Proposed Submission Core Strategy
Policy IM2: Implementation and Infrastructure
Representation ID: 21149
Received: 11/11/2011
Respondent: Highways Agency
PPS12 states the Core Strategy should identify what infrastructure needs/costs are required to deliver the plan. The Infrastructure Delivery Plan identifies only the BHLR, as being critical in transport terms. Delivery of the link road is currently uncertain. We are generally satisfied with the suggested framework for implementation and monitoring in the Strategy.
We recognise that many policies assume/rely on the BHLR. The funding decision will dictate the level of development. In the event that the BHLR is not funded, further work will need to be undertaken to identify revised development levels. This would provide helpful support to the Examination.
PPS12 states that the Core Strategy should identify what infrastructure needs and costs are required to deliver the plan. The Infrastructure Delivery Plan identifies only the BHLR, which would be funded by the DfT, as being critical in transport terms. Delivery of the link road is currently uncertain with the funding decision expected by the end of 2011. We are generally satisfied with the suggested framework for the implementation and monitoring strategy detailed in the Core Strategy.
We recognise that many of the Core Strategy policies assume / rely on the BHLR being constructed. The funding decision will dictate the level of development that can be provided in Rother. In the event that the BHLR is not given funding, further work will need to be undertaken to identify the revised level of development that could be provided. This would provide helpful support to the Rother Core Strategy Examination.
