Yorkshire Dales - conflict and resolution

The Swinden Quarry is a source of both visual and environmental pollution. Measures have been put in place to minimise this and the long-term restoration of the site is also being considered. Tourists can cause problems for local farmers and other land users. Some areas suffer from overcrowding during the tourist season and the related issues of traffic build up and pollution. It is part of the National Park Management Plan to consider different users and apply measures to resolve conflict.
