North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

1 Introduction

1.1 Overview Engie Ltd. on behalf of North East Lincolnshire Council has commissioned Ove Arup and Partners Limited (‘Arup’) to undertake an infrastructure study for North East Lincolnshire. This Study was initially undertaken in late 2015/early 2016, and published alongside the Local Plan Consultation Draft in February 2016. Since this date North East Lincolnshire Council has made minor amendments to its overall housing distribution, and therefore re-commissioned Arup in August 2016 to review the Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) to reflect the changes arising from the new distribution profile. As such this document reflects these changes. The purpose of this study is to provide a technical evidence base document to inform the production of the Council’s Draft Local Plan. The specific role of this document is to offer certainty regarding the level and type of infrastructure required to deliver the planned level of housing and employment growth proposed within the Local Authority’s administrative boundary. The National Planning Policy Framework and National Planning Practice Guidance requires Local Plans to positively plan for development and infrastructure required in the area to meet spatial objectives. Local Planning Authorities must progress a proportionate evidence base for infrastructure which assesses the quality and capacity of various forms of infrastructure. North East Lincolnshire is an area of much diversity and opportunity. It is situated on the east coast of at the mouth of the Humber Estuary, covering an area of 74 square miles (192 square km). The challenge for North East Lincolnshire is to provide sufficient infrastructure within the Local Authority area to support the proposed level of housing and employment growth, within the context of the following three drivers for infrastructure provision and demand:  An ageing population with sharp declines in the number of residents in the 5 – 15 and 30 – 40 age brackets, which the Local Plan is seeking to reverse through improvements in training and employment opportunities.  A strengthening employment base with significant investment in off-shore wind operation and maintenance activities at the Port of .  The unavoidable impacts of climate change associated with North East Lincolnshire Council’s proximity to the Humber and North Sea. By engaging the views of expert stakeholders, such as specialist officers within North East Lincolnshire and cross-boundary statutory providers, the Infrastructure Delivery Plan assesses the suitability of the existing infrastructure provision and define the infrastructure parameters required to meet the objectively assessed housing need and employment requirements within the .

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

1.2 Role of the Infrastructure Delivery Plan To achieve the overall spatial vision of the North East Lincolnshire Local Plan, including a driver to become the a nationally and internationally recognised centre for offshore renewables with elevated aspirations and greater environmental quality, the Local Authority will need to be equipped and ready for change. To align with national policy and guidance, the study considers the infrastructure requirements across the next 15 years through seeking to understand the following:  The current level of infrastructure provision within North East Lincolnshire Council (and equally whether this infrastructure is currently fit for purpose to support the existing population).  The level of planned and pipeline infrastructure provision within North East Lincolnshire.  Whether the current and planned infrastructure scheduled to be delivered will meet the requirements for North East Lincolnshire when set against the objectively assessed housing and employment needs, and the strategic aspirations of the Overall Spatial Vision. Outputs from this stage will identify whether there are any ‘gaps’ in provision.  The costs associated with planned infrastructure provision and whether there is a gap between committed, allocated and required investment.  The scale of the gap between committed, allocated and required investment in infrastructure and the potential means by which this gap could be bridged where no source has been identified. This is particularly important in light of declining council funding and infrastructure spend.

1.3 Requirement for this Study

1.3.1 National Planning Policy Framework The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) is founded on delivering and achieving sustainable development. This means supporting strong and healthy communities, protecting and enhancing our natural, built and historic environment and contributing to building a strong, responsive and competitive economy by identifying and coordinating development requirements, including the provision of infrastructure. Specifically in relation to infrastructure, the NPPF requires Local Planning Authorities to work with other authorities and providers to:  ”Assess the quality and capacity of infrastructure for transport, waste water and its treatment, energy (including heat), telecommunications, utilities, waste, health, social care, education, flood risk and coastal change management, and its ability to meet forecast demands”; and,

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

 ”Take account of the need for strategic infrastructure including nationally significant infrastructure within their areas”1. The NPPF also promotes the deliverability of planned infrastructure and timelines with which this can be brought forward. Paragraph 173 states that plans should be deliverable and sustainable development requires careful attention to viability and costs in plan-making and decision-taking. Specifically in relation to infrastructure delivery, the NPPF Paragraph 177 states that:  “It is equally important to ensure that there is a reasonable prospect that planned infrastructure is deliverable in a timely fashion. To facilitate this, it is important that local planning authorities understand borough-wide development costs at the time Local Plans are drawn-up. For this reasons, infrastructure and development policies should be planned at the same time, in the Local Plan. Any affordable housing or local standards requirements that may be applied to development should be assessed at the plan-making stage, where possible, and kept under review”.

1.3.2 National Infrastructure Plan In addition to the requirements within the NPPF, the National Infrastructure Plan (2013)2 articulates a vision to deliver joined-up infrastructure across the UK to meet sector-specific and national infrastructure needs to 2020 and beyond. The Plan identifies the priority projects supporting the policy approach and defines where finance gaps remain; it also outlines the government’s policy approach to local infrastructure. Although the National Infrastructure Plan focuses on the government’s approach to accelerating local economic growth, the Plan references the LEP Growth Deals as a fantastic opportunity to support local infrastructure for places that wish to take advantage of them. The National Infrastructure Plan is supported by a National Infrastructure Pipeline (2014), which provides a robust assessment of planned investment in large infrastructure projects and programmes across both public and private sectors to 2020 and beyond. Although produced under the 2010 to 2015 Conservation and Liberal Democrat Coalition Government, and therefore likely to be subject to a review, Table 1.1 represents very large infrastructure schemes within North East Lincolnshire.

Projects include: Ports Capital Immingham Renewable Fuels Terminal - for the import Investment of biomass for Power generation Programme Grimsby River Terminal - Supporting UK car industry.

1.3.3 National Planning Practice Guidance The National Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) provides an additional layer of guidance to national policy. In particular, the paragraph 18 of Local Plans requires Local Planning Authorities to ensure that their Local Plans are capable of delivering infrastructure and, specifically, necessitating that the ‘plan is realistic about what can be achieved and when’4. Paragraph 18 provides the following advice with regard to the assessment and ‘realistic’ provision of infrastructure:  Realistic provision of infrastructure is based on ‘identifying what infrastructure is required and how it can be funded and brought on stream at the appropriate time; and ensuring that the requirements of the plan as a whole will not prejudice the viability of development’.  Ensure early discussion with infrastructure providers to help understand their investment plans and critical dependencies. Local Enterprise Partnerships should be involved from an early stage to ensure that prospects for investment in infrastructure are made clear.  The Local Plan should make clear for at least the first five years: what infrastructure is required; who is going to fund and provide it and how it relates to the anticipated rate and phasing of development.  Where the deliverability of critical infrastructure is uncertain, then the plan should address the consequences of this, including possible contingency arrangements and alternative strategies. Whilst the detail concerning infrastructure provision can be set out within a supporting document, key infrastructure requirements on which delivery of the plan depends, should be contained within the Local Plan itself.

2 Understanding of Policy Context

2.1 Introduction The following section outlines the local planning policy context for infrastructure planning in North East Lincolnshire and strategic aspirations of the Humber Local Enterprise Partnership and the Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership.

2.2 North East Lincolnshire: Planning Policy Context

2.2.1 Adopted Planning Policy The existing Local Plan was adopted in November 2003, with a number of policies ‘saved’ in 2007. Similar to the updated vision within the emerging Local Plan, the adopted Plan sought to shape an environment to establish investor confidence and facilitate regeneration, whilst reassuring local communities that the environment and facilities they value would be protected. The 2003 Local Plan made provisions to deliver 2,000 new dwellings from 2001 to 2006, with phasing planned at the proposed Strategic Site. With regard to employment uses and employment allocations, the Local Plan sought to ensure that a sufficient supply of land for industry and commerce was available through Industrial Area allocations and Estuary Related Land.

2.2.2 Emerging Planning Policy The emerging Local Plan for North East Lincolnshire comprises the Pre- Submission Draft Local Plan, for which a period of engagement in September / October 2016 followed by submission to the Secretary of State in December 2016. The ethos of the Local Plan is to drive higher aspirations within the Authority area, by up-skilling the population, attracting greater investment and providing sufficient homes to meet objectively assessed need. This Infrastructure Delivery Plan is based on the growth set out in the draft Local Plan and has been prepared to support the Local Plan. The Plan seeks to deliver over 13,000 new homes up to 2032.

2.3 Cross Boundary Issues

2.3.1 Requirements The administrative boundary of North East Lincolnshire adjoins the Local Authority boundaries of , and . The National Planning Policy Framework requires Local Planning Authorities to plan strategically across local boundaries through a ‘Duty to Cooperate’5. More specifically, this requires Local Planning Authorities to work collaboratively with

other bodies and demonstrate through evidence that strategic priorities are properly coordinated and clearly reflected in individual Local Plans. Other bodies could comprise, but are not limited to, Local Enterprise Partnerships and Local Nature Partnerships, private sector bodies, utility and infrastructure providers. The provision of infrastructure for transport, telecommunications, waste management, water supply, wastewater, flood risk and coastal change, the provision of minerals and energy is identified as a strategic priority6. The Planning Practice Guidance largely reiterates the content of national policy. It further details the requirements of the Duty, by requiring Local Planning Authorities and public bodies to engage constructively, actively and on an ongoing basis to maximise the effectiveness of Local Plan preparation in the context of strategic cross boundary matters. Again, it further highlights the importance of planning for infrastructure7. Infrastructure is a key requirement of the ‘effectiveness’ element of the Local Plan test of soundness, which requires plans to be deliverable and based on effective joint working on cross-boundary strategic priorities. The involvement of infrastructure providers in local Plan preparation is critical to ensuring that Local Plans are deliverable.

2.3.2 North Lincolnshire Local Plan The North Lincolnshire Development Plan comprises the Core Strategy (adopted 2011) and the submission draft version of the Housing and Employment Land Allocation, for which a series of Proposed Main Modifications are currently at examination. The Core Strategy sought to deliver approximately 12,063 new dwellings between 2010 and 2026, with 82% of provision to be delivered within and adjacent to the Urban Area. The Core Strategy also indicates that a total of 159.5 Ha of employment land spread across Scunthorpe, Market Towns, Humberside Airport and Sandtoft Business Park. However this total does not include regionally-significant allocations at the South Humber Bank and Airfield (which are generally adjacent to the border with North East Lincolnshire), as it was not considered possible to quantify the scale or type of employment uses that were likely to come forward in these locations at the time of Plan production. In June 2013, North Lincolnshire Council consented a 1,230 acre site for the construction of the Able Logistics Park. The Park, which is directly adjacent to the , will comprise the development of offices, transport deports, warehousing, external storage, distribution, chilled and frozen logistics, vehicle storage, motel and HGV parking. Following this approval, in October 2014, the Able Marine Energy Park Development Consent Order 2014 was consented. Proposed development covers approximately 268 ha, of which approximately 122.4 ha is covered by existing consent for port-related storage, 100.3 ha is existing arable land that will be

developed for industrial use and 45 ha is reclaimed land from the estuary to provide a new quay. Associated infrastructure development comprises works to Rosper Road, the A160 and the A180 (which enter into the boundary of North East Lincolnshire), alongside a rail passing loop on the North Killingholme Branch and flood alleviation works.

2.3.3 East Lindsey Local Plan The East Lindsey Draft Core Strategy (October 2012) represents the most up-to- date planning document for the Local Authority, with the previous Local Plan adoption taking place in 1995. The Draft Core Strategy seeks to deliver approximately 2,841 dwellings between 2011 and 2028. Whilst there are no strategic employment sites planned within East Lindsey, the Draft Core Strategy identifies growth of 22 hectares spread across Alford, / , and Louth.

2.3.4 Central Lincolnshire Local Plan The Central Lincolnshire Local Plan Team is currently preparing a new single Local Plan that will replace the current Local Plans of the City of Lincoln, West Lindsey, and District Councils. The Local Plan was consulted upon at preliminary draft stage in October 2014. The Plan seeks to accommodate 36,960 new homes across the three local planning authorities and will also make the necessary formal allocations to achieve the plan’s objectives.

2.4 Sub Regional Policy

2.4.1 Humber Local Enterprise Partnership Overview The Humber Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP)’s priority is to create growth and jobs in the Humber Area across the renewable energy, logistics, ports and chemical sectors. The LEP consists of the following local authorities:  Kingston upon Hull City Council.  East Riding of Yorkshire Council.  North East Lincolnshire Council.  North Lincolnshire Council. Humber Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP), Strategic Economic Plan The Humber LEP’s Strategic Economic Plan (SEP), prepared in 2014, forms the overarching strategic document for the Local Enterprise Partnership and covers the period to 2020. One route to funding the priorities that support the SEP are Growth Deals, of which a key component is bidding for the Local Growth Fund. The Humber SEP represents a bid for £61.7m of 2015/16 from Local Growth Fund, in order to unlock an additional £192m of public and private investment in the same year.

This was to be broadly split across the following areas:  Creating an infrastructure that supports growth, £8.4m (£176.13m with other investment sources).  Supporting businesses to succeed, £12.6m (£73m with other investment sources).  A great place to live and visit, £11.75m (£663.62m with other investment sources).  A skilled and productive workforce, £8.184 (£33.91m with other investment sources); and  Flood risk and environmental management, £20.02m (£131.0m with other investment sources). Humber LEP Growth Deal Growth Deals, from the Central Government £2bn Local Growth Fund, are competitively awarded to strategic growth priorities within each LEP. The first Growth Deal was granted to the Humber LEP in July 2015 and extended in January 2015, and resulted in the LEP securing £103.7m from the Government’s Local Growth Fund, with £21.2m of new funding confirmed for 2015/16 and £60.6m for 2016/17 to 2021. Key schemes within or adjacent to the North East Lincolnshire boundary comprise:  Junction improvements, improved provision for sustainable transport, and public realm works to open up a £12m high-quality, mixed-use development on the Cartergate site, which is a key gateway site in Grimsby town centre. This will create 11,700 square meters of commercial floorspace and 275 jobs and is currently under construction;  £1m towards the funding Interchange improvements;  Package of Skills Projects to become a Centre of Excellence for Energy Skills including CATCH for specialist offshore wind training in North East Lincolnshire and creation of a new build logistics learning centre by Grimsby Institute.  RGF Humber Capital Grant Extension for job-creating business expansions.

2.4.2 Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership Overview The Greater Lincolnshire LEP’s priority is to improve the infrastructure and conditions for doing business across Lincolnshire, with a specific focus on the ports and logistics, farming, tourism and engineering sectors. The Greater Lincolnshire area was successful in securing £67.5 million of investment through a national Growth Deal bidding process in July 2014. This deal was subsequently expanded by an extra £14.8 million in January 2015.

3 Methodology

3.1 Scope of the Infrastructure Study It was agreed with North East Lincolnshire Council that the focus of this study would be the following infrastructure typologies: Table 3.1: Infrastructure Types

Report Infrastructure Types Sub-Sector Chapter 5 Transport Highways, Park and Ride, Rail (Passenger and Freight), Bus, Walking and Cycling, Ports 6 Utility Networks Electricity, Gas, Water Supply, Waste Water. 7 Telecommunications Broadband / Wi-Fi, Mobile 8 Flood Risk and Drainage Coastal, Fluvial and Surface Water. 9 Waste, Minerals and Waste Management. Recycling 10 Green Infrastructure, Open Spaces, Play Areas and Allotments. 11 Sport and Recreation Sports and Playing Pitches. 12-13 Health Health Centres and Hospitals. 14 Emergency Services Police, Fire and Rescue, and Ambulance 15 Education Primary School and Secondary School 16 Community and Cultural Cemeteries & Crematorium and Libraries

This study has utilised a combination of quantitative and qualitative sources. A number of focussed conversations with relevant officers from across the council and other key stakeholders were undertaken throughout September 2015 to explore specific issues arising from a review of the Council’s various evidence base documents. A list of all the key stakeholders has been provided in Appendix B. In addition to those contacts named in Appendix B, as part of the update to the report in 2016 further discussions were had with Martin Lear, Principal Transport Officer NELC, and Christine Scott from the NELC Education Team to understand the potential impact of the revised housing distribution pattern.

3.2 Broad Stages of Assessment This study is based on a four stage process to understand current and future infrastructure provision, taking into consideration the planned areas of growth and regeneration. This approach has made it possible to identify areas in need of further investment and potential funding mechanisms.

3.2.1 Stage 1: Confirm current Provision and if it is currently fit for purpose This identifies current infrastructure provision in North East Lincolnshire and examines whether it is adequate to meet the needs of the current population. This has been undertaken through a quantitative assessment of current infrastructure and its spatial distribution, and is principally based on an extensive review of secondary data sources. This analysis has been supplemented by discussions with key stakeholders and local service providers to understand if existing facilities are ‘fit for purpose’. This report includes a chapter on each infrastructure type, therefore stage 1 information for each infrastructure types is included in Sections 5 to 16 as indication in Table 3.1.

3.2.2 Stage 2: Planned and programmed infrastructure provision This identifies planned infrastructure provision up to 2032. It includes assessment of how planned infrastructure could itself meet any gaps in current provision. This is based on an analysis of secondary sources and discussions with stakeholders and officers. Stage 2 information for each infrastructure types is included in Sections 5 to 16 as indication in Table 3.1.

3.2.3 Stage 3: Confirm implications and any gaps in infrastructure provision to meet growth aspirations up to 2032 The study considers the infrastructure needed to support the level of growth proposed for North East Lincolnshire up to 2032. The assumed development quantities used by the study are set out in Section 4. Stage 3 information for each

infrastructure type is included in Sections 5 to 16 as indication in Table 3.1 and also included summarised in Section 18. The third stage of the assessment has been ordered using the categories of Essential and Desirable Infrastructure depending on the extent to which infrastructure is required to support growth. These categories are therefore defined as follows:  ‘Essential’ infrastructure is defined as infrastructure that is required to make development acceptable in planning terms.  ‘Desirable’ infrastructure is described as infrastructure which would improve the capacity and deliver place making benefits.

3.2.4 Stage 4: Identifies committed and potential funding sources to deliver the required infrastructure Beyond gaps in current provision, the study considers how future growth may contribute to infrastructure needs, whether planned schemes will address needs, or whether they will generate additional requirements. Stage 4 information for each infrastructure types is included in Sections 5 to 16 as indication in Table 3.1 and also included summarised in Section 18. This section of the study also reviews committed and allocated funding and establishes the cost of bridging the gap in infrastructure provision required to deliver planned housing and employment growth. This includes consideration of the mechanisms and options available to fund and deliver identified infrastructure needs.

4 Development Quantity Assumptions

4.1 Overview The study considers the infrastructure needed to support the level of growth proposed for North East Lincolnshire between now and 2032. As the emerging Local Plan is likely to be subject to some amendment, this section confirms the interim agreed assumptions for the quantum of development which will underpin the appraisal of infrastructure. The sub area shown in Figure 4.1 will be used to structure the infrastructure study. Figure 4.1: North East Lincolnshire Sub Areas

4.2 Housing The Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan 2016 indicates that the most likely housing requirement would result in a need for over 13,000 new homes up to 2032. The

The following strategic housing sites are identified in emerging Local Plan. The Strategic Sites have been considered alongside the total level of growth and also individually in Section 17. Grimsby West: proposed Local Plan allocation for 3,337 dwellings (2,713 within the plan period). Scartho Top: proposed Local Plan allocation for 1,117 dwellings. This site is partly built out. Humberston Road: proposed Local Plan allocation for 1,500 dwellings.

4.3 Employment The Pre-Submission Local Plan, 2016 indicates that the most likely employment allocation would be for a requirement that would result in a need for around 123.6ha of employment land to 2032. The figures provided in Table 4.3 below calibrate the future employment need against the potential supply of sites per settlement.

5.2 Current Infrastructure

5.2.1 Highways The highway network is vital to ensuring the competitiveness of North East Lincolnshire, by enabling access to the towns of Grimsby and Cleethorpes, the Borough’s two ports at Grimsby and Immingham and the area’s many rural settlements. Highways England is responsible for the Strategic Road Network, including the M180 (to the west of NELC), A180 (West of Pyewipe Roundabout) and A160. North East Lincolnshire Council is responsible for the local highway network, including the main A roads of A180 (East of Pyewipe Roundabout), A46, A16, A18, A1173, A1234, A1031, A1098, A1136.

5.2.2 Passenger Rail Network Rail operates and manage the rail network in the United Kingdom. Network Rail prepare Route Utilisation Strategies (RUS)8 to inform investment choices. Stations are leased to the main network operator in the area. Three franchise operates provide a range of local stopping services and services connecting North East Lincolnshire to the wider rail network. The Barton-on-Humber branch carries a Community Rail Designated Service between Cleethorpes and Barton-on-Humber. A Community Rail Designated Line runs between Barton-on-Humber and Ulceby North Junction just outside of the North East Lincolnshire administrative boundary. These designations allow a different approach to be taken to the management of the franchise, including greater freedom for train operators by working with the Community Rail Partnership. Within North East Lincolnshire there are eight rail stations providing services to stations to Manchester Airport, Lincoln and Barton upon Humber.

5.2.3 Freight Rail The Humber ports of Grimsby and Immingham have rail connections that handle over 25% of the UK’s freight tonnage. The Port of Immingham is the largest port by tonnage handled in the UK. The main imports are large bulky products that transfer onto the road and rail network. The ABP Port of Immingham Master Plan10 states that rail freight fulfils a continuing and critical role in the distribution of products to and from the Port. All rail traffic is routed via Junction (some 10 miles from the Port) and then via one of these lines:  South via Lincoln.  South west via .  The South Humber route, which connects directly to the . The Port of Immingham generates 300 rail freight movements per week as well as 30,000 vehicle movements of the port land. It includes 16 daily biomass trains to Drax, a co-fired (coal and biomass) power station. Early 2015 saw ABP Immingham operate a 100% right time railway over 1 week following investment into freight operating facility and creation of a small section of new track.

5.2.4 Bus Services In North East Lincolnshire bus services are run commercially (with the exception of one route which is run commercially, but subsidised to an extent) with Stagecoach Grimsby/Cleethorpes and Stagecoach Lincolnshire operating the majority of local services. In addition, Amvale operate a service between Grimsby and . In addition to local services, cross boundary journeys can be made to Hull (Humber Flyer), Lincoln (IC3) and Louth (IC51). The local bus network covers most of the urban areas of Grimsby & Cleethorpes and surrounding villages. There are however limited bus services operating within the rural south of the borough. There have also recently been concerns expressed over a lack of service in the evenings and on Sundays11. A new bus station has recently been completed in Grimsby Town Centre, using funding from the Local Transport Fund. This new facility includes a new state of

This route is currently subsidised by developer contributions from the Europarc scheme. There is spare capacity on most bus services within North East Lincolnshire, the exceptions being certain services travelling towards Grimsby town centre and Grimsby Institute between 8:00 and 9:00 am and services around Waltham Tollbar at school times. A number of services do not operate at school times including the 12 between New Waltham and Bradley Park and the 2 between Grimsby town centre and Europarc12. Table 5.3: Bus Services

5.2.5 Cycling and Walking Cycling There are over 60km of dedicated cycle infrastructure in North East Lincolnshire, comprising both on-road cycle lanes and off-road paths. Whilst extensive, the network has historically not always been continuous. Complementing the network of lanes and paths are junctions with Advanced Stop Lines (ASLs) and roads benefitting from Toucan crossings that permit cyclists to cross the carriageway without the need to dismount. Within Grimsby and Cleethorpes there has traditionally been a history of people cycling and walking to work. However, as personal incomes have risen over the last thirty years private motorcars have gone from being a luxury to an everyday essential and the number of people cycling has declined. Private car/van ownership within the most deprived areas of North East Lincolnshire is low with less than half of households having access to their own vehicle. This puts a greater reliance on cycling, walking and public transport to enable people to access local services and employment opportunities. Data collected from the 2011 Census shows that cycling in general is quite prevalent in this area with 4% of people in North East Lincolnshire making at least 5 “utility” cycling trips per week compared to the national average for England which is just 1.6%. 3,881 adults in North East Lincolnshire usually cycle to work13 and cycling to school is also popular, particularly at secondary schools in the area. When the data was last publically available the percentage of pupils cycling to Tollbar , New Waltham was amongst the highest in the whole country with several other schools not being far behind. Walking Provision of better access to the countryside and a well-connected footpath network is a key factor in supporting health and well-being generally across North East Lincolnshire. Walking and cycling are low cost, sustainable transport methods for local residents, however there are low levels of uptake for walking and cycling in North East Lincolnshire amongst the general population. Despite this, a significantly higher number of trips to school are taken by cycling in North East Lincolnshire than the national average14.

North East Lincolnshire currently has 208 kilometres of Public Rights of Way (PRoW) across the borough comprising 139 footpaths and 66 bridleways. These routes run through the urban area, villages and extend out into the Wolds designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) providing a diverse range of routes. There are currently no ‘Restricted Byways’ or ‘Byways Open to all Traffic’ recorded on the Definitive Map and Statement. The quality of this existing PRoW network is assessed as a ‘pass’ or ‘fail’ against measure. The figure quoted for last year was that 85% of the network passed officer inspection. The Public Rights of Way Mapping Officer identified that the remaining 15% of those pathways that ‘fail’ are affected by legal deficiencies and alignment issues and are instead designated as mapping ‘anomalies’ rather than because of quality issues.

The nearest airport is Humberside International Airport in North Lincolnshire. Manchester Airport is also accessible by direct train services from the Borough.

5.3 Fit for Purpose

5.3.1 Highways The North East Lincolnshire Council as the Local Highway Authority has assessed the performance of key junctions situated on the local highway network. The assessment results are shown in in terms of Practical Reserve Capacity (PRC) at signal junctions, which is the amount by which traffic demand can expand before the practical capacity of a junction is reached. The modelling assumes that the Practical Capacity of a junction is 90% of the total capacity the junction is designed to accommodate. Results for roundabouts are presented in Ratio of Flow to Capacity (RFC), which assumes a roundabout is at capacity at 85% of being full, which allows for an element of day-to-day variation in traffic.

Figure 5.1: Baseline Capacity of Junctions in North East Lincolnshire

Passenger Rail The following constraints and fit for purpose issues have been raised through a discussion with the NELC Highways Team:  Severe overcrowding on the East Midland commuter service from Grimsby Town to Newark / Lincoln. This service is used to access trains to from Newark Northgate. East Midland trains do not have any extra rolling stock that could be used to increase capacity on this route.  Following an improvement in capacity, by use of additional 3 car and 2 car carriages rolling stock on the Trans Pennine Trains to Manchester Airport this service provision has now been reduced. This is because the TOC reduced rolling stock levels in anticipation of franchise changes. However due to delays in the programme for awarding the new franchises TPE are now low on rolling stock. This now means 2 car carriages are used and there is a need for two services a day to split at Doncaster rather than provide a direct service to Manchester Airport.  There is an issue with the quality of rolling stock being used on passenger route in North East Lincolnshire.  There is a track speed restriction of 50mph between Doncaster and Cleethorpes. This means that trains that are capable of travelling at 85mph are

travelling at an average speed of 44mph. To improve track speeds new tracks would need to be piled into the bedrock, due to the stability of the ground in this location.  NELC would support service improvements. Currently, commuting by train within North East Lincolnshire is not seen as a viable option due to the infrequent nature of the services stopping at the intermediate stations between Habrough, Grimsby Town and Cleethorpes (Local service every 2 hours). Census 2011 data shows that for the majority of wards in North East Lincolnshire less than 1 % of the employed working age population use the train to access employment. The exception is Habrough where 4.1 – 4.5% of the employed working age population use the train to access employment. There is clearly potential to increase the use of the train if the service frequency was improved. Illustrating this point, Habrough has much greater frequency of service and is directly linked to Doncaster/Manchester and as a result records a higher usage of passenger rail.  There is currently no surface access via train to Humberside International Airport (HIA). The nearest station is located at Barnetby. Services from North East Lincolnshire to Barnetby are outlined above.  There is no direct service to London from North East Lincolnshire. Political support for these services has been identified.  Network Rail has identified the physical infrastructure between Grimsby Town and Cleethorpes as being constrained, owing to the curvature of the track, it is a single and line there are a number of level crossings along this section21.

5.3.2 Freight Rail The Freight Utilisation Strategy22 is clear that one of the key demands of the rail freight industry has been for gauge enhancement to allow greater access to the network for the increasingly common ‘high cube’ 9’6’’ W10 containers. The current W8 gauge line standard is not sufficient to transport these larger containers, as factors including bridges, tunnels, platforms and a range of other structures affect the size of container that can be transported along the line. In order for the Ports of Immingham and Grimsby to benefit from larger container vessels, gauge improvements to allow larger containers will be required on the rail network serving the south Humber Ports. This will require gauge enhancements to W10 and W12 standard between Immingham and Doncaster. Further strategic issues of concern to Network Rail include signalling, junction speeds and a lack of available time for maintenance access to the lines leading to Immingham. All rail freight traffic is routed through , on the South Humber route via Brigg or via Lincoln to reach the East Coast Mainline (ECML). There are also resilience issues as Immingham Port is only served by one freight route.

Over 500,000 cars arrive onto the Port of Grimsby each year generating over 57 car transporter journeys off the port each day. These journeys would reduce if the rail industry had lower freight handling charges allowing the cars onto rail on wagons and transferred to their final locations from a central rail depot. NELC are currently working closely with ABP and industry partners to investigate if handling charges could be reduced.

5.3.3 Bus Provision The main focus for NELC is to maintain the existing bus service provision. NELC are also looking at doing some minor enhancements to some of the bus corridors, such as improvement to bus shelters. There is also a proposal to continue to work with bus providers through Voluntary Bus Quality Partnerships. This would involve NELC and bus providers agreeing to both fund improvements to set routes.

5.3.4 Cycling and Walking Cycling The Cycling Strategy includes a SWOT analysis based on the current cycling provision:

Growing acknowledgement of the role of cycling Local planning may encourage development that in addressing health issues and inequalities. does not support walking or cycling trips. Integration of cycling infrastructure into new developments. Review of traffic orders Public rights of way network provides an attractive environment for leisure cycling.

Walking Through discussion with North East Lincolnshire Officers it has been identified that a number of shortfalls exist in the provision of Public Rights of Way across the local authority area. This is mainly due to ‘missing links’ in public rights of way. NELC request that developers fill ‘missing link’ or upgrade (improve surfacing) of PRoW that pass through land proposed for development. Discussions with the Public Right of Way Officer confirmed that all paths are in good condition and are regularly maintained. The Rights of Way Improvement Plan (2008) highlighted that improvements were required in North East Lincolnshire to introduce better signage and greater access to information and to reduce vandalism and dog fouling. Through discussions with the Rights of Way Officer it was confirmed that signage has been improved considerable and access to information has also improved. There are limited instances of vandalism. However dog fouling is still an issue. There is also a requirement to educate people regarding sticking to footpaths. The illegal use of PRoW by motor cycles is also a problem in North East Lincolnshire. There is a need to update the PRoW definitive map for North East Lincolnshire. It was last updated in 1953. North East Lincolnshire have been working closely with neighbouring authorities to promote cross boundary routes.

5.3.5 Ports The Port of Grimsby and Port of Immingham are operated by (ABP). Both ports are commercial operations and as such new facilities will be developed as required and in line with proposed investment. ABP have continually invested in both Ports and a number of improvements and new facilities are planned.

5.3.6 Airport There is a lack of public transport access to Humberside International Airport (HIA), with the nearest train station located at Barnetby, approximately 3 miles away from the airport. Barnetby lacks a frequent bus connection to the airport throughout the day.

5.4 Planned Schemes

5.4.1 Highways The following highway schemes are currently committed: A18 / A180 Link Road (£6.3 million)23: This scheme seeks to deliver improved road access to the Port of Immingham and surrounding industry by reducing the volume of HGV traffic travelling along Pelham Road, Immingham. This results in significant safety and environmental benefits for local residents in the town, which is currently an Air Quality Management Area. The delivery of this scheme began in March 2015 and is scheduled to take approximately one year to complete. A160 / A180 Improvements (£88 Million)24: This scheme crosses the boundary between North East Lincolnshire and North Lincolnshire. The aim of this scheme is to improve access from the A160 / A180 towards Immingham Docks. The scheme is fully funded and started on site in early 2015. The scheme includes upgrading Brocklesby interchange and dualling the A160, as well as a number of other improvements. Toll Bar, Nuns Corner, / Cambridge Junction Improvements: Provisional programme entry to the Greater Lincolnshire LEP funding stream has been granted to carry out these junction improvement. Notification is likely to be given regarding final funding approval early 2016. Work is scheduled to begin construction in 2017.

5.4.2 Passenger Rail In April 2016 the new Northern and TransPennine franchises will be managed through the Rail North governance arrangement of 29 Local Authorities across the north of England. Rail North has devolved powers from the DfT to run the two franchises, an unprecedented step from Whitehall which has taken three years to develop and continues to evolve. The Rail North franchise announced in December 2105 confirmed the below Train Operating Companies will operate in North East Lincolnshire. Rail North franchise will have implications to services serving North East Lincolnshire. The two franchise packages are: Express franchise: currently operated by Trans Pennine Express and retained by Transpennine from April 2016. Commuter franchise: currently operated by Northern Rail and operated by Arriva from April 2016.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

The new franchise is considered to provide a Transformational Rail Package. However it is not yet known what the service benefits will be for North East Lincolnshire. It is hoped that it may result in improved Sunday services. NELC officers have confirmed that North East Lincolnshire and in early discussions with Virgin Trains East Coast about the provision of direct services from Grimsby to London. There is a medium to long term aspiration for one or two services a day. Network Rail are committed to provide new signals and level crossing improvements along the route from Doncaster to Cleethorpes. This is scheduled to take place in 2016. This will benefit both passenger and freight services. North East Lincolnshire are continuing to lobby in relation to electrification of the Cleethorpes to Manchester railway line and to ensure a linkage with proposed electrification around Manchester and Liverpool. North East Lincolnshire will maintain support for a direct service to Manchester.

5.4.3 Freight Rail NELC are working with the neighbouring authorities to investigate options to deliver increased resilience of the freight line around Immingham. This could be solved by a solution outside the Borough. There is committed funding to deliver gauge improvements from Immingham to the East Coast Mainline, which will deliver a W12 standard on this full route. This is scheduled to begin in December 2016. The signal and level crossing improvements will also deliver benefits for freight rail.

5.4.4 Bus Provision There are no significant gaps in bus provision within the borough. As shown above, the urban area of Grimsby is served by more frequent bus services, however there is above target bus usage in North East Lincolnshire. Accordingly the bus network is considered fit for purpose. A small number of minor issues have been raised by the NELC transport team:  Accessing Grimsby Institute & Franklin College for evening classes by bus: From parts of the Borough it is difficult to get to the college in the evening. The Council have diverted a number of bus routes so they go via the College. The College have developed their own public access strategy, including provision of buses. NELC and the College are working together on improving access. The Wheels to Work scheme (provision of scooter) also allows residents to access training25.  , lack of bus services: There is not the critical mass of population make a bus route to Aylesby viable. NELC have created footpath / cycleway to Laceby where a half hourly service can be accessed26.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

 Accessing Immingham Docks by public transport for work: There has been a general decline in employees using buses to access the Docks, making it difficult to make a service work financially. There is currently a core hourly service from the urban area. In addition the development of the dock has resulted in jobs being dispersed across the dock, making it difficult to serve employees by bus27.

5.4.5 Walking and Cycling Cycling The Local Transport Plan 3 seeks to develop cycling provision by building on the well-established strategic route network in the area, promoting cycling as part of the tourism offer and understanding the value of cycling as a solution to tackling congestion. The Cycling Strategy has been developed based on three pillars: Build: physical infrastructure to give people places to cycle. Support: providing new or less experienced cyclists with the skills and confidence they need to make more cycle journeys. Encourage: events and marketing to persuade people to give cycling a go. These three pillars are all supported by the foundations of a Local Policy Framework that embeds cycling into the local culture. Where appropriate the Strategy will follow accepted examples of good practice such as the Sustrans Manual for cycle friendly design (2014) and the Transport for London and Cardiff Cycle design guides amongst others. A series of 11 cycling corridors have been proposed based on existing cycling patterns and approved future development. They have been set out in section 5.5.4 and they will benefit the existing population in addition to new site allocations made through the Local Plan. Walking The Rights of Way Improvement Plan (2008) sets out actions for guiding the improvement of legally defined public pathways over the next ten years in line with the priorities of the Local Transport Plan. These include ensuring that Public Rights of Way are properly maintained and well signed, whilst promoting maximum opportunities for involvement for all sections of the community. North East Lincolnshire Council bid for funding through the Local Transport Fund on a yearly basis and through the NELC Council Revenue Funding for maintenance. The funding would generally be used to:  Deliver resurfacing improvements.  Work through the backlog of case files on new claimed PRoW or instances where the PRoW are not in same position as the definitive map.  Pedestrian or bridleway bridge improvements.

There is committed central government funding to deliver a coastal route, which would pass through the Humber Bank. This is likely to link up a number of existing footpaths through upgrades. 75% of the funding for this scheme is from central government and 25% is being provided by NELC.

5.4.6 Ports The following projects are planned to improve or create new infrastructure at the Ports of Immingham and Grimsby. Real Venture 49MW biomass power station: The proposed development is located on a three-hectare brownfield site at the Port of Immingham, currently a fertiliser bagging facility that is being transformed later this year as part of a £6 million project by owner ABP. The fuel for the biomass plant would be wood discarded by the paper and construction timber industries, the facility would require up to 250,000 tonnes of forest product in pellet form from Europe, which would be brought in by boat. This scheme has started on site and Real Venture is currently seeking financial backing to continue the development of this scheme. East Gate Development: This scheme is detailed in the highway section of this report.

5.4.7 Airport NELC are currently investigating options to improve public transport access to Humberside Airport. In the short term North Lincolnshire Council have an aspiration to promote a bus connection from Barnetby28 and in the longer term considering a direct train link to the airport (by 2050)29. This is being investigated through the Humberside Airport Transport Forum and within the Surface Access Strategy (which is not a publicly available document). The North Lincolnshire Local Transport Plan 3 also includes contains a scheme to improve access to the Airport from Barnetby station as well as other highway and smart choice initiatives (e.g. car sharing)30.

5.5 Impact of Development Proposals

5.5.1 Highways The following highway schemes are considered necessary to deliver the planned level of housing employment growth in North East Lincolnshire: Humber Link Road: This link road project will develop a new road link between Hobson Way and Moody Lane, providing a new direct link between the Ports

which will improve accessibility to potential development sites, improve business efficiency in terms of travelling times and associated costs, and will reduce traffic pressures on the A180 between the Stallingborough Interchange and Pyewipe Roundabout by reduction of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGV’s). Improvements will also be made to the standard of Moody Lane, and the whole link will be of a standard to be publicly adopted upon completion, providing a new through route with unrestricted accessibility. This scheme is being funded by developer contributions, South Humber Industrial Investment Programme (SHIIP) and the Greater Lincolnshire LEP. Great Coates Interchange Improvements: in summer 2016 Highways England (‘HE’) commissioned further work undertaken by Aone to understand the exact implications of both Grimsby West and Europarc 4 on the Great Coates Interchange. This work has shown that in the base scenario there is a small amount of delay apparent, which worsens slightly once future development comes online. However, the work notes that the junction does still retain some capacity and will broadly continue to operate well. The study therefore recommends that if any intervention was to be pursued at this location, benefits should be delivered through signalisation rather than junction redesign. Notwithstanding this finding, analysis to better understand the business case suggests that the proposed benefits are insufficient to warrant being funded by Highways England. Despite this however, the study also notes that there may be benefits if improvements were to be delivered by a developer as part of a S278 Agreement. A previous HE scheme at this location was designed to increase the capacity of the Great Coates Interchange through the delivery of an improved dumbbell junction. Recognising however that the exact form and extent of both Grimsby West and Europarc 4 are not currently fixed, despite new work undertaken by Aone suggesting that the dumbbell scheme is now an unlikely requirement, this improvement may still be required should further work undertaken through the TAs for each respective development highlight impacts over and above those considered as part of the HE/Aone Study. As such the previous junction design may still need to be brought forward if work that supersedes the Aone work suggests it is still required. Irrespective of whether signalisation or a new junction configuration is pursued, developer contributions will be required to fund either scheme, particularly given HE’s assessment that there is an insufficient business case to warrant HE funding. NELC will therefore work with developers, the LEPs and Highways England to deliver the signalisation scheme, or junction improvement should it prove necessary. Eastgate Link: The Eastgate project would facilitate the de-regulation of roads close to the Eastgate to enable access to and from the Port of Immingham with non-licensed vehicles. This would complement privately led investments within the Eastgate area to support off-port activities. The implementation of the project would result in improved accessibility for businesses operating outside the port area. Funding from SHIP will secure the implementation of road de-regulation. A1173 junction with Kiln Lane: The ABLE UK scheme has committed £50,000 towards this scheme. NELC are currently confirming the exact nature of the scheme

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

required to provide the capacity for the ABLE scheme and the Stallingborough Interchange employment scheme. There is potential that the scheme could equate to more than £50,000. If this was the case then additional developer, LEP or NELC funding would be investigated. Rosper Road Dualling: This involves dualling Rosper Road. The aim of the scheme is to develop a strong north-south corridor between the A160 and the development land to the north. This scheme is in the North Lincolnshire borough, however its delivery supports highways enhancements in NE Lincs. There will be a need for funding from NE Lincs to facilitate these. There is currently not committed funding for this scheme. Haven Road/Rosper Road Junction Improvements: A number of improvement works have been completed on Haven Road in recent years, but there are also proposals to improve the junction with Rosper Road by constructing a new roundabout. The primary reason for upgrading the junction is to cater for HGV turning movements, which make up a significant proportion of the overall traffic on Rosper Road. The proposed roundabout would allow HGVs to turn more easily and would also support the proposals to dual Rosper Road. There is currently not committed funding for this scheme. A160/Eastfield Road Signal Improvements: The main aim is to improve capacity at the A160/ Eastfield Road signalised junction for existing and future traffic, through minor widening to Eastfield Road. This scheme is being funded through a Section 106 agreement for the ABLE Business and Logistics Park. Chase Hill Road/ Road Junction Improvements: This scheme involves constructing a new roundabout at the Chase Hill Road/East Halton Road junction. This scheme will improve turning movements for HGVs. Eastfield Road/Chase Hill Road Junction Improvements: This involves constructing a new roundabout at the junction to replace the existing priority arrangement and will be funded through Section 106 agreements. The main reason for a new roundabout is to provide access to development land to the north. The scheme therefore includes provision for an additional fourth arm directly opposite Eastfield Road. The roundabout will help to facilitate HGV movements in this location. Grimsby West Access Road: A new road is required connecting the A1136 and Laceby / Grimsby Road. This will serve the new residential development called Grimsby West. NELC are currently working closely with the developer group for this site to consider options for delivering this scheme. This includes the potential for Greater Lincolnshire LEP funding and different levels of funding for strategic developers and plot developers. Grimsby West Link Road: A new road is required connecting the A1136 and Laceby Road. This will serve the new residential development called Grimsby West. NELC are currently working closely with the developer group for this site to understand the full need and requirement for the road, with a view to considering options for delivering this scheme should the case be justified.

Junction Improvements: The NELC Highways team are currently modelling the implications of the levels of employment and housing growth being planned for by the emerging Local Plan. This is likely to indicate the requirement for junction improvements to the following corridors:  A16 Corridor.  A46 Corridor.  A180 Corridor (west of Pyewipe Road).  A180 Corridor (east of Pyewipe Road).  A1098 Corridor.  Toll Bar (B1209) Corridor.  A1136 Corridor.  A1243 Corridor.  A1173 Corridor.  A18 Corridor.  B1219 Corridor. Following completion of the modelling proposed junction improvement schemes will be developed.

5.5.2 Passenger Rail The development proposed in North East Lincolnshire is focused on the urban area of Grimsby and Cleethorpes, which are served by passenger rail services. The current passenger rail line is not heavily used for commuting31 however there are known issues of overcrowding, particularly on the route between Grimsby and Lincoln / Newark. The proposed housing growth is likely to result in increased overcrowding at peak times on this route and on the other commuter and long distance services, particularly to Manchester Airport. A report setting out the Economic Impacts of Rail on the South Humber has been produced on behalf of NELC and North Lincolnshire Council32. This report notes the importance of the rail services being retained. It also models a number of improvements to the current service, which show that an improvement in journey times between Cleethorpes and Doncaster would yield and increase in demand and increase in GDP linked to planned employment growth.

5.5.3 Freight Rail The required gauge improvements and signal / level crossing improvements are fully funded and scheduled for completion in 2016 / 2017. There is a requirement

for the resilience of the freight network to be improved to deliver the planned level of employment growth in the Borough. Network Rail has developed a scheme that would increase capacity called the Killingholme Loop. This scheme is included in the Network Rail Freight Route Utilisation Strategy.

5.5.4 Bus Provision The Local Transport Plan 3 includes potential funding for creation of park and ride facilities to serve Grimsby and Cleethorpes. However, NELC have had feasibility studies and this has shown it is not considered viable or feasible to deliver park and ride sites in Grimsby. Developer contributions (CIL or S106) can be used to fund new bus routes or provide improvements to bus infrastructure (bus shelters). They can also be used to improve access from new housing site to the nearest bus stop.

5.5.5 Cycling and Walking Cycling The development of new cycling infrastructure will be dependent on a range of matters, however the starting position will be that cyclists are to share the carriageway with other vehicles unless there is an overriding requirement to remove them or where off carriageway provision confers some additional advantage for cyclists over other traffic. The Local Plan will support proposals to link existing Green Infrastructure and as such these new connections will support healthy living by connecting routes for cycling and walking. A series of 11 cycling corridors are proposed through the Cycling Strategy, based on existing cycling patterns and approved future development. As new significant developments come forward through allocation through Local Plan or a planning application it may be appropriate to review and revise these corridors as in the case of the proposed Grimsby West site. The 11 proposed corridors are:  Route 1: Europarc to Grimsby Town Centre.  Route 2: Stallingborough to Grimsby Town Centre.  Route 3: Laceby to Cleethorpes.  Route 4: Waltham to Grimsby Town Centre.  Route 5: to Cleethorpes (potentially National Cycle Network Route).  Route 6: New Waltham to Grimsby Town Centre.  Route 7: Humberston to Grimsby Town Centre.  Route 8: Cleethorpes Seafront to Grimsby Town Centre.  Route 9: Docks to Grimsby Town Centre.  Route 10: Immingham Docks (Eastgate) to Immingham Town Centre.  Route 11: Immingham Town Centre to Immingham Docks (Westgate) & Able UK development.

Each cycle corridor will be the subject of a comprehensive route assessment to highlight any changes or improvements that could be made to encourage more use. These improvements will then be prioritised and delivered in line with the availability of funding and the ability to adopt a suitable approach to address individual issues. Figure 5.1 shows the indicative long term cycle network which comprises these 11 routes plus links between them. The Cycling Strategy includes a 10 Year Intervention Plan to deliver the long term cycling network. This includes 36 schemes, which are noted in the Infrastructure Delivery Schedule at Figure 16.1. The Cycling Strategy Intervention Plan is based broadly on current levels of expenditure through Local Transport Plan and other sources. NELC will seek to work with developers to secure appropriate on-site cycling provision and financial contributions to off-site provision to ensure that sites are linked to the existing network. Figure 5.1: Proposed Long Term Cycle Network 33

Walking When planning applications are submitted to NELC, the Public Rights of Way team request that developers fill ‘missing link’ or upgrade (improve surfacing) of PRoW that pass through land proposed for development. The current condition and maintenance regime is considered to be sufficient to meet planned growth levels. The current proposed improvements are being discussed with developers.

5.5.6 Ports Future expansion of the Ports has the potential to impact on the strategic and local transport network. Previous expansion at the Port of Immingham has involved the acquisition of additional land and land reclamation from the Humber Estuary. The

continued expansion of the Ports could result in further requirements for Habitat creation if the expansion land was considered to impact on the SPA. Growth of the Ports would benefit North East Lincolnshire as a whole and support the Council’s objective to increase the resident population by providing locally accessible job opportunities34. The Ports would be expected to provide necessary infrastructure to meet the capacity needs of their development.

5.5.7 Airport The delivery of housing and employment does not directly rely on access to airports. The continued growth of Humberside Airport has the potential to support the growth of employment sectors particularly in North East Lincolnshire. This sector has been identified by the Council as a key growth sector and access to European markets and destinations makes North East Lincolnshire attractive to investors35. Humberside Airport has capacity to grow based on current constraints and infrastructure according to the analysis included in the UK Aviation Projections. This document indicating that the Airport will be dealing with between 1.4 and 3 million passengers by 205036.

5.6 Delivery and Responsibilities North East Lincolnshire Council alongside Lincolnshire LEP and Humber LEP are working closely to coordinate funding and delivery of transport infrastructure. The following main funding streams are available:  Humber and Lincolnshire LEP Funding.  Local Transport Plan Funding.  NELC Capital and Revenue Funding.  Private and Developer Contributions (S106 and CIL).  Central Government Funding, which is often available as a grant or a bid basis.  Network Rail.  Train Operating Companies.  Bus Operators.

5.7 Summary of Transport Infrastructure North East Lincolnshire Council has been very successful at accessing funding for transport infrastructure. However there does remain some gaps in funding, which are set out in Table 5.7.

6 Utilities

6.1 Information Sources This section covers the primary utility networks comprising electricity supply, gas supply, water supply treatment. The following sources of information have been used to populate this chapter: Electricity  Northern Powergrid, Long Term Development Statement (LTDS) November 2014.  Discussion with Michael Walbank, System Planning Manager, Castleford on overall approach to Northern Powergrid’s LTDS. Gas  National Grid Gas Distribution Long Term Development Plan October 2014.  Discussion with Helen Orton, Senior Design Analysis National Grid. Water Supply and Treatment  Email information from Allan Simpson, Anglian Water.

6.2 Current Infrastructure

6.2.1 Electricity The main electrical infrastructure in North East Lincolnshire is operated by Northern Powergrid and as a regional Distribution Network Operator (DNO) they are required to produce a Long Term Development Statement (LTDS) giving details of the present and proposed status of their network. This includes load forecasts for the next 5 years on their 132 kV and 66/33/11 kV equipment. Northern Powergrid, like all regional Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) is regulated by Ofgem. All DNOs install new connections on a first come, first serve basis for electricity. This means that initial developments may absorb existing capacity in an electricity substation requiring the next development to contribute towards an upgrade. This can create a disproportionate cost for the subsequent development sometimes excessively so. One of the primary purposes of this Infrastructure Plan is to identify such circumstances and provide solutions to a more equitable distribution of development costs. Previous discussions have been held with the System Planning Manager, on the interpretation of information within the LTDS and how to use it to determine capacity issues for infrastructure studies in the NPG area. The principles from this previous discussion have been applied in this study.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

The electrical supply system in North East Lincolnshire originates at the Grimsby West grid supply point where Northern Powergrid’s system meets with National Grid’s national transmission system. The supply point feeds out to a small number of 132 kV supply points which in turn feed 33/11kv primary substations around the region. 33/11kv Primary substations generally feed out to secondary (11 kV to LV) substations which connect to local homes and commercial premises. It is the lack of electricity capacity at primary substations that pose the biggest obstacles to development, as the triggering of works to upgrade or provide new primary substations can result in costs in the millions of pounds being passed on from Northern Powergrid to the developers. The primary substations feed a network of distribution substations throughout North East Lincolnshire. These distribution substations have varying capacities depending upon the extent and demands of the premises they supply. There is some competition in the provision of new connections and associated infrastructure which enables Independent Distribution Network Operators (IDNO) to design, install, own and operate independent systems. This approach can often significantly reduce capital costs for connections because IDNOs can invest in a more flexible manner than DNOs which allows IDNOs to be more commercially orientated and competitive.

6.2.2 Gas The local gas distribution network in the North East Lincolnshire area is owned by National Grid (NG) and supplied by the National Grid regional transmission network. The map of the National Grid transmission network is shown on Figure 6.1. The gas industry is regulated by Ofgem. Figure 6.1 National Grid Regional Transmission Gas Network within the North East Lincolnshire region.

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 44 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

National Grid’s local distribution network receives gas at high pressure from National Grid’s main transmission lines. The gas enters the local network at high pressure and through a series pressure reducers, governors and gasometers and increased main sizes, the pressure is adjusted for distribution to premises. Whilst National Grid owns both the transmission system and the distribution system in North East Lincs the two systems are commercially and organisationally apart and operate as completely independent companies. Figure 6.2 Beach to Meter Schematic Source: Northern Gas Networks

As the owners of the Gas Distribution Zone network in North East Lincolnshire NG are responsible only for providing the network through which gas flows. Other companies in the gas industry are responsible for gas production, gas transmission, metering and billing. NG publishes a Long Term Development Plan (LTDP) annually. This document provides a ten-year forecast of transportation system usage and likely system developments that can be used by companies contemplating connecting to the gas network, entering into transport arrangements, or wishing to identify and evaluate opportunities. It is important to note that NG’s 2014 LTDP predicts a decline in overall annual gas demand. This has been accredited to a less than favourable economic outlook and increases in UK gas prices. The latest peak demand forecast reduces by around 1.2% per year on average over a ten year period. These figures will be reviewed in the 2015 LTDP.

6.2.3 Water Supply The Anglian Water, Water Resource Management Plan (2105) was prepared over 2013/14 with input from a range of stakeholders and was effective from April 2015. It shows how the supply demand balance will be maintained over the next

25 years, as well as dealing with the longer term challenges presented by population growth, climate change and environmental needs. North East Lincolnshire is within the East Lincolnshire Water Resource Zone which extends from the Humber to the Wash. North East Lincolnshire is covered by two Anglian Water Planning Zones, PZ01 (Barnoldby) and PZ04 (Grimsby). In the northern part of the RZ, supplies are primarily groundwater abstractions from the Chalk and Sandstone There are no deficits forecast in the East Lincolnshire over the 25 year WRMP.

6.2.4 Wastewater Treatment Works Five Water Recycling Centres (WRC) are located within and serve North East Lincolnshire (shown in Table 6.1). Table 6.1: Water Recycling Centres in North East Lincolnshire

Water Recycling Centres (WRC) Settlements within Catchment -Newton Marsh , , Beelsby, Bradley, Brigsley, Cleethorpes, , Humberston, New Waltham, Tetney and Waltham East Ravendale Grimsby-Pyewipe Great Coates, Grimsby, Healing and Stallingborough Immingham New Immingham Laceby Aylesby, and Laceby

6.3 Planned and Proposed Schemes Northern Powergrid’s LTDS outlines planned upgrades that are either under construction or have received funding. None of the planned schemes are located within the North East Lincolnshire region. National Grid confirmed in September 2015 that there are no strategic planned works in the North East Lincolnshire region. In general Anglian Water’s on-going investment in Water Recycling Centres is based upon identification through the Asset Management Plan (AMP), as approved by OFWAT. We are currently working in AMP6 covering the period 2015 – 2020. Where a need for an investment has been identified for water recycling centre upgrade we consider a range of operational and capital options to determine the best delivery option.

6.4 Impact of Development Proposals The proposed developments scheduled to be constructed by 2032 will have an impact on the existing utility infrastructure in the region.

The development quanta has been converted to utility demand quanta by applying standard demand/unit or /m2 to the development quanta. After this process utility demand estimates have been calculated by development area. The energy demands have been assessed for two scenarios, Summer Afternoon and Winter Evening, in order to assess the peak energy demand required over the different land uses. These energy demands have been measured against projected capacities either provided by the utility operators or assessed through discussions with the utility operators.

6.4.1 Overall Development The total development quanta outlined is shown below:

Number of new housing units 13,67837 Office Space (m2) 60,086 General Industry (m2) 540,774 Warehousing (m2) 600,860

The resulting estimated utility demands over the entire region are shown below:

Max. Electricity Demand 69.66 MW Max. Gas Demand 151.77 MW Daily Water Demand 4652.7 m3/day Daily Foul Demand 4420.1 m3/day

6.4.2 Electricity The overall electricity demands compared with the available capacity in the Northern Powergrid network are shown on the map in Figure 6.3.

37 The Local Plan Pre-Submission Draft includes a housing target of 13,340 units. However a worse case housing figure of 13,725 units has been assessed through the IDP. The overall assessment and conclusions of this chapter remain valid based on a housing figure of 13,725 units. | Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 47 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

Figure 6.3 Map showing electrical demands compared to available capacity

As shown in Figure 6.3 the total available capacity within the North East Lincolnshire region at 11kV is 91.79MVA based on NPG’s 2018/19 projected figures. Overall there is a sufficient amount of capacity to supply the proposed developments in the region however in some cases it is not located near proposed developments or is at too high a voltage to be of practical use and thus requires substations to transform it down to a useable voltage. The majority of the available capacity is within the five 33kV supply points. The voltage level of this available capacity is too high and cannot be fed directly to new developments. This voltage will need to be stepped down at new (or upgraded existing) 11kV primary substations. A new 33/11kV primary substation will provide either 24MVA or 30MVA of firm supply.

6.4.3 Gas The overall gas demands are shown on the map in Figure 6.4.

Figure 6.4 Map showing gas demands for the North East Lincolnshire region

The North East Lincolnshire region is well served by the NG local distribution network. The calculated demands were sent to National Grid for comment. National Grid: “The area has a network of IP, MP and LP mains, so we could confidently assume that if development required reinforcement, there would be capacity to facilitate this and options for reinforcement if required.” In accordance with their connections policy NG will assess all new connections on a “first past the post” basis. Any reinforcement scheme would then be assessed based on the requirements of the specific connection.

6.4.4 Water Supply The Anglian Water Resource Management Plan (2015) was prepared over 2013/14 with input from a range of stakeholders and was effective from April 2015. It shows how the supply demand balance will be maintained over the next 25 years, as well as dealing with the longer term challenges presented by population growth, climate change and environmental needs. Across the Anglian Water region as a whole, over the next 25 years there are significant challenges to maintain the demand supply balance. In response the WRMP has committed the business to reducing water leakage and consumption and increases the volume of water that is transferred from areas of surplus to areas of deficit.

In order to meet long-term future supply-demand needs Anglian Water is promoting the Water Resources East Anglia Project (WREA) where we will work in partnership with the Environment Agency, Natural England and others to increase the resilience of our region to the effects of drought, climate change and growth.

6.4.5 Water Treatment Table 6.2 sets out the broad estimation of headroom in the Water Recycling Centres serving North East Lincolnshire. It is however likely that further upgrades to WRCs will be required during the plan period to meet the entirety of growth set out in the draft plan. The timing of any infrastructure improvements would be dependent upon the phasing of any development(s) and the time required to requisition additional water and water recycling infrastructure where it is required to enable development to come forward. The Laceby Water Recycling Centre has limited capacity to grow, and land for approximately 320 new homes is proposed through the Local Plan. There will therefore be a requirement for Anglian Water to work with North East Lincolnshire Council and developers to create additional capacity at Laceby WRC. Anglian Water will wish to work closely with the Local Authority and Developers to ensure that any improvements are aligned to the phasing of development. As such Anglian Water would welcome working together to understand projected build out rates and proposed housing trajectories to inform our demand forecasts and our business plan submission to OFWAT. Anglian Water are a statutory consultee on Local Plan preparation and as such engage to inform and be informed by growth in our area. Anglian Water will provide comments as part of the formal consultation to the Local Plan when published in early 2016. Table 6.2: Headroom for growth

6.5 Delivery and Responsibilities The arrangements for connecting new developments are made with the incumbent DNO for both gas and electricity. A typical process is as follows:  Developer issues connection request to the DNO who return the connection offer with costs divided between ‘contestable’ and ‘non-contestable’.  Contestable work can be carried out by appropriately qualified contractors who are employed by the developer instead of the DNO.  Arrangements can be made with Independent Distribution Network Operators who can own and operate the assets. Such arrangements can enable the costs of the installation to be reduced.  Arrangements with appropriately qualified contractors can result in a reduced programme of installation and more control over the actual site activities  The contestable works must be of the same standard as non-contestable and in some cases the contestable works are handed over to the DNO.  These arrangements can take many months and in some cases for large amounts of electricity many years depending upon the size of the connection, the condition of the existing network and circumstances.  The application of modern procurement methods can effectively reduce the connection costs.  A more effective way of reducing the cost of connections is for developers to work together and request a single connection for a group of developments and then distribute the capacity between them via an IDNO owned network.  The further ahead development utility connections are planned and programmed then generally the lower the cost of the connected MVA/KVA.  Water and Used Water network capacity can be dependent on the specific connection points and the network available in the area. Where network improvements (on-site and off-site) are required they are generally funded/part funded through developer contribution via the relevant sections of the Water Industry Act 1991. The cost and extent of the required network improvement are investigated and determined when we are approached by a developer and an appraisal is carried out. There are a number of payment options available to developers. Options include deducting the revenue that will be raised from the newly connected dwellings (through the household wastewater charges) over a period of twelve years off the capital cost of the network upgrades.

6.6 Summary of Infrastructure

6.6.1 Electricity The main electrical infrastructure in North East Lincolnshire is operated by Northern Powergrid.

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 51 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

The electrical supply system in North East Lincolnshire originates at the Grimsby West grid supply point. The total regional development demand is estimated as 69.66MW. The total regional capacity at 33kv is 289.24MVA. The total regional capacity at 11kv within the North East Lincolnshire Area is 91.79MVA. The total regional capacity exceeds the total regional development demand however on a local level some capacity is required which cannot be served by the local networks. Local upgrades and/or a new substation will be required in locations where new development is constructed adjacent primary substations with insufficient capacity. This is discussed in greater detail in Section 17 looking at the Strategic Sites. In general, it is best practice for new developments to be served by the closest substation. It is preferable to upgrade existing substations rather than cable in electricity from distance as it limits further development in other areas. It is anticipated that a new 30MVA 11kV Primary Substation will be required in the estuary zone to serve the Humber Bank area. At this stage it is estimated that the cost of proving sufficient substation capacity at the 11kV level equivalent to an additional 20-30MVA is up to £3m plus land costs, building costs, taxes, legal agreements etc. In addition to this substation cost there will be additional cabling costs to the substation and cabling costs from the substation to the developments. The programme and cost of installing the appropriate infrastructure will depend upon timing of development, demand of development and distance of the development from the available capacity. A further strategic assessment of the options for meeting the developments’ demands needs to be undertaken especially with regard to the development programmes. The above costs need to be distributed equitably over the proposed developments and a strategy is required to determine the optimum arrangements to ensure such a distribution.

6.6.2 Gas The gas network within the North East Lincolnshire region is operated by National Grid. There is good network coverage throughout the region. The demands generated by new development can be served by the existing infrastructure with only local reinforcement being likely. Local connections will be approved on a “first past the post” basis. Limitation is only the cost and time to make the connection into that part of the network that has the capacity. Such costs are within those that developer’s budget for typical developments.

6.6.3 Water Supply and Treatment Anglian Water is the statutory sewerage undertaker for the North East Lincolnshire area, supplying clean water and treating waste water. There are no water supply deficits forecast in the East Lincolnshire Water Resource Zone over the 25 year Water Resource Management Plan. There are five Water Recycling Centres across North East Lincolnshire and the majority have capacity for growth, however upgrades may be required in the plan period. The Laceby Water Recycling Centre has limited capacity to grow, and land for approximately 320 new homes is proposed through the Local Plan. There will therefore be a requirement for Anglian Water to work with North East Lincolnshire Council and developers to create additional capacity at Laceby WRC. Anglian Water will provide comments as part of the formal consultation to the Local Plan when published in early 2016.

7.2.1 Overview Digital services have long been recognised as important for citizens’ participation in society, the economy and the democratic process. Ofcom, the independent regulator and competition authority for the UK communications industries, works to encourage competition which has helped to deliver the three central goals of availability, take-up and effective use of key services. OFCOM has recently launched a Digital Communications Review to:  “Ensur[e] people get the best possible communications services, wherever they live and work… [OFCOM] want[s] to promote competition, investment and innovation, so that everyone benefits from even better coverage, choice, price and quality of service in years to come.” With the proposed growth and regeneration of commercial, and residential developments within the North East Lincolnshire Council borough, the Council’s stated ambitions as set out in its ICT Strategy 2012 - 2015 are:  Extend broadband services as superfast broadband will open door to countless business opportunities, boosting the rural economy and supporting thriving local communities. Increase access to broadband for households.

 Provide fast & reliable access to all information systems, ensuring processes are in place to ensure business continuity.  Promote wireless technologies thus making services accessible from any and all locations, both for Council officers and Members, and for the public.  Promote unified telecoms solution and video and audio conferencing,  Take advantage of new and innovative technologies, and new ways of working (e.g. mobile / home working / outreach services). Broadband Telecoms services are provided across the UK by a great range of Internet Service Providers, however the vast majority of residential and Small & Medium Enterprise (SME) subscribers are served by one of five major providers – BT, Sky, Virgin Media, Talk Talk or EE. Together they account for over 98% of broadband subscriptions. The underlying telecoms cables and equipment which provide access to those services are even more aggregated, with BT’s, Sky’s, Talk Talk’s and EE’s services all being provided over the same physical infrastructure, which is owned by BT’s Openreach subsidiary. Virgin Media own their own infrastructure which serves only their subscribers, and tends to be of higher speed than Openreach provided services. Other national operators, providing solely business grade fibre services, include KCOM, Level 3 and Vodafone (Cable & Wireless), and local fibre services are developing around the country to extend these networks. 2G, 3G and 4G mobile services are offered nationwide by four Mobile Operators (Vodafone, O2, EE and 3) who each own their own infrastructure of masts, antennas, and cabling across the country. Some virtual mobile operators (e.g. Giff Gaff, Tesco Mobile) offer attractively priced services which are technically delivered over one of the four Mobile Operators’ physical networks.

7.3 Broadband services North East Lincolnshire Council is served by approximately 12 BT Openreach Exchanges. These are telecommunication hubs connecting homes and businesses across the borough to telecoms providers’ high speed connections to the internet. 7 of these exchanges are capable of providing subscribers with a choice of at least 4 Principal Internet Providers, the remaining 5 have more limited choice of Internet Providers. Most exchanges are also enabled to provide Openreach’s Superfast broadband known as Fibre to the Cabinet (FTTC). The exact extent of Openreach’s FTTC deployment is not possible to ascertain from the available sources, and detailed discussions with Openreach would be recommended. Currently none of the exchanges indicate Fibre to the Premise (FTTP) access, however this is expected to change with Northern Lincolnshire Council’s Broadband project. Figure 7.1 below shows the approximate coverage areas of BT Openreach’s exchanges.

Figure 7.1 Approximate BT Openreach Exchange coverage

Some regions are well accessed by more than one exchange. Small gaps between coverage areas served by BT Openreach exchanges do not imply that these areas receive no telephone or broadband service, but that it is likely that they will not receive high speed services. Virgin Media’s coverage of the North East Lincolnshire area is more sporadic and is focussed on the towns in the area as shown on Figure 7.2 below.

The map below shows approximate coverage, and there may be a few areas which are covered by Virgin Media but not shown. Habrough and Stallingborough are known to be part of a BDUK supported increase to Virgin Media’s coverage, but accurate roll-out plans are not available at the moment.

Overall the area is well served by these exchanges and a good range of telecom providers, which provide a better choice of internet providers in the towns of the area, rather than the rural area. Corporate level fibre services are hard to ascertain, and would require detailed discussions with a range of providers.

7.4 Mobile Services In order to ascertain the level of 2G, 3G and 4G services across North East Lincolnshire Council, various sources were reviewed, including Ofcom, mobile providers’ websites, and opensignal.com where individuals mobile phone users can self-report signal strength and services. The following observations were made:  2G - NELC lies in the 95% or more premises category for **2G services. However along the periphery of the rural area of the council it drops down to 80% - less than 90%.  3G - NELC lies in the 80% - less than 90% premises category for ***3G services  4G - Coverage is mostly concentrated on a few towns. Grimsby, Waltham, Immingham, Humberston. ** The percentage of premises at which all operators have 2G coverage (outdoor reception). ***The percentage of premises at which all operators have 3G coverage (outdoor reception). Overall the coverage is likely to be strong and similar in each of the following sub-regions: Existing settlement areas, Western and Southern arcs, Estuary zone and urban area. Specifically 2G and 3G have strong near uniform coverage

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 58 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

whereas 4G is concentrated in the towns of Grimsby, Waltham, Immingham, and Humberston. In the rural sub-region, the coverage is mostly uniform throughout, but decreases towards the periphery of the NELC area, where the coverage drops below 95% and more towards 80%. We would expect to see dropped calls and low / intermittent data coverage in the following areas – Wold Newton, East Ravendale, Hatcliffe, Beelsby, Aylesby and Irby upon Humber.

7.5 Planned Schemes To support the ambitions of the council several planned interventions are underway. The Northern Lincolnshire Broadband38 (NLB) project: This is a £5.7 million contract by the North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire Councils in which British Telecom (BT) plans to expand the reach of its “high-speed fibre” broadband (FTTC/P) connectivity to cover 89% of local homes and businesses by the end of spring 2015. The scheme is being funded by £1.51 million from BT, £2.64 million from the Government’s Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) office and the remaining £1.557 million will be coming from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). A mix of up to 80Mbps capable FTTC and 330Mbps FTTP technologies is expected to be used. The North Lincolnshire deal will see BT deploy FTTC to deliver wholesale downstream speeds of up to 80Mbps and upstream speeds of up to 20Mbps. BT plans to open to all communications providers on a wholesale basis, so that consumers and businesses can procure services from a wider range of suppliers. North and North East Lincolnshire councils have signed a second Superfast Extension Programme contract with BT to bring the operators “fibre broadband” (FTTC/P) network to even more premises. BT’s “superfast broadband” (24Mbps+) speeds are expected to cover 92.5% of North and North East Lincolnshire by June 2015 and at the end of last year some 26,320 additional premises had already been upgraded (uptake stood at 7.8% among related areas). The aim of the second contract will thus be to push this figure towards the Government’s 95% target by 2017. In terms of funding, BDUK has committed £1.18m to the second contract and this is being matched by the local authority to make for a total public investment of £2.36m. As part of these programmes the following upgrades have occurred or will occur:  Firms and homes in Cleethorpes, Waltham and Humberston were in the first phase in 2014.  Grimsby, Healing, Scartho and Barton were next to be connected to the high- speed network, later in the 2014.

 Parts of Grimsby, including the Holme Hill and Grange areas, and Humberside are due to be upgraded by June 2015.  Much of the Wolds electoral area, including East Ravendale, Beelsby and Aylesby, as well as Stallingborough and the south-eastern edge of Humberston, are earmarked for being upgraded by 2017.

7.6 Impact of Proposed Development

7.6.1 Overview As proposed developments are undertaken across the council for housing and employment, each developer will be responsible for securing telecoms services suitable for their own development. Typically this will result in each developer approaching broadband providers who will respond in a piecemeal fashion. Previous experience with both housing and employment suggest that planning and ordering of telecom services often comes in late in the design and construction programme. This can result in developers delivering standard services from one or a limited number of operators. To avoid this the NELC is advised to divert broadband penetration (as part of the NLB project) in the areas planned for development. The impact of the total volume, scale and time scales of the proposed developments should be utilised by the NELC to convince telecoms operators to take a more strategic view of the area, encouraging investment in faster services, rather than allow them to default on normal order-by-order assessment. Overall broadband operators are likely to respond well to the proposed developments as they give them good opportunities for new residential and commercial subscribers. Co-ordination with mobile operators’ roll outs is often something that is not seen as part of developers’ responsibilities, so it is recommended that NELC engage with the four operators to encourage them plan across the borough.

7.6.2 Urban Area Developments in this region are focussed around the Cleethorpes, Grimsby and Scartho and Humberston road areas. These regions enjoy sufficient coverage of both broadband and mobile services. The NLB project is also focusing broadband penetration in these areas. The good concentration of proposed developments should allow for superfast broadband from multiple providers.

7.6.3 Western and Southern Arc Developments in the regions are focussed around Healing, Laceby, Waltham, New Waltham and Humberston areas. Some of these areas are already covered for super broadband access as part of the NLB project. The scale of housing development calls for closer interaction between developers and broadband

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 60 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

service providers to enhance quality of service provision from multiple providers in the region.

7.6.4 Estuary Zone Developments are centred on Immingham, and are likely to receive services from exchanges in Healing and Grimsby. Aside from housing, a lot of developments are focussed on employment and industry, making it imperative to develop fibre connections as early as possible. Immingham features in the NLB project but whether early on or later is unclear.

7.6.5 Rural area Developments are focussed on Stallingborough, Brigsley and Habrough areas in the region and are likely to be served from the neighbouring exchanges of Roxton, Healing, Immingham and Waltham. Some areas are expected to enjoy partial attention by the council’s NLB project. Given its rural nature, some areas are likely to have difficulty in securing broadband for residential services.

7.7 Summary of Telecom Infrastructure Broadband services are generally good in most areas, though FTTP services are only beginning their deployment into the region. Mobile services are generally good in most areas, however attention should be focussed on encouraging the operators in deploying 4G services more uniformly across the region, esp. the Western and Southern arcs and the Rural areas, along with more resilient 2G and 3G services. Certain premises especially in the Estuary area between Immingham and Healing, the Western and Southern arc regions around New Waltham etc. are very close to the areas marked for the Northern Lincolnshire Broadband project. Hence some strategic developments could be prompted to engage early with the broadband operators to leverage the opportunity and facilitate best possible services. Rural sub region is likely to be difficult to engage operators in increasing their network. Some premises, Stallingborough, Aylesby etc. are earmarked for services via the broadband project 2017. Early provision of services across these and other regions may require earlier engagement with broadband operators in the specific areas. All areas are BT Openreach enabled, with sparse Virgin Media presence. Involving more Virgin Media operations may promote competition and hence better quality services in the region.

8.2 Current Infrastructure

8.2.1 Overview of Flooding Issues Flooding is a natural process that plays an important role in shaping the natural environment. However, it also threatens life and causes substantial damage to property. The nature of flood risk in North East Lincolnshire means that this document must look wider than the Council's administrative boundary to understand the existing and required flood risk infrastructure. North East Lincolnshire is particularly susceptible to flooding due to its low lying topography and proximity to the open sea and Humber Estuary. With flood risk posing a threat to local residents and their homes, businesses, commercial and agricultural land it is therefore a major consideration for planning and demonstrates the importance of encouraging sustainable development within North East Lincolnshire. Work is on-going between North East Lincolnshire Council, the Environment Agency and the owners of the flood defences to manage the occurrence of flooding. Flood risk involves both the statistical probability of a flood occurring and the scale of the potential consequences. The main causes of flooding are generally categorised as: Tidal flooding: flooding beside the sea or an estuary caused by high sea levels, sometimes influenced by high waves; Fluvial flooding: flooding from a river or large watercourse caused by high river flows;

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 63 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

Surface water flooding: flooding from small watercourses, ditches, sewers and overland flow caused by heavy rainfall; and Groundwater flooding: flooding that occurs when groundwater levels rise above ground levels, often following prolonged heavy rainfall. The mechanism of flooding is different in each case and this can have an impact on how floods develop, how often they are likely to occur and how they can be managed. The Humber Estuary presents a major source of flood risk for North East Lincolnshire. In addition, the main sources of flood risk are caused by river flooding, with risks posed by the in Grimsby, Buck Beck in Humberston and Oldfleet Drain in the Humber Employment Zone; the impact of rivers not able to freely flow to the seas at high tide at New Cut Drain, Grimsby; risk of flooding from the network of lowland drains; surface water and sewer flooding which has occurred in Grimsby, Cleethorpes, Humberston and industrial areas around Immingham; and groundwater flooding at Cleethorpes, Grimsby and the Humber trade zone if groundwater levels are high in the underlying rock. A significant proportion of the South Humber Bank area is at risk from flooding. Flood deference is important here as the area contains assets considered to be of important value (major infrastructure) and primary value (key industrial facilities). This area is of great importance to the local economy and provides a significant quantity of employment opportunities. New regulations came into force in April 2015 to require SuDS to be agreed through the planning application process. This means developers will need to agree their SuDS with North East Lincolnshire Council and developers will need to meet certain SuDs standards, as set out in Planning Practice Guidance. The guidance includes a hierarchy of acceptable discharge solutions with infiltration to the ground the most preferred and connection to sewers the least preferred (but still permissible).

8.2.2 Partnership Working Recognising that flooding is an issue which cross local authority boundaries, North East Lincolnshire has worked closely with neighbouring North Lincolnshire Council. The two Councils have jointly produced a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA). This partnership working and consultative approach fits well with the duty to cooperate set out in the Localism Act 2011. The Environment Agency and a range of other key stake holders were consulted during the production of the document. A range of organisations are responsible for managing flood risk. Nationally, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) is responsible for outlining a national policy approach, as well as providing funding, usually through its executive public agency, the Environment Agency (EA). The EA own and manage some of the flood defences within North East Lincolnshire. Locally, North East Lincolnshire Council acts as the Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA), as per duties imposed by the Flood and Water Management Act 2010,

but also manages and owns some defences. Other defences are managed and owned by private companies, including Associated British Ports (ABP). An Internal Drainage Board (IDB) exists within the North East Lincolnshire area – the North East Lindsey Drainage Board. Each drainage board is an operating authority covering a defined 'drainage borough' for which they are responsible for the maintenance of critical infrastructure within these areas as Water Level Management (WLM) organisations. The Environment Agency supervises the role of IDBs.

8.3 Relevant Documentation

8.3.1 Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment: Existing Flood Risk Areas39 As a Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA), the EC Floods Directive, through the Flood Risk Regulations (2009), requires North East Lincolnshire Council (NELC) to prepare a Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment (PFRA) by assessing the harmful consequences of past and potential future flooding, and to identify areas with significant flood risk. This was prepared in 2011, and must be updated every 6 years. The Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment noted that a number of locations in NELC are considered to be ‘flood risk areas’. The areas included in dark blue and light blue on Figure 7.1 below are the areas identified as ‘flood risk areas’. As Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) NELC are required to ‘produce flood hazard and flood risk maps’ by December 2013 and ‘produce flood risk management plans’ by December 2015. These need to be produced for the identified ‘flood risk areas’. The six identified flood risk areas are40: 1) Immingham: Woodlands Ave, Pelham Road and Road received some of the worst flooding during the 2007 summer floods with some 192 houses flooded internally and 90 externally. More than 400 houses are at risk with a number of schools and commercial premises. The inclusion of these areas is also verified by the EA Surface Water mapping. 2) Grimsby: The Willows and Wybers estate have areas at risk from flooding from the surcharged main sewer system and this threat is exacerbated by the adjacent main rivers and flood storage area. Bradley Cross Roads area is at risk from surface water flooding plus adjacent land drainage systems. The area is at risk from surface water flooding.

The Chelmsford Avenue/Westward Ho area is at risk from both surface water and groundwater flooding. The Hainton Avenue/ Street area is at risk from surface water flooding. The Grant Thorold /Wellington Street /Runswick Road area is at risk from surface water flooding. 3) Cleethorpes North: The Grimsby Road/ Brereton Avenue area is at risk from surface water flooding with groundwater flooding being an additional risk in the east part of the area. 4) Cleethorpes South: This area is at risk from surface water flooding. No flooding in recent years has been recorded in the location, except within Ormsby Close (1997). A problem was found with the Anglian public sewer. Anglian Water undertook remedial work which involved some relaying. No flooding of note occurred during 2007. 5) Humberston: The Coniston Crescent / Littlebeck Road /Buttermere Crescent area is at risk from surface water flooding and from the adjacent land drainage systems. Lack of capacity in the surface water public sewer may be an exacerbating factor. 6) Waltham: The Mount Pleasant/Barnoldby Road/Cheesmans Close area is at risk from the Buck Beck critical ordinary watercourse catchment. Surface water flooding is also a risk in this area. Figure 8.1: Identified Flood Risk Areas

8.3.2 The Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy, 2008 Overview North East Lincolnshire is well protected by hard defences which have benefitted from significant recent improvements. As a result a significant proportion of the frontage is now protected. Large areas of the hinterland, including many parts of Grimsby do however reside within the coastal flood plain. The Environment Agency provides 18 flood warning sirens across Grimsby and Cleethorpes. These warn of tidal flooding caused by the Humber, with one siren located on the Willows residential estate used to warn of flooding from the River Freshney. Immingham to River Freshney The Immingham to River Freshney stretch of coastal line is referenced as Flood Area 24 in the Environment Agency Humber Flood Risk management Strategy41.

This document notes that flood defences in this area stretch to 12.6km and are managed by the Environment Agency and ABP. They protect over 11,600 properties and over 2230 hectares of agricultural land. The defences in these areas protect areas defined as being of primary value including key industrial facilities. The existing defences provide a good standard of protection but have an estimated residual life of less than 10 years. The Environment Agency outline that work to improve this stretch of defences will be necessary in the short, medium and long term (see the Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy, 2008). East Grimsby The East Grimsby stretch of coastal line is referenced as Flood Area 25 in the Environment Agency Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy42. This document notes that flood defences in this area stretch to 3.9 km and are managed by the Environment Agency, North East Lincolnshire Council and ABP. They protect over 18,900 properties. The defences in these areas protect areas defined as being of primary value including key industrial facilities. The existing defences managed by North East Lincolnshire Council and located towards the eastern end of this area provide a good standard of protection. Defences managed by ABP are of variable condition, with segments considered by the Environment Agency to be of a poor condition. Defences in this area have an estimated residual life of between 10 and 20 years. The Environment Agency outline that work to improve this stretch of defences will be necessary in the medium term (see the Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy, 2008). A scheme and funding is in place to improve the existing flood defences, this is set out in section 10.4.6. The Grimsby (Freshney Washland) Flood Alleviation scheme replaces an existing flood storage reservoir with a new reservoir dam to improve the standard of flood protection along the New Cut drain in Grimsby to the 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (1 in 100 year return period). The scheme has now been completed. Cleethorpes and Humberston The Cleethorpes and Humberston stretch of coastal line is referenced as Flood Area 26 in the Environment Agency Humber Flood Risk management Strategy43. This document notes that flood defences in this area stretch to 9.2 km and are managed by the Environment Agency and North East Lincolnshire Council. They protect over 2,200 properties. The defences in these areas protect areas defined as being of important value, including major infrastructure. North East Lincolnshire Council manages most of the defences within this area and these are regarded by the Environment Agency to be of a good condition and provide a good standard of protection. Through dialogue with North East Lincolnshire Council it was noted that there are proposed schemes to improve the

sea defences in Cleethorpes. There are also some issues related to the Humberston Fitties area, which is a campsite. At Humberston Fitties there is a requirement for residents to vacate the campsite at night between January and February to avoid the greatest risk of flooding. The defences in this area received support in 2010/11 from a £750,000 Environment Agency grant for strengthening gabion defences on the front embankment at Humberston Fitties, to enable a lifespan of 50 years. The site is protected by reinforced sand dunes, which have significant low spots. North East Lincolnshire / EA manage a second line of defences (gabion defences) behind the sand dunes. However most of the chalets are in front of these defences, and so at risk of flooding if waves wash over the sand dunes. Defences in this area have an estimated residual life of greater than 20 years. The Environment Agency outline that work to improve this stretch of defences will be necessary in the long term (see the Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy, 2008). The Council uses the public sewers and some piped ditches for highway water run-off in Humberston. The Environment Agency has some watercourses alongside Council owned land at Jubilee Park. However, the majority of the drainage infrastructure comprises the Anglian Water public sewer network, North East Lindsey Drainage Board's watercourses and other riparian owned watercourses. The Environment Agency is responsible for the road gullies and connecting pipework. Some drainage improvements have been carried out including the cleaning of the watercourses at the rear of Coniston Crescent and a new road crossing in Humberston Avenue. There is a problem in Humberston Avenue with the public foul sewer surcharging during rainfall and it needs to be discussed with Anglian Water whether improvements are required here. The Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy is currently being reviewed and this is required to be in place by 2020.

8.3.3 Local Flood Risk Management Strategy, 2015 This strategy identifies the areas in North East Lincolnshire where the greatest flood risks exist now and in the future. It then identifies measures to manage and reduce this risk. This Strategy summarises all the known Flood Risk data relates to:  Flooding from ordinary watercourses.  Surface water flooding.  Groundwater flooding.  Sewer flooding.  Coastal flooding and erosion.  Flooding from main rivers.

An Action Plan will be published separately to this strategy. This will detail the works that the Council and other partners have identified which need to be carried out to reduce flood risk in the borough and details on the programme and funding for the required improvements.

8.3.4 The Humber Estuary Landscape and Green Infrastructure Study, 2015 The Humber Estuary Landscape and Green Infrastructure Study is an estuary- wide landscape characterisation and planning study which provides context for creative discussions with stakeholders to identify opportunities and constraints for investment through partnership projects. A second stage of work produced a suite of new conceptual landscape design studies for selected waterfront sites which meet identified cross organisational objectives. This includes Cleethorpes and Tetney Marsh as a pilot for the strategy. As the opportunity to deliver landscape and green infrastructure enhancements related to ecotourism and nature watching. This includes proposals for Cleethorpes and the area around Humberston Fitties. This will be worked up in more detail in 2016.

8.3.5 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment, 2011 In 2011 North East Lincolnshire adopted their Strategic Flood Risk Assessment44. A SFRA is a tool for use by a planning authority to assess all types of flood risk for spatial planning and making planning decisions. The requirement to produce one was set out in NPPF, which introduced the Sequential Test as a means of demonstrating there are no reasonably available sites with a lower risk of flooding suitable for the type of development proposed and the Exception Test for use where the Sequential Test alone cannot deliver acceptable sites but where continued development is necessary for wider reasons.

8.3.6 Flamborough Head to Gibraltar Point Shoreline Management Plan, 2010 The Humber Estuary Coastal Authorities Group (HECAG) Shoreline Management Plan and The Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy outline existing flood defence provision. The Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy (2008) is currently being updated and a new draft is expected in 201545. The Shoreline Management Plan46 for the south bank of the Humber will ensure continued protection from coastal erosion and coastal flooding for assets in the floodplain, including the significant industry, port and residential areas between Immingham and Cleethorpes. This policy will also ensure that infrastructure associated with Grimsby, Cleethorpes and the villages within the area, historic

environment assets and agricultural land at the rear of the towns continue to be protected from coastal erosion and flooding. The decision to continue to hold the line means that erosion of this frontage is prevented resulting in a reduction in supply of sediment to intertidal and subtidal habitats. The interruption of natural processes as well as coastal squeeze caused by sea level rise is likely to result in loss of intertidal habitat within the Humber Estuary, which has the potential to adversely affect the landscape as well as the designated environmental sites of the Humber Estuary. The defended frontages are likely to require increasingly sizeable defences as they become more exposed to wave attack (due to removal of material at the toe of the defence structures as well as sea level rise).

8.4 Fit for Purpose

8.4.1 Immingham to River Freshney The Environment Agency have identified that the length of defences near Immingham needs improvement. Erosion of the foreshore is gradually weakening defences. Defended frontages on the south of the Humber Estuary are likely to require increasingly sizeable defences as they become more exposed to wave attack, owing to the removal of material at the toe of the defence structures as well as sea level rise47. Two schemes are being progressed to deal with this issue as set out in section 8.5.1.

8.4.2 Western and Southern Arc There are known flood issues associated with Laceby Beck and Beck in Waltham.

8.4.3 East Grimsby The Grimsby Docks Flood Alleviation Scheme (Phase 1 and 2) are committed and result in not fit for purpose issues in this location.

8.4.4 Cleethorpes and Humberston The Humberston Fitties Chalet Park comprises 320 seasonally occupied chalets located in a designated Conservation Area, located in Flood Zone 3a. The site features two lines of defence - a primary defence owned by North East Lincolnshire Council consisting of reinforced sand dunes; and a secondary defence owned by the Environment Agency, comprising of an embankment. A number of chalets are located between the primary and secondary defence, resulting in not all chalets enjoying the same level of protection. The primary

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

defence is identified to have a number of significant low spots, which could result in over-topping or a breach of these defences. Government guidance sets out a flood risk standard of protection for coastal communities of 0.5% annual probability of flooding in any one year (1 in 200). If both the primary and secondary defence are considered as one defence, the properties behind both lines of defence are considered by the Environment Agency to be protected48.

8.5 Planned and Proposed Schemes

8.5.1 Immingham to the River Freshney The Humber Grimsby Flood Risk Strategy references the ‘Immingham to Freshney sea defence improvements’ and the ‘Port of Immingham Sea Defence Improvement Works’, both of these schemes are included in the Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management (FCERM) Construction Programme - England updated August 2015. The port scheme has been accelerated and phase 1 replacement of lock gates and the immediate frontages is due in 2016/17 with a further phase in 2018. The area is also scheduled to have further works completed in the next five years, whereas the Immingham to Freshney is currently in the planning stages and is expected to occur after 2021. There are also a number of committed surface water flooding schemes NELC and EA are working together to package together these schemes to create planning and constriction efficiencies.

8.5.2 East Grimsby The Grimsby Docks Flood Alleviation Scheme is a £19.3 million scheme by the Environment Agency to improve 3,500 metres of sea defences at Grimsby Docks. The majority of the scheme has committed funding and is being delivered in partnership by landowners; Associated British Ports (ABP), Environment Agency and North East Lincolnshire Council. The scheme has three phases. The status of each phase is outlined below:  Phase 1 completed in July 2014.  Phase 2 Part 1 completed September 2014.  Phase 2 Part 2 to commence January 2016.  Phase 3 (Cleethorpes) – EA have confirmed that this phase of the scheme is not required at this stage but will be reviewed in 2021. Additional flood protection measures funding being sought from GLLEP for frontages of businesses in North Cleethorpes.

8.5.3 Cleethorpes and Humberston North East Lincolnshire Council and the Environment Agency are working closely to investigate the options for improving the sea wall at North Promenade, Cleethorpes. The Environment Agency has confirmed that phase 3 of the Grimsby Docks Flood Alleviation Scheme is not required at present, but this will reviewed in 2021. There are two flood defence schemes that are being promoted by North East Lincolnshire:  North Promenade Terminal Groyne replacement, Cleethorpes: The business case for this scheme is complete and construction is planned for summer 2016.  Lower Kingsway: This is a scheme to improve the sea wall to protect 400 properties in Cleethorpes. There is a recognised need to improve the flood defences at the Humberston Fitties Chalet Park. The Shoreline Management Plan includes a policy to maintaining the current level of defences. Following the tidal surge of 2013 funding was secured to repair the sand dune defences. A Flood Risk Assessment and Evacuation Plan for the Humberston Fitties Chalet Park has been completed and is awaiting cabinet approval. The Humber Estuary Landscape and Green Infrastructure Study identifies Cleethorpes and Tetney Marsh as a pilot for the strategy. As the opportunity to deliver landscape and green infrastructure enhancements related to ecotourism and nature watching. This includes proposals for Cleethorpes and the area around Humberston Fitties. This will be worked up in more detail in 2016.

8.6 Impact of Development Proposals The current protection is currently adequate to meet current needs. There will be a requirement to improve flood defences up to 2032. The Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy is currently being updated. This update includes a survey of the existing flood defences and their adequacy to meet current needs. This strategy will set out schemes needed going forward and will be updated as required by the Environment Agency. The Environment Agency have a programme of proposed flood defence improvements, which are set out at Figure 7.2 and at figure 16.1. Based on the committed schemes the level of strategic flood defences will be adequate to meet planned growth levels. North East Lincolnshire Council will expect all new development to be designed to meet Environment Agency (EA) guidance, with raised floor levels where required and a place of evacuation. All developments must also meet national and any emerging local Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) guidance to tackle surface water flooding.

North East Lincolnshire Council will work closely with developers to agree appropriate flood management approached through the delivery of site Flood Risk Assessments. This will include agreeing mechanisms to slow the flow of surface water from sites, particularly around Laceby and Waltham, where the available discharge points are already subject to flooding issues. The sequential and exceptions tests will be completed through the Strategic Flood Risk Assessment, which is being prepared to support the emerging Local Plan.

8.7 Delivery and Responsibilities The Environment Agency will seek to supplement public funding with contributions from major beneficiaries and from developers, to provide new flood defence infrastructure. Flood Defence Grant-in-Aid (FDGiA): This is nationally available funding through the Environment Agency. It is expected that other sources of funding are made available to complement FDGiA. Local Growth Fund: This funding is available through the Humber and Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnerships. Private Funding: Developers and private companies may contribute to flood defences. Developers will be expected to pay the full cost of any new works needed to protect their development. North East Lincolnshire Funding: in some instances NELC may contribute to flood defences. European Structural Investment Funds (ESIF): are the EU’s main funding programmes and include the European Social Fund (ESF), European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD).

8.8 Summary of Infrastructure North East Lincolnshire received as part of the 6 year programme funding to protect in excess of 17,000 households. There are a number of schemes going forward covering both tidal and surface water flooding. These schemes include:  The Grimsby Docks Flood Alleviation Scheme: £19.79m (reference F2).  Immingham to Freshney: £7.5m (reference F3).  Cleethorpes to Humberston: £1.9m (reference F4).  Terminal Groyne Replacement, Cleethorpes: £750,000 (reference F11).  Surface water schemes in Peaksfield Avenue and Willingham Street, Grimsby, Coniston Crescent, Humberston and Manby Road, Immingham: £1.125m (reference F7, 8, 9 and 10). The total cost of all the projects is £43.4m this is from Flood Grant in Aid (FDGIA), local contributions and other funding sources.

The Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy is currently being reviewed and this is required to be in place by 2020. As part of this work all the existing flood defences are being inspected to confirm erosion rates and whether they are still fit for purpose. The broad schemes set out in the 2008 strategy are unlikely to change, but the phasing of schemes may be altered. In addition additional schemes may be required. The planned provision section is based on the 2008 strategy, as this was the most up-to-date evidence base available at the time of writing this baseline report, alongside information from a discussion with the NELC Lead Flood Risk Management Officer (Strategic, Coastal & Environmental Infrastructure). North East Lincolnshire Council are in the process of commissioning Surface Water Management Plans for Grimsby and Immingham. This could result in the identification of new schemes. In addition each proposed site allocation would also be expected to deliver adequate protection from coastal, fluvial and surface water flood risk in line with national guidance. A summary of the flood risk infrastructure required to provide future protection to North East Lincolnshire is shown in Table 8.1.

9 Waste Management

9.1 Information Sources The following data sources have been used to populate this chapter:  NELC (2015) North East Lincolnshire Council Municipal Waste Management Plan Technical Plan (2015 – 2018) Draft for Consultation.  BPP Consulting (September 2015) Draft Waste Needs Assessment to support North East Lincolnshire Council’s Local Plan, Phase 2 Report: Assessment of Principal Waste Streams.  NELC (2015) North East Lincolnshire Local Authority Collected Waste Forecasts to 2032.

9.2 Current Provision Planning for waste management is guided by the policies within the National Planning Policy for Waste (October 2014) and the Planning Practice Guidance (March 2014). The Guidance indicates that all Local Planning Authorities, to the extent appropriate to their responsibilities should look to drive waste up the waste hierarchy. The Waste Hierarchy prioritises preventing and re-use over other recovery and disposal. The need to consider infrastructure for waste management is also compounded by recent or emerging legislative changes:  Revised Waste Framework Directive (2008) which seeks to increase recycling targets by 50% by 2020, and includes a target to stop landfilling of biodegradable waste by 2017.  The European Commission is currently producing a circular economy strategy which it seeks to deliver in late 2015. The strategy will include new legislative waste targets and focus on closing the loop between business, economic development and waste. NELC, as a unitary authority, retains responsibility for waste disposal and waste collection within the area. In 1999, NELC signed a 25 year contract with NewLincs to manage household and municipal waste arising in North East Lincolnshire. This contract, which has recently been extended to 2029, involves the management of household waste and kerbside collections, materials from Community Recycling Centres and ‘bring to’ sites. NELC has retained the responsibility for collecting waste from householders and delivering it to NewLincs facilities. Current waste management provision within the Borough is set out within the Waste Needs Assessment (2015) and the Local Authority Collected Waste Forecast to 2032 (2015). The following summarises the available facilities in North East Lincolnshire:

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 78 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

Local Authority Collected Waste: Collected by NELC from households, small business, household waste recycling centres, litter bins and fly-tipping. Facilities for the management of municipal waste within the Local Authority Area therefore include: The NewLincs Integrated Waste Management Facility which comprises a Combined Heat and Power facility and a Material Reclamation Facility in the industrial Estuary Zone. The facility is managed by Grimsby Operations Ltd (a subsidiary of NewLincs) and has capacity to treat 56,000 tonnes per annum (or 16.3MW). Two Community Recycling Centres, one on Queens Road in Immingham and one on Estuary Way in Grimsby. These facilities are managed by Grimsby Operations Ltd. There are recycling banks at 58 locations within the Local Authority Area. Weekly kerbside collection of household waste, dry recyclables and green waste and street cleaning are undertaken 362 days a year. Commercial and Industrial: There is a relatively heavy reliance on landfill within this sector with most commercial and industrial waste being exported to North Lincolnshire. North East Lincolnshire has one landfill at Immingham. Within the borough, there is also a network of community waste companies, including recycling operations and transfer stations which are operating within the established industrial areas. NELC do not currently offer a ‘Trade Waste’ collection service. Construction and Demolition Waste: The existing generated levels appear to be effectively managed through existing permitted capacity plus registered crushers and North East Lincolnshire is nearly self-sufficient in terms of permitted management capacity Hazardous Waste: NELC facilities managed nearly 17,000 tonnes of hazardous waste in 2013, at 9 sites which are mainly focussed around the Humber Bank area49. However the majority of this waste is imported into North East Lincolnshire and could also be being transferred to other local authority areas.

9.3 Fit for Purpose Local Authority Collected Waste: The trend for 2007/08 to 2012/13 generally showed a reduction in the tonnage of waste arising within the recession and government initiatives to reduce packaging. The Assessment of Waste Needs 50indicates that current management capacity stands at 135,000 tonnes per annum based on source-segregated collected material being bulked up and the operation of two Community Recycling Centres providing separation for recycling capacity of circa 11,000 tpa. The needs

assessment therefore indicates that there is ample capacity available, even at a growth rate of 7.4% across the Plan Period (see Figure 9.1 below). Commercial and Industrial: The Assessment of Waste Needs (2015) states that landfill at Immingham has a remaining estimated capacity of 2.2 million cubic metres which, projecting current rates of filling (60,000 cubic metres per year), appears to offer sufficient capacity to meet the projected needs of the plan area for the full plan period. Construction and Demolition: The Waste Needs assessment indicates that a considerable amount of CDEW is generated within the Plan Area (estimated 175,000 tonnes), which is effectively managed through existing permitted capacity plus registered crushers. Hazardous Waste: There is capacity within NELC to accommodate its own need and, generally, a wider need51. Where capacity is limited within the Local Authority, local need is still needed to be proven. There is no apparent need to provide for additional facilities.

9.4 Planned and Planned Schemes

9.4.1 Local Authority Collected Waste NELC have committed, locally, to ensuring that 40% of its waste is recycled, and nationally, to meeting the revised Waste Framework Directive (rWFD) recycling targets (50% by 2020) within the Draft Municipal Waste Management Strategy Plan 2015 (MWMP). The Draft MWMP includes a target to stop landfilling of biodegradable Local Authority Collected Waste by 2017 and all untreated Local

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

Authority Collected Waste by 2020. To achieve these targets, the following facilities have been identified: Recycling Target: To meet the rWFD target of 50% household waste recycling by 2020, an increase of 12,000 tonnes on current recycling capacity will be required. NELC is not on track to meet local or national targets as a significant proportion of waste recovered is treated at the EfW facility. There is a requirement for further development to increase capacity in order to meet the LACW waste recycling and composting targets. As a minimum, this would take the form of the provision of bulking capacity for separately collected materials. This provision would be delivered through the long-term Integrated Waste Management Contract and partnering agreement in pace between NELC and Newlincs Development Ltd. Landfill Target: Meeting the landfill targets is challenging due to unknown levels of biodegradable LACW sent to landfill and the definition of ‘treatment’ which will be applied. Other Recovery Capacity: The emerging updated municipal waste plan concludes that ‘the Newlincs CHP facility has capacity to treat the Council’s residual waste provided waste recycling targets are met. There should not be a requirement for additional waste treatment capacity for the foreseeable future’. This follows a change within the North East Lincolnshire Municipal Waste Strategy (2009), which identified that a second CHP facility (located at the same site as the current CHP facility) would be used to meet residual Local Authority Collected Waste need.

9.4.2 Other Waste Streams Commercial and Industrial: There is considerable uncertainty in the requirement for Commercial and Industrial waste: whilst national forecasts indicate a likely fall in waste arising, the ‘Assessment of Principal Waste Streams Arising in North East Lincolnshire’ (2015) identifies two scenarios were there would be a positive growth in Commercial and Industrial Waste to 2020. There is a heavy reliance on landfill in relation to commerce and industry in North East Lincolnshire. As landfill capacity remains readily available, this does delay development of recovery capacity in this sector. Examples include the existing consents for advanced thermal treatment processes at the Dahlman Renewable Technology Site and Vaporo Tech Ltd, which both remain unimplemented.

9.5 Impact of Development Based on the analysis within the Waste Needs Assessment (2015), the impact of proposed growth within NELC is likely to be as follows: Local Authority Collected Waste: Based on the current levels of planned growth, current collection methods and increasing levels of recycling, there is likely to be ‘ample capacity’ within existing facilities and no need for additional treatment capacity in the short to medium term (to 2020).

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

The surplus in provision is only likely to change if NELC were to move from source-segregated collection towards comingling of recyclable materials or if recycling levels did not increase, which may result in a smaller deficit in capacity towards the latter end of the Plan Period or the need for an additional Material Handling Facility. In addition, the Municipal Waste Management Plan (2015) states that ‘to increase the sustainability of the Newlincs contract, there is a requirement to improve the Gilbey Road transfer station to transport dry recyclable waste directly to the re-processors Commercial and Industrial Waste: Whilst there is likely to be sufficient capacity to meet the projected needs of the Plan Area for growth in Commercial and Industrial Waste, the Waste Needs Assessment states that this capacity may delay development of merchant recovery capacity within the market. Other Waste Streams: There is no apparent need to provide for additional Hazardous Waste Management Facilities or additional capacity for construction and demolition waste within North East Lincolnshire.

9.6 Summary of Infrastructure Based on available data the existing waste infrastructure is adequate to meet planned levels of employment and housing development. However there may be a requirement for an additional material handling facility depending on findings of detailed waste modelling.

10.2 Current Infrastructure There are 66 parks and open spaces within North East Lincolnshire, as set out in Table 10.1. Of these, the majority are owned and managed by North East Lincolnshire Council. The Green Space Strategy Audit Assessment, 2011 identifies all of the green space within North East Lincolnshire. Levels of provision are defined through an assessment of Green Space quality, particularly environmental value, amenity and potential for new uses. The current open space provision is shown in Table 10.1.

10.3 Fit for Purpose The Green Space Strategy Audit Assessment, 2011 identifies the quality of the areas of Green Space within the Local Authority area. Those spaces which were identified as ‘satisfactory’ (S1) requiring courses of action before the strategy review in 2016, or ‘poor’ (P) requiring some immediate courses of action 2011- 12 and further action before 2016, are listed in table 10.1: Table 10.1: Current Quality of Open Space in North East Lincolnshire

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

10.4 Planned and Proposed Schemes It is currently unknown whether there are any planned or proposed green infrastructure/open space schemes within the North East Lincolnshire Borough.

10.5 Impact of Development Proposals The scale of allocations proposed in the Local Plan will likely have a significant impact upon green space across the borough. Linked to the scale of allocations, it is anticipated that there will be a corresponding increase in demand for open space, potentially worsening the ratio of open space provision per population. In addition increasing usage may also have a negative impact upon areas of green space noted as having existing quality issues. The Local Plan contains a set of standards for open space, shown in Table 10.3 and it is expected that new development should help contribute towards helping each ward achieve these targets through on site provision. Table 10.3: NELC Current Green Space Standards

Open Space Typology Current Local Provision Current Local Standard Accessibility Standard Natural Green Space 1ha/1,000 population Informal amenity space – within 200m Local recreational area – within 400m Borough Park – within 1,000n Major Park – within 3,000m Children's play 0.8ha/1,000 population of which Within 800m 0.1ha should be designated equipped playing space Outdoor Sports 1.6ha/1,000 population Within 1200m Allotments 0.2ha/1,000 population No local standard has been set Woodland No local standard has been set No local standard has been set

These targets translate into an on-site provision requirement by applying the following formula:  It is estimated that 1,000 population equates to 455 homes, with an average occupancy rate of 2.2 people per home.  455 developed at 30dph equates to 15.2ha.  A 70% net developable area equates to gross development site area of 22ha.  The Local Standards per 1,000 population will therefore apply to a gross development site of 22ha.  Developers would be expected to contribute a proportionate amount of open space based on the above formula. | Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 85 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

Emerging Local Plan Policy 39 requires development to maintain and improve the borough’s network of green infrastructure. The policy requires “appropriate opportunities should be taken to improve the overall connectivity of green spaces, including improvements to access to the countryside and permeability of the urban area”. Policy 12 requires strategic housing sites to ensure that the local infrastructure requirements are met, including green infrastructure, play and playing pitch provision. Policy 42 requires new development to make provision for green space, sport and recreation, including through the provision of commuted sums where accessibility standards have been achieved. NELC has committed to producing an SPD to provide revised open spaces standards at a later point in time. This is an essential activity to achieve future infrastructure provision. It would be expected that the planned growth across the borough will contribute towards rectifying the deficit in specific typologies through on-site provision where possible, in line with North East Lincolnshire Council Local Plan policy. In particular, larger strategic sites will more than likely make on-site provision. Further provision of open space sites on allocated development sites (especially strategic sites) will also go some way toward rectifying accessibility issues by introducing new sites into the overall stock. In terms of quality North East Lincolnshire Council may wish to utilise planning obligations or the use of the Community Infrastructure Levy to improve the quality of existing sites where possible. These obligations may be tied to sites proposed for allocation in the North East Lincolnshire Local Plan, and therefore may provide one such mechanism to improve the quality of the stock of existing sites.

10.6 Delivery and Responsibilities The delivery of new Open Space provision and qualitative improvements will be provided throughout the plan period by both NELC and private developers. It is likely however that the most significant additions to the borough’s Open Space stock during the plan period will be through on-site provision by developers in accordance with emerging Local Plan Policy 42. In terms of quality North East Lincolnshire Council may wish to utilise planning obligations or the use of the Community Infrastructure Levy to improve the quality of existing sites where possible. These obligations may be tied to sites proposed for allocation in the North East Lincolnshire Local Plan, and therefore may provide one such mechanism to improve the quality of the stock of existing sites.

10.7 Summary of Infrastructure Broadly speaking the provision of open space varies considerably across the borough. There are some areas that score poorly against provision and quality criteria which constitute gaps in provision.

The emerging Local Plan contains a set of suggested provision standards for GI and Open Space across the borough. Whilst these standards can be applied to new development schemes to understand the appropriate on-site provision of open space for new developments, it is not yet possible to understand how the borough is currently performing against the standards, and therefore whether or not a deficit exists. Additionally the emerging Local Plan commits NELC to producing an Open Space SPD to set formal and robust standards for open space provision across the borough. This will be an essential requirement for GI and Open Space infrastructure going forward. Table 10.4: Summary of Green Infrastructure and Open Space (see Figure 18.1 for full details)

11 Playing Pitch and Sports Provision

11.1 Information Sources The following documents have been used to populate this section:  Formal Council adoption of the latest Playing Pitch Strategy Cabinet Report, April 2013; and  North East Lincolnshire Playing Pitch Strategy, adopted September 2013; and  Emerging North East Lincolnshire Local Plan, 2015.

11.2 Current Infrastructure

11.2.1 Overview NELC’s Playing Pitch Strategy (adopted 2013) outlines a number of key strategic objectives to achieve the vision of improving the playing pitch and outdoor sports facilities provision. These include: Objective 1: To maximise community access to all outdoor facilities across North East Lincolnshire, including adopting accessibility standards, encouraging work in partnership with school and securing tenure and access to sites across the Borough. Objective 2: To address quantitative deficiencies to meet existing unmet demand and plan for new provision (as and where required), by: regularly reviewing and refreshing area by area plans to take account of pitch quality; rectifying inadequacies and meeting identified shortfalls; identifying opportunities to add to the overall pitch stock; establishing an approach to securing developer contributions, and working with facility providers to establish an approach to coordinating investment. Objective 3: To address qualitative deficiencies and enhance existing provision to support high levels of participation, through: adopting a tiered approach to management and improvement of facilities; investing in key strategic multi-pitch sport sites to accommodate the greatest number of team and the highest population density; improving pitch/ surface quality as a priority; and securing developer contributions wherever possible to improve the quality of exist outdoor playing fields. Objective 4: To support the development of local leagues and clubs to meet need within North East Lincolnshire, by supporting high levels of participation at clubs and working with local clubs which have achieved quality accreditation. The strategy recommends a 15 minute walk time distance threshold should be used to map pitch and non-pitch facilities in North East Lincolnshire52.

Playing pitches provide space for a wide range of sports within the Borough. There is particular provision for football, cricket, rugby, hockey, bowls, tennis, athletics, netball and rounders’ games. In addition there is limited provision for a number of small sports, including archery. Through application of a fifteen minute walk time, it is evident that the main settlement area is relatively well served by playing pitch facilities, with only minor gaps in provision.

Table 11.5: Playing Pitch Provision, Rural Area56

11.2.2 School Playing Pitch Provision It is worth noting that schools contribute a large number of playing pitches to the overall stock. However despite this, a significant proportion of North East Lincolnshire’s junior pitches are located at primary school sites which are generally not available for community use. Only four primary schools allow regular community use of their playing fields during term-time, however almost two thirds (64%) of schools do allow use of their playing field during holidays for coaching and other activities. This tends to be used for football training and clubs.

11.3 Fit for Purpose The NELC Playing Pitch Strategy, 2013 assessed the catchment areas of current playing pitch and non-pitch provision to identify deficiencies across North East Lincolnshire. A recommended 15 minute walk time distance threshold is applied to outdoor sports in North East Lincolnshire. Figures 11.1 and 11.2 illustrate where there are gaps in provision against the recommended 15 minute walk time:

It is evident that the main settlement areas, demonstrated by the darker areas of population density, are generally well served by playing pitch facilities and with only minor gaps in provision. There is limited provision within the rural area of North East Lincolnshire. For non-pitch facilities it is evident that the majority of main settlement areas are served by non-pitch facilities. A number of gaps exist in the more densely populated areas of the Urban Area, around Scartho, the Port Area and the Great Coates area of Grimsby, and within the Estuary Area, particularly around Immingham. | Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 92 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

11.4 Planned and Proposed Schemes The only proposed scheme relates to the cabinet decision in late 2015 to provide Recreational Open Space on the site of the decommissioned and demolished Grimsby Swimming Pool Site (Scartho Road). It is not yet confirmed whether this will be a playing pitch or different open space typology.

11.5 Impact of Development Proposals

11.5.1 Overview The proposed quantum of development will impact upon playing pitch demand across the next plan period. NELC’s emerging Local Plan provides a target playing pitch standard of 1.6ha per 1,000 population. However, at time of writing there is insufficient analysis available to determine how the borough is performing against this standard. Consideration of the appropriate level of provision by area is made more complicated by the fact that sporting participants often do not choose their sporting club (and thus venue) based solely on the proximity of their home to a facility. This is reflected in the guidance provided by many sport national governing bodies to local authorities on setting provision standards. Additionally club and area based issues such as team generation rates will mean that certain areas within the borough have a greater need for facilities than others. It is therefore difficult to understand exact gaps on an area by area basis. Despite this, the NELC Playing Pitch Strategy has identified a number of demand and supply based trends for pitches that will influence the need to increase the provision of certain types of pitches throughout the next plan period. Notwithstanding the issues set out above, it is clear that borough-wide growth will translate into an increase in demand for facilities. If this demand is not met by a sufficient increase in supply (either through new facilities or by better management and use of the existing stock), then this will result in a widening gap between the adequate provision standard and the actual ‘real-world’ provision of sports infrastructure. Based upon evidence in the NELC Playing Pitch Strategy it is highly likely that the proposed increase in housing growth will further contribute towards the identified trends and further exacerbate identified deficiencies. The approach to establishing new on site contributions for playing pitches (and other open space typologies) is set out in section 9.4. The emerging Local Plan commits the Council to reviewing open space standards through the production of an SPD following Local Plan adoption. This will be essential in order to accurately understand deficiencies in playing pitch provision.

11.5.2 Urban Area Within the Urban Area there are a significant number of junior football teams playing on or across adult football pitches. It is predicted that there will be growth

in mini-soccer and it is therefore vital that all current sites are protected from development. The undersupply of junior pitches should be rectified through the conversion of senior pitches into junior pitches and through increased community use of school sites. Demand exists for a second large multi-pitch site linked to Bradley Football Development Centre, and for further renovation works to the Peaks Lane/ Bradley Sports site. A large deficiency of cricket pitches is identified as a result of the large number of senior teams playing in the area which is likely to increase with a projected increase in population in the area. Overplayed sites include Cleethorpes, Grimsby Town and King George V Playing Fields. All current sites should be protected and clubs supported to increase the availability of practice wickets for juniors. Securing access to artificial wickets at school sites will also help additional demand to be catered for. Demand for rugby pitches is high; reflected in the large number of teams being accommodated at Grimsby RFC, the high levels of overplay and quality issues associated with the pitches. In the long-term additional pitches, particularly rugby league, will be needed. Grimsby RFC has aspirations to develop an area of land on the site (which is currently a poor quality floodlit training area) that could support training. The proposed quantum of development in the NELC Urban Area will therefore likely further inflate demand for junior football pitches which are already acknowledged as being undersupplied across the analysis area. Similarly, cricket pitch undersupply issues will also be exacerbated by the quantum of growth in this area. The development of housing in this area could also give rise to further demand for rugby pitches.

11.5.3 Western and Southern Arc Bearing similarity to the issues identified in the urban area, there are significant numbers of junior teams playing on or across adult pitches and a number of sites which are also overplayed. As with the urban area current sites should be protected from development, and the undersupply of junior pitches should be rectified through the conversion of senior pitches into junior pitches and through increased community use of school sites. Demand exists to increase cricket pitch capacity. In this case, it is vital that all current sites are protected. Where feasible, consideration should be given to the development of additional wickets at Butt Lane Playing Fields. Demand for rugby pitches in the area is high; reflected in the large number of teams being accommodated at Lucarlys and the high levels of overplay. In the long-term additional pitches will be needed to accommodate Cleethorpes RFC. The quantum of housing development proposed will likely contribute toward increasing the known deficits in junior football pitches, cricket pitches and rugby pitches. There may be a role for the large strategic allocation at Grimsby West to include pitch provision on site as part of the overall open space requirement, thereby going some way to rectify the acknowledged deficiencies.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

11.5.4 Estuary Zone In the Estuary Zone there are small deficiencies in junior and mini football pitches whilst there is a slight oversupply of adult pitches. The undersupply of junior football pitches could be rectified through the conversion of senior pitches at the Immingham Resource Centre into Junior Pitches, whilst senior football should be transferred to Roval Drive. An emerging demand for rugby league has also identified within the Estuary Zone and consideration should be given to the development of a pitch suitable for rugby league. There is some demand to increase existing site capacity for cricket play. It is vital that all current sites are protected, and where feasible, consideration should be given to the development of additional wickets particularly at Roval Drive. Further housing development in the Estuary Zone will likely give rise to further demand for rugby league, cricket and football pitches.

11.5.5 Rural Area In the Rural Area there is spare capacity in terms of football pitch provision, however it is recommended in the Council’s Playing Pitch Strategy that this is maintained for future team generation. It is therefore unlikely that the small quantity of growth forecast for the Rural Area will have a significant impact upon pitch provision, and the spare capacity across the existing provision could be utilised to fulfil any potential increase in demand arising from the proposed quantum of growth in the Rural Area.

11.6 Delivery and Responsibilities In the majority of cases, NELC will likely be the body responsible for the delivery of new Playing Pitch Provision. In some cases sports clubs and private operators of sites will be responsible for the delivery of new facilities. Policy 12 of the emerging North East Lincolnshire Local Plan requires strategic housing sites to ensure that the local infrastructure requirements are met, including playing pitch provision. On strategic sites there may be an opportunity for site developers to provide additional playing pitches on-site as part of their wider scheme design. Across the next plan period, funding for sports provision will likely come from the following revenue streams:  NELC capital and revenue funding;  Sport England;  Developer Obligations (S106 contributions/Community Infrastructure Levy/On-site provision)

11.7 Summary of Infrastructure With the exception of the Rural Areas analysis area, all parts of the borough are considered to deficient in terms of playing pitch provision. In general the borough experiences a shortage of provision in terms of quantity, with several facilities suffering from overplaying. This could be rectified through the delivery of new facilities or in part through a different approach to management on a site by site basis. It is likely that the quantum of growth proposed through the Local Plan will further exacerbate existing deficiencies in provision and NELC may wish to explore a combination of developer contributions and on-site provision at strategic sites to rectify this situation. The emerging Local Plan includes open space standard that new development must meet, and also commits the Council to reviewing open space standards through the production of an SPD following Local Plan adoption. This will be essential in order to accurately understand deficiencies in playing pitch provision. Table 11.6: Summary of Playing Pitch Infrastructure (see Figure 18.1 for full details)

12 Health: Primary Care

12.1 Information Sources The following sources have been used to populate this section:  Dialogue with Head of Primary Care at NHS England, North Yorkshire and Humber (2015).  NHS Property team.  Dialogue with the North East Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group.

12.2 Strategic Context

The North East Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group is a clinically-led statutory NHS body responsible for the planning and commissioning of health care services for the local area (over 165,000 people within North East Lincolnshire). By working in partnership with North East Lincolnshire Council the CCG is able to deliver joined-up health and adult social care services for local people. Historically the health and adult social care budgets were combined and the CCG are continuing to work in this way because it allows them to provide more seamless care for patients. Public health has now been transferred from the NHS to North East Lincolnshire Council. Advances in healthcare setting ever-higher standards, alongside national reforms to care administration and ever-tightening NHS budgets, have resulted in significant challenges at the local level in North East Lincolnshire. The North East Lincolnshire CCG (in partnership with the North Lincolnshire CCG) has developed a shared programme to develop a vision for sustainable healthcare to overcome these pressures. This programme is called Healthy Lives Healthy Futures and it is aimed at ensuring a comprehensive service which supports prevention and self-care, an integrated approach, higher quality care and an affordable service. One essential element of these reforms will be an accessible primary-care service. The North East Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group Case for Change document identified three aspects which will be the focus for change:  Prevention: There is a need for improved emphasis on preventative care for patients  Quality of GP Care: Although generally good, patient satisfaction with their GP varies across the Northern Lincolnshire region  Access to primary-care: The number of primary-care professionals is lower in the region than the national average, and weekend access to primary-care professionals is below average. North East Lincolnshire CCG has undertaken work to set out their expectations relating to standards of care that all patients should receive, based on guidelines

Care Centres exist across the local authority including Cromwell Road Primary Care Centre, Cleethorpes Primary Care Centre, Stirling Street Centre, Weelsby View Health Centre and Freshney Green Primary Care Centre. In many instances these PCCs also provide accommodation for other community services, including pharmacy and dental provision. Despite substantial investment in the PCCs there are still opportunities to optimise the utilisation of the sites, and there are capacity issues in terms of actual numbers of general practitioners within some of the centres

12.3.3 Dental Practices There are 20 dental practices providing NHS dental services across North East Lincolnshire, one of which is a Minor Oral Surgery provider. A community dental service and an out-of-hours dental service are available in Grimsby. Correspondence with the Primary Care Commissioning Support Manager for North confirmed that there does not appear to be any existing capacity within NHS dental practices and no practices within North East Lincolnshire are currently accepting NHS patients. Some practices however do on occasion accept additional patients should a space become available. However, on-going assessment of dental year end performance indicates that most practices are fulfilling their contract.

12.3.4 Pharmacy Provision North East Lincolnshire Council’s Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (‘PNA’) assesses the provision of pharmaceutical services across the area and how these meet the needs of the population between the years 2015-2018. The study notes that there are 35 pharmacies within the borough operated by 17 different contractors. Analysis within the study observes that the geographical coverage of pharmacies is good and it is unlikely that NHS England will need to encourage new facilities. However improvements in services are also underway, and an additional three pharmacies are due to begin offering Appliance Use Review services within the next 12 months, and an additional pharmacy is due to offer Stoma Appliance Customisation. There is no minor ailment enhanced service in North East Lincolnshire. The provision of, and access to, pharmaceutical services in North East Lincolnshire is overall. Overall, the PNA demonstrates that the borough’s pharmacies are of a high quality.

12.4 Fit for Purpose

12.4.1 General Practices As a result of extensive estates investment in PCCs there are no known shortages of GP facilities and very few GPs or primary care facilities of a notably poor

quality. Capacity issues largely relate to known staffing issues and the need to utilise the existing stock of practices differently. There are a number of strategies that NHS England, working jointly with the CCG, will be employing in coming years to deal with capacity issues. One such example could be collaboration between practices, for example to create a single reception area, thus pooling resources. This will in part address capacity issues as resources are shared. In order to ensure access for the local population to high quality and sustainable GP services, future commissioning arrangements will mean that there is a general move away from commissioning smaller GP surgeries towards larger practices.

12.4.2 Dental Practices Generally the provision of dental facilities in North East Lincolnshire is inconsistent across the borough, with practices often operating from converted residential properties rather than a purpose built premises. There may be a need to commission new services in future in order to provide additional capacity. However at the current time there is no additional funding available to commission additional NHS dental activity. If funding was secured, a procurement exercise would have to be undertaken to commission an additional practice or service. This would be determined by regional dental strategy.

12.4.3 Pharmacies As pharmacies operate as commercial enterprises, when demand for a pharmacy service arises, this will usually be filled speculatively, either by new businesses or the expansion of existing pharmacies. Pharmacies are often choosing to locate within PCCs. It is not currently thought that NHS England will need to encourage the provision of pharmacies across North East Lincolnshire. As pharmacies are commercial enterprises it is not known whether there are any plans to expand provision across the borough.

12.5 Planned Provision Changes to the way care services are delivered through the introduction of Primary Care Centres and their contribution of integrated services have reduced the need for further planned provision of primary care. Currently, there are no future primary care facilities planned across North East Lincolnshire.

12.5.1 General Practices In December 2014 the government announced a four year Primary Care Infrastructure Fund to accelerate improvements to GP premises’ and other infrastructure such as IT. General Practices are invited to submit proposals for investment to the fund, which are then assessed on their relative merits and allocations made accordingly.

Across North East Lincolnshire there are presently five bids that have been made to the fund. Table 12.2 (below) shows those bids where funding has been agreed in principle: Table 12.2: GP Practices Investment in Principle 2015/16

CCG Lead Practice 2015/16 Funding Population Request (by banding) NE Lincs. CCG Beacon Medical £501k to £1m 80,572 NE Lincs. CCG The Roxton Practice Less than £100k 17,373 [1] NE Lincs.

Owing to the large investment in PCCs in recent years these proposals are for relatively minor additions to existing surgeries, rather than wholesale new premises. Based on the planned residential development across North East Lincolnshire, and the predicted population increases, the Strategic Planning department of the North East Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group are monitoring large scale housing allocations / planning applications and will reflect the provision of primary care accordingly. The Primary Care Infrastructure Fund will provide up to 66% of the cost of works, with the remaining amount match funded by the practices themselves. The buildings from which GPs operate are fully funded by NHS England, either directly if the building is rented, or through a ‘notional rent’ if the facility is owned by the practice. This is based upon the area of floor-space that the surgery occupies. Therefore should the bids for funding be successful the amount that has been match-funded by the surgeries will effectively be reimbursed through higher rates of notional rent, in some cases allowing the practices to finance their contribution against this future increase.

12.5.2 Dental Practices Generally the provision of dental facilities in North East Lincolnshire is inconsistent across the borough, with practices often operating from converted residential properties rather than a purpose built premises. Two NHS dental practices are noted to have no existing capacity, whilst 2 practices have been identified as underperforming within the area. A recent survey undertaken by the NHS has shown that there are no practices accepting NHS patients in the borough, although some practices do take patients on occasionally if a space becomes available.

12.5.3 Pharmacy Provision Pharmacies operate as commercial enterprises and as a result coverage across the borough is widespread. Pharmacies are often located within PCCs or within close proximity. It is felt that the geographical coverage of pharmacies is good and it is unlikely that NHS England will need to encourage new facilities.

12.6 Impact of Development Proposals

12.6.1 General Practices There are a number of strategies that NHS England, working jointly with the CCG, will be employing in coming years to deal with capacity issues. One such example could be collaboration between practices, for example to create a single reception area, thus pooling resources. This will in part address capacity issues as resources are shared. In order to ensure access for the local population to high quality and sustainable GP services, future commissioning arrangements will mean that there is a general move away from commissioning smaller GP surgeries towards larger practices. In December 2014 the government announced a four year Primary Care Infrastructure Fund to accelerate improvements in GP premises and other infrastructure such as IT. General Practices are invited to submit proposals for investment to the fund, which are then assessed on their relative merits and allocations made accordingly. Across North East Lincolnshire there are presently four bids that have been made to the fund for schemes that would provide increased capacity within the borough. Owing to the large investment in PCCs in recent years these proposals are for relatively minor additions to existing surgeries, rather than wholesale new premises. The Primary Care Infrastructure Fund will provide up to 66% of the cost of works, with the remaining amount match funded by the practices themselves. The buildings from which GPs operate are fully funded by NHS England, either directly if the building is rented, or through a ‘notional rent’ if the facility is owned by the practice. This is based upon the area of floor-space that the surgery occupies. Therefore should the bids for funding be successful the amount that has been match-funded by the surgeries will effectively be reimbursed through higher rates of notional rent, in some cases allowing the practices to finance their contribution against this future increase.

12.6.2 Dental Care In future it is likely that NHS dentists will be encouraged to locate in health centres and PCCs alongside GP practices. There may be a need to commission new services, however this would be driven through the planning application process and delivered incrementally. No additional funding currently exists to invest in NHS dentistry at the present time.

12.6.3 Pharmacies As pharmacies operate as commercial enterprises, when demand for a pharmacy service arises, this will usually be filled speculatively, either by new businesses or the expansion of existing pharmacies. Pharmacies are often choosing to locate within PCCs. As pharmacies are commercial enterprises it is not known whether there are any plans to expand provision across the borough.

12.7 Funding Mechanisms Owing to the austerity measures, spending on the NHS by Central Government has seen minimal growth. To maintain standards of service across Northern Lincolnshire, with increasing demands on healthcare and rising inflation, there has been a need to make cash and efficiency savings amounting to approximately 20% of the overall health budget between 2012 and 2015. This is a programme of savings and reorganisation known as the ‘Nicholson Challenge’ which ultimately reduces the absolute level of funding available for primary care. As part of a round of additional funding announced by central government in December 2014, the Primary Health Care Infrastructure Fund is a four year £1bn. investment programme that aims to accelerate improvements to GP premises and infrastructure (e.g. I.T.). The fund ties in closely with the NHS Five Year Forward View, published in October 2014 that seeks to create a forward vision for the future of the NHS. In January 2015 general practices were invited to submit proposals for investment in infrastructure to enable improved access to clinical services and support the delivery of new services to reduce emergency admissions. If a proposal is successful, a grant from the fund will cover between 66%-100% of the total costs, with the remaining balance covered through match funding.

13 Health: Secondary Care

13.1 Information Sources The following sources have been used to populate this section:  Dialogue with Head of Primary Care at NHS England, North Yorkshire and Humber (2015); and  Dialogue with the North East Lincolnshire CCG (2015)  Dialogue with the Estate Manager from the Northern Lincolnshire and Hospital Trust

13.2 Strategic Issues and Existing Provision Secondary or 'acute' care is received in hospital. This includes surgery, planned specialist medical care and unplanned surgery and emergency care. Secondary care is provided in North East Lincolnshire by the Northern Lincolnshire & Goole Hospital Foundation Trust. In 2013, following the findings of the Keogh Mortality Review which highlighted a high mortality rate for patients receiving care, the Trust was placed on special measures. Following this action, a ‘Review of Key Findings and Action Plan’ was produced for the Trust focussing on the quality of provision and ways that it could improve. These priority measures were focussed upon improvements in the quality of provision rather than improvements in infrastructure provision. The Trust was subsequently removed from the Special Measures register in July 2014. As a result it is not likely that further additions to the current infrastructure or NHS estate will be required with the emphasis having firmly been placed upon qualitative improvements. Secondary care is provided at Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital located in Scartho Road, Grimsby. The site provides 458 beds; and provides an Intensive Treatment Unit (ITU) and Accident and Emergency (A&E) facility.

13.3 Fit for Purpose As set out in section 13.2, gaps in provision have been more acute in the quality of operations, as opposed to the quality of the asset or gaps in accessibility. The Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital had been identified as part of the Keogh Mortality Review as failing, and was subsequently placed on special measures. The ‘Key Findings and Action Plan’ produced to secure improvements to the Hospital made improvements to quality of provision and its recommendations did not relate to infrastructure, focussing instead on how the trust operates and provides services. A discussion with the NHS’s Area Strategic Estates Planner confirmed that there are no direct gaps in provision in relation to infrastructure (i.e. buildings).

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 105 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

13.4 Planned Provision As a result of a positive estate strategy and budget reforms, it has been confirmed that there are no planned provisions for additional NHS buildings or acquisitions. Changes to provision will be most apparent in the way care is delivered and through reconfiguration strategies. Gaps in the quality of service will therefore be satisfied through a transformation to the methods of administering care. This will result in hospital care becoming the last resort, with other modes of care taking greater precedent. The Trust will need to continue to implement the key Findings and Action Plan which produced as part of the Keogh Mortality Review.

13.5 Impact of Development Proposals At present, quality of service is not reflected in the hospital assets themselves and there is no known expected shortages or planned expansions of hospital facilities across North East Lincolnshire. Whilst there is technically a gap in the quality of provision of secondary care in North East Lincolnshire, there is no identified funding gap, as the required improvements will need to be funded through Central Government funding. Nevertheless the delivery of secondary care at Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital should be monitored, as the provision of high quality secondary care will support the growth aspirations in North East Lincolnshire and make the Borough more attractive for inward investment.

13.6 Funding Mechanisms Funding available for secondary care in North East Lincolnshire derives from national health care funding which is based on a per capita basis. This funding allocation is adjusted for levels of deprivation within the local authority area.

13.7 Summary of Infrastructure It is unlikely that the quantum of growth proposed within the Local Plan will give rise to a need for additional secondary care facilities. A number of measures have been implemented across the North East Lincolnshire in recent years that have largely focussed upon qualitative improvements. It is considered that these improvements will be sufficient enough so as to accommodate growth across the plan period. It has been confirmed that there will not be an increase in the number of built secondary care facilities. It is not considered that there is a gap in infrastructure for secondary health care. Continual monitoring of secondary health provision through the course of the Local Plan period should be undertaken to ensure it remains fit for purpose.

14 Emergency Services

14.1 Information Sources This section covers provision of Emergency Services Infrastructure. For the purposes of this Study, Emergency Services includes the Fire, Ambulance and Police services covering the North East Lincolnshire borough. The following sources of information have been used to populate this chapter:  Discussion with representatives from the Humberside Fire and Rescue Service and Humberside Police Service.  It has not been possible to carry out a phone interview with a representative of the East Midlands Ambulance Service. They will consulted further during the Local Plan Consultation period.

14.2 Current Infrastructure and Fitness for Purpose

14.2.1 Fire & Rescue Service Fire & Rescue coverage in North East Lincolnshire is provided by the Humberside Fire and Rescue Service (‘HFaRS’). HFaRS operates from the following facilities within the borough: Cleethorpes: Part time Crew with 1x TRV (Tactical Response Vehicle. Immingham East: Full time crew with 1 fire engine, 1 HAZMAT vehicle, 1 x Foam combi-sled unit, 1 x foam delivery sled. Peaks Lane: Full time crew with 3x Fire Engines, 1x hydraulic platform, 1x 4x4 with rescue boat, 2 x flood rafts (also the North East Lincolnshire administrative hub). Waltham: Part time crew with 1x TRV (Tactical Response Vehicle). Cromwell Road: Community based station with appliance from Peaks Lane to cover evenings (NB temporary).

14.2.2 Police Service Policing across North East Lincolnshire is provided by Humberside Police who serve the borough from the following facilities:  Grimsby Police Station: Main police station.  Cleethorpes Police Station: Cleethorpes.  Cleethorpes North: Grimsby.  Grimsby South: Grimsby.  Grimsby North: Grimsby.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

 Immingham Police Station: Immingham (planned to relocate to Civic Centre/Community Hub from April 2016).

14.2.3 Ambulance Service North East Lincolnshire is currently served by the East Midlands Ambulance Service who operate from the following facilities:  Grimsby Ambulance Station. In addition a number of ambulance stations lie outside, but within close proximity to the North East Lincolnshire Boundary, namely Barton Ambulance Station and Scunthorpe Ambulance Station. East Midlands Ambulance Service services include:  Emergency care and transport of patients.  Paramedic services at incidents and medical emergencies.  Diagnosis and treatment or referral for minor illnesses and injuries.  Responding to major incidents and emergencies with the specialist Hazardous Area Response Team (HART) and with air ambulance colleagues.  Additional services include events medial cover, a rapid response vehicle operated by a paramedic or doctor and a cave rescue support service.

14.3 Planned Schemes

14.3.1 Fire Service HFaRS is currently working on initiatives that focus upon fire prevention. The aims of these initiatives are to reduce the number of instances the service is required to attend. A reduction in the number of calls that the service receives would change the profile of HFaRS services. Initiatives are also underway nationally to pursue closer working between the fire, health, police, and ambulance services. The final outcomes of this work are yet to be completed. Like other public services, HFaRS is facing times of budgetary constraint and pressure to utilise resources more effectively. This has seen a changing pattern of service provision across the borough, with Waltham and Cleethorpes Fire Station reducing the size of their fire appliance to a smaller but more versatile TRV. There are no plans at this time to create new facilities or increase service provision across North East Lincolnshire to be above the current level.

14.3.2 Police Service Like the Fire Service, Humberside Police is facing times of budgetary constraint and pressure to utilise resources more effectively. A constabulary-wide review of assets is currently being undertaken, however the results of this are not yet finalised. The Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside has committed to

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 108 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

maintaining the number of community contact points across the borough and therefore it is not likely that if buildings are vacated, if alternative arrangements were to be required they would be put in place prior to existing arrangements being removed. Operational and specialist policing teams are based in main stations located across the force area to enable a demand led response. Community policing teams are based in stations located within smaller geographic areas, as well as using community facilities as police contact points. Since the 1st April 2015 Humberside Police has changed the way services are delivered. This means that Humberside Police now provide services across Humberside (regardless of Local Authority boundaries). Community teams however retain their geographic presence and focus. It is currently unclear how the new operating structure will impact on the requirement for individual police stations. A review of the current infrastructure has been undertaken and matched against the new operating model, however a period of bedding in and reflection is currently in place to enable flexibility of delivery following the comprehensive Force-wide change. In light of the changes set out above, there are currently no plans to create additional new facilities, however Immingham Police Station will relocate to the Immingham Civic Centre/Community Hub from April 2016. The funding for this move is from within Humberside Police’s existing budget and therefore does not represent a funding gap.

14.3.3 Ambulance Service The 2014/2015 EMAS annual report details a number of planned improvements that will be introduced over the 2015/16 financial year. This includes: the introduction of additional dispatch functions to address urgent journeys and incident command capabilities; enhancement of command and control systems to optimise computer-aided dispatch decision support; and the enhancement of the Clinical Assessment team processes and systems to maximise on its capability and productivity with a focus on recruitment, retention and specialist functions. Like other emergency service providers, these improvements largely focus upon qualitative improvements to services rather than further provision of built facilities.

14.4 Impact of Development Proposals

14.4.1 Fire Service HFaRS maintains a model that monitors risk in geographical areas based upon a number of factors including housing stock, historic data and demographics. The HFaRS aim to be able to attend a fire in a dwelling in low risk areas in 20 minutes, medium risk areas in 12 minutes and at a high risk area in 8 minutes on 90% of occasions. Provision of services are determined therefore by risk.

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 109 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

There are a number of different factors involved in determining risk, for example housing types, industrial premises, socio-economic factors, and age profile of occupants. It is therefore difficult to predict how the proposed no. of dwellings will impact upon service provision. This could, for example, impact on the services provided at Waltham station should the proposed development go ahead, but further details on the socio-demographic profiling would be required by HF&RS to accurately determine if these developments would have any effect on the area’s risk profile.

14.4.2 Police Service The existing police stations together with the new service delivery model should provide adequate coverage for the proposed development quantum across the borough. Discussions with the Police Service noted however that the large strategic sites could present an issue for service provision as they may require the retention of facilities that could otherwise be considered for rationalisation. If the larger housing sites require the retention of all the borough’s existing facilities then this would effectively constitute the provision of additional facilities. This is because the overall size of the estate would not be reduced, despite the potential to do so. There are no identified funding streams for the retention of all existing facilities, or for the provision of further facilities. Funding is usually provided through central government or through the council tax policing precept. Humberside Police is consulted on major planning applications, including highway proposals. This allows them to factor development into their operating models. They will flag up any particular site by site issues through this process.

14.4.3 Ambulance Service It is difficult to assess the likely impact of housing growth upon ambulance provision across the borough, however as housing delivery would be phased incrementally it is likely that ambulance provision could grow in parallel. Any funding for new facilities would need to come from Department for Health (DfH) funding. It has not been possible to confirm the exact impact of the Local Plan proposals as it has not been possible to speak to a representative of the East Midlands Ambulance Service.

14.5 Summary of Emergency Service Infrastructure

14.5.1 Humberside Fire and Rescue HFaRS provide the Fire and Rescue Service across North East Lincolnshire. Dialogue with the HFaRS has acknowledged that the existing Fire and Rescue estate will be reduced in size in coming years to realise efficiency savings. High level housing distribution figures indicate that the Waltham, Humberston and New Waltham areas will accommodate approximately 4,000 – 5,000 dwellings. This could result in the requirement to retain Waltham Fire Station and

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 110 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

preclude it from consideration as part of the wider estates rationalisation programme. Should the planned growth result in Waltham Fire Station’s retention, this will constitute an additional provision for which there is currently no identified funding. Existing funding streams open to Humberside Fire and Rescue include Central Government Funding, Council Tax precepts, the Fire Transformation Fund (or similar) and revenue generated by a HFRS trading company, HFR Solutions, which is a controlled company of Humberside Fire Authority. Notwithstanding the issues along the borough’s western and southern arc (set out above), it is considered that there is no funding gap for the provision of fire services in North East Lincolnshire. Should however the emerging estates strategy dictate that Waltham Fire Station is no longer required, but risk modelling of the planned quantum of growth suggest a need for its retention, this would constitute a funding gap.

14.5.2 Humberside Police Humberside Police have put in place a new service delivery model that will increase efficiencies and allow the provision of police services in a more flexible manner. It is therefore expected that this should provide adequate coverage for the proposed development quantum across the borough. The Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside is keen to explore potential opportunities to co-locate appropriate police services with other public services. Such opportunities would be funded from any estate rationalisation process. If additional accommodation was required, and no rationalisation could be achieved there would be a funding gap.

14.5.3 East Midlands Ambulance Service The East Midlands Ambulance Service provides coverage across the borough from Grimsby Ambulance station. The 2014/2015 EMAS annual report details a number of planned improvements that will be introduced over the 2015/16 financial year, however these improvements will mainly be qualitative and will not extend to additional built facilities.

This chapter was originally drafted in late 2015, however it has been reviewed as part of the August/September 2016 update to reflect the minor changes in housing distribution pattern that have arisen since the original assessment.

15.2 Current Infrastructure

15.2.1 Overview The Local Authority (‘LA’) has a statutory duty to provide educational services for pupils of school age living within the Borough. In addition to the LA provision, a number of academies, independent schools and colleges also operate within the area. The following educational establishments exists within the North East Lincolnshire area:  2 Nursery Schools.  47 Primary, Junior and Infant Providers.  10 Secondary Academies.  2 Special Academies.  2 Pupil Referral Units Academies.  3 Independent Schools.  2 Colleges.

15.2.2 Primary Provision North East Lincolnshire is well served by primary providers, with 47 schools/academies spread across the geographic area. For the purpose of Primary School pupil place planning, the Borough is split up into 16 Pupil Place Planning Areas and split into individual primary providers in Table 13.1.

15.3.2 Secondary Provision There is an existing shortage in secondary school places, which will begin to impact from 2016 intake. This shortfall related to an increased birth rate, and is currently being realised across primary providers.

15.4 Planned Schemes

15.4.1 Primary Provision To date the LA and its providers have created an additional circa 1,900 places (across 7 year groups) to meet the rising birth rate. This year on year growth currently is still increasing, with the LA closely monitoring numbers and sites capacities.

15.4.2 Secondary Provision The LA is already exploring the option of a new 500 place secondary school to meet the incumbent demand of the rising birth rate. Some providers have had capacity to grow on their sites helping the LA to meet the additional numbers which begin to impact from 2016. Any new significant housing developments (outside of the Immingham area) will adversely affect secondary provision but until yield starts to be realised and parental choice is reduced, it is difficult to specify which sites will require additional places.

15.5 Impact of Development Proposals

15.5.1 Overview For new development proposals, North East Lincolnshire Council currently sets its education provision requirement of:  1 primary school place per 4 dwellings.  1 secondary school place per 5 dwellings. This is attributable to an identified birth-rate trend that will equate to a need for primary school provision in years 1-6 of the plan and then subsequently a need for secondary places. Based upon this multiplier, the Local Plan’s quantum of growth will give rise to a requirement for the following number of school places across the borough set out in Table 13.2 and 13.3. NELC has drafted a number of proposals to deal with the need for additional primary and secondary school places. Assessment work undertaken by the Council shows where there is unfilled capacity within the borough’s existing primary and secondary schools, and accordingly this surplus has then been deducted from the total number of places required.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

In the majority of cases a combination of pre-existing school place surpluses and the expansion of existing schools will provide a sufficient number of places to accommodate this increased demand.

15.5.2 Primary Provision The following measures are being pursued to increase capacity within the school system to accommodate the predicted growth in primary school pupil numbers. Table 15.1: Requirements for Primary School Capacity Improvements

School place planning Requirement Comments areas for new primary places Immingham Yes Two sites have been chosen as suitable for expansion, Eastfield and Allerton.

Humberston Not Both sites who serve this area could be expanded. immediately, If expansion of these schools is required this but predicted would be funded through developer contributions development (S106 or CIL). yield eventually impact and require growth Cleethorpes Area1 Yes Options are being investigated to provide a new Primary School at the former Matthew Humberstone Secondary Lower School site. The new school would be occupied by an existing relocated primary academy which would grow from 210 places to 315 places. This site will allow for further growth should pupil yield be realised from new housing within the area. The site could grow to a 630 place provider funded from developer contributions (S106 or CIL). Cleethorpes Area 2 Yes There is one site with the ability to increase by a further 105 places if required. If expansion of this school is required this would be funded through developer contributions (S106 or CIL). Grimsby Area 1 Yes There is one site that could be expanded using Northeast of Grimsby developer contributions (S106 or CIL). Grimsby Area 2 Yes There are no sites in this place planning area with West of the Port of the ability to grow further, however increased Grimsby capacity at the former Matthew Humberstone site (Cleethorpes Area 1) will alleviate pressure on existing schools in Grimsby Area 1.

School place planning Requirement Comments areas for new primary places Grimsby Area 4 Yes The Grimsby West site is located in this planning North and Southwest of area. To meet demand for new primary school Grimsby places the existing primary schools/academies will be expanded and the developers of the site have been asked to provide a site for a new primary school. This will be funded through developer contributions (S106 or CIL). Grimsby Area 5 Yes The Grange Primary School can expand to Southwest of Grimsby. accommodate the likely increasing numbers. This will be funded through developer contributions (S106 or CIL). Grimsby Area 6 N/A Currently there is no new development planned in Southwest of Grimsby. this area. Scartho Yes In the Scartho area there are two primary providers that have been identified as able to expand. This will be funded through developer contributions (S106 or CIL). The remaining two providers could expand but the sites are problematic. However due to the location of the new housing developments currently a further option is being explored, with regard to the Government’s new agenda. Waltham Village Yes In Waltham Village there are three options being explored (Sep 2015) to facilitate the requirement for additional primary pupil places. Option 1: Relocate the existing provider to a new site within the village and at the same time expand it by 105 places. The expansion site may require relocation of existing playing pitches. Options 2: Provide a second primary provider for Waltham within land that has been safeguarded. Option 3: The existing site could be grown by a further 105 places with careful planning. The Local Plan identifies two potential sites for primary provision. This measure could be funded by the LA, developer contributions (S106 or CIL), S77 and receipts from education land disposals. New Waltham Yes In New Waltham Section 106 contributions in addition to corporate resources ‘top-up’ would be required to grow the two existing primary providers to create an additional 90 spaces at Enfield Academy and 105 places at New Waltham Primary Academy.

School place planning Requirement Comments areas for new primary places funded through developer contributions (S106 or CIL). Laceby Yes It has been identified that the provider in Laceby Village, could be grown if required, and the former library site to the east has been identified as available if required. This will be funded through developer contributions (S106 or CIL).

15.5.3 Secondary School Provision The following measures are being pursued to increase capacity within the school system to accommodate the predicted growth in secondary school pupil numbers. Table 15.2: Requirements for Secondary School Capacity Improvements

School place planning Requirement Comments areas for new secondary places Immingham. No There is sufficient spare existing capacity at Area 1 the secondary site to cope with any pupil yield from new housing development. Cleethorpes/Grimsby and Yes Cleethorpes Academy (capacity was 900 surrounding area. pupils now rising to 1000 pupils) has increased Area 2 within its existing building by a further 100 places (this will be achieved of five years from September 2015).

Holy Family Catholic Academy (500 places), this site could be grown by a further 400 places, but to achieve this growth the site would require significant investment via Section 106 contributions / CIL.

Humberston Academy (capacity is currently 825 pupils, has indicated that it may rise to 900 pupils) Has specified that currently it does not wish to expand beyond that figure.

Oasis Wintringham Academy could increase capacity by 100 places from its current 900 place capacity within its existing buildings.

Havelock Academy (was 960 now rising to 1000) has (September 2015) grown by a further 40 places (to be achieved over five years).

Ormiston Maritime Academy (950 places) is situated upon a restricted site without the ability to house further growth.

Healing Academy (was 850 now rising to 1000) has (September 2015) grown by a further 150 places (to be achieved over five years).

John Whitgift Academy (750 places) has the potential to grow to in excess of 1,000 places, but would require significant investment via Section 106 contributions / CIL.

Tollbar Academy (1800 places) has intimated that it would be willing to expand by a further 100 places (achieved over five years) if pupil yield dictates. There would be a need to secure Section 106 contributions / CIL to fund this expansion

A new 500 place secondary school is required in Cleethorpes Town Centre Area to meet planned growth levels. New secondary school provision is required in Cleethorpes and may be accommodated by the relocation of an existing secondary school to Grimsby Town Centre (not Cleethorpes) and improved capacity of the existing school facility

Note: all the planning areas with a Yes indicator are subject to a further assessment of pupil yield once developments have commenced.

15.6 Delivery and Responsibilities The responsibility for the delivery of new pupil places rests with NELC as the Local Authority. A number of funding streams are available to NELC to deliver new pupil places. This includes a government Basic Need allocation, direct funding from the Education Funding Agency, direct funding to support building of new schools, Section 106 agreements, and, in the case of Grimsby West, the delivery of new on-site provision by the strategic allocation’s developer. New pupil places arising as a result of new development will largely be funded through Section 106 contributions. The majority of circumstances the requirement for new places can be absorbed across the existing providers, and therefore Section 106 monies will largely fund the further expansion of existing providers. Through its existing planning policy NELC has maintained a successful track record of securing Section 106 agreements towards the provision new pupil places. NELC will maintain this policy direction into the next plan period through new Local Plan policy, which will aim to secure contributions towards both primary and secondary provision.

15.7 Summary of Infrastructure Following discussions with NELC’s Education team it has been confirmed that the number of pupil places required as a result of the NELC Local Plan can be accommodated across the existing education sites. A combination of expansion of certain sites and in some cases new provision altogether will accommodate the increased need. In terms of funding the overwhelming majority of alterations to existing facilities will be funded through Section 106 agreements. However there are certain instances where the LA will be required to utilise a combination of Basic Need Allocations and their own funding streams in order to make the necessary alterations to accommodate new pupil provision. In these instances NELC has a strategy in place and has identified funding streams. Therefore these schemes do not constitute a funding gap. In the instance of Grimsby West it is anticipated that the developer will be required to deliver a new primary school as part of the overall strategic allocation. It is envisaged that this will be fully funded by the developer and as such this does not constitute a funding gap. NELC are also requesting the provision of a 500 place secondary school from the developer at Grimsby West, in addition to provision of a site suitable of accommodating a primary school should the need arise.

16.2 Current Infrastructure

16.2.1 Leisure Facilities The operation of the Council’s Leisure Facilities transferred to Lincs Inspire Ltd a not for profit organisation in April 2013, Lincs Inspire Ltd. manages six sporting facilities, four libraries, as well as an arts and sports development service and a public archive function. Lincs Inspire is also responsible for the operation of Grimsby Auditorium, a multi-use theatre and conferencing centre. This is a key asset that stages a number of stage shows throughout the year, The building is considered to be in good condition for its age and whilst there is no funding gap specifically relating to its operation, Lincs Inspire regularly investigates alternate funding streams to support ongoing operation. In 2008 consultants Knight Kavanagh Page undertook a Leisure Facilities Review on behalf of NELC. The report’s conclusions have formed the basis of NELC’s, leisure facilities strategy. The recommendations of the plan have now largely been, or are due to be, implemented. Table 16.1: Existing Leisure Facility Provision

Notwithstanding the work to implement the new leisure facilities strategy, there remain some sites where there are notable condition issues with the building stock, notably at the Old Grimsby Leisure Centre which includes an Ice Rink and a health and wellbeing adapted gym. It has been identified that a full refurbishment of the building would be cost prohibitive, however the current strategy recommends replacing key elements such as the gym, bowls hall and sports hall. The new Grimsby Leisure Centre has been designed to accommodate a further phase of development should funding be available.

16.2.2 Cemeteries North East Lincolnshire Council is responsible for one crematorium located in Weelsby Avenue in Grimsby and two cemeteries, Scartho Road Cemetery and Cleethorpes Cemetery. The Council as a local authority has a statutory duty to make provision for the deceased and it is recognised that bereavement services are critical to the community of North East Lincolnshire. Age structure data from the Office for the National Statistics for North East Lincolnshire indicates that the local authority area is displaying characteristics of an ageing population. Whilst the total population within North East Lincolnshire remained fairly equal between 2001 and 2011, the proportion of older people grew with the population of over 75 year-olds increasing beyond national levels. During this time, the proportion of young people fell to mirror regional level. Historically the Cemeteries and Crematorium Service has generated revenue income for the Council through undertaking burials and cremations for residents of North East Lincolnshire and surrounding local authority areas. In 2009, a new private crematorium facility opened in Alford (near Louth). This new facility attracted cremations which previously would have been carried out at Grimsby Crematorium, although this has now subsided.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

In recent years the number of cremations and burials has remained constant at around ratio around 80% cremations and 20 % burial per annum. Average number of cremations per annum is 1610 with burials on two sites, Scartho Road average of 113 full burials / 110 cremated remains burials per annum and at the Cleethorpes site, 54 full burials / 44 cremated remains burials per annum. A new “Woodland” burial area opened in November 2014 within Scartho Road Cemetery with an approximate area of 37,41sqm, and 4 burials have taken place since the opening. There is sufficient space allocated within Scartho Road Cemetery. The Crematorium does not operate to full capacity, as it is capable of in excess of 2,500 per annum. Dialogue with North East Lincolnshire Council has confirmed that by a conservative estimate there are only 5-10 years of burial space at Cleethorpes cemetery remaining. Previous plans to expand the site into the former playing fields of the adjacent Lindsey Lower School have since been abandoned. Table 16.2: Remaining Years of Burial Capacity, Scartho Road Cemetery

16.2.3 Libraries The North East Lincolnshire Statutory Library Service is managed by Lincs Inspire. Prior to April 2015 Lincs Inspire had been operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of North East Lincolnshire Council, however they are now fully independent and operate as a contractor to the council. This fulfils the requirements placed upon the council by the Public Libraries and Museums Act, 1964, and the Public Records Act, 1958. The following table indicates the library stock across the NELC borough: Table 16.4: Existing Library Provision in North East Lincolnshire

* Usage levels disclosed by Lincs Inspire There are 4 core (statutory) libraries operated by Lincs Inspire, Cleethorpes Library, Grimsby Central Library, Immingham Library and Waltham Library. All statutory libraries have been transferred from NELC to Lincs Inspire. A further 5 community libraries provide a non-statutory service, with a possible further 1 community library under development. Libraries now operated by the community continue to have good footfall.

16.3 Fit for Purpose

16.3.1 Leisure Facilities Dialogue with the Chief Executive of Lincs Inspire Limited confirmed that it is not considered that there are gaps in leisure facility provision across North East Lincolnshire.

16.3.2 Cemeteries As a result of decreased mortality rate, increased available capacity at existing sites and the introduction of a private crematorium at Alford, there are currently no gaps identified in provision. Through assessing the mortality rate and remaining years for burial at each of the existing sites, the provision of burial land between 2015 and 2030 will be monitored by the North East Lincolnshire Cemeteries and Crematorium Registrar.

16.3.3 Libraries The existing geographical spread of libraries is considered to be good and in accordance with the Public Library Service Standards. There are known issues with the physical condition of some of the core libraries, with some known to be in need of investment. Continual review of service provision and the built stock will establish where there may be opportunities to accommodate libraries in other community buildings. This work has not been concluded.

16.4 Planned and Proposed Schemes

16.4.1 Leisure Facilities Following an NELC report on the 10th December 2012 that recommended the phased rationalisation of Grimsby Leisure Centre and Grimsby (Scartho) Swimming Pool, investment to the order of £8.4m has been channelled into the construction of a new facility to provide an eight lane 25m swimming pool with learner pool, wet changing facilities, health and fitness suite and studio space. As this has already been funded, its provision or continued operation do not constitute a funding gap. Cleethorpes Leisure Centre was originally built in the 1980s and has recently undergone refurbishment of the pool hall and changing facilities following the successful grant of Sport England Match funding and allocation of NELC capital funding. These works have fully refurbished the wet provision, created a new changing village, and provided a new roof and lighting. In addition Lincs Inspire have invested in the gym, introducing new state of the art fitness equipment. A funding gap remains to cover the essential refurbishment works to the dry-side of the building, including sports-hall, fitness studios and health suite. Immingham Pool has also been updated following successful allocation of capital funding and Sport England match funding. This has funded a full overhaul of the facility, including updating the facility’s plant equipment, new fitness studio, new roof and provision of a changing village. The provision or continued operation does not constitute a funding gap.

16.4.2 Cemeteries North East Lincolnshire Council are currently working to advance a business case to create a new organisation to deliver affordable funeral services. This could potentially involve linking the Cemeteries and Crematorium service with an existing funeral company to create a combined offer, providing full funeral director and burial/cremation services. This proposal has recently been taken to cabinet to request permission to begin soft market testing. Proposals are at an early stage and no decisions have yet been made about funding, though it is likely that much will be derived from the existing budget and private sector partners. Although the Capital Funding programme made a provision of £100,000 to cover cemeteries and crematoria for the financial year 2012/13, this has not been continued subsequently. Currently there is an estimated funding shortfall of circa £3m for the Service. If the Council decides to proceed with the new integrated cemeteries/crematorium and funeral director service, it is expected that the proceeds from this will contribute towards closing the identified funding gap. There are currently no proposals to provide an increase in capacity at Cleethorpes Cemetery. Although Scartho Road cemetery records a large amount of capacity, local burial preference will likely dictate spare capacity cannot be displaced from Cleethorpes cemetery to Scartho Road cemetery.

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

North East Lincolnshire Council’s Asset Management Team currently has funding in the region of £80/90k to undertake essential maintenance works to the chapels. This sum is for essential maintenance only.

16.4.3 Libraries There are no plans by NELC to increase the number of physical statutory libraries across the borough. However, community organisations continue to be supported in the delivery of non-statutory library services. There has been a notable rise in the usage of virtual and electronic facilities which will need to be taken into account when determining future provision needs. Whilst the borough’s libraries remain a popular resource for younger children, there has been a reduction in the number of older children who are using physical library facilities. Libraries for research purposes remain popular alongside access to family history and archive provisions.

16.5 Impact of Development Proposals

16.5.1 Leisure Facilities The forecast level of growth will likely correspond with an increase in demand for leisure facilities. This could impact upon the current level of service provision. There are no current plans for a net increase in the amount the stock of leisure facilities across the borough, the emphasis placed upon the refurbishment of existing facilities to ensure their continued fitness for purpose. Should the proposed level of development constitute an increased need for built leisure facilities due to an increase in demand, this would be considered a funding gap as there are no current funding streams allocated toward new provision.

16.5.2 Cemeteries The Council as a local authority has a statutory duty to make provision for the deceased and it is recognised that bereavement services are critical to the community of North East Lincolnshire. The level of growth proposed in the Local Plan will undoubtedly impact upon the borough’s cemetery and crematoria infrastructure. Whilst the council run site at Scartho Road records a significant level of remaining capacity, there are known capacity issues at the Cleethorpes site which the proposed quantum of growth will ultimately compound. North East Lincolnshire has historically been a popular retirement destination, which further exacerbates local need and capacity issues. If the proposed housing is occupied by incoming retirees, this could place further stress on the service. No decisions have yet been taken to determine how future capacity will be absorbed. There are a number of private cemeteries operating within the borough and the Council has arrangements with other providers which could accommodate some of the potential shortfall. In 2009, a new private crematorium facility

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

opened in Alford (near Louth) which has accommodated some of the need arising within the borough. At this stage it is unknown precisely how the proposed growth will impact upon the service.

16.5.3 Libraries The notable rise in the usage of virtual and electronic stock means that whilst demand will likely increase as a direct result of the growth pursued by NELC, it may not necessarily translate into an increase in footfall at the 4 libraries. It is therefore unlikely that the proposed housing development would give rise to a need for new facilities. A funding gap exists regarding the need for a suitable alternative Central Library provision as a result of the age and condition of the existing building. Ideally this would be accommodated in an existing building, however the cost of conversion and relocation would not be insignificant. There may be a role for future efficiency savings to be made, however this would be with a view to using the current stock more efficiently to maintain service provision, and would not represent a need to provide additional stock.

16.6 Delivery and Responsibilities

16.6.1 Leisure Facilities Leisure Facilities in North East Lincolnshire are operated by Lincs Inspire, a community interest company, on behalf of the Council. The organisation therefore receives funding from North East Lincolnshire Council to deliver these services. At this time there are no funding gaps associated with the provision of leisure services operated by Lincs Inspire.

16.6.2 Cemeteries & Crematoria NELC is responsible for the delivery of cemeteries and crematoria across the borough. There are known funding gaps in terms of the maintenance of existing infrastructure.

16.6.3 Libraries The delivery of library facilities is the responsibility of Lincs Inspire. There are currently no planned schemes to increase the number of libraries within the borough, though continual review of service provision and the built stock will establish where there may be opportunities to accommodate libraries in other community buildings. It is not currently thought that the provision of library services across the NELC borough constitutes a funding gap.

16.7 Summary of Infrastructure

16.7.1 Leisure Facilities The operation of the Council’s Leisure Facilities has been transferred to Lincs. Inspire Limited, a not for profit organisation. Lincs Inspire Ltd. manages six sporting facilities, four libraries, as well as an arts and sports development service and a public archive function. Dialogue with the Chief Executive of Lincs Inspire confirmed that it is not considered that there are gaps in new leisure facility provision across North East Lincolnshire. Significant investment by NELC in the borough’s leisure facilities infrastructure has taken place. Some ongoing refurbishment and maintenance work will continue however, there are no further planned new schemes at this time. Should the proposed level of development constitute an increased need for built leisure facilities due to an increase in demand, this would be considered a funding gap as there are no current funding streams allocated toward new provision.

16.7.2 Cemeteries & Crematoria North East Lincolnshire Council provides and manages two cemeteries and one crematorium. In recent years the number of cremations and burials has remained constant at around ratio around 80% cremations and 20 % burial per annum. Dialogue with North East Lincolnshire Council has confirmed that by a conservative estimate there are only 5-10 years of burial space at Cleethorpes cemetery remaining. Previous plans to expand the site into the former playing fields of the adjacent Lindsey Lower School have since been abandoned. Conversely Scartho Road has several years of provision left. North East Lincolnshire Council are currently working to advance a business case to create a new organisation to deliver affordable funeral services. This could potentially involve linking the Cemeteries and Crematorium service with an existing funeral company to create a combined offer, providing full funeral director and burial/cremation services. Proposals are at an early stage and no decisions have yet been made about funding, though it is likely that much will be derived from the existing budget and private sector partners. No decisions have yet been taken to determine how future capacity will be absorbed. There are a number of private cemeteries operating within the borough and the Council has arrangements with other providers which could accommodate some of the potential shortfall.

16.7.3 Libraries The current stock of statutory libraries is considered to represent a good geographical spread of libraries across the borough. Accordingly there are no plans by NELC to increase the number of physical statutory libraries across the borough.

The notable rise in the usage of virtual and electronic stock means that whilst demand will likely increase as a direct result of the growth pursued by NELC, it may not necessarily translate into an increase in footfall at the 4 statutory libraries. It is therefore unlikely that the proposed housing development would give rise to a need for new facilities.

Transport Issues This site is located to the west of Grimsby, with Great Coates to the and Requirements east and Laceby to the west and Healing to the north west The site is located between A1136 to the north and A46 to the south. A new access road is required to provide access to this site. The exact alignment of this road is currently being developed. There are currently a number of options for this road could be funded. This could involve the Local Enterprise Partnership Funding part of the road or some funding coming from both the strategic and plot developers. The link road would be located north to south between A1136 and A46. Improvements to the Great Coates Interchange may also be required to facilitate Grimsby West and Europarc IV. Initial modelling work undertaken by Highways England (‘HE’) suggests that this may be confined to junction signalisation. An earlier scheme considered the complete remodelling of the junction to a dumbbell arrangement, however HE modelling has shown that this may not deliver sufficient benefits on the strategic network to warrant HE funding. However once further information is known regarding the exact form and nature of the final Europarc and Grimsby West schemes this may need to be revisited. This site has PRoW crossing the site. The land owners has diverted some PRoW in the past, but there is still one which would need to be diverted. NELC are requesting that this is upgraded to a pedestrian / cycle route and tow ‘missing links’ are filled’. Utility Provision The projected maximum electricity demand at the Grimsby West site is 6.39MW. The closest NPG Substation to the Grimsby West Strategic Site is Yarborough Road. The primary substation has sufficient capacity to sustain the proposed growth at the site with a projected available capacity of 6.86 MVA in 2018/2019. It is also predicted that other developments within the area will also require capacity from this substation and therefore the capacity cannot be considered to be secured capacity until a formal request for it has been submitted to Northern Powergrid. There is therefore potentially a case that a new substation would be required in the area, however it is highly unlikely and uneconomical for a new substation to be installed unless the projected uptake will utilise the bulk of its capacity. Therefore cabling in from elsewhere would be preferred to supplement the development if required. A pre-application enquiry to Anglian Water has indicated that there are public water mains, public foul and surface water sewers within the boundary of your development site. It also noted that the foul drainage from this development is in the catchment of Pyewipe Sewage Treatment Works, which has capacity to treat the flows from your development site. Anglian Water have noted that they cannot reserve capacity at this sewage works and recommend the developer to formally apply for a connection at their earliest convenience. There are a number of watercourses available to utilise, the method of surface water disposal is not relevant to Anglian Water; we suggest that you contact the future SuDS Approving Body for the area, the Environment Agency, the Internal Drainage Board (see flood risk and drainage section). There are no capacity issues related to gas or water supply or treatment affecting this strategic site. Telecommunications Development is in between several exchanges. Scale of development and proximity to Grimsby calls for early engagement with Openreach

recommended to encourage roll out of FTTC/FTTP to development + Virgin Media. Flood Risk and This site falls in Flood Risk Zone 1, 2 and 3. The North East Drainage issues Lincolnshire Council Drainage Team are working closely with the developers promoting this site to agree an appropriate mitigation. There will be a requirement for the scheme to meet SuDs requirements, through provision of surface water storage. This would ultimately be discharged into the River Freshney, but would need to be restricted in line with National Flood Risk guidance. Open Space and The nearest Open Space (as defined by 2003 Local Plan policy LTC1) Sports requirements to the site is to the north of Gedney Close, and informal amenity space along the River Freshney. It is likely that North East Lincolnshire Council would seek on-site provision of open-space and would direct the developer to deliver a typology that contributes towards rectifying an identified deficiency. Education To meet demand for new primary school places the existing primary requirement schools/academies will be expanded in a timeline which runs at the side of the housing yield. In addition the developers of the site have been asked to provide a site for a new primary school and provide a new 500 place secondary school as the development progresses. All additional places will be funded through S106 / CIL contributions. Health provision The nearest GP Surgery currently accepting patients is the Dr. Suresh- Babu surgery, approximately 1km away from the site. Further afield, Field House Medical Group (Dr Hopper & Partners) is currently accepting patients at a distance of 1.6km from the proposed allocation. The nearest dental surgery currently accepting patients is Cromwell Dental Practice 1.6km from the site. Two pharmacies are located within close proximity to the site, one on St. Nicholas Drive and another on Wingate Parade.

18 Infrastructure Delivery Programme

18.1 Introduction This section takes the evidence and analysis from Sections 5 through to 17 and sets out how the level of current, planned and future infrastructure that will or could be delivered. This section:  Presents the indicative costs associated with delivering the planned and future infrastructure required to support the long term growth objectives in North East Lincolnshire;  Outlines how North East Lincolnshire Council could look to prioritise and facilitate the delivery of infrastructure; and  Summarises potential funding sources that North East Lincolnshire Council could explore to deliver on its infrastructure requirements. In simple terms, this part of the report takes the overall cost of each infrastructure type and sets that within the context of any existing funding, so as to determine any funding gaps. From here it will be possible to identify potential options for bridging the funding gaps and ensure how North East Lincolnshire can be proactive in looking to deliver its infrastructure requirements whilst recognising the difficult funding climate expected ahead. There are certain infrastructure types where funding gaps do exist. This relates to the infrastructure that will play an important role in delivering the future housing and economic growth across North East Lincolnshire. The contact details for all consulted stakeholders can be found in Appendix B.

18.2 North East Lincolnshire infrastructure Requirements and Investment

18.3 Overview Figure 18.1 sets out the Infrastructure Delivery Programme details, which shows all the required infrastructure provision in North East Lincolnshire, based on available information in compiled in July to September 2015 and final review in December 2015 / January 2016. The Infrastructure Delivery Programme details all the infrastructure requirements for North East Lincolnshire up to 2032, with funding costs provided where available. The schedule also details any committed funding sources and potential funding mechanisms, before confirming if there is a gap in infrastructure provision. The infrastructure requirements have been split into the following categories:  ‘Essential’ infrastructure is defined as infrastructure that is required to make development acceptable in planning terms.

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 139 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

 ‘Desirable’ infrastructure is described as infrastructure which would improve the capacity and deliver place making benefits. What is noticeable from an analysis of Table 18.1 is that a number of elements of infrastructure already have firm funding or funding allocations. This currently puts North East Lincolnshire in a relatively positive position in terms of funding infrastructure, subject to existing funding allocations becoming firm funding commitments. There are certain infrastructure types where funding gaps do exist. This relates to infrastructure which will play an important role in delivering the future housing and economic growth of North East Lincolnshire.

18.3.1 Essential Infrastructure The majority of infrastructure identified as essential has committed funding. Generally this is through the Highway England, Humber and Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership, Environment Agency Grant in Aid Funding, developer contributions and funding generated through the South Humber Industrial Investment Programme. The infrastructure where there is a shortfall in funding is set out below:  Great Coates Infrastructure Improvements (T6 in Table 18.1): It is acknowledged that signalisation improvements will need to be undertaken at Great Coates to support the delivery of both Europarc and Grimsby West. Highways England has advised that it is unlikely that there is a sufficient enough business case for the upgrade to be funded by HE, and should instead be funded by developers as part of a S.278 agreement related to both developments. The cost for this signalisation is currently unknown. It is worth noting however that the Study commissioned by the HE which recommends signalisation also suggests that the previous HE designed ‘dumbbell junction’ scheme may still be required if the TAs of either Grimsby West or Europarc extension supersede the Study’s findings. If this scheme is to be pursued, it is likely that upgrades of the junction to dumbbell specification will be in the region of £3.5 million. The funding for either the signalisation or dumbbell junction scheme are currently not committed, but identified sources are most likely to arise from developer contributions and NELC.  A1173 and Kiln Lane Junction Improvements (T8 in Table 18.1): Able UK have committed to providing £50,000 towards this scheme. The scheme is required to provide necessary capacity for proposed employment land allocations including Stallingbrough Interchange, as well as the consented Able UK scheme in North Lincolnshire. There is potentially a gap in funding as the required scheme is currently be investigated by the NELC highways team and further funding may be required. Further funding could come from the South Humber Industrial Investment Programme and developer contributions.  Rosper Road Dualling (T9 in Table 18.1) and Haven Road / Rosper Road Junction Improvements (T10 in Table 18.1): Both these schemes are

located in North Lincolnshire, but is needed to improve the HGV route to Immingham Ports. It was referenced in the Humber Transport Strategy. There is currently no committed funding for this scheme, but potential funding sources include developer contributions, North East Lincolnshire and LEP funding.  Upgrade to increase capacity at Laceby Water Recycling Centre (U4 in Table 18.1): There is a requirement to upgrade Laceby Water Recycling Centre to facilitate delivery of approximately 320 new homes as proposed through the Local Plan. The funding for this upgrade would could potentially be from the Anglian Water Asset Management Plan (AMP) 6 2015 – 2020 and developer contributions. There is identified as potential funding gap, as there is currently not an identified solution.  Lower Kingsway Sea Wall (F12 in Table 18.1): There is currently a gap in funding to deliver this scheme. It is required to protect 400 properties from coastal flooding by repairing the existing sea wall. There is currently no committed funding for this scheme, but EA Grant in Aid funding and LEP funding will be targeted.

18.4 Desirable Infrastructure The majority of infrastructure identified as desirable has potential funding sources, but these are generally not committed. The desirable infrastructure where there is a shortfall in funding are set out below:  Cleethorpes to Doncaster Electrification (T19 in Table 18.1): There is not committed funding for this scheme, however it not seen as essential to the delivery of Local Plan. NELC will continue to lobby central government for the route to be electrified to benefit from on-going electrification plans from Leeds to Manchester.  Delivery of Cycle Strategy (T22 in Table 18.1): There is an identified gap in funding for cycle schemes identified in the emerging Cycle Strategy. Developer contributions, LEP funding and grant based bid funding will be targeted.  Humber, Cleethorpe and Humberston Green Infrastructure Enhancements (F4 in Table 18.1): NELC are currently working with the Environment Agency on the planning stages for this scheme. This scheme is referenced in the Humber Landscape and Green Infrastructure Study. This includes proposals for Cleethorpes and the area around Humberston Fitties. There is currently no committed funding for this scheme, but EA Grant in Aid funding and LEP funding will be targeted.  Humbeston Fitties (F13 in Table 18.1): There is a gap in funding to protect 210 chalets at Humbeston Fitties. NELC are currently investigating options to improve the flood defences at Humberston Fitties, but there is no committed funding for any schemes - EA Grant in Aid funding and LEP funding will be targeted.  Measure to improve existing open spaces and Playing Pitch Strategy (G3 and P1 in Table 18.1): there is an identified funding gap relating to the cost | Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 141 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

of maintaining and improving existing open spaces in North East Lincolnshire. These facilities are likely to experienced increased usage through delivery of new homes in the Borough and funding is needed improve keep the facilities fit for purpose. The reduction in NELC capital and revenue funding has resulted in this gap and there is no committed funding for these improvements. NELC are seeking to target grant funding when available and seek developer contributions to improve existing open space.  Maintenance and service delivery to cemeteries and crematoria (C3 and C4 in Table 18.1): This was highlighted as an existing funding gap. It is related to an existing capacity issue and is not directly linked to housing growth, it has therefor been considered a desirable infrastructure requirement. The reduction in NELC capital and revenue funding has resulted in this gap and there is no committed funding for these improvements. NELC are seeking to target grant funding when available and consider available Council funding.  Potential investment in Leisure facilities (C5 in Table 18.1): There may be a requirement to invest in leisure facilities due to additional use by planned housing growth. There is currently no identified funding to deliver upgraded facilities. The reduction in NELC capital and revenue funding has resulted in this gap and there is no committed funding for these improvements. NELC are seeking to target grant funding when available and seek developer contributions to improve existing open space.

19 Funding Sources

19.1 Overview There are three categories of complementary infrastructure funding sources considered below:  Grants and subsidies.  Local revenue generation.  Equity and debt.  Grants and subsidies

19.2 South Humber Industrial Investment Programme

19.2.1 Aims and Objectives of Programme The South Humber Industrial Investment Programme (SHIIP) is a strategic investment programme which seeks to ensure that the opportunities for economic growth within North East Lincolnshire are capitalised over a 5-10 year period, overcoming current deficiencies in the provision of suitable sites and premises to secure business investment, job creation and a stronger economy. Over recent times, delivery of employment land and floorspace has been severely limited. The reduction in ongoing provision of new supply has restricted the supply of new stock, which coupled with qualitative and quantitative deficiencies in the existing stock, results in a significant shortfall in the supply of appropriate premises. The main industrial area within North East Lincolnshire lies between the Estuary and the A180, and extends east-west between the two Ports. However, its piecemeal development over time has led to significant infrastructure constraints, such as appropriate road infrastructure to support the development/expansion of the area. In addition the proximity of the industrial area to the internationally designations on the Humber Estuary (S.P.A, S.A.C., Ramsar, S.S.S.I) places significant restrictions on the development of land as a result of the need to comply with European Directives (Habitat Regulations). In order to realise the key opportunities arising, and particularly to ensure that the aspirations for economic growth are realised, it is necessary to ensure that the above constraints are overcome. The key objectives of the SHIIP programme are:  Provide c.120ha of Strategic Mitigation land in order to meet Habitat Regulation requirements for ecological protection of the Humber Estuary and enable development along the South Humber Bank.

 To improve 1km of existing road network and provide 0.5km of new road in order to enable improved access to development opportunities, and to improve efficiency in the local road network.  To provide 95ha of serviced “oven ready” land, including delivery of the Stallingborough Interchange, Brocklesby Estates and Europarc 3.  To facilitate the development of 222,000 sq. m. new floorspace, delivering up to 4,000 jobs.  Improve the local economy by £196m GVA.

19.2.2 Funding of Programme The total programme requirement for the delivery of the above amounts to £29.6m. The main sources of funding are secured through public sector resources, specifically funding from the Humber and Greater Lincolnshire LEP, and North East Lincolnshire. To date, £5.0m funding has been secured from the Greater Lincolnshire and Humber LEP’s, which will specifically allocate funding towards the delivery of Strategic Ecological Mitigation, access to the Stallingborough Interchange site, and the development of the port link road. The vast majority of this funding is scheduled for spend from the 2016-17 financial year. North East Lincolnshire Council has recently obtained Cabinet support to secure an additional £15.2m funding to utilise within the SHIIP programme. Prior to funding being released, however, further due diligence is required in relation to site specific requirements in order that a full understanding of requirements can be secured, and that the full funding requirement is addressed. It is anticipated that the due diligence process will be completed in late 2015. Funding has also been assumed to be provided in part from the private sector, specifically in relation to sites where investment is being made which supports private sector activity. Whilst this has yet to be confirmed in detail the principles of financial contributions has been confirmed by the developers involved. It is recognised that further funding opportunities may come forward through the LEP and other sources. Where appropriate, all opportunities to secure funds for the implementation of the above projects, including the potential to add further projects to the programme in due course.

19.2.3 Local Enterprise Funding The LEP programme aims to promote direct investment, principally within small- medium enterprises (SMEs), into sustainable business and as a result, increase private sector employment in the Humber and Lincolnshire. LEP funding comes from a number of grant sources. Some of these currently include:  Regional Growth Fund (no further rounds announced and LEPs were barred from the last two rounds).

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 156 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

 Growing Places Fund (no further rounds announced).  Single Local Growth Fund (LEPs eligible to apply to a pot of £10bn from 2015-16 covering housing and transport).  LEPs also have responsibility for delivering part of the EU Structural and Investment Funds for 2014-2020.

19.2.4 New Homes Bonus (NHB) The New Homes Bonus provides local authorities with a financial payment equal to the national average for the council tax band on each additional property and paid for the following six years as a un-ring-fenced grant. Local authorities can utilise the income generated by the New Homes Bonus to pay for infrastructure requirements. The delivery of new homes bonus is dependent on housing delivery and net housing growth performance, to which there is inevitably a fair degree of risk. However the future allocation of a portfolio of housing sites will increase the likelihood of securing funding through this source.

19.2.5 Government and European grants Capital grants represent project specific funding for capital projects from Government, the EU or the National Lottery. Such funds could be received from quasigovernment sources such as HCA, Central Government Departments or other organisations, particularly the Department for Transport, Department for Health and . The Train Operating Companies (TOCs) serving the borough also provide a means of funding. The current financial climate has led to a dramatic drop in grant funding available, however, there remain some sources of funding that can potentially be drawn into infrastructure schemes, such as the funding from the Heritage Lottery, Sports England and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and it is reasonable to assume that there will be a continuation in the availability of project specific grants in the future. With regard to the future of European Funding such as the ERDF, this will partly be determined by implications of the UK’s withdrawal from the EU. However, once Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union has been triggered, the UK will have two years to negotiate its withdrawal. It is therefore likely that the UK will be able to access ERDF funding until that point. Following withdrawal from the EU it is currently unclear whether the UK government will seek to create an alternative fund that would replicate ERDF’s aims and objectives.

19.3 Local Revenue generation opportunities

19.3.1 Community Infrastructure Levy The development of a Community Infrastructure Levy for North East Lincolnshire would allow developer contributions to be pooled and spent a large projects in the

| Issue | 12 September 2016 Page 157 \\GLOBAL\EUROPE\LEEDS\NON-JOBS\CONSULTING\WOW LEADS\2016\B0153 CRM 812228 NELC IDP UPDATE AUG 2016\ISSUED REPORT\V2\2016.09.12 NELC IDP UPDATE V2_FINAL.DOCX

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

borough. North East Lincolnshire are considering a Community Infrastructure Levy alongside their emerging Local Plan. This would be supplemented with S106 agreements for delivery of on-site infrastructure and affordable housing.

19.3.2 Section 106 Planning obligations under Section 106 (S106) are a mechanism which make a development proposal (that would not be acceptable otherwise) acceptable in planning terms. S106 are legal contracts linked to a planning application decision, relating to the land rather than the person or organisation developing the land. Planning obligations are used in order to:  Prescribe the nature of development to comply with policy.  Compensate for loss or damage (such as loss of open space) created by a development.  Mitigate impact from a development. It should be noted that if NELC progress and adopt a CIL charge this would replace S106 (except for Affordable Housing and any on site infrastructure).

19.3.3 Business rate retention The wider Lincolnshire LEP area have progressed a number of business rate retention schemes including in Boston. This approach could be considered by North East Lincolnshire Council to create a fund for future investment in a town centre location or business parks.

19.3.4 Council tax precept An addition to council tax which could be levied for either a specific project or an infrastructure investment programme as a whole, e.g. the GLA Olympic Games precept levied on residential properties equivalent to £20 p.a. for a ‘Band D’ property.

19.3.5 Proceeds from the disposal of assets Proceeds from the disposal of surplus Council and other public sector owned assets form a further source of funding that can potentially be used to pay for some infrastructure works. This is often utilised on a like-for-like infrastructure provision basis, for example where the sale of a school site might fund the re- provision of a school in another part of the borough. North East Lincolnshire Council owns a significant amount of land, some of which it is anticipated will be available for release for development over the period of the development plan. However, it should be recognised that the utilisation of capital receipts for infrastructure investment purposes will be subject to internal assessment in the same way as any other investment proposal and that there will need to be strong business case in respect of contributing to the Council’s corporate objectives and priorities.

North East Lincolnshire are already seeking to transfer community centres and libraries to the management community groups to reduce Council costs. This is a disposal of sorts as it reduces future costs to the Council.

19.4 Equity and debt

19.4.1 Joint ventures The use of a partnership approach to develop a pipeline of sites across an area is a popular potential route that is being pursued by a number of local authorities at present. Such partnerships can include the public sector vesting land and/or equity alongside an equivalent commitment by a commercial partner to deliver a development or regeneration scheme. The development of an infrastructure based JV has potential where the public sector owns development land and is able to use that land to attract private sector investment to deliver infrastructure. In this case, the private sector would put equity into the JV to pay for infrastructure works, then development takes place on the Council’s land, the receipts from which are shared between the parties. The potential for such mechanisms to be applied on an ad hoc or area wide strategic basis should be explored alongside the audit of assets recommended above.

19.4.2 Shadow toll The Shadow Toll mechanism is one that has been used extensively across Europe and has been the subject of recent debate in connection with the proposals for increasing institutional funding in infrastructure. Historically this has been delivered through a PFI type structure where the system of shadow tolling provides the revenue for privately-funded road schemes for a Design, Build, Finance and Operate (DBFO) contract. The mechanism allows the Government to spread payments for infrastructure over a longer period of use rather than up front for development, with much of the development risk being taken by a private sector partner. The advantages of this scheme are that it enables the private sector to meet the upfront capital funding requirements and share the risks. It may therefore offer an opportunity for funding waste schemes in North East Lincolnshire with partnership with neighbouring local authorities.

19.4.3 User Fee/ Toll Collection Revenue could be raised by charging users of a facility, e.g. road/ bridge/ tunnel tolls or congestion charging, tram fares, etc. Could also include rentals under Local Authority owned housing stock. Many tunnels and bridges across the UK are tolled, e.g. the Mersey Tunnels and the currently under construction Mersey Gateway Bridge. In the USA, toll income is often used in the funding package to construct new assets, e.g. Transbay Transit Centre in San Francisco.

20 Conclusion and Recommendations

20.1 Overall Conclusion The conclusion from this study is that there is broadly sufficient infrastructure, either current or planned, to support the housing and economic growth aspirations for the North East Lincolnshire borough up to 2032. As such, the current evidence shows that the strategy set out in the emerging Local Plan is broadly deliverable. However, there are uncertainties associated with the planning and delivery of some infrastructure. There are also some gaps in the ability for committed or allocated funding to deliver the necessary level of infrastructure. This is broadly typical of many local planning authorities. The following areas for further work have been identified to tackle specific infrastructure risks:  Further transport modelling work to understand the exact junction improvement schemes required to provide the necessary capacity to deliver the growth set out in the Local Plan.  Continued close working with the Environment Agency to prioritise funding for flood alleviation schemes across the borough.  Detailed analysis on open space standards and playing pitch provision to support an Open Space Supplementary Planning Doucment (SPD) to understand the where there are existing deficits that can be overcome by on- site provision or the use of CIL.  Engagement with Northern Powergrid to understand the impact of phasing and delivery in the South Humber Bank and implication for sub station capacity.  Continued close working with Highways England and neighbouring authorities to deliver strategic highway schemes and fund future schemes (e.g. Great Coates Interchange Improvements).  Engagement with Anglian Water to deliver required water treatment upgrades, particularly at Laceby Water Recycling Centre. Across these areas of risk, decisions will need to be made on priorities for infrastructure delivery. These decisions must factor in the timing and phasing of housing and economic development and also infrastructure investment cycles. Across certain infrastructure types, North East Lincolnshire Council will also need to consider a range of potential options and solutions to reflect uncertainties in delivery funding and investment.

20.2 Infrastructure-Specific Conclusions The following section details the specific conclusions in relation to each infrastructure type: Transport: There will be a requirement for additional funding to deliver a transport system that with the capacity to deliver the planned level of growth. This

includes continued improvements to highways, rail, bus, cycling and walking facilities to facilitate growth. The NELC transport team are carrying out detailed analysis on exactly what schemes will be required. NELC will then consider funding options, which are likely to include developer contributions, the use of South Humber Industrial Investment Programme The necessary improvements to rail infrastructure are generally funded, but NELC officers are continuing to work with stakeholders to improve services. The required transport schemes are set out in Table 18.1. Utilities: There is broadly adequate electricity, gas and water supply / treatment capacity to serve the proposed growth levels. If all the proposed employment allocations come forward in the South Humber Bank then a new substation will be required, as detailed in Table 18.1. Developers will be required to pay for local connections as per normal associated development costs. There may be a need in certain parts of the borough for Local upgrades to utilities infrastructure, for example such as where new development is constructed adjacent primary substations with insufficient capacity. For Gas there is good network coverage throughout the region and the demands generated by new development can be served by the existing infrastructure with only local reinforcement being likely. For water treatment upgrades are likely to be required in the plan period, and are definitely required to Laceby Water Recycling Centre in the short term to allow the growth in the Local Plan to be delivered. There is also a requirement for NELC to work closely with utility providers to understand phasing and capacity requirements. Telecoms: Broadband services are generally good in most areas, though Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) services are only beginning their deployment. Mobile services are generally good in most areas, however attention should be focussed on encouraging the operators in deploying 4G services more uniformly especially the Western and Southern arcs and the Rural areas, along with more resilient 2G and 3G services. All areas are BT Openreach enabled, with sparse Virgin Media presence. Flood Risk and Drainage: The current protection is currently adequate to meet current needs. There will be a requirement to improve flood defences up to 2032. The Humber Flood Risk Management Strategy is currently being updated. This update includes a survey of the existing flood defences and their adequacy to meet current needs. This strategy will set out schemes needed going forward and will be updated as required by the Environment Agency. North East Lincolnshire Council will work closely with developers to agree appropriate flood management approached through the delivery of site Flood Risk Assessments. This will include agreeing mechanisms to slow the flow of surface water from sites, particularly around Laceby and Waltham, where the available discharge points are already subject to flooding issues. The sequential and exceptions tests will be completed through the Strategic Flood Risk Assessment, which is being prepared to support eh emerging Local Plan. Waste Management: Based on the current levels of planned growth, current collection methods and increasing levels of recycling, there is likely to be ‘ample

capacity’ within existing facilities and no need for additional treatment capacity in the short to medium term (to 2020). This surplus in provision is only likely to change if NELC were to move from source-segregated collection towards comingling of recyclable materials or if recycling levels did not increase, which may result in a smaller deficit in capacity towards the latter end of the Plan Period or the need for an additional Material Handling Facility. Open Space and Green Infrastructure: Broadly speaking the provision of open space varies considerably across the borough. There are some areas that score poorly against provision and quality criteria which constitute gaps in provision. The emerging Local Plan contains a set of suggested provision standards for Green Infrastructure and Open Space across the borough. Whilst these standards can be applied to new development schemes to understand the appropriate on-site provision of open space for new developments, it is not yet possible to understand how the borough is currently performing against the standards, and therefore whether or not a deficit exists. Additionally the emerging Local Plan commits NELC to producing an Open Space Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) to set formal and robust standards for open space provision across the borough. This will be an essential requirement for GI and Open Space infrastructure going forward. Sports, Leisure and Recreation: With the exception of the Rural Areas analysis area, all parts of the borough are considered to deficient in terms of playing pitch provision. In general the borough experiences a shortage of provision in terms of quantity, with several facilities suffering from overplaying. This could be rectified through the delivery of new facilities or in part through a different approach to management on a site by site basis. It is likely that the quantum of growth proposed through the Local Plan will further exacerbate existing deficiencies in provision and NELC may wish to explore a combination of developer contributions and on-site provision at strategic sites to rectify this situation. The emerging Local Plan commits the Council to reviewing open space standards through the production of an SPD following Local Plan adoption. This will be essential in order to accurately understand deficiencies in playing pitch provision. Primary and Secondary Healthcare: Health services in North East Lincolnshire are delivered by the North East Lincolnshire Commissioning Group (CCG). Through discussion with the CCG and NHS England it has been confirmed that generally the provision of GP surgeries is good across the borough. Whilst the proposed quantum of growth in the Local Plan may give rise to a need for additional capacity, it is unlikely that this will translate into a need for new surgeries altogether, with expansion focussing instead upon the recruitment of further GPs. The funding for GP provision is based on the number of patients registered at the practice, called capitation funding. This is weighted with more funding based on levels of deprivation and aging population. Therefore additional patients mean additional funding that can be used to provide additional GP provision

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

In terms of hospital provision the focus is more upon qualitative improvements and new ways of working more efficiently rather than increasing capacity. There may be a need to increase the number of dentists across the borough to cope with increasing demand, however the full extent of this requirement is currently unknown. Pharmacy provision is commercially led and so it is envisaged that an increase in the level of pharmacies across the borough will occur as additional housing development comes on line, meaning that there will unlikely need to be an intervention from the NHS to boost provision. Emergency Services: All three emergency service operators are investigating models of working to allow them to deliver services more efficiently. Humberside Police has already implemented a new model of service delivery, and Humberside Fire and Rescue is in the process of implementing its new service delivery pattern. The use of emergency service provision will be monitored by the fire, police and ambulance services based on their quality indicators (e.g. response times). If response times are not being met then the operators will seek to move resources to allow targets to be met. There is therefore no gap in funding for emergency service provision. Education: The number of pupil places required as a result of the NELC Local Plan can be accommodated across the existing education sites. A combination of expansion of certain sites and in some cases new provision altogether will accommodate the increased need. In terms of funding the overwhelming majority of alterations to existing facilities will be funded through Section 106 agreements or CIL. However there are certain instances where the LA will be required to utilise a combination of Basic Need Allocations and their own funding streams in order to make the necessary alterations to accommodate new pupil provision. In these instances NELC has a strategy in place and has identified funding streams. Therefore these schemes do not constitute a funding gap. In the instance of Grimsby West it is anticipated that the developer will be required to deliver a new secondary school and provide land for a new primary school as part of the overall strategic allocation. It is envisaged that this will be fully funded by the developer and as such this does not constitute a funding gap. Community and Cultural: The Council’s Leisure Facilities have been transferred across to Lincs Inspire, a community interest company. Lincs Inspire Ltd. manages six sporting facilities, four libraries, as well as an arts and sports development service and a public archive function. It has been confirmed that it is not considered that there are gaps in leisure facility provision across North East Lincolnshire. North East Lincolnshire Council provides and manages two cemeteries and one crematorium. In recent years the number of cremations and burials has remained constant at around ratio around 80% cremations and 20 % burial per annum. Dialogue with North East Lincolnshire Council has confirmed that by a

North East Lincolnshire Council North East Lincolnshire Local Plan Infrastructure Delivery Plan Update

conservative estimate there are only 5-10 years of burial space at Cleethorpes cemetery remaining. The current stock of libraries is considered to represent a good geographical spread of libraries across the borough. Accordingly there are no plans by Lincs Inspire or NELC to increase the number of physical libraries across the borough, however both organisations would be supportive of community interest groups establishing further provision. The notable rise in the usage of virtual and electronic stock means that whilst demand will likely increase as a direct result of the growth pursued by NELC, it may not necessarily translate into an increase in footfall at the 4 libraries. It is therefore unlikely that the proposed housing development would give rise to a need for new facilities.
