The purpose of the working draft ES is to provide the public and other stakeholders with an opportunity to review and comment on preliminary environmental information for Phase 2b of HS2, which is based on a stage in the ongoing design development and environmental assessment process. Nothing included at this stage is intended to limit the form of the final scheme that will be presented in the hybrid Bill and formal ES in light of further scheme development and the ongoing discussions with stakeholders such as Transport for the North and Midlands Connect.

It comprises: Landowner deposit under S.15A(1) of the Commons Act 2006 By depositing a statement, landowners can prevent their land being registered as a Town or Village Green, provided they make the deposit before there has been 20 years recreational use of the land as of right. A new statement must be deposited within 20 years. Landowner deposit under S.31(6) of the Highways Act 1980 Highway statements and highway declarations allow landowners to prevent their land being recorded as a highway on the definitive map on the basis of presumed dedication (usually 20 years uninterrupted use).

  • East Midlands
    Liberal Democrat submission for BCE 3rd consultation East Midlands Submission to the Boundary Commission for England third period of consultation: East Midlands Summary There is a factual error in the Commission’s report concerning the Liberal Democrat counter-proposals in the Leicestershire / Northamptonshire / Nottinghamshire / Rutland sub-region. We would, therefore, ask the Commission to reconsider the scheme we put forward. We welcome the change the Commission has made to its proposal for Mansfield. We welcome the fact that the Commission has kept to its original proposals in Lincolnshire, much of Derbyshire and Derby, and in Northampton. We consider that the changes that the Commission has made to four constituencies in Derbyshire, affecting the disposition of three wards, are finely balanced judgement calls with which we are content to accept the Commission’s view. The change that the Commission has made to the Kettering and Wellingborough constituencies would not have needed to be considered if it had agreed to our proposal for an unchanged Wellingborough seat. The Commission’s proposal to move the Burton Joyce and Stoke Bardolph ward into its proposed Sherwood constituency means that it is now proposing three Nottinghamshire constituencies (Bassetlaw, Broxtowe, Sherwood) which contain a ward which is inaccessible from the rest of the seat. We are not in agreement with the Commission’s failure to comply with the spirit of the legislation or the letter of its own guidelines in respect of these three proposed constituencies. We are not in agreement with the Commission’s failure to respect the boundaries of the City of Nottingham to the extent of proposing three constituencies that cross the Unitary Authority boundary.

Harrier Park at Hucknall is expected to support up to 1500 new jobs and attract a new generation of businesses on a site which extends to 70 acres. A long-term project led by Muse Developments, it will see up to 90,000 square metres of employment space and hundreds of new homes built on surplus land alongside the Rolls-Royce Aerospace supply chain plant off atnallW Road. Whilst residential development is already underway, large-scale industrial development hinges on new roads which will enable vehicle access to and from the site on to the Hucknall by-pass through a new access road which has been jointly funded by a £7m investment by Nottinghamshire County Council and Rolls-Royce. Councillor Kay Cutts, leader of Nottinghamshire County Council, was among those present at the formal opening of the new road which leads into the site from the junction.
