This multiple criteria comprises of Economy, Safety, Environment, Accessibility and Social Inclusion and Integration. For the Economy criterion, Option Comparison Estimates of the refined route options were prepared and a cost benefit analysis was completed. Factors such as route option length, property acquisitions and significant structures impact on the overall costs, whilst factors such as traffic volumes, junction connectivity and delay contribute significantly to the estimation of the benefits of the scheme, and it is the relationship of the costs of the route option to the benefits of the route options that define the economic appraisal of the route option. A summary of the Economy Appraisal is included below in Section 7.2. All six route options were assessed in terms of safety benefits. An independent Road Safety Audit was undertaken for each route option to outline the impacts on road safety of the route options. A summary of the Safety Appraisal is included below in Section 7.3 and a copy of the Road Safety Audit Stage F Report (Part 1) is included in Appendix A.7.3. Under the heading of Accessibility and Social Inclusion all of the route options were assessed in terms of how they seek to resolve the transportation issues in Galway and in turn to free capacity for further improvements to the public transport network, which in turn will remove traffic from the city streets. This will allow improvement of the streetscapes to enable workers/school children to commute by walking and cycling, thereby reducing the very high percentage of short commutes by providing a safe environment for such a change in behaviour. A summary of the Accessibility and Social Inclusion Appraisal is included below in Section 7.4. All six route options were also assessed under the heading of Integration. All decisions must align with Government Policy to ensure that the project is in line with land use integration, geographical integration and other Government policies. Route options which provide resolution of the transportation issues in Galway must be compatible with the Government’s objectives in National, Regional and Local policy documents. Transport integration aims to provide improved road linkages between key centres, improved connectivity between roads and other modes, improved public transport, and improved access to other transport infrastructure such as ports and airports. A summary of the Integration Appraisal is included below in Section 7.5. Environment encompasses many disciplines, with the emphasis and importance of the different disciplines varying depending on the particular discipline. A ranking assessment methodology was adopted for each of the environmental specialist assessments within the Environment criterion. Human Beings, Ecology, Landscape and Visual, and Material Assets – Non Agricultural are significant disciplines under GCOB-4.04-009 | Issue 1 | 16 March 2016 | Arup Page 429 Galway County Council N6 Galway City Transport Project Route Selection Report the Environment criterion. The Environmental Appraisal is included below in Section 7.6 . A summary of the overall appraisal of the Stage 2 Route Options using the five criteria is included in the Project Appraisal in Section 7.7 below. For the Stage 2 assessment, the options are assessed in three sections. The location of the breakline between Section 1 and Section 2 used for the Stage 1 assessment has been moved eastwards to the Galway City boundary. Section 1 extends from the R336 to the Galway City boundary and Section 2 extends from the Galway City boundary to the existing N6 in the east of the city. An additional break down at the N6 tie-in at Coolagh has been incorporated in order to compare the junction layouts at the N6 tie-in for the Stage 2 assessment. This section is referred to as Section 3. These junction layouts are shown on Figures 7.2.2 to 7.2.5 . 7.1.1 Option Development 7.1.1.1 Outcomes of Public Consultation No. 2 Public Consultation No. 2 took place on 28 and 29 January 2015 and on 3 and 4 February 2015 at the Westwood Hotel, Galway and the Menlo Park Hotel, Galway respectively. An overview of this consultation is included in Section 6.2 of this report with full details of the consultation and submissions received from the public included in Appendix A.6.1 . Following the public consultation, the display material was made available for inspection in the project office for four weeks. During this time, multiple consultation meetings were convened with concerned residents, key stakeholders, residents associations and various other interested parties. This consultation facilitated the dissemination of information and allowed members of the public to make informed submissions on the route selection process. The closing date for submissions on the route options was 6 March 2015. Approximately 1,000 submissions were received via email, post or in person. The general consensus of the submissions was as follows: 1. Habitats have been given more importance than people – the impact of the route options on people’s homes and on communities is too great; 2. We need a solution to the congestion but public transport can solve this congestion; and 3. 2006 GCOB scheme should be considered. Each submission was catalogued and circulated to team members for consideration as part of the Stage 2 route option assessment. In addition, the route options were reviewed in detail to establish whether improvements could be made to the Stage 1 Route Options in order to address the concerns as noted in the submissions above. 7.1.1.2 Stage 2 Route Options This section details the major amendments and alterations made to the route options between Stage 1 which are outlined in Section 6.1 and Stage 2.

  • Flood Analysis of the Clare River Catchment Considering Traditional Factors and Climate Change
    Flood Analysis of the Clare River Catchment Considering Traditional Factors and Climate Change AUTHOR Pierce Faherty G00073632 A Thesis Submitted in Part Fulfilment for the Award of M.Sc. Environmental Systems, at the College of Engineering, Galway Mayo Institute of Technology, Ireland Submitted to the Galway Mayo Institute of Technology, September 2010 .... ITUTE Of TECHNOLOGY DECLARATION OF ORIGINALITY September 2010 The substance of this thesis is the original work of the author and due reference and acknowledgement has been made, when necessary, to the work of others. No part of this thesis has been accepted for any degree and is not concurrently submitted for any other award. I declare that this thesis is my original work except where otherwise stated. Pierce Faherty Sean Moloney Date: 1 7 - 01" 10__ Abstract The main objective of this thesis on flooding was to produce a detailed report on flooding with specific reference to the Clare River catchment. Past flooding in the Clare River catchment was assessed with specific reference to the November 2009 flood event. A Geographic Information System was used to produce a graphical representation of the spatial distribution of the November 2009 flood. Flood risk is prominent within the Clare River catchment especially in the region of Claregalway. The recent flooding events of November 2009 produced significant fluvial flooding from the Clare River. This resulted in considerable flood damage to property. There were also hidden costs such as the economic impact of the closing of the N17 until floodwater subsided. Land use and channel conditions are traditional factors that have long been recognised for their effect on flooding processes.

  • Forest Perspectives Seeing the Woods for the Trees: the History Of
    IRISH FORESTRY 2015, VOL. 72 Forest Perspectives ________________________ Seeing the woods for the trees: the history of woodlands and wood use revealed from archaeological excavations in the Irish Midlands Ellen OCarrolla* and Fraser J.G. Mitchella Keywords: Archaeology, charcoal, pollen, wood usage, woodland change. Introduction Wood has always been a key raw material in the manufacture of furniture, tools, containers and nearly all everyday items (O’Sullivan 1994). Wood and its byproduct charcoal, have been used as fuel for everyday use in Ireland in the past and have been extremely important raw materials both economically and culturally up to recent times. Consequently, the catchment area of woodlands surrounding a settlement were often exploited and managed in the past to provide essential raw materials for a community (Stuijts 2005). The study described herein aimed to reconstruct past woodland landscapes of the midlands region, as well as the anthropogenic exploitation patterns of these woodlands. Reconstructions were based on the analysis of charcoal and wood samples from archaeological excavations which were dated from the Neolithic period (5,000 years ago) to later Medieval times. Pollen cores sampled from close to the archaeological excavations were also analysed and provided complementary proxy information that helped build a picture of the past woodland history of the midlands. Study area The construction of the M6 road improvement scheme, stretching for 64 km from Kinnegad to Athlone across Counties Offaly and Westmeath, provided an opportunity to piece together the origins and species of charcoal remains. Consequently charcoal, pollen and wood from archaeological excavations were used as proxies to reconstruct the vegetation type that existed at that time (Figure 1).
