Bypasses and Major Highway Improvements in the Aylesbury Vale AGENDA ITEM: 11 BYPASSES AND MAJOR HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENTS IN AYLESBURY VALE AREA BUCKS STREET ATLAS PAGES 58,69,70,79,80,88,89,102 & 115 NO PLANS DISPLAYED To: Local Committee (Aylesbury Vale) Date: 17 January 2001 Author: Head of Transportation A PURPOSE OF REPORT 1 To inform the committee of current and future major proposals for improving the highway network in the Aylesbury Vale. B PROPOSED ACTION 2 The Local Committee is invited to: NOTE the contents of this report which is written for information purposes only C RESOURCES APPRAISAL 3 No costs are attributable to this report. D SUPPORTING INFORMATION A4146 Stoke Hammond and Linslade Western Bypass 3 This scheme was accepted for Government funding in December 1999, on the understanding that more work was required to determine the appropriate funding mechanism. In November 2000, after comparisons between conventional funding and private finance initiative (PFI) funding had been carried out, the Government wrote to confirm that the analysis had been inconclusive and that the choice of funding would be left to the County Council, but if the conventional method of TSG and SCA was favoured, the Government grant would be capped. 4 Discussions have since taken place with government officials and more meetings are expected to finalise details. 5 The decision letter in December 2000 included continued recognition of the need for this scheme as a provisionally accepted scheme and reserved the sum of £1.366m SCA to progress the work. 6 The County Council has approved the publishing of the Side Road and Compulsory Purchase Orders for the scheme and it is hoped to publish them in the New Year. 7 The planning approval for section of the scheme in Buckinghamshire was approved in April 1997 which should allow time to commence construction before the permission runs out. However the planning approval for the section of the scheme in Bedfordshire runs out in January 2001. An application to renew the original approval is with South Bedfordshire District Council at this time. A meeting with members and officers from the District Council and Bedfordshire County Council, was held on 10 October 2000 to discuss the scheme, when all parties continued to support the scheme. 8 The scheme is currently programmed for construction to commence in January 2003. Full details and costing of the scheme can be found in Volume 3 of the Current L TP . 9 Bill Chapple has reported recent changes in the funding of the scheme. The text of his announcement is enclosed below: STOKE HAMMOND/LINSLADE WESTERN BYPASS Following the Government’s acceptance, in its 1999 Transport Settlement, of Buckinghamshire County Council's bid for the Stoke Hammond/Linslade Western Bypass, this scheme is now closer to final agreement. Last year the Government Office made it clear that they, together with the County Council, would determine the most appropriate funding mechanism for the Bypass. There were two choices - conventional (the method used for funding the Wendover and Tingewick Bypasses), or private finance (PFI). Over the past 12 months comparisons of the two funding methods have taken place, and whilst the conventional method is the preferred option of the County Council, the results of the analysis have been inconclusive when considering overall benefits. In recognition of this the Government has recently written to the Council offering a choice of option to follow. The County Council is therefore pressing ahead with the conventionally .funded offer, however, the Council will be having further discussions with the Government to agree on acceptable funding levels. Bill Chapple, Deputy Leader, said: “Up until today we only had agreement in principal from the Government for this Bypass. We are now one step closer to final agreement for this scheme. It should not be too long until Stoke Hammond, Soulbury and the gated road through to Wing will return back to its residents as opposed to cars. The Bypass will also make it easier for people to travel from the county town of Aylesbury to Milton Keynes.” The total cost of the scheme is currently estimated at £40m, with contributions expected from Bedfordshire County Council and a developer. A418 Improvements to the road east of Bierton including a Wing Bypass 10 The current LTP includes for improvements to this strategic highway connecting the proposed Aylesbury Link Road east of Bierton up to the A4146 Stoke Hammond and Linslade Western Bypass. The residents of Wing are behind the County Council in the development of a bypass for Wing. The remainder of the A418 to Bierton will be improved on line except for a local bypass to Rowsham for which an improvement line has been reserved for some time. 11 During this financial year it is proposed to undertake a topographical survey of all the possible route corridors. Hyder can then commence a research of the likely constraints to enable preliminary designs of suitable options to be prepared. A panel of County Councillors and Parish Council members from Wing will be set up to guide the development of a bypass for Wing. 12 Further details of the proposals for this new Major Scheme can be found in Volume 3 of the Current LTP. A418 Oxford Road, Aylesbury. Bridge Reconstruction and Bus Lane 13 A contract to reconstruct the existing railway bridge in order to remove the current 7.5 tonne weight restriction was awarded to Edmund Nuttall of West Drayton in October this year. At the same time and as part of the same contract, the opportunity has been taken to extend the bus lane from Fowler Road to Friarage Road, to provide a roundabout outside the college and Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School and to undertake other essential maintenance works to this section of road. The overall cost of these works is approximately £4 million. 14 Unfortunately the commencement date of these works were delayed from that envisaged due to problems with finalizing agreements with Railtrack and the contract finally commenced on the 30th October 2000. However, it is envisaged that these works would be substantially completed by Christmas 2001 despite the delay, due to the Contractor’s expectation that he will complete the works in a shorter timescale than originally envisaged. The work is programmed to take place in three separate phases as outlined below: The first phase of the works for this contract commenced in late October and it is expected to last till the middle of April 2001. This will include the installation of a temporary roundabout at the school/college entrance, the construction of the widened road embankment and half of the new Railway Bridge, the diversion of the existing brooks and widening of the adjacent subway. Additionally work will commence on the construction of the new bus lane, and cycleway at the side of the Railway Bridge. It is anticipated that for the majority of this phase, two-way traffic flow will be maintained using reduced width traffic flows. However, occasional off peak traffic signals during the week and at any time during the weekend may be necessary to restrict the road to single lane running to undertake certain operations safely. The second phase of the works primarily involves the diversion of telephone cables, gas and water pipes along the length of this road. It is hoped that this can be done with relatively little disruption to traffic although the occasional use of traffic signals at off peak times is almost inevitable. This phase is expected to run between the middle of April 2001 to August 2001. The third phase, will be carried out with traffic running on the first section of the new bridge whilst the old bridge is demolished to allow the remainder of the new one to be built. This is expected to take 14 weeks between August and Christmas 2001. During this period there will be only one available lane for traffic on Oxford Road at all times and this will be used by traffic entering the town. Traffic in the opposite direction out of the town centre will have to follow alternative routes. The only exception to this will be local bus services, which will be allowed to use Oxford Road in both directions by the use of traffic signal control. During phase 3 a diversion route for traffic will be signed which will recommend drivers to utilise the following roads; Coldharbour Way - Griffin Lane - Gatehouse Road - Big Hand Mo junction rather than Oxford Road. This is the route currently signed for vehicles over 7.5T and drivers will be advised to use this route during phases 1 and 2. During phase 3 some form of traffic signal control will have to be used at the Big Hand Mo junction as otherwise the traffic trying to exit Oxford Road towards the town centre will not be able to, due to the continual flow of traffic travelling across the junction onto the signed diversion route i.e. Gatehouse Road Upon completion of phase 3 there will be a period of reduced width two-way traffic flow for general completion and tidying up of associated works. It is envisaged that the works will be substantially complete by Christmas 2001. 15 It is currently anticipated that the major landscaping works planned for this area will be implemented in the autumn of 2002.

The Manor enjoys a commanding yet relatively private position in the heart of the village with most stunning views eastwards over open countryside and up to the village of Great Brickhill in the far distance. Under the custodianship of the current owners the house has been sympathetically renovated and modernised, yet has lost none of its original charm and many period features remain. The property is presented in excellent condition and the layout and feel of the house is classic Georgian. Deep sash windows allow natural light to flood into the rooms, which radiate out from the central reception hall and galleried landing. The formal reception rooms run along the south elevation with the recently refurbished kitchen/ breakfast room running along the rear. The first floor offers four generous double bedrooms all enjoying views over the manicured grounds. The Manor benefits from an idyllic position centrally located and approached over a tree lined drive. The attractive grounds are a pure delight and surround the property on all sides with mature hedgerows and specimen trees gracing the boundaries.

  • 5 Year Housing Land Supply Position Statement June 2018
    Aylesbury Vale District Council - Five year housing land supply position statement, June 2018 Purpose of this position statement 1.0 Paragraph 47-49 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF, 2012) requires local planning authorities to identify and keep up-to-date a deliverable five year housing land supply against their housing requirements. Where the Council cannot demonstrate a 5 year housing land supply, there is a presumption in favour of sustainable development in line with the NPPF (para 14). Having an understanding of supply is also key to fulfilling the NPPF requirement to demonstrate the expected rate of housing delivery and how housing targets will be met (paragraph 47). 1.1 This position statement sets out the approach to meeting housing requirements in Aylesbury Vale pending the adoption of the new Local Plan (the Vale of Aylesbury Local Plan, VALP). This statement sets out how the current housing supply has been calculated, and the housing requirement target, to be used by the Council in order to apply the appropriate development plan policy tests and the tests set out in the NPPF when determining relevant planning applications in the period before VALP is adopted. 1.2 The five year housing land supply calculation is dynamic and changes as planning permissions are granted and as existing commitments are completed. Therefore it is important that any developer considering submitting a planning application should consider the latest position on the five year housing supply calculation from the Council. It is intended that the position statement is a living draft that will be regularly updated as the evidence emerges through the Local Plan preparation processes.

    THE ARCHAEOLOGY AND HISTORY OF RENNY LODGE: ROMANO-BRITISH FARMSTEAD, WORKHOUSE, HOSPITAL, HOUSES CAROLINE BUDD AND A.D. CROCKETT with contributions from KAYT BROWN, CATHERINE BARNETT (NEE CHISHAM), JESSICA M GRIMM, LORRAINE MEPHAM AND CHRIS STEVENS Archaeological investigation on the site of the former Renny Lodge Hospital, Newport Pagnell, identified at least three phases of Romano-British activity, focused on a small roadside settle- ment, as well as a handful of poorly-dated post-Roman features probably relating to the agri- cultural use of the area. It also identified the probable routes of two suspected roads, one of Roman date, the other possibly of medieval origin. The only evidence for prehistoric activity comprised a small assemblage of worked flint recovered from later deposits. In the mid 1830s the Newport Pagnell Union Workhouse, later Renny Lodge Hospital, was constructed on the site. Although demolished to ground level in 1994, a coherent structural sequence has been established from the survey of the building's footprint coupled with cartographic and documen- tary evidence. The site has subsequently been developed to provide affordable housing. INTRODUCTION above Ordnance Datum, on a very slight west- facing promontory overlooking the River Ouzel.

  • Aylesbury Vale North Locality Profile
    Aylesbury Vale North Locality Profile Prevention Matters Priorities The Community Links Officer (CLO) has identified a number of key Prevention Matters priorities for the locality that will form the focus of the work over the next few months. These priorities also help to determine the sort of services and projects where Prevention Matters grants can be targeted. The priorities have been identified using the data provided by the Community Practice Workers (CPW) in terms of successful referrals and unmet demand (gaps where there are no appropriate services available), consultation with district council officers, town and parish councils, other statutory and voluntary sector organisations and also through the in depth knowledge of the cohort and the locality that the CLO has gained. The CLO has also worked with the other CLOs across the county to identify some key countywide priorities which affect all localities. Countywide Priorities Befriending Community Transport Aylesbury Vale North Priorities Affordable Day Activities Gentle Exercise Low Cost Gardening Services Dementia Services Social Gardening Men in Sheds Outreach for Carers Background data Physical Area The Aylesbury Vale North locality (AV North) is just less than 200 square miles in terms of land area (500 square kilometres). It is a very rural locality in the north of Buckinghamshire. There are officially 63 civil parishes covering the area (approximately a third of the parishes in Bucks). There are 2 small market towns, Buckingham and Winslow, and approximately 70 villages or hamlets (as some of the parishes cover more than one village). Population The total population of the Aylesbury Vale North locality (AV North) is 49,974 based on the populations of the 63 civil parishes from the 2011 Census statistics.

  • Buckinghamshire
    Buckinghamshire Later Bronze Age and Iron Age Historic Environment Resource Assessment Sandy Kidd June 2007 Nature of the evidence The Sites and Monuments Records for Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes attributes 1622 records (monuments and find spots) to the Iron Age and a further 144 records to the Middle or Late Bronze Age representing about 9.4% of total SMR records. Also, many formally undated cropmark sites probably actually date to the Bronze Age or Iron Age. In addition evidence for the survival of putatively prehistoric landscapes into modern times needs to be considered (see landscape section). Later prehistoric sites have been recognised in Buckinghamshire since the 19 th century with useful summaries of the state of knowledge at the beginning of the twentieth century being provided by the Royal Commission for Historical Monuments and Victoria County History. Essentially knowledge was restricted to a few prominent earthwork monuments and a handful of distinctive finds, mostly from the Chilterns and Thames (Clinch, 1905; RCHME, 1912 & 1913). By 1955 Jack Head was able to identify a concentration of Iron Age hillforts, settlement sites and finds along the Chiltern scarp along with a few sites (mainly hillforts) on the dipslope and a scattering of sites along the Thames. A few of these sites, notably Bulstrode and Cholesbury Camps and an apparently open settlement on Lodge Hill, Saunderton had been investigated by trial trenching (Head, 1955, 62-78). By 1979 it was possible to draw upon a wider range of evidence including modern excavations, aerial photography and environmental archaeology referring to sites in the Ouse valley as well as the Chilterns, open settlements as well as hillforts and evidence for extensive open grassland environments from the Bronze Age onwards (Reed, 1979, 35-41).

  • AVDC Sub Groups Local Lettings Policy
    AVDC local lettings policy Scheme details Development/Estate name Any general need housing to which AVDC has nomination rights (excluding Rural Exception Schemes). RSL Any Local Lettings Policy – 15 May 2014 Commencement Date End Date To be reviewed in May 2015 Total number of properties in N/a estate/development Number of properties subject to proposed 50% of new build properties Local Lettings Policy 25% of re let properties Property type and number of beds and Nos. of Supported Rented Intermediate persons units Housing General need, re-let properties 25% of N/a Y N total General need, new build properties 50% of N/a Y N total Justification for local lettings policy Choice based lettings means that qualifying applicants are able to choose to express interest in any properties which become available and are the appropriate size and match their needs. Applicants who express interest in properties are then prioritised by their level of housing need (Bands A- D) and then how long they have been on the Housing Register. No consideration has previously been given to where in the District the applicant is from or where the property is located. Following previous direction from Members at Environment and Living Scrutiny Committee officers developed a scheme which was subsequently approved at cabinet and council. This scheme divides Aylesbury Vale into four ‘sub groups’ and allows some extra preference to be given to applicants with a connection to their local community. For the purposes of this local lettings policy, Aylesbury Vale is split into four groups, (Greater Aylesbury, North, South West and South East) which are broadly consistent with current LAF (local area forum) areas.
