PLANNING REF : 203535 PROPERTY ADDRESS : 4 Mayfields PLANNING REF : 203535 PROPERTY ADDRESS : 4 Mayfields : Sindlesham, Wokingham, Berkshire : RG41 5BY SUBMITTED BY : Councillor Paul Fishwick DATE SUBMITTED : 25/01/2021 COMMENTS: Planning Application 203535 &65533; Western Gateway Planning Application Description: Full planning application for works at the junction of the A321 Finchampstead Road and Molly Millars Lane comprising replacement of the existing threearm minirou ndabout with a larger roundabout; demolition of Nos 81 and 8385 Finchampstead Road; and associated landscaping and changes to the pedestrian crossing environment. Removal of the existing lightcontrolled crossing on the A321 Finchampstead Road The exis ting lightcontrolled pedestrian crossing has been in this location for over 25 years and is heavily used by local people. The February 2020 Western Gateway Public consultation indicated that this facility would be replaced by a toucan crossing and featur es on the &65533;artists impression photo&65533; on the first page of the exhibition boards Western Gateway Wokingham Borough Council The planning application shows that this essential crossing has been removed and replaced with an uncontroll ed crossing. However, within the Design and Access statement paragraph 5.3 it states, &65533;the roundabout enhancement scheme will fundamentally ensure pedestrian and cyclist facilities are maintained.&65533; This clearly is untrue, as the remo val of the lightcontrolled crossing reduces safety on this already busy and hazardous &65533;A&65533; class road, which will become even busier when the Southern Distribution Road opens. Pedestrians will not be able to cross the road within &am p;65533;safe gaps&65533; in the traffic and take risks potentially resulting in personal injury accidents. The Road Safety Audit highlights this very point and states as follows &65533;the drawings provided show the removal of the existing sign alised crossing on Finchampstead Road (South) and replacing with uncontrolled crossings via the splitter island for the proposed roundabout. Several pedestrians were observed using the crossing at the time of the site visit and removing this facility may increase the likelihood of a pedestrianvehicle collision if pedestrians have to use the uncontrolled crossing instead.&65533; The Design and Access statement paragraph 4.4 states &65533;there is not a pedestriancyclist desire line to cross Fin champstead Road South of the roundabout.&65533; This again is simply not true, as the existing lightcontrolled crossing that has operated at that location for over 25 years is heavily used. The Design and Access statement paragraph 4.4. also states &65533;constraints on space with vehicle accesses and lack of available width on the west footway to provide a crossing in line with design standards.&65533; Yet, the figure 4 in the same document indicates land taken from the front garden of 8 9 Finchampstead Road to accommodate the new crossing. Wokingham Borough Council&65533;s Climate Emergency Plan modal shift target indicates that a quadrupling in walking and cycling is required to achieve CO2 reduction targets in the next 10 years. T his development fails to assist walking and cycling. I therefore object to this planning application due to the removal of this important Active Travel (walking and cycling) facility. Shared use facilities The Design Access Statement paragraph 4.4 stat es that in design standard terms, the final scheme has been designed in accordance with the guidance Cycle Infrastructure Design Local Transport Note 120 (LTN 120). In paragraph 10 of the LTN120 it states, &65533;New roundabouts on allpurpose roa ds should be provided with cycle facilities as recommended in this guidance, unless there are clearlydefined and suitable alternative routes&65533;. Also, in paragraph 14 it states, &65533;Appropriate cycle facilities should be provided within all new and improved highways in accordance with the guidance contained in this document, regardless of whether the scheme is on a designated cycle route, unless there are clearlydefined and suitable alternatives.&65533; This location is in an urban area close to the town centre and identified in the draft Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP) as a designated walking and cycling route. The design in not in accordance with this latest guidance. Provision for walking and cycling is re quired on each side of the roundabout, to connect into existing and future infrastructure, and toucan crossings must be provided on each approach, not just two out of the three. I therefore object to this planning application as it has not been designed t o the latest guidance LTN 120. Wokingham Borough Council Core Policy CP1 &65533; Sustainable Development; CP2 &65533; Inclusive Communities; CP6 &65533; Managing Travel Demand; Wokingham Borough Council have a set of Core Policies and the following are relevant for this development. CP1 (Sustainable Development), it states that &65533;the development must demonstrate how they support opportunities for reducing the need to travel, particularly by private car in line with CP6 (Manag ing Travel Demand). CP2 (Inclusive Communities) states, &65533;sustainably meeting the needs of young people includes ensuring that children of primary school age have access to a school within walking or cycling distance of their home (34km) along a safe route.&65533; CP6 (Managing Travel Demand) states, &65533;that planning permission will be granted for schemes that: a) Provide for sustainable forms of transport to allow choice; b) Are located where there are or will be at the time of development choices in the mode of transport available and which minimise the distance people need to travel; c) Improve the existing infrastructure network, including road, rail and public transport, enhance facilities for pedestrians and cyclists, incl uding provision for those with reduced mobility, and other users; e) Mitigate any adverse effects upon the local and strategic transport network that arise from the development proposed; f) Enhance road safety; g) Do not cause highway problems or lead to traffic related environmental problems. For CP6 (a to f) The development has failed in this regard as highlighted above in not providing a lightcontrolled crossing on the A321 Finchampstead Road southern arm and has also not demonstrated the use of th e latest design principles LTN 120. It has introduced an uncontrolled crossing facility which is detrimental to highway users and highlighted in the Road Safety Audit &65533;may increase the likelihood of a pedestrianvehicle collision&65533;. No attempt has been made to widen the footways on either side of the A321 Finchampstead Road (South approach) to current design standard principles within the development and the widened shared footway comes to a sudden end on the corner of 89 Finchampste ad Road. This sudden change in the footway width has been identified as an issue and raised in the Road Safety Audit (Section 5 Analysis) where it states &65533;that one Departure from Standard has been identified and is due to be submitted for appro val for a reduced visibility on approach to southern entry to CD 116 para. 3.39.&65533; This poor visibility has come about as the revised design and submitted in this application no longer uses part of the front garden of 89 Finchampstead Road, wher e previously it did (see figure 4 Design and Access Statement and the Public Consultation February 2020). With reference to CP6 (g) the Air Quality Report fails to consider the harmful impact of PM2.5. The Borough Council acknowledge that there is clear e vidence that PM2.5 has a significant impact on human health, including premature mortality, allergic reactions, and cardiovascular diseases and makes this statement in its Air Quality Annual Status Report to Defra, but it does monitor any sites within the Borough, reliant on modelled data and not actual &65533;live&65533; on site information. The development .

    From: Sent: 27 March 2020 11:36 To: [email protected] Subject: GE202003362 - ONR resposne to Wokingham Borough Council Local plan Update Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Completed Dear Sir/Madam, In response to your emails dated 3 February and 18 March regarding the 2020 Wokingham Borough Local Plan Update consultation, please find below ONR’s response, which is provided in line with our Land Use Planning policy published here http://www.onr.org.uk/land-use-planning.htm. Since ONR responded to the previous draft Local Plan Update consultation on 21 January 2019 (see email below) the proposed development locations included in the draft local plan have significantly changed. Additionally, the Detailed Emergency Planning Zone (DEPZ) for the AWE Burghfield site has been re-determined by West Berkshire District Council under the Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations (REPPIR) 2019 resulting in a larger DEPZ. ONR’s current position remains that we would be likely to object to: • developments within the DEPZ, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. • large scale developments within the circular 5km Outer Consultation Zone (OCZ), which extends beyond the DEPZ from grid reference SU684680, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. ONR has previously responded regarding the two development locations below which are included in both the 2018/19 Local Plan Update consultation and the 2020 Local Plan Update consultation: 1.

  • The Wokingham Society Barkham Below the Ground
    The Wokingham Society Barkham Below the Ground At an Open Meeting in Wokingham Town Hall on Wednesday March 15th Janet Firth, co- author of Barkham: A History, and Chairman of the Berkshire Archaeology Research Group, gave an interesting and informative presentation to Society members and other residents on the results of excavation and field walking in the parish of Barkham. Mrs Firth had studied for a degree in Archaeology at the University of Reading and she had become actively involved in 1989 with the Berkshire Archaeological survey, concentrating on the Parish of Barkham. Since she is also a historian, she is interested in all aspects of life in the parish and she has recorded the presence of veteran trees and buildings of notable historical interest, including the moated fifteenth century Sparks Farm and Barkham Manor. Her main contribution to the ongoing survey has been in field walking and making discoveries of objects from many different periods in the history of Barkham, a parish for which she obviously has great affection. She takes delight in the fact that Barkham is a heavily wooded parish with so many distinctive natural features within its boundaries. In the course of her survey she has found veteran oak trees of very large girth, one of them possibly over 500 years old, and an avenue of lime trees dating from 1885, planted for Sir John Walter and intended to link Barkham with Bearwood House. Since many of the audience were not au fait with the field walking, she explained in detail how archaeologists proceed. They start by identifying a field which has been harrowed, seeded and manured and then they create a map with a grid divided into units 10x10 metres square.

It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas 1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion 3. The major source of air quality pollutants in Wokingham Borough is road transport, and the main pollutant of concern is nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) Three Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) have been declared for exceedances of the Annual Mean NO 2 Objective. These are located in Wokingham Town Centre, Twyford Village Centre Crossroads and along, and 60m either side of, the M4 throughout the whole of the borough ( https://uk-air.defra.gov.uk/aqma/local-authorities?la_id=318 ).
