Respondent: Highways Agency

Paragraphs 8.36, 8.37 and 8.38

The HA has concerns regarding the proposed new commercial activity in Rock Channel and the access arrangements to/from Rock Channel. Any further intensification of use could cause serious safety implications on the A259 trunk road.

It is noted that the Rock Channel Development Brief Supplementary Planning Document recognises that junction and road improvements will need to be implemented to serve any future development. The HA look forward to working with Rother in the development of any road/junction proposals that also address the safety concerns raised above.

Suggest including the Highways Agency in the accessibility line of the 'Lead Agencies/Partners Table' at paragraph 8.38.
