The scheme addresses the bridge replacement requirements, congestion issues and capacity issues currently present at the junction which impact the strategic and local network. The scheme seeks to improve highway capacity and reduce vehicle delays through the construction of new widened bridges, improvements to the junction slip roads, installation of traffic signals, widening of the nearby Bloxwich Lane Junction, modifications to part of the Black Country Route along with associated landscaping and other complimentary works. A planning application for the proposed development is submitted to Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council as the Local Planning Authority seeking full planning permission for the following development: “Highways improvements at M6 Junction 10 including new widened bridges over the M6 Motorway, enhanced slip roads, improved non motorised user route through the junction, installation of traffic signals, widening of Bloxwich Lane, modifications to the Black Country Route, landscape works and associated infrastructure and engineering works.” Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council and Highways England have been committed to an active community and engagement strategy, which has comprised of discussions with key stakeholder and local residents as part of the design process for the scheme. The SCI summarises the public consultation for the proposed scheme and is structured as follows: • Section 2 – proves a description of the Site and the surrounding area; • Section 3 – sets out the statutory consultation requirements; • Section 4 – outlines the consultation undertaken; • Section 5 – Sets out the various feedback and findings of the consultation; and • Section 6 – provides a summary and conclusion. 5 2.0 Site Context 2.1 Site Location and Description The M6 is a north-south motorway linking Rugby at Junction 19 of the M1, to Carlisle where the motorway ends at the A74 (M). M6 Junction 10 has various connections comprising the A454 Black Country Route, A454 Wolverhampton Road, B4464 Wolverhampton Road West and Bloxwich Lane. The junction provides a primary access route between Walsall, Wolverhampton, and the M6 Motorway, forming a key interchange within the West Midlands region. At present the standards of the junction are varied. To the west of the junction is the A454 Black Country Route, a dual carriageway with grade separate junctions. To the east of the junction is the A454 Wolverhampton Road, a dual carriageway that passes through residential areas of Walsall. Also to the west of the junction is the B4464, a single lane road that passes through the residential area of Bentley. Bloxwich Lane feeds off the A454 Wolverhampton Road immediately east of the M6 J10 via a standard junction. The application site is located wholly within the administrative boundary of Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council and a detailed red line plan illustrating the application site boundary is provided at Figure 001. Figure 001: Red Line Boundary Surrounding uses in the immediate context of the scheme include a mixture of housing and hotel to the north-west of the site whilst to the north-east is a row of dwellings along a truncated section of Wolverhampton Road, a church, and the Pale Leaf Industrial Estate. Towards the south-east, the surrounding uses comprise hotels, a vacant development site and Alumwell Business and Enterprise College alongside playing fields. Land to the south- west includes retail outlets, housing along Bentley Mill Lane, and the Pale Leaf Industrial Estate. 6 3.0 Planning Policy Context 3.1 Introduction This section of the SCI considers the requirements for consultation for planning applications in the administrative area of Walsall Council. It sets out the legislative framework for consultation in the planning system and the policies of Walsall Council’s Revised Statement of Community Involvement 2012. 3.2 National Planning Policy Framework and Planning Practice Guidance National planning policy is contained within the National Planning Policy Framework (2012) (NPPF). The NPPF sets out the Government’s planning policies for England and how they are expected to be applied. It provides guidance for local planning authorities and decision- takers, both in drawing up plans and making decisions about planning applications. It confirms that the purpose of the planning system is to contribute to sustainable development through economic, social and environmental dimensions. The NPPF reiterates the importance of consultation as a key component part of the planning. Paragraph 188 of the NPPF states that ‘…early engagement has significant potential to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the planning application system for all parties. Good quality pre-application discussion enables better co-ordination between public and private resources and improved outcomes for the community’. Paragraph 66 of the NPPF further states at Paragraph 66 that ‘Applicants will be expected to work closely with those directly affected by their proposals to evolve designs that take account of the views of the community. Proposals that can demonstrate this in developing the design of the new development should be looked on more favourably.’ The Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) (2014) adds further context to the NPPF. It sets outs that pre-application engagement by prospective applicants offers significant potential to improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of the planning application system and improve the quality of planning applications and their likelihood of success. It confirms that this can be achieved by: • providing an understanding of the relevant planning policies and other material considerations associated with a proposed development • working collaboratively and openly with interested parties at an early stage to identify, understand and seek to resolve issues associated with a proposed development • discussing the possible mitigation of the impact of a proposed development, including any planning conditions • identifying the information required to accompany a formal planning application, thus reducing the likelihood of delays at the validation stage. 7 • putting in place a Planning Performance Agreement where this would help with managing the process and agreeing any dedicated resources for progressing the application (Paragraph: 001 Reference ID: 20-001-20150326) The PPG recognises that pre-application engagement is a collaborative process between a prospective applicant and other parties, which may include the local planning authority, statutory and non-statutory consultees, elected members and local people. The parties involved at the pre-application stage will vary on a case by case basis, and the level of engagement needs to be proportionate to the nature and scale of a proposed development. Within each party involved fulfilling an important role in ensuring the efficiency and effectiveness of pre-application engagement. 3.3 Walsall Council Revised Statement of Community Involvement (2012) Walsall Council Local Planning Authority encourages developers to discuss their proposals with residents and other interested parties prior to submitting a formal planning application. The Government also encourages this approach and requires those proposing certain major developments to consult the local community before an application is made. Pre-application consultation means that issues can be discussed and solutions found, which should reduce conflict and potential delays during the formal determination period for the application. Walsall Council expects applicants when carrying out pre-application involvement with the community to ensure that: • The involvement approach conforms to the principles and approaches contained within Walsall Council’s Revised Statement of Community Involvement 2012; • Any supporting information is factually correct and addresses all planning implications of the proposal; • The results of any community involvement exercises are published and submitted with the application as part of any supporting material. The M6 Junction 10 Planning Application falls into the Tier 3 category which is defined as large

Our vision is to realise the full potential of the importance of cycling and walking to the health and wealth of the Black Country – creating more sustainable suburbs, towns and cities that are healthier, safer and more desirable place to live, work and learn. I am genuinely passionate about this issue and the opportunity to promote this ambitious campaign. As an occasional Black Country cyclist myself, I’m looking to work with other people who really know the issues and have practical ideas to boost bikes as a mainstream means of transport. The aim is to make a bike a safer and easier routine travel choice, through improved infrastructure such as cycle lanes, cycle priority and improvements at stations and other public spaces. Historically the West Midlands region has had fewer people choosing to cycle to work than other metropolitan regions - and we want to change that.
