Agenda Item 6B 11 Agenda Item 6b LEICESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL HIGHWAYS FORUM FOR MELTON 12TH JULY 2016 CHAIRMAN’S UPDATE REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF ENVIRONMENT AND TRANSPORT T5 Street Lighting Transformation Project 2016/17 1. Leicestershire Highways is upgrading the County Councils street lighting stock to LEDs, in order to make substantial savings in energy, carbon and maintenance costs. Leicestershire County Council will be carrying out over 68,000 street light replacements across the county and are programmed to complete all installations within the next 3 years. Initially we are concentrating on the low level street lights (5 & 6m columns) which are mainly in residential areas with the high level installations (6m & above) due to commence from October this year. 2. The first low level installations were successfully carried out in Shepshed, as programmed in March this year, before a full roll-out of four installation teams started work in Loughborough, Hugglescote and Whitwick throughout April and into May. The project is progressing well and is on programme both in time and budget. 3. Details of the full construction programme for the project are being prepared in a suitable format to share with Members and residents and we anticipate this information will be available by the end of June. 4. The table below provides the implementation programme to the end of the current financial year. 2016 May Whitwick, Loughborough, Coalville June Coalville cont., Oadby & Wigston July Ravenstone, Packington, Coleorton, Ellistown, Swannington, Ibstock, Anstey, Rothley August Thurmaston, Syston, Wanlip, Birstall, Queniborough, Rearsby, East Goscote, Cossington, Seagrave September Sileby, Mountsorrel, Barrow on Soar, Quorn, Ratby, Groby October Groby, Glenfield, Markfield, Charley, Newtown Linford, Thurcaston & Cropston, Woodhouse, Loughborough November Loughborough, Newbold Verdon, Stanton under Bardon, Bagworth & Thornton, Desford, Kirby Muxloe, LFE, Chilcote, Appleby Magna, Heather, Swepstone, Snarestone, Normanton, Breedon on the Hill, Worthington, Osgathorpe, Belton & 12 Staunton Harold December Thurlaston, Peckleton, Ashby de la Zouch, Hinckley 2017 January Hinckley cont., Oakthorpe & Donisthorpe, Barlestone, Osbastone, Cadeby February Market Bosworth, Measham, Ashby Woulds, Burbage, Earl Shilton March Barwell, Witherley, Sheepy, Stoke Golding, Higham on the Hill, Sapcote, Stoney Stanton, Aston Flamville, Elmesthorpe, Croft, Broughton Astley 5. For note, when the lights are first installed they will burn all night at 100% brightness until they pick up their dimming programme, usually within a couple days. The lights then dim to 70% brightness and any part-night lights will switch off at midnight until 05:30 (GMT) as they currently do.

  • Burbage Parish Council's Response to the Blaby Local Plan
    Burbage Millennium Hall Hazel Thomasson Britannia Road Principal Officer Burbage www.burbage-council.co.uk Leicestershire LE10 2HF Tel: 01455 637533 by email to [email protected] 12th March 2021 Burbage Parish Council’s Response to the Blaby Local Plan We welcome this opportunity to provide further comments on the revised Blaby Local Plan which is intended to run until 2029 once adopted. Blaby District Council borders Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council on a broadly West/East basis with Burbage very much at this interface. The border between the two authorities runs through low density population areas which are mainly farmland in nature. The two authorities are also intersected by the M69 Coventry-Leicester motorway, the motorway being predominately inside the Blaby area, which leaves an annexed part of the Blaby District on the western side of the motorway, with Elmesthorpe being the only settlement of Blaby of this annexed part of the district. Within Hinckley and Bosworth the settlements of Hinckley and Burbage are separated by the Local Plan from Barwell and Earl Shilton by a Green Wedge policy of the current local plan adopted by the Borough. This wish by residents to maintain a green spatial element between these settlements is very strong and fully supported by Burbage Parish Council. Although these are now predominately urban settlements, the rural connection and feel is extremely important to residents. On the western (Hinckley side) of the map (see Figure 1) there is also a spatial separation of these settlements (Hinckley, Burbage, Barwell and Earl Shilton) from the eastern settlements within Blaby (Elmesthorpe, Stoney Stanton, Sapcote, Aston Flamville and Sharnford).
