owners yield 15-20 Density multiplier yield 26 Final SHLAA yield 14 Site description The site forms part of the grounds and setting of the Scocles Court grade II listed building. Falling within the Minster built-up area boundary, it adjoins the Thistle Hill development (still under construction) to the west. The site is largely flat and previously used for an orchard. Towards the north west and south east corners are small ponds, although these fall outside the site boundary. The site is bounded by dense mature hedgerow and mature trees along the east and west edge with residential development toward the north and Scocles court to the south. Step 1 – policy constraints Should site progress to Step 2? Yes This site has no policy constraints (Ancient Woodland, AONB or designated wildlife sites). Step 2 – suitability Should site progress to Step 3? Yes The distance of the site to a primary school exceeds that stipulated in the methodology, although land at Thistle Hill has been allocated as a potential site for a primary school. However, it is unclear whether KCC will take up this option. This site is within the urban area as defined by the Local Plan, the site owner will be able to seek to demonstrate the suitability of development via a planning application (SW/12/1172). Step 3 – availability Should site progress to Step 4? Yes The Council resolved to grant planning permission for this development, subject to a legal Agreement, in December 2012. It is therefore considered to be available for development. Appendix 4. 5 Swale Borough Council draft Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment 2011-2012 Step 4 – achievability Should site progress to Step 3? Yes General advice is that the housing market should improve post 2012. The Council considers the site to be attractive for both purchasers and developers.

  • Southeastern Penalty Fare Scheme
    Southeastern Penalty Fare Scheme DMC2685 Version 1 2009 Penalty Fare Scheme 2009 1 Introduction 1.1 We, Southeastern, give notice under rule 3.2 of the SRA’s Penalty Fares Rules 2002 that we want to change our penalty fares scheme with effect from 30 April 2009. This document describes our penalty fare scheme for the purposes of rule 3(2)(b). 1.2 Southeastern currently operates a penalty fares scheme because, each year, our passengers make over 130 million journeys and even if only a small percentage of these passengers travel without paying, Southeastern will lose a considerable amount of money. Reducing the number of people who travel without a ticket is not only in the interests of Southeastern, but also in the interests of most fare-paying passengers. Few of us want to subsidise people who avoid paying, and the loss of income due to people travelling without tickets reduces the money available to invest in a better rail service. 1.3 As part of our revenue protection strategy, we have invested in the installation of additional automatic ticket gates, but it is not cost effective to install ticket gates at every station. We have therefore focussed the use of gates at our stations where large numbers of customers travel, especially at the London terminals. Conductors carry out on board ticket checks on longer distance journeys but suburban services operate without a conductor. Also, where station stops are frequent or where the trains are often busy it is not always possible to check every passenger’s ticket between every station.

October 2018 – March 2019 Hello, Welcome to the autumn- winter issue of On Board which arrives after a very busy few months here at Southeastern. In this issue we cover our new on-board entertainment system Motion – now available on a Southeastern train near you. We also take a closer look at the £30 million revamp of our train fleet, reveal our favourite hidden gems in Ashford and Margate, and get to grips with the story behind “leaves on the line”. Contents We know that it’s been a tricky year for rail passengers, and this was reflected in the Spring 2018 National Rail Passenger Survey results. We saw our score drop to 75 per cent from a record-breaking 81 per cent the previous year. We’re working hard to get our scores back to where they were and know that punctuality and reliability are what matter most to you. A total of 35 per cent of the survey’s respondents had been delayed – many during the severe winter weather in February and March, which caused significant damage to our trains.

    Southeastern Sustainability Report 2015/2016 Focused on partnership About us Southeastern operates one of the busiest and most complex networks in the country. Predominantly, we operate commuter routes into London with over 185 million passenger journeys made a year. We are unique in that last year we ran an average of 1,755 daily metro, mainline and high speed passenger services into more major terminals than any other National Rail operator. The Southeastern network has seen passenger numbers grow by around 40% since we commenced operating the franchise in 2006 and the success of the railway means that numbers continue to grow.

These are covered by the following sub-sections: Section 6.2 Existing committed employment allocations: Long-standing existing development areas, usually benefiting from an historic outline planning permission. Section 6.3 Proposed employment allocations: A mix of sites allocated for the first time and sites reviewed from the 2008 Local Plan. Section 6.4 Existing committed housing allocations: Long-standing existing development areas, usually benefiting from an historic outline planning permission. Section 6.5 Proposed housing allocations: A mix of sites allocated for the first time and sites reviewed from the 2008 Local Plan. Section 6.6 Mixed use allocations: Larger sites which contain other uses in addition to new housing. Section 6.7 Regeneration areas: Broad areas within which development is expected to come forward. Section 6.8 Neighbourhood Plans: As well as highlighting emerging neighbourhood plans, a guiding policy is provided for the most advanced of these at Faversham Creek. 6.2 Existing committed employment locations 6.2.1 Two major locations have formed part of the strategy for employment in Swale since the 1990s. Both benefit from an outline planning permission, with significant areas remaining to be developed. Ridham and Kemsley, Sittingbourne 6.2.2 Situated on the northern edge of Sittingbourne, this site is suitable for B2 and B8 uses of the Use Class Order, which often require large amounts of land, although planning permission for B1 and a limited range of A3 Classes have been additionally granted.
