DM 44: Servicing

Proposals for major development will be required to submit a Transport Assessment for objective review by the Council. The Transport Assessment should quantify the impacts of the proposal upon public transport, the highway network, the cycle network and upon conditions for pedestrians (See Policy DM2: Achieving Lifetime Neighbourhoods). Where multiple major developments are proposed in the area, the Council will encourage developers to cooperate to assess the cumulative impacts of the proposals upon transport.

Proposals for major development will be required to satisfactorily mitigate the impacts identified in the Transport Assessment and any others arising from the Council’s assessment of it. Mitigation measures will be required to contribute to the desirability of achieving modal shift away from private car use and should include the preparation and implementation of Travel Plans.

Proposals that fail to satisfactorily mitigate the transport impacts of development will be resisted.

Where necessary, construction logistic plans and delivery and servicing plans should be submitted with an application.
