  • Agenda Item 7 West of England Planning, Housing And
    Agenda Item 7 West of England Planning, Housing and Communities Board 27 June 2016 Joint Spatial Plan and Transport Study – Update on Consultation and Programme Purpose of Report 1. To present the results of the consultation on the Joint Spatial Plan (JSP) and Joint Transport Study (JTS) that was undertaken between 9th November 2015 and 29th January 2016, and update members on next steps in the work programme for both work packages. Background 2. The JSP provides the joint framework to ensure development requirements come forward across the West of England authorities’ area up to 2036 in a co-ordinated manner. This co-operation on strategic planning matters is complemented by the approach which has been taken on strategic transport issues. A review of future strategic transport proposals is being undertaken through the JTS, to both inform future development proposals and develop future strategic transport proposals up to 2036, with delivery of this work coordinated with the JSP programme. 3. The councils are proposing to publish a Draft JSP Options document by Autumn 2016. The first stage in the preparation of the JSP was the publication of the Issues and Options (I&O) document, which highlighted the scale of the development issues and set out a range of potential locational options and spatial scenarios to address these. This consultation also covered the first stage of the JTS, and views were asked from stakeholders and the public on their perception of current challenges on the West of England’s transport network, JTS objectives and views on a range of interventions to address these challenges.

PLANNING APPEAL BY BRISTOL AIRPORT LIMITED IN RESPECT OF NORTH SIDE ROAD, FELTON (APPEAL REFERENCE: 3259234) - SUBMISSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL STATEMENT ADDENDUM, PASSENGER TRAFFIC FORECAST, ECONOMIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM AND UPDATE TO THE PARKING DEMAND STUDY Response to Consultation on addendum to Environmental Statement and associated documents to Bristol Airport Planning Application 18/P/5118/OUT from Barrow Gurney Parish Council 1. Barrow Gurney Parish Council (BGPC) wishes to confirm its strong objection to the proposed expansion of Bristol Airport. 2. BGPC has previously lodged objections to proposals for, or related to the expansion of the airport: • In January 2019: in respect of application 18/P/5118/OUT • In November 2019: in respect of Additional Information supplied to application 18/P/ 5118/OUT • In October 2020: in respect of the Bristol Airport Ltd (Land at A38 and Downside Road) Compulsory Purchase Order 2020.

It is located roughly midway between the A370 (Bristol - Weston super Mare) to the west and A38 (Bristol - Airport - Taunton) to the east. It is rural in character, a diffuse village comprising 4 main component parts: • the village centre, the core of which was declared a Conservation Area in June 2018, predominantly linear in nature on either side of the B3130 (Barrow Street) which links the A370 and A38.

  • 1 Wraxall and Failand Parish Council Response to the West of England Joint Spatial Plan 2036 (JSP)
    Wraxall and Failand Parish Council Response to The West of England Joint Spatial Plan 2036 (JSP) - Technical Evidence Consultation, November 2018 1. Wraxall and Failand Parish Council (W&FPC) refers to submissions it made in January 2018 to the initial consultation on the JSP in which the main concerns highlighted were : economic growth was unrealistic and has driven up the housing numbers in the Strategic Development Locations (SDL), and the SDLs in North Somerset are not sustainable. 2. The Emerging Findings Transport Report WED 008 identifies proposed highway improvements and infrastructure for Nailsea and Backwell, at packages 1 – 4, designed to mitigate the development of the SDL in Nailsea. The total of these packages are estimated to cost £168m. However, it is unclear as to how this will be delivered in terms of precise location, route or technical detail. This is of concern, particularly as the JSP identifies that infrastructure is fundamental to mitigating the impact of the SDL in Nailsea. 3. It is recognised that transport infrastructure changes and mitigation would be necessary to deliver the proposed SDL in Nailsea . However it is considered that the proposals in Packages 1 – 4 referred to above do not deliver a fully integrated and viable transport solution. They do not address the fundamental traffic infrastructure problems to properly serve the SDL. The measures proposed seem to mainly move the problem around at certain pinch points. As such the proposed SDL in Nailsea is unsustainable. 4. The proposals do not adequately address: the important issues of traffic congestion across the Cumberland Basin. the issue of traffic associated with Bristol Airport.
