Representation Summary:

3. Not Effective
4. Not Consistent with National Policy

As currently drafted, criterion A.2.d. indicates that highway and other sustainable modes of travel should be identified separately. Reference needs to be made to ‘movement corridors’ rather than ‘internal highway links’ to ensure that the design of DHGV minimises the scope for conflict between pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles, as set out in paragraphs 110 and 112 of the NPPF.
