3. Effective
ECC previously advised vehicular access via Roman Road may not be able to meet highway standards. Needed evidence to demonstrate safe and suitable access(es), for all highway users, including pedestrians and cyclists.
Following discussions, ECC as highway and transportation authority is in principle satisfied suitable access could be achieved from Roman Road, subject to highway improvements.
Recommendations of LP TA (j.24 - need to signalise A12 off slip junction with Roman Road) justifies deletion of ‘potential’.
ECC satisfied with criterion 1.a. modification, which addresses ECC’s Reg.19 Rep 22510 and reaffirms position in Hearing Statement F121A (paragraphs 1.2-1.4).
3. Effective
ECC as highway and transportation authority has previously advised that vehicular access via Roman Road may not be able to meet highway standards, and that BBC needed to provide the evidence to demonstrate that safe and suitable access(es), for all highway users, including pedestrians and cyclists could be achieved.
Further discussions have since taken place and ECC as highway and transportation authority is in principle satisfied that a suitable access could be achieved from Roman Road, subject to highway improvements.
The recommendations of the Local Plan Transport Assessment (TA) which identifies the need to signalise the A12 off slip junction with Roman Road (junction 24 in the TA), also justifies the proposed deletion of the word ‘potential’ from this criterion.
As a result, ECC is satisfied with the proposed modified wording for criterion 1.a. of Policy E08.
This modification addresses ECC’s Reg.19 Rep 22510 and reaffirms ECC’s position as set out in its Hearing Statement F121A (paragraphs 1.2-1.4).
