1. Background

1.1 Across Coventry, Warwickshire and Hinckley and Bosworth there is a requirement to deliver approximately 85,000 new homes along with extensive new employment opportunities by 2031. The preferred distribution of the housing and employment will be identified within the individual Local Plans produced by the Local Planning Authorities. The process for producing the Local Plans is complex, requiring significant levels of consultation and a requirement to show cooperation with neighbouring Authorities. Draft plans are then subject to examination and only once they have the approval of the Planning Inspector can the plan then be formally adopted by the appropriate Council. At the time of writing, Hinckley and Bosworth, Rugby and North Warwickshire Borough Councils have adopted their Local Plans. Coventry City Council, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council and Stratford and Warwick District Councils are in the process of preparation, consultation or examination.

1.2 The Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership (CWLEP) submitted its Strategic Economic Plan (SEP) in March 2014. The plan sets out the CWLEP ambitions for economic growth; proposals for realising these ambitions; the “offers and asks” of the Growth Deal with Government; and the initial calculation of Local Growth Fund investment required through to 2020/21. The CWLEP is now looking at a refresh of the SEP and officers from across Coventry, Warwickshire and Hinckley and Bosworth are actively engaged in this process. The refresh is expected to be completed later in 2015 with calls for projects as soon as July 2015.

1.3 The Duty to Cooperate Policy group for the CWLEP area is committed to a timetable for the development of a joint spatial strategy. This work is to be aligned with a full objective assessment of housing and employment need. The findings will help inform infrastructure needs and requirements for the area. This work will inform a further refresh to this joint Infrastructure Development Plan.

2. Document Purpose and Status

2.1 This document has been produced to support a strategically led approach to the future development of infrastructure in support of sustainable and connected communities and economic growth.

2.2 It will provide an overview of the developments identified within the Local Plans of the five District and Borough Councils in Warwickshire, Coventry City Council and Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council, as well as the priorities and schemes within the Coventry and Warwickshire Strategic Economic Plan (CWSEP).

2.3 The aim is to identify major schemes, including those that have an impact across local authority boundaries to support the efficient use of available funding and enable innovative and joined up solutions.

2.4 The plan is a clear demonstration of effective joined up working across the area in support of a strategically led approach to the future development of infrastructure in support of sustainable and connected communities and economic growth.

2.5 Infrastructure projects/schemes as well as the designation of potential sites for development identified in this document are at various stages of agreement/ development and are a statement of identified need based on the planned development. As such, this document should be treated with the caveat that future infrastructure delivery is likely to be subject to variation from these plans in terms of scale and location. Potential delivery bodies, sources of This Document is a working draft and all data is subject to change in consultation with individual local authorities

funding and costs are for indicative purposes only and should not be viewed as commitments to fund.

3. Single Spatial Plan

The IDP and the local plans for Warwickshire, Coventry and Hinckley and Bosworth provide the detailed information relating to housing and employment growth and the infrastructure that will be required to support these sites coming forward. The Single Spatial Plan will present a visual map of the area showing:

i. Key development sites (housing and employment), planned and underway. ii. Key growth corridors with associated infrastructure and transport schemes. iii. Other key strategic sites both planned and underway. iv. Key developments on the borders of the CWLEP area.

Due to the geographical size of the area the Single Spatial Plan will be developed by way of a suite of intelligent maps along key growth corridors and town centres which collectively will form the Single Spatial Plan.

4. Governance

4.1 This IDP has been produced at the request of the Shadow Economic Prosperity Board by The Infrastructure Delivery Team at Warwickshire County Council (WCC). It is a shared resource, with the majority of the information within it derived from the Local Planning Authorities (LPAs) and their respective Local Plans. Information will be reviewed regularly with potential schemes and their priority within the overall plan being amended as appropriate.

4.2 The individual LPAs will maintain their own Infrastructure Delivery Plans and these will be available from each organisation. Appropriate contact information is detailed later in this document. Hyperlinks are provided within this document to the individual IDP’s associated with each of the draft or adopted Local Plans

4.3 Work will continue to ensure an effective system for monitoring the document to ensure it remains up to date. The Coventry, Warwickshire and Solihull Planning Officer group (CSWAPO) have agreed to monitor the IDP as plans change and develop. Steps will be put in place to ensure that the content relating to Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council also remains up to date.

5. Critical Infrastructure and Funding Requirements

5.1 Infrastructure in this context covers a wide breadth of public sector and local government service areas. A strategic approach to infrastructure helps to ensure that fundamental facilities and systems are available to enable an area and its economy to function effectively in the long term. The responsibility for the delivery of infrastructure will be spread across a number of different public and private sector bodies and this document brings all of this together to give a holistic view of infrastructure requirements to enable strategic planning and discussion.

5.2 At Appendix A is a table identifying access, road and transport improvements/enhancements identified within the adopted and emerging Local Plans. This list will be subject to on-going review in conjunction with the Local Planning Authorities. Where schemes appear in the This Document is a working draft and all data is subject to change in consultation with individual local authorities

Infrastructure Development Plans of more than one Local Planning Authority this will be shown to ensure that we do not double count funding allocations and/or requirements.

5.3 This document will help the respective LPA’s coordinate their infrastructure planning, whilst highlighting strategic issues and proposals as well as funding and delivery opportunities. This will support the LPA’s in meeting their responsibilities under Duty to Cooperate in terms of infrastructure planning.

6. Funding Opportunities / Growth Bids

6.1 A planning obligation may:

• be unconditional or subject to conditions; • impose any restriction or requirement for an indefinite or specified period; • provide for payments of money to be made, either of a specific amount or by reference to a formula, and require periodical payments to be paid indefinitely or for a specified period.

6.2 Funding of works on the strategic road network is made under section 278 of the Highways Act 1980, as amended by section 23 of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991. These agreements provide a financial mechanism for ensuring delivery of mitigation works identified and determined as necessary for planning permission to be granted. The cost of changes to the road network within the county will therefore receive funding through both S106 and S278 agreements.

6.3 The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is a levy which local planning authorities (LPAs) in England and Wales can choose to charge on new development in their area.

6.4 Planning obligations can only be sought if they are;

• necessary to make the proposed development acceptable in planning terms; • directly related to the proposed development; • fairly and reasonably related in scale and kind to the proposed development.

6.5 The government has set 1st April 2015 as the date by which CIL ought to be introduced. After this date, regardless of whether or not a CIL is introduced locally, the use of s106 planning obligations will be restricted in use to 5 obligations for any individual project. A CIL can only be introduced if there is an appropriate adopted plan in place.

6.6 We must also recognise strategic infrastructure investment from other sources such as Highways England and Network Rail as well as the major utility providers serving the region. The impact of HS2 must not be under-estimated and links with HS2 Ltd will continue.

6.7 Local Growth Deal – investment requested

a) The Coventry and Warwickshire Growth Deal was agreed with government in late 2014. The Growth Deal secured £74.1m from the Government’s Local Growth Fund to support economic growth in the area – with £13.6m of new funding confirmed for 2015/16 and £20.5mfor 2016/17 to 2021. This includes: as part of the Government’s ongoing commitment to the Coventry and Warwickshire LEP a provisional award of a further £24.7 m of funding for projects starting in 2016 and beyond; and £15.3 m of funding which the Government has previously committed as part of Local Growth Deal funding to the area.

This Document is a working draft and all data is subject to change in consultation with individual local authorities

b) The investment will bring forward at least £30m of additional investment from local partners and the private sector. Together this will create a total new investment package of £104.1m for the Coventry and Warwickshire LE area.

c) The 2015-16 investments agreed as part of the Growth Deal are summarised in the tables below. Further funding has been earmarked from projects beyond 2016 and future Growth Deal iterations are likely based on refreshes of the SEP.

PART 2

Organisational summaries

This Document is a working draft and all data is subject to change in consultation with individual local authorities

1. The Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership

1.1 The Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership (CWLEP) submitted its Strategic Economic Plan (SEP) at the end of March 2014. This was produced after Government’s call for all Local Enterprise Partnerships to develop strategic economic plans to deliver growth. The SEP is to undergo a refresh after the 2015 General Election.

1.2 The SEP reinforces the commitment of all local authorities to the CWLEP led City Deal, “Re- engineering Engineering: Raising our Game” by improving skills, innovation, productivity and creating jobs, initially in advanced manufacturing and engineering (AME). The document also details how the various partners and stakeholders in the local area will work together and align their existing resources to support growth.

1.3 The CWSEP outlines the following key priorities:

• To develop 50,099 new employment opportunities with the top 5 priority employment sites being: o Coventry and Warwickshire Gateway (as the primary employment site for the sub- region) o Friargate o Lyons Park o Whitley Business Park and o Bermuda Park

• To build c.80,000 houses across Coventry and Warwickshire by 2031 (based on the conclusions of the Coventry and Warwickshire Joint Strategic Housing Market Availability Assessment – November 2013)

• To facilitate investment in transport infrastructure, specifically the strategic road network (particularly A46/A444/Toll Bar improvements), north-south rail links and the redevelopment/expansion of Coventry Station.

• To capitalise on cross-LEP opportunities in transport, research and development and supply chain development through the Clearing House / Growth Hub activities.

• To develop a “National Reshoring Centre" led by an integrated public and private sector partnership.

• To create a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) Centre between two Further Education Colleges to support the delivery of apprenticeships and high quality traineeships

• To increase business start-up and sustainability rates through: o Funding for a University Enterprise Zone; o Provision of grow-on space at Ansty Park and Coventry University Technology Park; o Development of a 'growth lounge' in Coventry; o Refurbishment of an existing council building in Stratford upon Avon to support new business start-ups (Progress House)

• To prioritise the following portfolio of employment sites to attract new investors, retain local businesses and restore manufacturing companies: o Coventry and Warwickshire Gateway o Ansty Park This Document is a working draft and all data is subject to change in consultation with individual local authorities

o Bermuda Park, o Friargate o Fen End o Lyons Park o Prologis Park (Ryton) o Stoneleigh Park o Thickthorn o Whitley Business Park o Tournament Fields

2. Warwickshire County Council

2.1 Warwickshire County Council (WCC) has responsibility for many services across the County, including: highways and transportation; education provision; public health; waste disposal; community safety; fire and rescue, libraries, support for elderly and vulnerable people; children’s safeguarding and many others.

2.2 In addition to the above the County Council is a principal partner of the Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership and has a statutory duty to cooperate on county council matters in working with all partners in the Sub-Region.

2.3 As a key infrastructure provider, the Council has engaged with all District and Borough Councils in Warwickshire during Local Plan and IDP preparation. This engagement will continue and will help ensure the continued validity of the Joint Infrastructure Delivery Plan. Examples of infrastructure relating to County Council service areas include:

• Transport o Strategic and Local Road Network o Public Transport Network (Rail and Bus) o Cycling and Walking

• Education o Planning for Pre-School provision. o Planning for school places o Provision for Special Educational Needs (SEN) o Provision of skill training post 16

• Community o Provision of new/extended surgeries o Parks, Open Spaces and Play Areas in line with Public Health Polices o Community Facilities/Services o Libraries o Emergency fire Services o Waste Disposal o Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems o Broadband o Flood Defences

Infrastructure ‘asks’ from WCC in support of planned development can be found within the appendices covering the 5 local planning authority areas for Warwickshire and the SEP.

3. Coventry City Council

3.1 Coventry City Council (CCC) consulted on the ‘Delivering Sustainable Growth’ document in September 2014. This is the first consultation on the New Coventry Local Plan since the Council withdrew its previous Core Strategy from Examination in March 2013. The document is an ‘Issues and Options’ type document and includes locational strategy options for development in, or in proximity, to Coventry.

3.2 The Council intends to publish its final version of the plan for consultation in October 2015 prior to submitting it to the Secretary of State for independent examination by the end of the year.

3.3 Coventry’s minimum level of Objectively Assessed Housing Need is 36,220 homes between 2011 and 2031 (1,811 a year).Evidence shows that between 2011 and 2031 approximately 16,500 new homes can be accommodated within the existing urban area, which will help to support the city’s on-going urban regeneration programme. A further 7,000 homes (approximately) could then be delivered on existing Green Belt land within the city’s administrative boundaries. These opportunities could include notable urban extensions to Coventry for the first time in 40 years. This growth reflects the city’s growing population and economic base. The exact number of homes to be delivered however remains dependent upon the findings of the sub-regional Green Belt review and other supporting evidence. If all of the city’s ‘need’ cannot be met within its own boundaries, remaining provision would be accommodated on land in Warwickshire (the wider housing market area), subject to the Duty to Co-operate process, robust evidence and acceptance by neighbouring authorities.

3.4 The Local Plan indicates support for economic growth through focusing on the following sites: • Friargate – Office led regeneration of the Coventry train station and surrounding area • Coventry and Warwickshire Gateway (including Whitley Business Park) – Significant investment in advanced manufacturing, logistics, and hi-tech research and development opportunities to the south and south east sides of the city • The University of Warwick, Coventry University and Coventry and Warwick University Hospital– continued expansion • Ansty Park– full occupation and potential expansion • ProLogis Logistics Park – final completion • Browns Lane – continued regeneration; • enhanced employment land opportunities within the urban area e.g. Parkside, Whitmore Park and Paragon Park.

3.5 The Local Plan also envisages Coventry City Centre regeneration and job creation through the City Centre South Project, Bishopgate proposals, the Coventry University master plan and the Friargate development.

3.6 The CWSEP identifies the following as priority employment sites: • Coventry and Warwickshire Gateway • Friargate • Lyons Park • Whitley Business Park

3.7 This document identifies key highways, transport and access infrastructure requirements. A summary of all key infrastructure requirements within the City and identified by the City Council will be available from August 2015.
