  • 5. Network Planning for Walking
    Central Lancashire Walking and Cycling Delivery Plan 5. Network Planning for Walking The future walking network has been derived through identifying those areas which would benefit from creating a sustainable link between trip origins and trip destinations within a reasonable walking distance of approximately 2km. Trip origins predominantly include densely populated residential areas and trip destinations include educational, employment and retail areas which are likely to attract a significant number of trips. As part of this process, funnel routes have been identified which incorporate the route which most pedestrians will follow to access a particular destination, however given the diverse nature of pedestrian movements, the routes do not extend into particular destinations since the route of each individual user will vary depending on their individual trip origin/end. In alignment with LCWIP guidance, Core Walking Zones have also been identified from identifying the area within each town which encompasses the greatest amount of trip attractors and therefore likely the generate the greatest levels of walking. The Four Core Walking Zones (CWZ) identified are: • Preston CWZ; • Lostock Hall CWZ; • Leyland CWZ; and • Chorley CWZ. 41 Central Lancashire Walking and Cycling Delivery Plan 5.1 Proposed Walking Routes 5.1.1 Preston Core Walking Zone Figure 5-1 Preston CWZ / Funnel Routes The Preston CWZ proposals will improve facilities for both pedestrians and cyclists alike, making it safer and easier to access Preston inner city centre, UCLAN, Cardinal Newman College, and transport hubs such as Preston Railway and Bus Stations. Measures predominantly involve pedestrian priority / informal streets, to improve the safety and accessibility of the town centre for pedestrians.

    TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1990 APPEAL SITES AT GOOSNARGH CLOSING ON STRATEGIC POLICY Introduction 1. This Closing will address the Appellants’ collective case in respect of Strategic Policy that is common to all appeals A – G. 2. The Opening that was provided at the beginning of the Inquiry is adopted without further repetition. Policy Context 3. For the purposes of the determination of this appeal, the Statutory Development Plan consists of: (a) Central Lancashire Core Strategy1 (adopted July 2012); (b) Preston Local Plan (Site Allocations and Development Management Policies DPD)2 (adopted July 2015). 4. Save for Appeal F, the RfR for all the appeals only allege conflict with CS Policy 1 and LP Policy EN.1. 1 HA1. 2 HA2. 1 5. Save for Appeal Site F that is adjacent to Longridge it is further agreed by the Appellants that the appeal proposals conflict with these policies in the Statutory Development Plan. Issues 6. It is agreed that there are two routes to the tilted balance in Paragraph 11(d) of NPPF. These are: (i) An absence of a 5 YS of housing land; and (ii) The most important policies for determining the appeal applications are out-of-date. 7. In terms of (i) above, if Mr Pycroft’s evidence and the Appellants’ combined submissions then it is accepted the tilted balance is engaged3. 8. It is a matter of record how Officers and Members of the City Council gave weight to the engagement of the tilted balance in the OR and resolutions made in 2019. The short point being that when it was considered that the tilted balance was engaged in respect of each of the subject appeals, the recommendation was to grant planning permission for each development.
