Hi there

Following Bryan Price’s collation work and other feedback, I have been looking at the comments from the consultation on the SM masterplan, and summarise the main suggestions/comments on the maps below

-          the primary existing PROW’s within and into and out of the Sheffield Moors (especially from Sheffield) – to better show the key connections into and through the Moors (and at the same time highlight where provision is not so good/not so joined up)

-          the primary recreational/visitor facilities such as car parks, ‘gateways’ (especially those with public transport hubs like Hathersage and Grindleford), campsites, and other visitor facilities (such as Longshaw) in and around the Sheffield Moors

That this be followed by another map indicating where any new (or improved) recreational visitor facilities are suggested (like campsite at Lady Cannings Plantation; improved facilities at Redmires etc) and more particularly the overall vision for a better integrated PROW network (especially multi-user routes – bridleways) across the landscape (rather than simply the piecemeal additions shown in the current Figure 7)

            I would really welcome your views on this please

The suggestions here are that:

-          For Figures 8a and 9a there is no great visual change in the maps as they stand, and that therefore instead of having 2 maps, with different related text, just one map is produced with corresponding text for 2013 and 2028

-          Figures 9a and 9b stay the same, as the difference between 2013 and 2028 is more obvious (because of woodland creation in particular)

-          An additional map is developed that highlights how the habitat management and restoration works planned connect/will connect with the landscapes/key habitat corridors surrounding the SM area, like the river corridors from the moors into

That photos within the main document help illustrate some of the types of change planned e.g. thru the photoshop images of Burbage Valley now and some years after the plantation is felled and ‘restored’ to woodland and moorland habitats

I’d welcome your thoughts on the above at the SG on Thurs 14th Feb

Cheers, Nick
