CANAL TOWPATH IMPROVEMENTS Cllr Bampton Smith introduced the item out lining the news that City Connect had placed on the reserve list the planned scheme of canal towpath improvements between Hebden Bridge & Todmorden. This was confirmed by Cllr Young. Reid Anderson spoke on behalf of cyclists stating that Calderdale should get its fair share of the scheme when City Connect had consulted in the area. Of the Borough Council on the area four had received all the funding that they required and only Kirklees had had scheme placed on the reserve list. Mr Anderson advised that the section in Calderdale placed on the reserve list was in a very poor state of repair and yet a section with a good alternative, Luddendenfoot to Hebden Bridge, was included for upgrading. The meeting discussed the suggestion that the Luddendenfoot to Hebden Bridge Section due for upgrade should be swapped for the Hebden Bridge to Todmorden section due to the alternative route being available. It was agreed that this was a poor decision and the meeting was informed that Todmorden Town Council would also be considering the issue. Cllr Scullion saw the decision as short term and that given it was taken by Officers rather than elected members accountability must be considered.
Continuing to lobby for a change is this decision is a must this to CMBC, City Connect and the West Yorkshire Combined Authority. It was moved by Cllr Scullion RESOLVED: to write to the bodies listed with our concerns. 366. ENVIRONMENT AGENCY PRESENTATION Simon Byrne of the Environment Agency outlined the developing Hebden Bridge Flood Alleviation Scheme and the Reservoirs trial that was underway to provide capacity for rainfall storage. The scheme runs from Waterside Fold to New Road Bridge on Hebden Water, and, from Stubbings to Station Road on the River Calder. It is envisaged that work will begin on the Calder in summer 2018 and in early 2019 on Hebden Water and the Canal. Simon confirmed that details for the scheme would be returning for further consultation. Cllr Fearon asked about the removal of a scheme for works at Black Pit being removed from the scheme. Cllr Scullion asked that the EA keep the public advised on the work of the National Grid when relocating sub stations, that access to the former Hebden Vale site and its future uses be closely monitored and that the EA take due regard about individual applications for planning permission and the cumulative effect they may have. 367.
