Representation Summary:

3.Not Effective

Criterion 1.a. states vehicular access via Redrose Lane or Nine Ashes Road.

ECC as highway and transportation authority has previously advised that vehicular access from Redrose Lane may not be able to meet highway standards, and it could be more appropriate to take access from Nine Ashes Road. It is now understood that a scheme can be achieved on site which provides access from Nine Ashes Road only.

Delete reference to Redrose Lane in criterion 1.a

This reflects ECC’s Reg.19 Rep 22488, paragraph 1.30 of Hearing Statement G7AN, and position in Statement of Common Ground with BBC (F17D).

3. Not Effective

Criterion 1.a. of Policy R25 states that vehicular access should be via Redrose Lane or Nine Ashes Road.

ECC as highway and transportation authority has previously advised that vehicular access from Redrose Lane may not be able to meet highway standards, and it could be more appropriate to take access from Nine Ashes Road. It is now understood that a scheme can be achieved on the site which provides access from Nine Ashes Road only.

The policy should therefore be amended to reflect this and delete reference to Redrose Lane.

This reflects ECC’s Reg.19 Rep 22488, paragraph 1.30 of its Hearing Statement G7AN, and the position in the Statement of Common Ground with BBC (F17D).
