  • Joint Note: Development That Should Have Been Assessed As Part of the Cumulative Assessment
    th Joint Statement 26 November 2016 Joint Note: Development that should have been assessed as part of the cumulative assessment Statement on behalf of: LB Hillingdon, Slough BC, South Bucks DC and Bucks CC. 1. Project 1: Western Rail Link to Heathrow th Joint Statement 26 November 2016 Highways England Comment 1.1 The Western Rail Link to Heathrow proposal it not yet either a committed project nor is it the subject of a live application. Its details and effects are not yet known. 1.2 The proposal was announced on 5 February 2014 following consideration of four options by Network Rail. At the time the assessment for the M4 Junctions 3 to 12 Smart Motorway scheme (the "Scheme") was undertaken, the proposal was at “early stages of development” following its inclusion in the Route Utilisation Strategies published in March 2010. As such, it was not at a sufficiently developed stage to be included in the cumulative assessment for the Scheme and did not come within the guidelines set out in Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (“DMRB”) for those committed, reasonably foreseeable developments that should be included in an assessment. It is understood that an application may be brought forward in due course. Any application for the construction of the Western Rail Link will be required to take the M4 Scheme into account when assessing the effect of its proposals, rather than the reverse. 1.3 Network Rail submitted a Scoping Report (Environmental Impact Assessment – Scoping Report, Western Rail Link to Heathrow, Jacobs, April 2015) to the Planning Inspectorate in April 2015 that set the principles of the proposed approach to the construction of the relocated depot.

    Item No 3 Applic No P/13062/000 Registration Date 01-Dec-2004 Ward Colnbrook-and-Poyle Ref: Mr Smyth Applicant Travelodge Hotels Ltd Agent Nathaniel Lichfield And Partners Ltd 14, REGENTS WHARF, ALL SAINTS STREET, LONDON, N1 9RL Location The Fulcrum Building, Horton Road, Colnbrook, SL3 OAT Proposal DEMOLITION OF EXISTING WAREHOUSE AND ERECTION OF A 297 BEDROOM, SIX STOREY HOTEL, ASSOCIATED WORKS AND LANDSCAPING Recommendation: Refuse 12th May 2005 1 Reason(s) 1. The development fails to comply with Policies T2 and T3 of the Adopted Local Plan for Slough 2004 in that the applicant has failed to demonstrate that the development will provide car parking in accordance with adopted Slough Borough Council Parking Standards 1998, both in terms of the levels of provision and the layout of the car parking. The development if permitted is therefore likely to lead to additional demand for on street parking in an area which currently experiences significant problems with on street parking thereby adding to existing congestion problems to the detriment of general highway safety and convenience. 2. A holding objection is raised on the grounds that the developer has not entered into a legal agreement with the Council for: the carrying out of essential off site highway works in the form of improved signage and road markings;, the provision of a shuttle bus service between the site and the 4 Terminals at Heathrow Airport; the mechanisms to be put in place for managing and operating the shuttle bus service and on site car parking, including any scale of charges to be imposed; and preparation of a Green Travel Plan for staff and guests.

  • Chapter 13 the Route of the Croydon, Merstham and Godstone Iron Railway
    CHAPTER 13 THE ROUTE OF THE CROYDON, MERSTHAM AND GODSTONE IRON RAILWAY As with the Surrey Iron Railway, the chief sources for the determination of the route of the Croydon, Merstham and Godstone Iron Railway were the tithe maps of the parishes through which it passed, supported by property conveyance and estate maps and, in this case, by London and Brighton Railway plans. Particularly useful were the 1st. edition 6-in. and 25-in. Ordnance Survey maps of the area, which show then-surviving cuttings, earthworks, and related property boundaries and footpaths. The Croydon, Merstham and Godstone Iron Railway commenced at an end-on junction with the Surrey Iron Railway at its terminus at Pitlake, and ran southeastwards to join and follow the line of the present Church Road. There was no depot, but there was a toll house, apparently situated on the west side of the railway about 60 yards north of its crossing of Church Street. Opposite this was the Y-junction of the Croydon Canal Company's Pitlake railway, running along the course of the present Tamworth Road. The line of the railway continued along the whole length of the present Church Road. Most of the northern part of this stretch was along the edge of the former grounds of Croydon Palace, a country residence of the Archbishops of Canterbury until l780. In 1781 the Palace estate was sold to Abraham Pitches, and by 1788 part of it was being used as a calico-printing and bleaching works, probably by Edward Gardner and Thomas Gill, who were working there when declared bankrupt in November, 1791.
