Lings Primary School is located off Hayeswood Road, Northampton as shown on the location plan enclosed in Appendix A. 1.2 The objective of this report is to provide the Planning Authority and Local Highway Authority (LHA) with sufficient information to consider the highways issues of the proposed school extension for a planning application. 1.3 This report was scoped with Mr R. Sim-Jones of Northamptonshire County Council, the Local Highway Authority, who advised that a Transport Statement would be the appropriate level of assessment for the proposed extension of Lings Primary School. 2.0 Site Description and Proposed School Extension 2.1 Lings Primary School is located off Hayeswood Road, Northampton as shown on the location plan BCAL Dwg No 4875-10 enclosed in Appendix A. The school is located in the east of Northampton in a predominately residential area. 2.2 Lings Primary School is for pupils aged from 4 to 11 years, and currently has 210 pupils. It is proposed to expand the school from a 1 to a 2 form entry. An additional form for the school will result in a proposed capacity of 420 pupils. The proposed extension is shown on the Architecture Initiative Dwg No LG-04 Job No AI_2058 enclosed in Appendix B. 2.3 Lings Primary School currently has 22 full time and 10 part time staff. As a result of the extension the staff numbers will increase to 44 full time and 20 part time members. O:\\projects\4800\4875\Technical\Reports\4875R010 - Lings Primary School\4875R010A TS.pdf 3 4875R010A Transport Statement Extension of Lings Primary School, Northampton October 2012 3.0 Surrounding Highway Infrastructure 3.1 The surrounding highway infrastructure is shown on BCAL Dwg No 4875-102 in Appendix C. The main point of entry into the school is a shared pedestrian/vehicular access which is located off Hayeswood Road. Hayeswood Road is 7.3m wide and bound by a 1.8m wide footway on the southern (school side) of the carriageway. Hayeswood Road is subject to a 20mph (32kph) speed restriction, has traffic calming measures and the added benefit of street lighting. 3.2 Hayeswood Road has two zebra crossings located adjacent to the school’s northern site boundary. 3.3 The school’s main entrance is covered by the white no-parking zig-zag road markings associated with the pedestrian crossing to the west of the school access. 3.4 Hayeswood Road connects with the other highway networks Billing Brook Road in the westbound direction and Lings Way in the eastbound direction. Billing Brook Road is a north/south route for vehicles travelling to and from Weston Favell Shopping Centre. Lings Way connects local residential areas to the wider highway networks the A5076 Talavera Way and the A4500 Wellingborough Road at its northern and southern extents respectively. 3.5 There are bus stops located within a 225m radius from the school’s main pedestrian/vehicular access on Hayeswood Road and Billing Brook Road. 3.6 The surrounding road network is subject to a 20mph (32kph) speed restriction which is denoted as an ‘Advisory Cycle Route’ which provides adequate links for those cyclists predicted to be generated from the school’s expansion. The sustainable transport facilities within close proximity to the school can be seen on BCAL drawing no 4875-103 enclosed in Appendix C. 3.7 The area surrounding the school benefits from numerous footways giving access to the adjacent residential area. 3.8 If a 1m width of both footpaths either side of the carriageway are utilised at 25 pedestrians per minute a 2FE school (420 pupils + 354 parents) will take 8mins to pass a distance of 73m. It should be noted that this is a very conservative value as it assumes all parents walking alongside their children. We therefore consider that footways within the vicinity of the school appear to be of sufficient width to provide adequate facilities for pedestrian users at the school. 3.9 The footways within the vicinity of the site have dropped kerbs and tactile paving at appropriate locations.

Vehicular traffic for this point of entry is generally used by staff and visitors only; however, parents are allowed to drop off for morning clubs. 4.2 The school currently has six pedestrian only accesses. These include 3 adjacent the western site boundary opposite House No’s 5 and 8 Nethermead Court; 1 adjacent the southern site boundary opposite House No 34 Hangerfield Court and 2 adjacent the eastern site boundary opposite House No’s 40 and 41 South Paddock Court. 4.3 Lings Primary School currently has no cycle parking spaces. As a result of the proposed 10 cycle parking spaces will be provided. 4.4 The existing school has 25 car parking spaces including 3 disabled spaces, and there is also a space for a minibus. As a result of the expansion, car parking spaces will increase to 25 spaces plus 3 disabled spaces. O:\\projects\4800\4875\Technical\Reports\4875R010 - Lings Primary School\4875R010A TS.pdf 5 4875R010A Transport Statement Extension of Lings Primary School, Northampton October 2012 5.0 Vehicle Movement Observations 5.1 Vehicle movements on Hayeswood Road, Poppyfield Crescent, Nethermead Court, Hangerfield Court and South Paddock Court were observed at the school on 25th October 2012 between 8:00am and 9:00am. The school gates are opened at 8.45am and closed shortly after 9.00am. 5.2 Parents and guardians who drive their children to school tend to utilise Nethermead Court, Hangerfield Court and South Paddock Court as a drop off point or park. No vehicles were observed parking on Hayeswood Road or Poppyfield Crescent. 5.3 The number of vehicles observed was low. Parents/guardians dropping children off tended to park close to the pedestrian access leading into the school. Vehicles tend to park in vacant parking spaces or in front of garages but do not impede drives. 5.4 As would be anticipated there was a low number of vehicle movements on Hayeswood Road during the morning peak hour due to the traffic calming and alternative local routes. Observed traffic flows on the residential roads was equally low. Traffic was generally free flowing with no observed conflicts or safety issues. 5.5 There were no observed traffic movement issues which we believe could be significantly exacerbated by the proposed extension of Lings Primary School.

Details are correct at the time of writing the report. The location of sustainable transport facilities and walking/cycling distances are shown in Appendix C.

I am sure all members will join me in wishing him a full and speedy recovery and a quick return to the Guildhall. On 26th March we announced that the Borough Council is working with Local Government Shared Services (LGSS), the organisation set up to share services between Northamptonshire County Council and Cambridgeshire County Council, to explore the potential of joining the partnership. LGSS was set up more than a year ago to provide a wide range of support services for both local authorities. Since the establishment of LGSS, the two founding authorities have saved £11 million and to join the partnership could pave the way for savings for Northampton Borough Council in administration and other back office costs. The Borough Council is at an early stage in negotiations with LGSS and no decision has yet been made over which services could be included in any sharing agreement. LGSS provides a full range of back-office services, including IT, HR, finance, property and asset management and other services. The Northampton Alive Roadshow meetings have started with members of the Cabinet and myself going out and speaking to the public at a series of public meetings.

  • Northampton Local Plan
    CASTELLO FORTIOR CONCORDIA NORTHAMPTON BOROUGH COUNCIL NORTHAMPTON LOCAL PLAN 1993-2006 ADOPTED JUNE 1997 WRITTEN STATEMENT Indicating Saved Policies as amended by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government September 2007 David Moir Director of Environment Services June 1997 FOREWORD Northampton is rapidly developing town - fortunate in having within its boundary a blend of old and new. It combines a historic town centre, former village communities, modern housing areas and a diverse range of employers with parks and open spaces which extend right into the heart of the town. It is an environment of which we are proud. Almost thirty years ago Northampton was designated a new town and under the auspices of the Development Corporation, Northampton expanded significantly through the implementation of the Northampton Master Plan. The momentum of growth remains, but it is important to ensure that future development adds to the quality of the environment in Northampton. The adopted Local Plan forms the basis for all decisions relating to land use within the Borough. It reflects many comments and representations made during its preparation as well as taking on board the recommendations of a Planning Inspector appointed by the Department of Environment following a Public Inquiry into remaining objections. The Plan aims to guide the further expansion of Northampton. It seeks to conserve important open spaces, encourage a balanced mix of residential, business and leisure development and promote good sustainable transport initiatives. In essence it seeks to produce an environment which enhances Northampton for the benefit of all. In conclusion, I wish to pay tribute to the late Councillor Roger Alder who steered the Plan through the majority of its stages as chair of the Planning Committee.

NOTICES OF MOTION (i) Councillor Wire DL to move and Councillor Eales to second: “Labour introduced the St Crispins Street Fair in the early nineties with the assistance of both the showmen and dedicated and enthusiastic officers of the Council. It brought pleasure to thousands of local residents, children and visitors to the Town. It became one of the biggest Fairs in the Country and it has been sadly missed. The previous Tory administration presided over its demise by scrapping the event. Council calls on the Administration to reintroduce the St Crispins Street Fair and having lost so many events over the last eight years bringing the event back will reinvigorate the Town Centre. It will also be in line with the Councils ‘Love Northampton’, introducing the street fair would be a good start.” (ii) Councillor Palethorpe to move and Councillor Gowen to second: This Council is concerned that the Conservative Administration appears to be reneging on a promise by them to ‘hold a series of public meetings’ made at the last Council full meeting on 12th March 2012.

  • Joint Core Strategy Local Plan (Part 1)
    West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy Local Plan (Part 1) Adopted - December 2014 West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy Local Plan (Part 1) Adopted DEC 2014 1.0 Foreword The importance of "Strategic Planning" which shapes and makes the places in which people live, work and play cannot be overstated. The alternative would, in all likelihood, result in an uncoordinated approach through speculative developer-led planning and related applications. This West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy Local Plan is a key document in ensuring places are shaped and made in a way which meets the needs of the people of today whilst ensuring the needs of future generations are safeguarded. This Local Plan forms Part 1 of the suite of Local Plans in West Northamptonshire that will, together, guide the evolution of Northampton, Daventry and South Northamptonshire in the years that lie ahead. It provides a long-term vision for the area with an overall framework in which more detailed plans will be drawn up and decisions made. It contains a broad planning strategy aimed at meeting that vision, and contains core strategic policies, which the Partner Councils - Daventry District, Northampton Borough, South Northamptonshire and Northamptonshire County Councils - believe will provide sound guidance in the years ahead. This Joint Core Strategy provides a strategic framework to guide the preparation of Part 2 Local Plans which will provide more detailed planning policies and site allocations for each of the partner Borough and District Councils. The whole community has had a real opportunity to positively and collectively influence and improve the way we do things in the future - in the way we use land, we build, and how we shape our environment.

  • Executive NORTHAMPTON CASTLE STATION AREA: SITE
    Executive Item No 18th July 2005 Portfolio: NORTHAMPTON CASTLE Directorate: Living STATION AREA: Author/Contact Officer: SITE DEVELOPMENT PRINCIPLES Noreen Banks Senior Planning Officer Tel: (01604) 837835 Purpose of Report The purpose of this report is to seek Committee endorsement on the principles of development opportunities and regeneration for Northampton Castle Station and its surrounding areas. These principles have been outlined in the interim statement attached to this Committee report . Recommendation(s) It is recommended that; • the contents of the interim statement attached be agreed and • the statement be submitted as part of the consultants brief to prepare a feasibility study and masterplan for the area Summary and Links to Corporate Plan The interim statement establishes the principles of development options which is envisaged to secure the sustainable redevelopment and regeneration of the site. It is anticipated that the principles and options, once translated into a masterplan, could significantly improve the physical characteristics of Northampton Station, meet current and future passenger demand, achieve a sustainable multi-modal network, and contribute towards the housing and employment requirements set out in Regional Spatial Strategy 8 and the Milton Keynes South Midlands South Regional Strategy. The Corporate Plan refers to the fact that Northampton is one of the areas chosen by the Government to deliver economic, social and housing growth under the Sustainable Communities Plan. The redevelopment of the Station and surrounding areas gives the Borough Council an opportunity to play a strong and influential role in securing the best outcome for the area and the town as a whole. The whole project has, to date, involved partnership working and communication between the Borough Council , County Council, the West Northamptonshire Development Corporation, Network Rail and Invest Northamptonshire.
