In particular, Development Briefs will be prepared to provide detailed guidance on the implementation of the main site allocations. Improving access to the Waterside 3.4 The Transport section (7.9) of the Core Strategy notes that access to Totton and the Waterside is “not so good”, particularly as the A326 is often congested. Core Strategy Policy CS23 states support for improvements that reduce congestion, improve accessibility and improve road safety. Core Strategy Policy CS23 also details some specific transport proposals in Totton and the Waterside that can help achieve this. The transport schemes detailed below are those that are not specific to a particular settlement within the Totton and Waterside area, but have wider implications for this area as a whole.

  • Hurst Spit to Lymington Project Introductory Briefing Note
    Final June 2020 Hurst Spit to Lymington Project Introductory Briefing Note Introduction The Environment Agency in partnership with New Forest District Council, Hampshire County Council and Natural England with expert support from JBA Consulting are exploring a sustainable future for the coastal frontage between Hurst Spit and Lymington in relation to flood and coastal erosion risk management. This project aims to investigate if and how to respond to the significant challenges facing this area of coastline now and into the future, and how to fund any potential works going forward. This Briefing sets out more details, and we welcome your questions and input as the project develops. This coastal frontage is located within the New Forest and extends from Milford-on- Sea in the west, encompasses Keyhaven and Pennington Marshes extending up the Lymington River to the east (see Figure 1). The Hurst Spit to Lymington coastline is characterised by large areas of low-lying coastal habitats, including mudflats, saltmarsh and vegetated shingle. The existing defences, as well as protecting local communities, protects large areas of coastal grazing marsh and coastal lagoons. The habitats and the species which can be found along this section of coast are of international importance. The rich biodiversity creates the stunning landscape, which is accompanied by cultural and historical heritage of significant status. For these reasons the area attracts substantial visitor numbers and is enjoyed by a range of recreational users, for activities such as walking, sailing and fishing. These factors along with natural coastal processes will need to be carefully considered as the project develops.

We have ambitious plans to support the growth of our economy and provide much needed homes, but also to deliver this in a way that enhances the special environment of the area. We believe the Waterside has the potential to become a national exemplar for delivering growth in an environmentally sensitive area. Totton is the main town within the Waterside. The Growth Opportunity • Fawley Refinery (ExxonMobil) – the UK’s largest refinery, representing 20% of UK capacity, with a major ongoing investment programme encompassing increased output of ultra-low sulphur diesel; • Fawley Waterside – the former Power Station and one of the largest brownfield development sites in the South of England, with plans to deliver a new sustainable community and centre of marine and maritime innovation; • Marchwood Military Port (Solent Gateway) – the UK’s only combined military and

  • Report Re A336 7.5 Tonne Weight Limit Proposal
    COPYTHORNE PARISH COUNCIL MEETING – 13th APRIL 2021 ITEM 10 – A336 (Southampton Road through Cadnam & Bartley and Ringwood Road through Netley Marsh) – Proposal to HCC Highways for a 7.5 tonne Weight Limit Background At the March 9th 2021 Council meeting, a resident of Netley Marsh spoke in the public session about a proposal being presented to Netley Marsh Parish Council seeking their support for a 7.5 tonne weight limit on the A336 through Netley Marsh. Given that the A336 continues westwards from Netley Marsh through Bartley and Cadnam, similar support was sought from Copythorne Parish Council. Current position Netley Marsh Parish Council has confirmed it’s support and we have been provided with a copy of the document giving full details of the proposal that will be submitted to HCC Highways (Appendix 1) to this report. (Note:- In the first paragraph of Section 2 (Introduction) of the document reference is made to the proposal being “supported by Netley Marsh Parish and Copythorne Parish Councils on behalf of the residents of the impacted villages.” The support of Copythorne Parish Council is being requested and has not yet been agreed. Key Points to consider i. Such a weight limit would greatly reduce the level of larger vehicles using the Southampton Road through the Parish. ii. A 7.5 tonne weight limit is already in place from the A336 roundabout with the A326 (“Goodies”) through to the centre of Totton. iii. The limit would not apply to vehicles requiring access to businesses etc. along the route, such as to the saw mill at Bartley, the garden centre at Cadnam, school buses, etc.
