A303 Sparkford to Ilchester dualling scheme In this edition Newsletter – summer 2019 Project update Scheme timeline Ecology surveys Highways England motorway campaign Corridor update Welcome to the A303 Sparkford to Ilchester dualling scheme newsletter. This provides a project update, information about ongoing work and detail about the A303/A358 corridor. Project update Since we last provided an update in the winter 2018 newsletter, the A303 Sparkford to Ilchester dualling scheme has been progressing through the Examination period of the Development Consent Order (DCO) process. This is the planning process required for the scheme, where the DCO application must be approved before the scheme construction can commence. On 12 June 2019 the DCO Examination for the A303 Sparkford to Ilchester dualling scheme closed. The next step in the DCO process will be for the Planning Inspectorate to write a report about the Examination for the Secretary of State for Transport. This report will include a recommendation on whether to refuse or grant the DCO. The report from the Planning Inspectorate will be issued to the Secretary of State for Transport by the end of September 2019. A three-month period will then commence enabling the Secretary of State to decide whether to grant or refuse the DCO. This means a decision should be announced by the end of 2019. The decision will be published alongside the Planning Inspectorate report on the National Infrastructure Planning website. If you would like any more information on the DCO process the project is going through please visit the National Infrastructure Planning website 1 Scheme timeline The timeline below shows the key milestones for the project and the next steps for the scheme now the Examination has closed. -

Dear Secretary of State for Transport, A303 CONSULTATION
From: To: A303 Sparkford to Ilchester Cc: [email protected] Subject: A303 Consultation Ilchester to Sparkford Date: 01 September 2020 20:25:34 Dear Secretary of State for Transport, A303 CONSULTATION – ILCHESTER/PODIMORE TO SPARKFORD We live in the village of West Camel immediately south of the section under consideration for upgrade. Having lived in the village for over 30 years we have been involved in previous consultations and do appreciate all the complexities. The initial advice given locally for this consultation was that as Option 2 appeared to be such an obvious choice that is was – “a no brainer” because: It is cheaper, quicker to build and safer as requires little in the way of entrance and exits…..so why would anyone looking at the options choose Option 1 ? Unfortunately the consultation process allowed for votes worldwide and it appeared a successful Facebook campaign from the smaller community north of the A303 called in votes from as far away as Australia to “Save our Vale”, not realising that almost as much ‘new land’ would be carved up to dual along the (broadly) existing route for Option 1 but causing abject misery and chaos for the whole build, particularly past the new primary school in Queen Camel, which Highways England didn’t initially know had been recently built. Option 1 appears to be the only section of the A303 not bypassing local communities. Ilminster, Wincanton, Sparkford and Mere to name just a few. Over time we have raised a number of concerns about process with those running the consultation –it appears that the planners can flex the area they consider as ‘local’ and in this case, they chose to flex the local boundary to as far away as 7 miles from the planned route. -
