  • HS2 E Update June 2021
    HS2 E Update June 2021 What is Buckinghamshire Council doing on behalf of residents? Councillor Peter Martin has been appointed as Deputy Cabinet Member for Transport with responsibility for HS2 and EWR. Since his appointment, Councillor Martin has been undertaking site visits, attending meetings and meeting affected communities. In the last month or so Buckinghamshire Council issued a number of press releases on the design of the Amersham Vent Shaft headhouse, the A413 road closure detailed below, our concerns around tunnelling on the aquifer and Wendover Dean Viaduct. With regards to our recent approval of the Schedule 17 application for Wendover Dean Viaduct, we commissioned external advice regarding noise issues raised by local communities, as it was important that we ensured we had sufficient information to take the decision. HS2 Ltd/Align needed to close the A413 for weekend working to carry out utility works. Buckinghamshire Council initially refused permission for 2 weekend closures and continued to discuss plans for these proposed works to cause the least disruption possible. We have worked with HS2 Ltd/Align to reduce the impacts by limiting the works to a single weekend and providing mitigation. The closure took place from 9pm on 18 June until 5am on 21 June and no major disruption was reported and works were completed to schedule. Buckinghamshire Council has written to HS2 Ltd with a long list of questions regarding the potential impact of tunnelling and other structures on the Chilterns aquifer and chalk streams. HS2 Ltd has until now played down any risks to the aquifer but a recent article takes a more cautious approach and admits they face ‘significant challenges’ to stop cement leaking into the water system.

The Plan had been prepared in accordance with the decisions of Cabinet on 14 August 2012 which covered the accelerated production of the Strategy Document, as well as the level of jobs and homes growth and the apportionment of that growth across the District to be used as the basis of VAP work. In preparing the Plan, account had to be taken of relevant international, national, regional, and local policies. A list of all the plans and policies that had been considered during the preparation of VAP were included in the Sustainability Appraisal.
