Opportunity to serve on the Navigation CommitteeThe Broads Authority’s Navigation Committee is an important consultative body providing advice on key issues relating to the management of the waterways. Every four years an open process is run to select new members and now is your chance to apply to join the Committee. Applications are welcomed from individuals who have a good knowledge of the Broads and its special qualities, the navigation area, current relevant issues and the recreational uses of the Broads. A modest allowance and reasonable expenses will be paid.
Applications need to be received by 19 October 2018 and candidates will be shortlisted for interviews to be held in November. Successful candidates will stand for a minimum of four years from March 2019.
The Committee consists of 13 members appointed by the Broads Authority, of whom five are Broads Authority members and eight are appointed as a result of this process.
The Committee meets five times a year and is consulted on the level of tolls to be charged, planning applications that may significantly affect the navigation area and relevant new policies, plans and strategies.
The current Chair is Nicky Talbot and Brian Wilkins is Vice-Chair. They are also members of the Authority itself.
For full details and a copy of the application form please visit the Authority’s website at:
www.broads-authority.gov.uk/about-us/committees/navigation-committee
Broads National Park Visitor and Education Centre at Acle Bridge
Following a very successful architectural competition, which attracted 95 entries from an international field of practices, the Broads Authority now has a winning design. The competition winners were Norwich-based architectural practice, Feilden+Mawson.
The next stage is the development of a full business analysis of the potential costs and income before the Authority commits any significant expenditure or submits bids to funding bodies, which will be crucial for the project to proceed.
In the meantime, we have been investigating the costs of mooring repairs and the installation of electric charging posts.
The Authority has spent very little on the project. The three shortlisted architectural practices were each paid £1,000 to develop their stage 2 submissions for the competition.

Broads Engage workshop Accessing the Broads – priorities for action6 November 2018, 1.30-4.30pm Acle War Memorial Recreation Centre, Bridewell Lane, Acle NR13 3RA
The Broads Authority is working with Norfolk and Suffolk County Councils to maintain and improve recreational access networks and facilities in and around the Broads. This workshop will be of interest if you:
• Represent boaters, walkers, cyclists, anglers, horse riders or sightseers, when good quality and well-connected local access is important
• Represent local access providers, such as landowners or tourism businesses, and could be better supported to maintain and improve assets
• Have ideas on improving ‘access for all’, and encouraging new and infrequent users to enjoy the benefits of being out in the Broads
The workshop will explore issues such as maintaining long-distance paths, improving safety, restoring riverside access and mooring provision, and identifying project priorities, constraints and opportunities.
Please call 01603 610734 or email broadsengage@broads-authority.gov.uk to register your interest in this event.
Carbon monoxide alarm consultationComments are invited on a proposed new Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) requirement for suitable carbon monoxide alarms to be fitted to all classes of boats with accommodation. The Broads Authority is proposing to adopt the new BSS requirement from 1 January 2019.
The Boat Safety Scheme is administrating the consultation on behalf of the navigation authorities including the Broads Authority. All boat owners, craft operators, people who hire boats and members of the marine trade are encouraged to take part.
The consultation closes on 9 November 2018 and can be found on the BSS website:
www.boatsafetyscheme.org/about-us/co-alarm-consultation/
The Broads Authority’s Heritage Lottery-funded Water, Mills & Marshes project has launched ‘A Grand for a Grand Idea’, offering funding to local people and community groups. There are four key themes within Water, Mills & Marshes so all applications will be expected to contribute to one or more of the following areas:
• Encourage the use and enjoyment of Broads landscapes
• Conservation or restoration of a built heritage feature
• Protection and enhancement of Broads landscapes
• Creating or aiding an existing community group or society that helps care for the Broads
There is a total of £40,000 to be shared and there are two main routes to apply. ‘Fast Track’ can be used for projects requiring funding of between £100 and £1,000. The process is much shorter, applications are welcome at any time and are assessed by the Water, Mills & Marshes team within a month of receipt. For grants between £1,000 and £5,000 the application process is slightly lengthier as greater project detail is required.
To apply simply visit www.watermillsandmarshes.org.uk/grants

Swing bridge workshopThe downside of the long, hot summer is that there have been further frustrations for boaters resulting from rail swing bridges not being able to open to allow river traffic to pass.
The Broads Authority worked with Network Rail to host a workshop in August to discuss the challenges of bridge failures and how they might be mitigated. The meeting was well attended with representatives from the Navigation Committee, Broads Authority members and officers, Network Rail, and the boating community and associated industries.
The meeting gave everyone the opportunity to share the difficulties that bridge closures cause and learn what action is being taken. It also dispelled some myths.
A number of immediate actions were agreed to help manage the problems and minimise disruption while Network Rail prepares the case for additional funding of £80 million to replace the bridges at Reedham and Somerleyton in the long term. This has to be set in the context of a total current five-year budget of £160 million to maintain 6,000 structures across the region. The full meeting notes are available at www.broads-authority.gov.uk/swing-bridges.pdf
