2020 the government announced that in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic measures needed to be taken to encourage more travel by bicycle and walking. Short term temporary measures have been implemented across South Gloucestershire Council whilst longer term more permanent measures have been in development. The announcement coincided with the release of the Department for Transport Local Transport Note (LTN) 1/20 ‘Cycle Infrastructure Design’ to which all new Government funded highways projects must comply. Purpose of the Scheme The A432 Badminton Road is a key link between the A4174 Avon Ring Road and the conurbation of Yate that has been identified for improvement. The existing on-carriageway cycle facilities are well below the standards set out in the LTN. Short term trial measures with a view to becoming permanent have also been implemented on this corridor on the Station Road part of the A432 in Yate. These measures highlight and support the Council’s vision of developing a network of cycle routes throughout Yate and the wider area, in accordance with the Yate Master Plan and the developing transport policies of Central Government. The upgraded cycle route along Badminton Road would offer improvements for those cyclists already using the route and create a convenient and useable facility for residents and visitors to and from Yate, including commuters, who are new to cycling and/or seeking an alternative to driving. Proposed Scheme The proposed scheme has been broken into 4 stages: Stage 1 – Nibley Lane to Coalpit Heath Stage 2 – Coalpit Heath to A4174 Ring Road Stage 3 – Nibley Lane to Stover Road Stage 4 – Coalpit Heath Village This consultation focusses on the first stage of improvements between Nibley and Coalpit Heath. The proposals are as follows: The wide single carriageway road will be narrowed to incorporate 2m wide segregated cycle lanes in both directions. Cycle demarcation kerbing and coloured surfacing will be used intermittently to highlight the cycle facilities and deter vehicles from encroaching the cycle lane. Nigel Riglar, Director for Environment and Community Services Streetcare, Transport and Waste, Design & Operations Team, P O Box 1954, Bristol, BS37 0DD 1 Tel: 01454 868004 E-mail: [email protected] www.southglos.gov.uk The junction at Mayshill will be altered to accommodate the wider facilities. The existing underused bus laybys at Mayshill will be removed in order to retain a pedestrian refuge crossing point. The speed limit of the road will be reduced to 30mph temporarily with a view to becoming permanent in order for the reallocation of space to meet the requirements set out in LTN1/20. The existing southbound vehicle activated 40mph warning sign located between Nibley and Mayshill will be replaced with a new one reflecting the revised speed limit. The existing northbound vehicle activated 40mph warning sign located between Coalpit Heath and Mayshill will be replaced with a new one reflecting the revised speed limit. The narrowed road width of 6.30 metres (3.15 metres in each direction) available to motorised vehicles will contribute to the reduction in speed. Consultation Consultation took place between 16 November 2020 and 4 December 2020. Details of the proposals including a plan and statement of reasons were posted on the South Gloucestershire website. The Council sent letters advising of the consultation to all properties affected by the proposals. In addition, notices were posted and maintained in the area for the 3 week consultation period. Local members, the parish councils and emergency services, amongst other statutory stakeholders were invited by email to view the consultation. Feedback from the consultation There were 67 individuals and organisations that responded to the consultation via the questionnaire and six other responses. The comments received as part of the consultation have now been reviewed. The comments/concerns received via the online questionnaire can be found in appendix A, all other comments received are included in appendix B. Support for the scheme from was received from Westerleigh Parish Council and also Dodington Parish Council. An access issue to an existing access at Mays Hill was raised and the replacement of a short length of stepped cycle lane with an advisory cycle lane will be necessary due to unresolvable constraints. Questionnaire The respondents were asked to fill out a questionnaire. Figures 1 - 2 show the results from the questionnaire. Question 1 asked respondents how about they are associated with the route. 66% (44) responded that they driver along the route. 58% (39) responded that they cycle along the route. 27% (18) responded that they are visitors from outside the area, 22% (15) responded they are pedestrians and 10% (7) responded they are residents along the route. Question 2 asked how often respondents travel along the route. 33% (22) responded a few times a week. 22% (15) responded a few times a month. 19% (13) travel along the route several times a day. 12% (8) responded once a week. 6% (4) responded once a day and 3% (2) preferred not to say. There were no responses advising they have never used the route. An analysis of the responses has identified that out of the 44 respondents that drive along the route, 50% (22) supported the proposals, 18% (8) objected to them and 32% (14) indicated no preference.

  • 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.

The Local Plan is a set of documents (currently comprising the Joint Waste Core Strategy and Core Strategy) which will update and replace the previous South Gloucestershire Local Plan (adopted 2006) and Minerals & Waste Local Plan (adopted 2002) and will guide future planning decisions in the district. 1.2 The Local Plan ‘lead’ document is the Core Strategy. This sets out the overall development strategy for South Gloucestershire and contains the strategic planning policies to deliver that strategy. As the strategic component of the Local Plan, the Core Strategy sets out 9 strategic objectives. These establish the basis for the policies contained in the Plan and how the Council expresses and responds to the challenge of delivering sustainable development.

  • Occasional Papers, No
    Occasional Papers, no. 46 SCUDAMORE DESCENDANTS OF CERTAIN YOUNGER SONS THAT CAME OUT OF UPTON SCUDAMORE, WILTSHIRE by Warren Skidmore Preface The Skidmores of both Somerset and Derbyshire were settled in the area surrounding the village of Wellow in Somerset from the late 15th century. A large number of descendants from around the world come from these ancestors. This family is well documented in Warren Skidmore’s “Thirty Generations”. However, where this family came from, as with the large Westerleigh, Gloucestershire branch, is unknown. Though Skidmore/Scudamore had been a local name in Upon Scudamore up to the 14th century, that branch of the family appeared to end and a cadet branch blossomed in Herefordshire. The family then reappeared in Somerset with a single mention of John Skydemor in 1441 in Dunkerton (next to Wellow) amerced in a view of frankpledge. The line that has been documented as continuous began with Robert Skydmor who is first noticed as a juror in a view of frankpledge in Wellow Hundred in 1486. Of course, this was a time before parish records were required. Unless a person is mentioned in a legal document that has survived they will not have been recorded, and it is likely that there are many people, and indeed generations, of which we do not know. Nevertheless, it does seem that the Wellow Skidmores migrated from elsewhere. The most likely place, given the size of the family there, would be Herefordshire. However, a possibility existed that they may have come from Devon. Skidmores were certainly prominent there, being farmers, clergy and lords of a manor.

In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840.
