Introduction 1.1 Aims of the Study AECOM were commissioned by South Lanarkshire Council to undertake an Active Travel Feasibility Study for Strathaven, Stonehouse and the surrounding villages. The aims of the study were to identify both the physical and perceived barriers to walking, cycling and wheeling (scooter, wheelchair, buggy/pram etc.) for everyday journeys in and around the areas; to help encourage more people to choose these active travel modes; and to promote Strathaven, Stonehouse and the surrounding villages as Active Travel friendly towns. The Study will: • Identify key destinations and how well they are currently connected on foot or by bike; • Create a proposed cycle network map which connects those key destinations and shows what a complete cycle network for Strathaven, Stonehouse and the surrounding villages could look like; • Identify early priorities and recommendations to make active travel a viable option for everyday journeys in and around the Strathaven, Stonehouse and the surrounding villages. A number of similar Active Travel Feasibility Studies have previously been undertaken for other areas across South Lanarkshire. This study will use the general approach established in those studies. The results of this Study and associated consultation exercises will be utilised to inform future funding applications to implement the recommendations identified. 1.1.1 Approach The approach followed in developing the active travel network is outlined below. Technical review: • A review of the current active and leisure travel routes, key destinations and barriers to active travel. • Review of the current policy at a National, Regional and Local level along with previous studies develop a greater understanding of the overall policy context. • Review of previous Active Travel Feasibility Studies undertaken previously across South Lanarkshire Public and Stakeholder engagement: • Online Survey to collate public and stakeholder input and views • Use of the online platform Placecheck to gather views on potential desired improvements for specific locations. • A key stakeholder workshop to discuss proposals and identify priorities Network development and recommendation: Strathaven, Stonehouse and the Surrounding Villages Page 3 Active Travel Feasibility Study • Identification of a potential cycle network • Identification of other associated measures which will improve active travel and meet the needs of local communities • Identify opportunities for early implementation and proposed phasing for the network development. Feedback from Stakeholders and the Public and proposed network and priorities: • A key stakeholder workshop to discuss the results of the surveys and proposals from the initial engagement phase • An online survey to collate feedback from the general public and share proposals Figure 1: Strathaven and George Allan Park, Strathaven Strathaven, Stonehouse and the Surrounding Villages Page 4 Active Travel Feasibility Study 2. Context and Current Situation 2.1 Study Area and Local Context Figure 2: Map of study area including Strathaven and Stonehouse The study is focused on Strathaven, Stonehouse and the surrounding villages in South Lanarkshire. Figure 2 above shows the study area and where the network is being developed. Connections beyond the network boundary were also considered alongside other proposed and existing active travel infrastructure to create a coherent and connected wider network. Strathaven and Stonehouse are both situated to the South West of Larkhall in South Lanarkshire. Strathaven has a population of around 7,500, Stonehouse 5,500, and Strathaven, Stonehouse and the Surrounding Villages Page 5 Active Travel Feasibility Study are surrounded by Chapelton (640), Glassford (640), Quarter (740), Sandford and Drumclog1. The two main settlements of Strathaven and Stonehouse are connected along the A71 road corridor which connects to the M74 at the south of Larkhall. Strathaven has a thriving town centre with a range of local shops and restaurants with a medieval market square at Common Green and is located around six miles south of Hamilton, close to the Avon Water tributary of the River Clyde. There is one High School and three Primary Schools, a leisure centre, various sports clubs and a golf club. The Strathaven area has many walkways, woodlands and greenery including a large public park and Strathaven Castle. Stonehouse is a rural village also in the Avondale area and to the south of Avon Water. The village is approximately 6 miles to the south of Hamilton, east of Strathaven and south-west of Larkhall. There are a number of residential communities in Stonehouse, a small village square, several shops and businesses, pubs and restaurants, and a hospital. There are two Primary Schools, a public park and a sports ground. The National Cycle Network (NCN) Route 74 runs north-south through Stonehouse town centre connecting via quiet, rural and residential roads. Public transport in the area is limited to Whitelaw’s Coaches that enables the two settlements to connect to key destinations such as East Kilbride, and Larkhall which has the nearest rail station This Active Travel Study provides the ideal opportunity to explore the potential for an active travel network for all journeys, not only linking residential areas, places of employment, retail, education, leisure within the towns, but also linking the towns and villages to each other and to the wider transport network in this rural area. There is great potential for modal shift within the town and it is the aspiration of South Lanarkshire Council to provide a useable active travel network to make travelling actively a viable option for the residents of Strathaven, Stonehouse and the surrounding villages for everyday journeys. 2.2 Deprivation Indicators and Transport Poverty The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) provides an indication of the areas which are the most and least deprived based on a number of factors which show where people are experiencing disadvantage across

The assessment compared the available monitoring data to national air quality standards in order to identify any existing exceedences of the standards. Data was gathered from various national and local sources with regard to atmospheric emissions from: road traffic; rail; aircraft; shipping; industrial processes; intensive farming operations; domestic properties; biomass plants; and dusty processes. The screening methods outlined in the technical guidance were used to determine the likelihood that a particular source would result in an exceedence of national air quality standards. The review of new and changed emission sources identified no sources that were likely to

Introduction 1.1 South Lanarkshire Council has a statutory requirement to produce and keep up-to- date its Local Development Plan (LDP). The Main Issues Report (MIR) was published in May 2016 and contained details of the Council’s preferred development options for LDP2, and possible alternatives. The previous LDP was adopted in 2015 and is still up to date. LDP2 therefore, concentrates on those policy areas which require to be updated or amended, for example, as a result of changes to national policy or local circumstances. 1.2 The Proposed Plan represents the Council’s settled view of its policies and proposals for the development and use of land over the plan period. The development opportunities identified in the MIR were required to provide additional technical material to demonstrate that they were deliverable in the timeframe of the LDP. This is reflected in the list of proposals now identified in the Proposed Plan. In addition, account has been taken of the representations received to the MIR.

As a guarantee for what I state, I pledge myself that every piece, before being taken into stock, is subjected to a severe chemical test, which in ten seconds sets the matter at rest. I have commenced the Clothing with the fullest conviction that "what is worth doing is worth doing well," to accomplish which I shall leave " no stone untamed" to render my Establishment as much a " household word " ' for Gentlemen's Clothing as it has become for the ' Unique Shirt." I do not for a moment deny that Woaded Cloths are kept by other respectable Clothiers ; but I give the double assurance that no other is kept in my stock—a pre- caution that will, I have no doubt, ultimately serve my purpose as much as it must serve that of my Customers. Nearly 30 years' experience as a Tradesman has convinced " me of the hollowness of the Cheap" outcry ; and I do believe that most people, who, in an incautious moment, have been led away by the delusive temptation of buying ' cheap, have been experimentally taught that ' Cheapness" is not Economy.
