South Bucks - TR10 - HEAVY GOODS VEHICLES

Policy information sourced from South Bucks District Local Plan

TR10 - HEAVY GOODS VEHICLES

Development which is likely to generate heavy goods vehicle trips will only be permitted where:

vehicle movements would not adversely affect the character or amenities of nearby properties or the locality in general, for example through noise, vibration, disturbance or visual intrusion, and the proposal would be in accordance with policy EP3 (Use, Design and Layout of Development); and
in the case of a proposal likely to generate a significant number of heavy goods vehicle trips, the access would not be onto a residential road, rural lane or other road which is not suitable in principle for such traffic, and that vehicles would be able to conveniently access the strategic highway network without using such roads; and
the proposal would comply with all other policies in this Plan. Particular attention is drawn to policies TR5 (Accesses, Highway Works and Traffic Generation) and TR6 (Traffic Calming).
