The Callendar Farm Phase 1 site is located directly to the south-east of Phase 2 and was granted planning permission in March 2016 for up to 150 dwellings (outline application number 032578). 1.2.2 The Callendar Farm Phase 2 development proposals are for: Up to 850 dwellings – a mixture of sizes and types including affordable housing; New primary school (reserving land for two-form entry); Community Hub/Local Centre; Open Space for both active and passive recreation; and Retention and enhancement of existing boundary trees and hedgerows. 1.3 Travel Plan Purpose 1.3.1 This Travel Plan sets out the various travel-related measures and strategies that will be implemented to encourage residents of the site to consider the use of a range of travel modes. The key objectives of the Travel Plan are to: Deliver a long-term and sustained commitment to changing and widening travel choice; Address the access needs of residents by enabling walking, cycling, public transport and car sharing; Promote healthy lifestyles and raise awareness about the benefits of utilising sustainable travel opportunities; and Build upon good urban design principles that promote the permeability of development, encouraging walking and cycling as the first choice for local trips. Callendar Farm Phase 2, Nuneaton Callendar Farm Ltd Travel Plan 1.3.2 This travel plan details the residential travel plan initiatives. It is understood that the school and commercial travel plans will be covered by a planning condition and therefore do not feature in this report. 1.4 Structure of Report 1.4.1 Following this chapter, the report is structured as follows: Chapter 2: Policy and Guidance; Chapter 3: Baseline Transport Conditions; Chapter 4: Development Proposals; Chapter 5: Travel Plan Management and Coordination; Chapter 6: Residential Travel Plan Initiatives; Chapter 7: Commercial Travel Plan Initiatives; Chapter 8: Targets, Review and Monitoring; and Chapter 9: Action Plan Callendar Farm Ltd Callendar Farm Phase 2, Nuneaton Travel Plan 2 Policy and Guidance 2.1 National Planning Policy Framework (March 2012) 2.1.1 In March 2012, the Government published the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). Two of the core planning principles held in the NPPF as set out in paragraph 17, include actively managing “patterns of growth to make the fullest possible use of public transport, walking and cycling, and focus significant development in locations which are or can be made sustainable” and to “take account of and support local strategies to improve health, social and cultural wellbeing for all, and deliver sufficient community and cultural facilities and services to meet local needs.” 2.1.2 Additionally, in promoting sustainable transport, paragraph 31 states that “Local authorities should work with neighbouring authorities and transport providers to develop strategies for the provision of viable infrastructure necessary to support sustainable development” and also that “All developments that generate significant amounts of movement should be supported by a Transport Statement or Transport Assessment. Plans and decisions should take account of whether: The opportunities for sustainable transport modes have been taken up depending on the nature and location of the site, to reduce the need for major transport infrastructure; Safe and suitable access to the site can be achieved for all people; and Improvements can be undertaken within the transport network that cost effectively limit the significant impacts of the development. Development should only be prevented or refused on transport grounds where the residual cumulative impacts of development are severe.” 2.1.3 Paragraph 36 goes on to state that “A key tool to facilitate this will be a Travel Plan. All developments which generate significant amounts of movement should be required to provide a Travel Plan.” 2.1.4 In reinforcing the principle of supporting sustainable development, paragraph 197 states that “In assessing and determining development proposals, local planning authorities should apply the presumption in favour of sustainable development.” 2.1.5 The proposed development will support the sustainable objectives set out in the NPPF; details of which are provided in this Travel Plan. 2.2 Planning Practice Guidance 2014 (PPG 2014) 2.2.1 PPG 2014 provides information on: When a Travel Plan is required; Callendar Farm Phase 2, Nuneaton Callendar Farm Ltd Travel Plan How the need for and scope of a Travel Plan is established; What information should be included in Travel Plans; and How Travel Plans can be monitored. 2.2.2 PPG 2014 states that “Travel Plans should identify the specific required outcomes, targets and measures, and set out clear future monitoring and management arrangements all of which should be proportionate. They should also consider what additional measures may be required to offset unacceptable impacts if the targets should not be met. Travel Plans should set explicit outcomes rather than just identify processes to be followed (such as encouraging active travel or supporting the use of low emission vehicles). They should address all journeys resulting from a proposed development by anyone who may need to visit or stay and they should seek to fit in with wider strategies for transport in the area.” 2.2.3 They should evaluate and consider: Benchmark travel data including trip generation databases; Information concerning the nature of the proposed development and the forecast level of trips by all modes of transport likely to be associated with the development; Relevant information about existing travel habits in the surrounding area; Proposals to reduce the need for travel to and from the site via all modes of transport; and Provision of improved public transport services. 2.2.4 With regard to monitoring, PPG 2014 states that: “The length of time over which monitoring will occur and the frequency will depend on the nature and scale of the development and should be agreed as part of the Travel Plan with the developer or qualifying body for neighbourhood planning. Who has responsibility for monitoring compliance should be clear. Monitoring requirements should only cease when there is sufficient evidence for all parties to be sure that the travel patterns of the development are in line with the objectives of the Travel Plan. This includes meeting the agreed targets over a consistent period of time. At this point the Travel Plan would become a voluntary initiative.” 2.3 Warwickshire Local Transport Plan 2011-2026 2.3.1 The 2011-2026 Warwickshire Local Transport Plan is the third incarnation of the document, written by Warwickshire Country Council and sets out the County’s transport strategy and policies for the Callendar Farm Ltd Callendar Farm Phase 2, Nuneaton Travel Plan fifteen-year period. It has been produced in accordance with the Local Transport Plan Guidance issued by the Department for Transport in 2009. 2.3.2 The overall objectives given in the Local Transport Plan are as follows: “To promote

  • Summer 2017 Issue 2
    Summer 2017 Issue 2 Escape 20th Birthday Celebrations July marked a very special time for the charity. Escape originated from two voluntary organisations which were both founded in 1997 by Artistic Directors Robin Wade and Karen Williams. Robin established the Escape project in her front room, supporting adults through weekly ceramic workshops and Karen Williams established Community Art in Action: creative workshops supporting adults with learning disabilities. Both of these groups still flourish today,Stratford Escape every Wednesday and Paper Moon every Tuesday. The 20th Birthday celebration resulted in a three day exhibition involving Escape work from across all the project venues and activities. It was attended by over 2000 people and was a great opportunity to bring the Escape family of staff, volunteers and participants all together. Leading up to the celebrations, Escape ran a competition to ‘Name The Steer’ the fantastic sculpture created by Rachel Higgins which now resides outside the Slaughterhouse. The winning entry was ‘Metallic Moo’ won by Oliver Hughes from The Willows Primary School. Robin Wade Retirement At this time we say a fond farewell to Robin, who after 20 years of passion and dedication is now retiring. Robin speaks fondly about Escape: “Many changes have taken place for Escape over the past twenty years and so many creative talents have been realised. From small beginnings Escape has grown through the decades and we have all had an extraordinary journey. Timing has been everything; receiving funding through Big Lottery, the Town Trust Challenge and the Arts Council gave us the opportunity to build on all our previous work within the community and allow as many people as possible to share in what we do.
