Aylesbury Vale District Local Plan Supplementary Planning Guidance 4 May 2002 ii TRANSPORT CONTRIBUTIONS FROM NON-MDA DEVELOPMENTS AT AYLESBURY INTRODUCTION Contents 1. This Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) sets out the context for the Aylesbury Land Use / Transport Strategy (ALUTS) as defined within the Aylesbury Vale District Local Plan (AVDLP). It explains :- • the rationale behind the requirement for developer contributions • a description of the trip rate contribution • details of thresholds and exemptions • a flow chart to guide prospective applicants through the process • a methodology for making the calculations • details of how, where and when the contributions will be used. Background to this Consultation 2. Aylesbury is planned to grow by a third by 2011, to a total of 77,000 people. This growth will generate a substantially increased need for travel, which will directly impact on the town’s transport networks. To accommodate this growth in the most sustainable way, the District and County Councils have jointly worked on preparing the ALUT Strategy for the Aylesbury area (see Appendix 1 for map of Aylesbury Transport Strategy Area). 3. A fundamental principle of ALUTS, as set out in AVDLP, is that all new development pays a proportionate sum for the additional demands on the local transport system that it creates. As part of this, in May 2000 the Council approved SPG 1 on ‘Developer Contributions and Parking’. SPG 1 specifically dealt with developer transport contributions from brownfield1 and windfall2 sites within Aylesbury, that is all other development sites at Aylesbury apart from the Local Plan major development area (MDA) sites. 1 Land that has been previously developed 2 Housing that has not been specifically proposed in the Local Plan Aylesbury Vale District Local Plan Supplementary Planning Guidance 4 May 2002 1 4. In the light of 12 months experience of implementing SPG1, the Council resolved to make certain changes to improve clarity, make calculations simpler, introduce exemptions and thresholds and link contributions to specific transport infrastructure improvements. This SPG has been through a public consultation exercise as detailed in the Statement of Consultation and now supersedes those parts of the original SPG1 that dealt with developer contributions. Guidance on parking remains in a republished SPG1. 5. In the interim, Council resolved on the 14th November 2001 to approve this draft Guidance for development control purposes with immediate affect. THE ALUT STRATEGY Background to the Aylesbury Land Use/Transport Strategy (ALUTS) 6. Work on ALUTS began in 1994 in recognition of the fact that the majority of development in the District would take place in and around Aylesbury. The aim of ALUTS was to accommodate this growth in a sustainable way, meet transport needs and reduce reliance on the private car. 7. The underlying principle of ALUTS does not solely rely on improvements to facilities and infrastructure. It also requires that land use be planned in a sustainable way, i.e. maximising the use of previously developed sites first and then concentrating development at a minimum number of urban extensions. It seeks to minimise the amount of new road building and promotes public transport, walking and cycling schemes. These principles are embraced in the AVDLP. Aylesbury Vale District Local Plan (AVDLP) 8. AVDLP proposes to accommodate the majority of the District’s development requirements at four Major Development Areas (MDAs) around Aylesbury. These four urban extensions will be linked to the existing town by enhanced bus facilities, walking and cycling networks, funded by the MDA developers as required by policies AY.1 to AY.3 and AY.5. In line with the scale with these developments, the MDAs will be funding the majority of transport works required by AVDLP. 9. AVDLP also requires that developers of other non-MDA sites in the Aylesbury transport strategy area should also fund transport works arising from their development. This is on the basis that without these transport works the developments would be unacceptable because of their adverse impact on the local highway network and conditions for other users of the highway. Aylesbury Vale District Local Plan Supplementary Planning Guidance 4 May 2002 2 10. Policy AY.4 of AVDLP states that Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) will be published which details the methodology for calculating contributions and which guides the implementation of ALUTS. This SPG fulfils that requirement. AYLESBURY NON-MDA DEVELOPMENT TRANSPORT CONTRIBUTIONS Rationale 11. The Local Transport Plan (LTP) includes a programme of transport works required to meet the transport needs up to 2011. These needs are based on forecast transport growth, derived from the predicted growth in housing, employment, commerce and leisure as well as the increased demand of the

  • Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report 79
    Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report Figure 44: Morphology of Aylesbury 79 Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report Figure 45: period development 80 Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report 5 Historic Urban Zones 5.1 Introduction The process of characterising and analysing Buckinghamshire towns produces a large quantity of information at a ‘fine-grained scale’ e.g. the character of particular buildings, town plan forms and location of archaeological data. This multitude of information can be hard to assimilate. In order to distil this information into an understandable form, the project defines larger areas or Historic Urban Zones (HUZs) for each town; these zones provide a framework for summarising information spatially and in written form ( 81 Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report Figure 47). Each zone contains several sections including: A summary of the zone including reasons for the demarcation of the zone. An assessment of the known and potential archaeological interest for pre 20th century areas only. An assessment of existing built character. 5.2 Historic Urban Zones The creation of these zones begins with several discrete data sets including historical cartography and documentary sources; known archaeological work; buildings evidence (whether listed or not) and the modern urban character (Figure 46). From this, a picture can be drawn of the changes that have occurred to the built character within a given area over a given period. Discrete areas of the town that then show broad similarities can be grouped as one zone. After the survey results have been mapped into GIS the resulting data is analysed to discern any larger, distinctive patterns; principally build periods, urban types, styles or other distinctive attributes of buildings.

On this occasion, however, it is the archaeological component which dominates this study. The proposed development area covers a large plot of land and is located in close proximity to areas of high archaeological potential (central Aylesbury and Walton) There is also a possibility of encountering waterlogged deposits suitable for palaeo-environmental reconstruction. The site has been developed in its recent past but it is unclear at this stage how much those developments have impacted upon any below ground archaeology present. It is anticipated that further information from trial trenching (evaluation) will be required to determine the archaeological potential of the site in the first instance and, if necessary, in order to draw up an appropriate mitigation strategy.

  • Excavations at the Hamlet in Bedgrove, Aylesbury, 1964-66. Alison
    EXCAVATIONS AT THE HAMLET IN BEDGROVE, AYLESBURY 1964-6 ALISON MACDONALD AND CHRISTOPHER GOWING Excavation of a house platform and part of a hollow way yielded information on a medieval settlement. Bedgrove is situated about 1.5 miles from the centre ofAylesbury and lay, until 1958, in the parish of Weston Turville (Fig. 1). Three seasons of work from 1964-6 revealed an extensive area of flint cobbling, traces of three buildings and an oven. An earlier medieval phase of occupation was represented by a pit sealed by the cobbling, containing twelfth-century pottery. The majority of sherds from the layer of cobbles and above, however, can be dated from the late twelfth century to early fourteenth century. Documentary evidence confirms that this was the time when the settlement was flourishing. Pottery from the site also showed a Roman presence in the area, and indicated the Late Saxon origins of the settlement. Introduction hollow way (65 VIII) can be seen stretching The site of the hamlet (NGR SP 839127) was westwards from the main house platform. identified on the ground by earthworks and a scatter of stones in the area north of Bedgrove Subsequent to the extension of Bedgrove Farm (Fig. 2). A house platform, represented Housing Estate, pottery was found in a private by a rectangular mound measuring 6m x 8 .5m, garden south-west of the excavation (Museum was the most distinct feature to be seen, and it reference CAS 4435).
