SD4: Highway Design Considerations

The Council will support development proposals which maintain or enhance the efficient and safe operation of the highway network and which take account of the needs of all highway users for safe access, egress and servicing arrangements.

Development proposals which generate significant traffic movements must be accompanied by a Transport Assessment or Transport Statement which considers the impact of the proposal on the highway network and identifies the measures to mitigate impacts to acceptable levels. Development proposals will be supported where suitable mitigation measures identified in Transport Assessments and Transport Statements can be secured and implemented.

Relevant design and parking standards for vehicle and cycle parking within development proposals will be assessed against the Council’s current adopted guidance.
