1 BEDFORD & MILTON KEYNES June 2008 Volume 6 No 2 WATERWAY TRUST First Structure To Be Built Next year could see the construction of what will be the first concrete structure to form part of the waterway. The proposed A421 dual carriageway runs from M1 junction 13 to Bedford and crosses the route of the waterway at right angles near Stewartby lake. The elevated road had the potential to cause a major barrier to the development of the waterway but thanks to some careful negotiation by the Trust and our partners a major new underpass, in the form of a 30metre long tunnel has now been incorporated into the design of the new road. This exciting development was facilitated by Renaissance Bedford who brokered the agreement of the 3 local authorities to unlock 250,000 from the regional Growth Area Fund (GAF) to secure its construction. The Trust s Senior Implementation Officer, Richard Wood said 250k is a considerable sum and gets us off to a fantastic start. It represents not only a serious capital investment but an investment of faith in the project and a real endorsement of the fact that we have moved the perception of the waterway parks from a pipedream to a deliverable reality. We intend to reward and build on that faith, with the design and specification for the underpass already in the bag and ambitious plans in hand to create a new public access route and cut the channel between Stewartby Lake and Wootton. An underpass to accommodate walkers and cyclists was already planned at this point but it would only have been 2.4metres wide. Widening the tunnel to 9 metres to take the waterway (5m canal + 4m multi-access) is of course a costly exercise but it would be far more expensive to do so after the road is built. Marston Vale Eco-Town Shortlisted See centre pages for plans showing how it will affect the waterway The underpass will: Create a multi-user access corridor (1) waterway; (2) footway; (3) cycleway; including personalised low-power vehicles with full disabled access; Take Sustrans Route 51 off-road; Link Marston Vale Forest Centre Country Park with new settlements at- Wootton; Set in place a green access corridor ahead of the creation of the potential Marston Vale eco-town; Offset the dualled A421 barrier and link communities (Stewartby, Wootton, Marston Moretaine). The underpass will be of reinforced concrete and will allow a channel of 1.5m depth. We hope to consolidate this gesture of faith in the waterway by being able to dig sections of the channel within a similar timeframe to the construction of the dualled A421 and bring the walking/cycling access route element of the scheme into use as soon as possible, but if this doesn t prove possible in the short term, it will be backfilled until this stretch of the waterway can be completed.
2 View From the Chair Update June 2008 The Bedford & Milton Keynes Waterway is a planned 24km brand new broad waterway set in a green corridor from the Grand Union canal in central Milton Keynes to the River Great Ouse in Bedford, and the Fenland Waterways beyond. The Waterway will deliver sustainable recreational, leisure, economic, environmental and quality of life benefits to inhabitants and visitors alike. Thanks to local partners, the first piece of construction has just been designed and funded a 30 metre tunnel which will take the Waterway and a multi-user path safely under the new A421 dualling outside Bedford. Work starts in ! Planning We ve achieved our goal of getting the Waterway into all relevant local plans. The Waterway is in the Milton Keynes local plan and Milton Keynes Partnership Business Plan, and planning permission was secured in June 2007 for the first 6km in Milton Keynes. It is also in the draft East of England Regional Spatial Strategy, Renaissance Bedford s Infrastructure Plan, and the draft Local Development Frameworks for Bedford and Mid- Bedfordshire. It is also included in the emerging Milton Keynes and Bedfordshire Green Infrastructure plans, and the Environment Agency s Water Recreation Strategy. Almost all the route is in the hands of local authorities and a few developers, and the Government Department for Communities and Local Government has provided a secondee to support work on land ownership and planning at the Bedford end. Technical feasibility/design British Waterways have created a line and level design for the whole route, and an outline design for the first 6km in MK. The Waterway is designed to enhance flood warning and flood risk management. The road improvements at M1 Junction 13 and A421 dualling provide opportunity for efficient joint development. Last year the Milton Keynes Waterway Park section of the project was one of just eleven projects rated, after rigorous appraisal, as fundable by the BIG Lottery. This shows how robust the scheme is. We scored particularly well on sustainability, meeting need, community and stakeholder/partner support and involvement. Stakeholder & Community involvement/governance The project is driven by the voluntary Trust which acts as an enabler, maximising partner and community involvement in developing a Waterway for All that will be a source of pride now and for generations to come. The Trust works with a 26-strong partnership of local authorities, user groups, agencies and sponsors. The partners strategy is to construct the Waterway in small sections as opportunities and funding become available, and pass long-term maintenance of the Waterway to partner/s with relevant expertise. In Milton Keynes a Project Group consisting of the Trust, the Council, British Waterways and the MK Parks Trust has been set up, and similar Groups will be set up for Bedford and the Vale. Fundraising to design and build The total cost of the project is estimated in the region of 180m. Funding is being sought from enabling development and from a range of local, regional and national sources, charities, local businesses, and the public. The project is divided into an A-Z of smaller projects, each of which makes sense on its own. A new short DVD setting out the business case for the Waterway will be available on our website soon see for all the latest details. Jane Wolfson Trust 3 year objectives A Strengthen the Trust 1.

4 Marston Vale Eco Town The Marston Vale Eco-town has been shortlisted for Government approval. It was one of 15 such schemes across the country and within the next 6 months the Government will approve up to 10 eco towns to be built. The Marston Vale project stretches from Brogborough to the Forest Centre. It s described as Look carefully at the picture from the masterplan below and you will see a narrowboat gliding across the lake. An inclusive and selfsustaining community, creating around 15,000 dwellings, a district centre, long term employment opportunities, schools, health and community facilities A major feature is a waterway running through the centre, joining Brogborough and Stewartby Lakes. If approved, the Eco-Town could provide the first section of navigable channel along the B&MK route. Masterplan looking from Brogborough towards Stewartby Not everyone is in favour of the scheme however, and It remains to be seen what the level of local opposition is likely to be. One local resident who came on the Walk the Route day said Ideally we don t want The Vale to be developed but realistically we know it will be. If it has to be developed we would much rather see a scheme like the Eco-Town than one that just has wall to wall housing
5 Talks We are very pleased to announce that our small band of speakers has recently been increased by the addition of Hilary Goldsmith and Mark Rainer, who live near Cambridge and are already spreading the word in that area and on the River Ouse. We welcome them and look forward to their support. Our best thanks for holding the fort so nobly go to Rodney Evans and David Fowler, with some support from John Hodgson. David is continuing his links with Westfield Middle School and has hopes of visiting other local schools soon. Rodney s latest talk was on board narrowboat Elizabeth of Glamis in Cosgrove where his audience of 20 were from the Southern Canals Association. All members signed the petition and the deputy editor of Canal Boat magazine expressed an interest in writing a major feature on B&MK soon. We send our best wishes to another stalwart, Paul Leech, and wish him a speedy return to good health. We would still be very happy to add new members to the talks team and would welcome requests for talks from any groups/associations. Contact John and Sally Gunning (Talks Organisers) on for further information. Hilary and Mark join the team An unusual venue for a talk 6
6 AGM This year s AGM was well attended and as part of the formal business a vote of thanks was given to Ian Clifton, the Trust founder chair who retired earlier this year. Ian Clifton receiving a gift from Jane Wolfson After a break for refreshments Pat Willoughby, a director of David Locke Associates, gave an outline of the O+H plans for the Marston Vale Eco Town. New DVD Launched The Trust s new DVD was launched at a meeting of the Bedford Business Club on 15th May. Walk The Route Some 60 or so members and local residents set out to walk 4 miles of the route from Brogborough to the Marston Vale Forest Centre on Sunday 27th April. This was the third of such walks and means that over the years we have now covered the whole route. The event was superbly organised by Jenny and Andrew Eardley with assistance from David Fowler and John & Sally Gunning. Richard Wood nobly drove the borrowed minibus to take people back to the start. The walk started at Brogborough village hall and took us past the Roundhouse with its association with Oliver Cromwell, before descending Brogborough Hill and through the valley to Lidlington where there was a brief stop for refreshments. On again alongside the railway track we reached The Forest Centre where the B&MK exhibition was on show along with the model of the Brogborough Whirl. Last year, Patrick Hall M.P joined the walk and he fully intended to this year. Unfortunately at very short notice he was needed to take part in a BBC Breakfast debate so he sent his apologies via his wife. Patrick has offered to host a fund raising event on July 17th and to invite the waterways minister, Jonathan Shaw. Thanks to our official photographer, Keith Malone for recording the event and supplying these pictures The first screening of the DVD The DVD describes the route and makes the case for businesses to support the project. Trust member David Marks supplied a helicopter for some aerial filming and once again Kevin Whately agreed to be the front man. The DVD features a jigsaw map of the route and after the filming Kevin Whately added his signature. The jigsaw will be auctioned at the fundraising day planned for July. Kevin Whately signs the jigsaw 7
