INTRODUCTION Introduction 1.1 TPS Transport Consultants Ltd (TPS) has been commissioned by Kier Living to prepare a Travel Plan in relation to a proposed residential development of 256 dwellings on land at Preston Road, Longridge. The location of the development is shown in Figure 1. Appendix A includes a layout plan for the proposals, which have the benefit of planning consent. Figure 1 - Site Location Development Location 1.2 The Travel Plan is a requirement of the planning approval; attached to the consent was a series of planning conditions, including the requirement for a Framework and, subsequent, Full Travel Plan. The wording of the Condition is as follows: No development shall commence until a Framework Travel Plan has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority in consultation with the Highway TPS Project Number: P1112 Project Name: Preston Road, Longridge Date: April 2018 Authority. The provisions of the Framework Travel Plan shall be implemented and operated in strict accordance with the timetable contained therein unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority: For the avoidance of doubt the Framework Travel Plan must include a schedule for the submission of a Full Travel Plan within a suitable timeframe of first occupation, the development being first brought into use or other identifiable stage of development. Where the Local Planning Authority agrees a timetable for implementation of a Framework or Full Travel Plan, the elements are to be implemented in strict accordance with the approved timetable unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority. All elements shall continue to be implemented at all times thereafter for as long as any part of the development is occupied or used/for a minimum of at least 5 years after site completion. 1.3 The Travel Plan strategy set out within this report details the specific measures that Kier Living intends to implement at the site, and timescales for doing so. It also details the process by which the impact of those measures will be monitored. Given that the developer is known, it is considered that there is no requirement for a Framework Travel Plan ahead of a Full Travel Plan; rather this document constitutes a Full Travel Plan, that Kier Living is fully committed to delivering throughout the development build out. 1.4 TPS is a specialist Travel Plan consultancy with extensive experience of developing and implementing residential Travel Plans for house builders throughout the UK. The content of the Travel Plan and the specific measures proposed, therefore, pays due regard to national and local travel planning guidance (Section 2), and the experiences of TPS in delivering Travel Plans at other similar residential developments, including for Kier Living in other regions. Development Proposals 1.5 The proposed development consists of 256 residential dwellings, on land accessed off Preston Road, Longridge. The site is bounded by the B6243 (Preston Road) to the east, existing residential dwellings to the north and open farmland to the south and west. 1.6 The vehicular access will be taken at two locations from Preston Road, via new priority junctions to the east of the site, with a pedestrian and cycle link through to the Miller Homes development to the north. An additional cycle and pedestrian access will also be provided from Water Meadows to the south east of the site. Along the eastern boundary of the site, to the west of Preston Road, there is a continuous street lit footway, which facilitates TPS Project Number: P1112 Project Name: Preston Road, Longridge Date: April 2018 pedestrian movement from the site to the centres of Longridge and Grimsargh, as well as to the surrounding residential areas. Developer’s Commitment to Travel Planning 1.7 Kier Living recognises that by submitting and implementing a Travel Plan, sustainable travel patterns can be both established from the outset and maintained over time, minimising the impact that the development has upon local infrastructure and the environment and ensuring that, where possible, all residents make informed journey choices. 1.8 Travel Plans can deliver a wide range of benefits to housing developers themselves, as well as to residents and the wider community. At the sales and marketing stage, a proactive Travel Plan can assist a residential developer in promoting a site as an accessible and sustainable location to live, with a range of travel options available to prospective residents. This process enables residents to make a fully informed decision when choosing to move to the site, taking into account the site's location relative to sustainable travel options, and the knock on effect this may have upon reducing the need to own or use a car. 1.9 The promotion of sustainable travel options from an early stage provides a cost-effective mechanism by which developers can minimise the level of car based trips generated by a site, which in turn reduces the impact that a development has on local traffic levels, noise, air quality and road safety. 1.10 The individual benefits to be derived through the use of sustainable travel options include financial, health, fitness and avoidance of congestion delays (through greater use of active modes of travel). 1.11 Recognising these benefits, Kier Living is fully committed to the process of delivering this Travel Plan in taking the development forward. Furthermore, they are committed to providing the appropriate level of resource to ensure the
