Concerning air quality, the HA will need to consider whether development within the Local Development Framework (LDF) will cause a compliance problem from 2010, or make an existing forecast compliance problem worse. The HA may need to consider making representations in respect of the legality of the proposals and the soundness of the LDF.

Where the LDF relies on measures on the strategic road network, the HA may not be able to deliver these if the measures/development which they were intended to enable, would cause a compliance problem, whether or not the problem is in the vicinity of the trunk road.
