  • Runnymede Borough Council, Civic Centre, Station Road, Addlestone
    The Planning Inspectorate National Infrastructure Planning Temple Quay House 2 The Square Bristol BS1 6PN Emailed to: [email protected] FAO Mr Hefin Jones 25 July 2019 Dear Sir/Madam Location: Southampton to London Pipeline Project Proposal: Notification from Esso of acceptance of their DCO application (by the Planning Inspectorate) and deadline for registering as a Interested Party Following the Planning Inspectorate’s acceptance of an application for a Development Consent Order (DCO) for the Southampton to London Pipeline, Runnymede Borough Council requests to be registered as an Interested Party at the Examination. Runnymede Borough Council (RBC) is a host Borough and also landowner affected by the development. Chertsey Meads, a public open space owned by the Council is a key parcel of land required to be used to enable the pipeline to go under the River Thames. Runnymede Borough Council is not a unitary authority and therefore a number of matters, such as Highways, Transport and Archaeology fall within the remit of Surrey County Council (SCC). Esso’s discussions with SCC have not been shared with RBC and therefore RBC are now making enquiries as to SCC’s position. This letter provides a summary of the main aspects of the proposal which RBC is presently in a position to confirm that it agrees and/or disagrees, together with an appropriate explanation, in accordance with the Planning Inspectorate Advice Note 8.3. The response below is an initial response as the Council is currently reviewing the detailed documentation submitted with the DCO application and therefore the Council reserves the right to make further written representations during the examination should it be required.

  • Longcross Studios Drainage & Services, Chertsey
    CASE STUDY Date: 2020 Works: Drainage and Major Services Relocation Sector: Redevelopment Longcross Studios Drainage & Services, Chertsey OVERVIEW: Lawson Group was awarded the title of principal contractor for this prestigious project located near Chertsey, approximately 25 miles west of London. It involved the removal of specific buildings, and a drainage and services package within the site. Set in over 200 acres, the area first started life as a Ministry of Defence site. In its MoD days, the site was run as the Military Vehicles and Engineering Establishment (MVEE), which was a British defence research unit. During the 1960s, the famous ceramic Chobham armour, along with other armoured vehicle designs, was conceived here. In 2006 the site was taken over by Longcross Film Studios. Over the years, numerous buildings, office blocks and workshops ranging in size from 2,000 sq. ft to 13,000 sq. ft were built on the site, all of which have recently been used by various leading production companies. Many blockbuster films such as Thor 2, Fast and Furious 6 and Skyfall have been made at Longcross Studios. This first phase of Longcross studios was approx. 50 acres in size and was referred to as C1 and C2. CHALLENGE: Care would need to be taken as works would continue around live services such as water, electricity, telecoms, and gas. Being an ex-MOD site, there could be a risk of unexploded ordnance (UXOs) buried in the ground. Licensed asbestos was identified in multiple buildings, so this would need removing subject to a Plan of Works for each unit.

  • Runnymede Borough Council
    Air Quality Action Plan for Runnymede Borough Council In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management April 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Under the system of local Air Quality Management introduced by the Environment Act 1995, local authorities have a duty to work in pursuit of air quality objectives and work towards their achievement in a cost effective way. An area identified as unlikely to meet the objectives must be designated as an Air Quality Management Area (AQMA). After declaring an AQMA, a local authority is required to prepare a remedial Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) to improve air quality in that area. An AQAP must provide a quantification of the source contributions to the exceedences of the relevant objectives, evidence that all available options have been considered, a plan of how the local authority will use its powers and also work in conjunction with other organisations to implement the AQAP, timescales for AQAP implementation and an impact assessment of the proposed measures. Annual review and assessment reports (summarised in Section 1.4) give an account of the current air quality in Runnymede and identify areas where national targets might not be met. As road traffic is the major source of pollution in Runnymede, the main air pollutants are nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and fine particulates. The air quality across the Borough is generally good; however, nitrogen dioxide concentrations can be of concern close to roads carrying large traffic flows or near busy congested roads in town centres. So far, Runnymede declared two AQMAs in the following areas: along the M25 (all across the Borough – declared in 2001 for both nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter (PM) and in Addlestone Town Centre (declared in 2008 for nitrogen dioxide).
