Highways & Transportation comment -
Need for clear, tested mitigation for impact on highway network, especially the A127 and A128.
Development on these sites will need to be viewed from a holistic perspective to ensure that they contribute to a pool of funding to provide an enhanced level of bus service to serve the 580 homes planned. It will also be important to ensure that the design layout of the sites facilitates sustainable access, ideally with bus gates or other interventions designed to maximise such access whilst giving these modes a journey time advantage.
