Transport Scotland ITS Directive Road Safety information Data

The ITS Directive and UK traffic and lorry parking data

The UK Department for Transport and the devolved administrations are taking an opportunity offered by the European ITS Directive to improve access to open transport-related data and encourage its reuse.  This will create new opportunities for services and research and ultimately benefit the travelling public.

All organisations which collect or create traffic and lorry parking data on any part of the UK TEN-T network may fall within the EU legislation known as the ITS Directive.  Private sector companies are entitled to charge for accessing and reusing their data.

The designated data must be made available via an access point.  The UK Department for Transport is building on the established Government open data portal www.data.gov.uk to provide this access point, rather than create a new access mechanism.  This approach will further encourage the opening up and reuse of data.  

The Delegated Regulation associated with this dataset is:
Road safety related traffic information
Council of the European Union - Commission Delegated Regulation of 15 May 2013 supplementing Directive 2010/40/EU (“the ITS Directive”) of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to data and procedures for the provision, where possible, of road safety-related minimum universal traffic information free of charge to users.

For more detailed information about the ITS Directive and how we are using it to improve access to UK traffic and lorry parking data, see https://data.gov.uk/intelligent-transport-systems

Enquiries are welcome to directive@its-uk.org.uk 
 
This data consists of:  Unplanned Events, Current Roadworks, Future Roadworks, VMS, VMS Table
This data is updated twice daily.  Accuracy is very high.  

It is generated by cameras, loops, on-road reporting by Transport Scotland officers, road works diary updated by operating companies.

Local Nature Reserve

Local Nature Reserves (LNRs) are a statutory designation made under Section 21 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949 by principal local authorities. Parish and Town Councils can also declare LNRs but they must have the powers to do so delegated to them by a principal local authority. LNRs are for people and wildlife. They are places with wildlife or geological features that are of special interest locally. They offer people opportunities to study or learn about nature or simply to enjoy it. They range from windswept coastal headlands, ancient woodlands and flower-rich meadows to former inner city railways, long abandoned landfill sites and industrial areas now re-colonised by wildlife. They are an impressive natural resource which makes an important contribution to England's biodiversity

Article 4 Direction

An Article 4 Direction is made by a Local Planning Authority and confirmed by the Government. It serves to restrict Permitted Development rights usually in Conservation Areas. The aim of an Article 4 Direction is to encourage the retention of high quality architectural features and to preserve and enhance the character and appearance of the built heritage. Enhanced planning controls are sometimes necessary because the designation of a Conservation Area only goes some way towards protecting the integrity of buildings and their character. Under the Town and Country Planning Act (General Permitted Development) Order 1995, permitted development rights enable property owners within a Conservation Area to undertake small-scale extensions and/or alterations without the need for planning permission. Where these rights are uncontrolled, unsympathetic alterations can erode the special interest of the Conservation Area. Article 4(1) Directions control changes to all elevations of a property whereas Article 4(2) Directions control changes to only "relevant" elevations of a property, these being elevations fronting a highway, including footpath, waterway or open space. As there may be some ambiguity regarding what constitutes an open space it is always advisable to check with a planning officer. This dataset is used as a planning constraint.

Scottish Wetland Inventory

This data set has been developed by assimilating spatial data from Scottish Natural Heritage. The whole country has not yet been surveyed and as a result the data set only displays known wetlands. The wetland inventory database comprises a number of fields that include the main WFD95 wetland type, the original habitat survey information and whether the wetland polygon is within a statutory designated site. The wetland typology (WFD95) is used as the main identifying field for each polygon in the inventory database.
