Must be my (ageing) memory playing tricks on me. I can remember there was lots of discussion about this proposed 'linking' road some 6 years or so ago. I remember I suggested (and not just me I am sure) that smart bollards could be put in place to allow through access for emergency vehicles and perhaps the 186 bus service (if it continues to exist) but which would prevent other through traffic ...

Well, let's say, just for argument's sake, that the area marked 'education' does indeed become a car park for the school. It will still involve some walking on the part of parents/carers in order to get  the children back and forth from the school and the car park.

Gatehouse consultation I asked when this was proposal was likely to have its first house ready for occupation. This is important as it is when building starts/dwellings are ready for occupation that SANGS (somewhere nearby) must exist. I was told that  the earliest this development could possibly commence would be some 18months/two years away. SANGS: I asked why there was no SANGS as part ...

I contacted Natural England the other day and asked them this: What has to come first? New houses or SANGS? this is what they said; In answer to your question – SANGs must come first, as they are an avoidance measure for recreational pressure on Annex 1 ground nesting birds under the Habitat Regulations 2010 (amended 2012) for any additional new housing.
