The Tandridge District Council Local Plan Strategic Highway Assessment is a strategic transport modelling study that aims to inform the decision making surrounding the suitability of potential development sites. It should be noted that the scenarios tested and analysed for this report were generated from statistics that at the time were still being identified from the council’s Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (HELAA) and may not reflect the final findings of the HELAA. This document sets out details of the transport model (SINTRAM), the forecasting methodology, as well as the results and analysis of the traffic impacts of the potential development sites. The main objectives were to: calculate the number and distribution of vehicle trips based on the quantum and locations of additional commercial and residential development in various growth scenarios from the data provided by Tandridge District Council; forecast the traffic impacts of various development scenarios; act as a starting point for identifying the locations that may require further investigation regarding traffic impacts; and report the main traffic impacts. This report does not go onto identify and recommend potential mitigation. This would need to be done at a later stage, but in advance of any Examination in Public. However, this report would act as a useful starting point for undertaking this work. A future year do-minimum reference and five do-something scenarios were tested: 2031 do-minimum scenario 1 includes all commercial and residential development sites that have received planning permission within the district of Tandridge since 2009; 2031 do-something scenario 2a contains all of the sites in scenario 1 with the addition of all the most likely Local Plan development sites; 2031 do-something scenario 2b is the same as scenario 2a, but the Local Plan development sites are assumed to be of higher density; 2031 do-something scenario 3 contains all of the sites in scenario 2a with additional commercial development and additional residential development focused on Caterham (including Caterham hill and Caterham Valley), Whyteleafe, Warlingham Oxted (including Limpsfield), Smallfield, Lingfield and Godstone; 2031 do-something scenario 4 contains all of the sites in scenario 2a with additional commercial development (as in scenario 3) and additional residential development focused on Bletchingley, Woldingham, South Nutfield, Dormansland, South Godstone, Tatsfield, Blindley Heath, Limpsfield Chart, Nutfield, Felbridge, Old Oxted; and 2031 do-something scenario 5 contains all of the sites in scenario 2a with additional commercial development (as in scenarios 3 and 4) and the additional residential development that is also in scenarios 3 and 4. Of the five do-something scenarios, scenario 2b is projected to generate the smallest traffic impacts on the highway network in Tandridge. Although this scenario represents an Issue No. 03 Page 4 Document No. 53613TS37 / 01 Tandridge District Council Local Plan Strategic Highway Assessment Report intensification of the development proposed in Scenario 2a (an additional 175 dwellings and the same amount of commercial development), the proposed residential development consists of a greater number of flats. However, the total number of new vehicle trips generated in scenario 2b is lower than in scenario 2a because the trip rate associated with flats is lower when compared with that for houses. Scenarios 2a and 2b are forecast to generate similar impacts on the district’s highway network when considering general network traffic statistics. Scenario 4 is also forecast to have relatively moderate effects on the network. In all of these scenarios, the impacts are most marked in the north of the district, including Oxted and Hurst Green, Godstone, Caterham and Warlingham. Scenarios 3 and 5 are forecast to have the greatest impacts, both in the south and north of the district, including Smallfield, Caterham. In some locations effects are expected to be experienced some distance from proposed development locations reflecting the potential cumulative impacts on existing roads and junctions. This includes some impacts across the boundary, especially to in the north east and in the south and south-west of the district. There are forecast to be limited numbers of trips added to the motorway network, although re-routing as a result of additional trips on the network does affect motorway flows. However, parts of the motorway network in the area are forecast to be either approaching or already operating overcapacity by 2031 so any additional trips may have more of a significant effect. Issue No. 03 Page 5 Document No. 53613TS37 / 01 Tandridge District Council Local Plan Strategic Highway Assessment Report 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Overview 1.1.1 Tandridge District Council is currently in the process of developing their Local Plan to ensure future growth is facilitated within the district. To assist with the review of the district’s development scenarios Surrey County Council has been commissioned by the district council to undertake highway modelling to aid the evidence base of their Local Plan. The Tandridge District Council Local Plan Strategic Highway Assessment is a strategic transport modelling study that aims to inform the decision making surrounding the suitability of development sites which have been identified. 1.1.2 The assessment made use of Surrey County Council’s strategic transport model, SINTRAM. 1.1.3 This document sets out details of the transport model, the forecasting methodology, as well as the results and analysis of the traffic impacts of the potential development sites. 1.1.4 This study does not consider aspects such as: accessibility to facilities and services by either car or non-car modes from the potential development sites; the impact on existing public transport services such as passenger over- crowding and possible delays to services as a result of increased traffic congestion; what opportunities there might be for reducing the number of car trips to and from the potential new developments by the enhancement of sustainable transport facilities and services; what highway mitigation might be required to address the identified impacts. Accessibility issues and impacts on public transport services might have to be considered in separate pieces of work. The consideration of increasing sustainable travel and identifying highway mitigation would need to be done at a later stage, potentially to support a Regulation 19 submission to the Secretary of State and certainly in advance of any Examination in Public. However, this report acts as a useful starting point for undertaking such work. 1.2 Objectives 1.2.1 The purpose of this study was to evaluate the highway impacts of the developments contained within the forecast scenarios as developed by Tandridge District Council. 1.2.2 The main objectives of the study were to: calculate the number and distribution of vehicle trips based on the quantum and locations of additional commercial and residential development in various growth scenarios from the data provided by Tandridge District Council; forecast the traffic impacts of various development scenarios; act as a starting point for identifying the locations that may require further investigation regarding traffic impacts; and report the main traffic impacts. Issue No. 03 Page 6 Document No. 53613TS37 / 01 Tandridge District Council Local Plan Strategic Highway Assessment Report 2 STRATEGIC TRANSPORT MODEL 2.1 Model and Scope 2.1.1 Surrey County Council’s strategic transport model, SINTRAM version 6 (SINTRAM6_0_22_Tandridge_040915) was used for the assessment, with OmniTRANS modelling program, version 6.0.22. 2.1.2 SINTRAM is a strategic highway model for the county of Surrey. The model encapsulates the road network of Surrey and surrounding local authorities. Figure 2.1 presents the entire model area. Figure 2.1: Model extent 2.1.3 All motorways, A and B roads, together with most local roads are represented within SINTRAM. Where traffic junctions and traffic signals have a significant effect in terms of delay or route choice, details of their layout and/or timing of the signals have been included in the model.

We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Lake, woodland, hills, rocks, country town In Brief This is an easy walk round Weir Wood Lake in East and West Sussex, visiting the picturesque small town of Forest Row. The walk begins at the 24-hour car park in Forest Row , postcode RH18 5DY . An alternative start is the Weir Wood Nature Reserve car park on the south shore, approximate postcode RH19 4JW , grid ref TQ 382 342. For more details see at the end of this text ( Getting There ). This is an easy walk with long dry stretches. However, other parts may suffer unpredictably from waterlogging on certain days (this area is a catchment for the reservoir) so it is advisable to take into account recent weather conditions and to wear good ankle boots. This walk is not nettle free, so bare legs are a no-no. One or two of the stiles are not dog-friendly and will cause a problem for a large dog if he cannot be picked up.

I am writing to object to the proposal/draft recommendation of the Boundary Commission for East Sussex County and Wealden District Electoral Reviews. I live in Isfield village which is greatly affected by the proposals. Main points of objection: 1) I understand that that one of the principles guiding the Boundary Commission changes, supported by East Sussex County Council and Wealden District Council, is that wards “should reflect the interests and identities of local communities”. Isfield and Little Horsted have long been closely linked parishes. Indeed, given the particular circumstance where Little Horsted is represented by a Parish Meeting, rather than a Parish Council, it has frequently been the case that residents of Little Horsted have been elected members of Isfield Parish Council. When action was needed to speed the development of a broadband network within the villages, both bodies acted together to achieve their requirements.

  • Local Resident's Submissions to the Wealden District Council Electoral
    Local resident’s submissions to the Wealden District Council electoral review This PDF document contains submissions from local residents Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. Boundary Commission Electoral Review – Draft Recommendations for Wealden Response to Draft Recommendation to Pevensey & Westham Ward Summary The Commission’s draft recommendation for creating three wards from the current Pevensey & Westham ward (P & W ward) by including the electorate from settlements to the north and east but shedding electorate from Stone Cross to Polegate Central, is not sound because: The area electorate figures used in the 2021 electorate forecast for each area are seriously flawed. The inclusion of Hooe and Flowers Green within the new wards fails the test of community identity and interest Splitting Stone Cross into two wards (and two electoral divisions) with a large part of the settlement in the Polegate Central ward also fails the community identity and interest test. The 2021 electorate errors are addressed below by incorporating known development in each of the areas forming the ward. Based on these corrected figures, alternative proposals for the P & W ward are considered in this paper including: The preferred option of retaining the existing ward boundary and three ward councillors A non-preferred option of adding Hooe to the preferred option and maintaining three councillors. A non-preferred option of creating three wards comprising: Pevensey North and Pevensey Bay East & West Westham, Hankham and North Stone Cross South Stone Cross All three options have effects on neighbouring wards and these effects are discussed below. The necessary revisions to the 2021 electorate, with major growth at Stone Cross and minimal elsewhere, may have an impact on the draft recommendation for changes to Westham Parish.
