  • Arborfield and Newland Parish Council Written
    ARBORFIELD AND NEWLAND PARISH COUNCIL WRITTEN REPRESENTATION HIGHWAYS ENGLAND'S RESPONSE APPLICATION BY THE HIGHWAY (NOW HIGHWAYS ENGLAND) FOR AN ORDER GRANTING DEVELOPMENT CONSENT FOR THE PROPOSED M4 JUNCTIONS 3 TO 12 SMART MOTORWAY 1.1 I am writing to you to seek some assurance on a matter that we raised in our original Statement of Reason, submitted in July. 1.2 One of the issues of concern to the Council was that of reflected noise from new noise barriers that might be incorporated into the scheme. Specifically, we were aware that Earley Town Council was seeking new noise barriers on the northern side of the scheme between junctions 10 and 11. 1.3 We were heartened by the publication of the Statement of Common Ground (SOCG) between Earley Town Council and Highways England, in which the Town Council accepted that there would be no significant adverse noise impact from the scheme. The SOCG also, most helpfully, confirmed what is shown on the proposal maps: that the only new noise barriers proposed in or close to the parish of Arborfield and Newland are two short lengths across Mill Lane underbridge. We were not, therefore proposing to trouble the Examining Authority further. 1.4 However it has come to light that individual Councillors from Early may still wish to appear at the Examination and press for additional noise barrier. This is a matter of great concern to our residents living with in the noise envelope of the M4 motorway, and they have asked us to intervene on their behalf. 1.5 Rather than generate further work for the Council,

    From: Sent: 27 March 2020 11:36 To: [email protected] Subject: GE202003362 - ONR resposne to Wokingham Borough Council Local plan Update Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Completed Dear Sir/Madam, In response to your emails dated 3 February and 18 March regarding the 2020 Wokingham Borough Local Plan Update consultation, please find below ONR’s response, which is provided in line with our Land Use Planning policy published here http://www.onr.org.uk/land-use-planning.htm. Since ONR responded to the previous draft Local Plan Update consultation on 21 January 2019 (see email below) the proposed development locations included in the draft local plan have significantly changed. Additionally, the Detailed Emergency Planning Zone (DEPZ) for the AWE Burghfield site has been re-determined by West Berkshire District Council under the Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations (REPPIR) 2019 resulting in a larger DEPZ. ONR’s current position remains that we would be likely to object to: • developments within the DEPZ, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. • large scale developments within the circular 5km Outer Consultation Zone (OCZ), which extends beyond the DEPZ from grid reference SU684680, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. ONR has previously responded regarding the two development locations below which are included in both the 2018/19 Local Plan Update consultation and the 2020 Local Plan Update consultation: 1.

A review of existing archaeological and historical sources suggested that the Site has a low potential for containing deposits of Prehistoric to Medieval date, and a high potential for containing deposits relating to a terrace of late 19th century buildings. Farming and various phases of construction in the 19th onwards is likely to have truncated to an unknown extent any archaeological deposits across much of the site. _____________________________________________________________________ i Archaeology South-East Lion House, Slough _____________________________________________________________________ CONTENTS 1.
