The Scoping Report accompanies a request for an EIA Scoping Opinion from Wirral Borough Council (WBC) in accordance with Regulation 15 of the Town and Country Planning (EIA) Regulations 2017 (as amended), (the “EIA Regulations”). 1.8 The development proposed by WGC in Birkenhead falls within Category 10(b) of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2017 (as amended) (urban development projects) as the Development exceeds the 5ha area of development and the 150 dwelling thresholds. It is considered that the Development could lead to significant effects on the environment and an Environmental Statement (ES), informed through the EIA Scoping process should be prepared in support of the planning application. 1.9 In light of the above, a Scoping Report was prepared using desk-based research, site visits, professional judgement and other information available for the site to identify the likely significant effects on the environment that may arise from the demolition and construction and operational phases of the development. It was also informed by competent experts as required under the EIA Regulations. 1.10 The EIA Scoping Report was submitted to WBC on 10th of April 2020 and an official response was issued by the Council within the statutory time period to influence the content of the ES. The ES has subsequently been prepared in accordance with the Scoping Opinion received and it has been submitted in support of this planning application. This planning application, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the submitted ES and it covers the following topics: 29343/A5/JC/NR 3 August 2020 Introduction • Alternative Design Evolution • Construction Methodology and Phasing • Population and Human Health • Townscape and Visual • Cultural Heritage • Transport and Access • Noise • Air Quality • Climate Change Planning Statement Structure 1.11 The following sections of the Planning Statement are structured as follows: • Section 2 provides the development context by introducing WGC and their vision for Birkenhead town centre. This section includes an overview of the consultation programme which has aided the progression of the indicative masterplan for Birkenhead; • Section 3 provides a description of the site and the surrounding area; • Section 4 outlines the relevant planning history for the site; • Section 5 describes the proposed development and the phases of delivery; • Section 6 sets out the development plan in which the application should be determined; • Section 7 outlines any other material considerations that are relevant to the determination of this application; • Section 8 contains the planning assessment and sets out the case for development and how the proposed development accords with planning policy; • Section 9 assesses technical considerations including and developer contributions; • Section 10 provides a summary of the benefits provided by the development; and • Section 11 sets out the concluding remarks and weighs the application in the planning balance. 29343/A5/JC/NR 4 August 2020 Development Context 2.0 DEVELOPMENT CONTEXT Wirral Growth Company 2.1 WGC is a 50:50 joint venture partnership between Wirral Metropolitan Borough Council WBC and national urban regeneration specialists, Muse Developments (Muse).

  • East Wirral(Mersey Estuary)
    River Mersey near to Eastham Country Park. East Wirral (Mersey Estuary) The East Wirral route takes you from the start of the Manchester Ship Canal on the banks of the River Mersey, into the woodlands of Eastham Country Park and through the area of industrial heritage of the east coast to Seacombe. Along the route you will pass near to the historic village of Port Sunlight, through the Victorian suburb of Rock Park, past Cammell Lairds Shipyard, and along to Woodside where you can see the world’s first rail tram system. 60 From Woodside Ferry Terminal and the U-boat Story you will pass the docks, the Twelve Quays Irish Ferry Terminal and on towards Seacombe, where you will find Spaceport and the best views of the Liverpool Waterfront World Heritage Site. The River Mersey was once renowned as a polluted river but now it’s not unusual to see seals, porpoise and dolphin in the Mersey. Charter fishing boats regularly pass from the Mersey to Liverpool Bay which has become one of the best inshore cod fishing grounds in north west Europe. 61 East Wirral (Mersey Estuary) Eastham Country Park 1 Eastham Country Park Eastham Country Park holds immense value and is a long- standing, major leisure and nature conservation area. It covers some 43 hectares and it is the last remaining substantial area of undeveloped land with public access on the Wirral bank of the River Mersey between Birkenhead and Ellesmere Port. Its location gives it particular importance as a local amenity, wildlife and educational resource. The site includes approximately 26 hectares of mature mixed deciduous woodland, 8 hectares of amenity grassland, 3 hectares of new plantation woodland and 3 hectares of natural grassland and scrub.
