This is also new: Minimising the impact of traffic 3.35 Construction traffic can be minimised by requiring developers to work together and bring construction traffic to the north as soon as feasible. Developers should work together and not unreasonably withhold agreement to allow traffic to pass over their land, if necessary subject to reasonable maintenance costs being agreed. 3.36 ...
And this is interesting: The delivery of a completed link road as described is strategically important to the sustainability of this allocation and the existing community. The Council will therefore consider the need to use Compulsory Purchase powers to ensure and if necessary accelerate its delivery. CPO powers could be used where any area of land within the allocation (which is ...
OK, so here is the nitty gritty from the DA2 report concerning the link road: Measures to accelerate delivery of the completed link road On 5 April 2016, following concerns raised including concerning traffic impacts on residential streets and safety of school children to the south of Gatehouse Farm, the Planning Committee deferred their decision on the Framework Plan. This allowed ...
This looks serious - a decision on DA2 and the Link Road is to be taken in part I (Item 7) with futher details to be held in closed session in Part II (Item 13): Agenda, reports and minutes of the Planning Committee to be held on 1 June 2016 PLANNING COMMITTEE A meeting of the above Committee which will take place on 1 June , 2016 in the Council Chamber, Council Offices, ...
It is clear Lynne than none of us have all of the answers. I do not share ND's dystopian views (although there is much to agree with in what he says about global resources and our society's race to exploit them - and the appalling vacilation on refugees) and while I do consider there to be a lurking existential element to our decision to leave or remain in the EU, without a more positive ...
Leatash, Morty, You are both right. Parking is suspended in both The Strand in Starcross and The Strand in Dawlish (times per posted notices) - but for entirely different reasons. Starcross per the Powderham bash above, but Dawlish will be having a big weekend of its own - with a number of events planned, starting on Friday 27th (before the road closure) with a charity coffee morning ...
That is interesting, Lisa. It's probably too late for DCC to change the notice type with less than one week to go - but in any case I would hope most motorists would wish to abide by the spirit of the notice and the number of signs advising 'no stopping', in order to keep traffic flowing well past the site. Let's hope also that some flexibility is employed by those marshalling the ...
This from yesterday's I newspaper:
Fred, We have already covered what the Queen's position is on the referendum, however this is what The Express quotes, hot from the UKIP battle bus tour, from Nigel Farage: "I think Boris is a very good guy. "He could be our next prime minister - if we vote for Brexit he probably will be." As for the other questions, I can only say that I believe most people are taking it very seriously, ...
In that case ND, we should perhaps let Sir Bob have the final say in the matter: ...while David Cameron may have misjudged his invocation of a Third World War, I agree with Geldof that the lessons of history should be heeded, and that the existential threats to Europe’s security would be better addressed as a united force. “I will never vote for anything that sends my children and ...
