Assessment (TA) on behalf of City & Country Bedminster Ltd in support of a revised planning application for the development proposals known as Factory No. 1 in Bedminster, Bristol. Currently the site is a mix of office and retail, with a NIA of 7,574sqm and 983sqm respectively. The office is currently vacant however 7 out of 9 retail units are occupied. In 2016 permission was granted under references 15/04726/F and 15/04731/F for the redevelopment of the site to provide a total of 247 dwellings, to be referred to from here on as the 2016 scheme. This application seeks to amend the 2016 scheme to provide an additional 24 dwellings, with a revised total of 271 dwellings in a mix of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments. This TA serves to demonstrate that the minor amendments continue to be acceptable in terms of transportation, highway safety and access, and that it is compliant with relevant national and local planning policies. The TA has been prepared in accordance with industry standard best practice. It sets out the transport matters relating to the development site (existing conditions) and provides details of the development proposals including a review of accessibility and connectivity, an assessment of the traffic predicted to be generated by the development and the corresponding traffic impact on the surrounding local highway network. A Full Travel Plan (FTP) has been prepared in support of the scheme, which identifies measures and initiatives to encourage travel to and from the site by sustainable modes of travel. The FTP is submitted as a standalone document, and is based upon the FTP submitted and approved under the 2016 scheme. 1.2 Summary The preparation of this TA has been conducted in accordance with

  • Chew Valley Lake Recreational Trail (Northern Section)
    West of England Full Business Case Scheme: Chew Valley Lake Recreational Trail (northern section) 1 Executive Summary The Chew Valley Lake, a reservoir owned by Bristol Water (BW), has long been used for recreational fishing & sailing, under strict control. Over the last 10 years sections of the lakeside have been made accessible for walking and sections of traffic free cycling adjacent to the road. It is the ambition of Bristol Water, Bath & North East Somerset Council, Sustrans, West of England Rural Network & the local community to create a circular walking and cycling trail around the whole lake to open this natural amenity for all whilst taking account of its international, national and local landscape and wildlife designations. This trail will form part of a green active travel network in the WoE, and project within the Joint Green Infrastructure Strategy (JGIS) AONB Link Programme. This Full Business Case (FBC) seeking match funding for the northern section of the trail will enable a full circular route for walkers with significant ‘all-purpose surface’ sections suitable for wheel bound users and cyclists. A Rural Development Programme England (RDPE) grant of £506,685 for approx. 30% of the cost has been secured to be spent and claimed by July 2021. The additional funding will allow the full scheme as submitted to RDPE to be implemented enabling a high quality multifunctional accessible off -road GI route. Since the initial idea of the Chew Valley Lake Recreational Trail by Chew Valley Recreational Trail Association in 1999, there have been studies and consultations over many years leading to some sections of route being constructed, but large parts of the lake remain inaccessible to visitors.
