Winterton Ltd, in respect of a planning application for 7 holiday lets, cycle storage, parking & amenity space on the site of the former Isolation Hospital and Toll House in Syston, Leicestershire. 1.2 The application site is approximately 7.5km to the north of Leicester City Centre. The site location is shown in the context of the surrounding area within Figure 1.1. Figure 1.1: Site Location Plan Site Location 1.3 An existing site access is provided from Meadow Lane, which will be upgraded as part of the development proposals. The proposed site layout plan is included as Appendix A. 1.4 This report has been prepared in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) for England. The structure of the report is presented as follows: • Section 2.0 establishes the site location, describing the local area, local highway network and providing an analysis of recent personal injury accident records. 1 BSP Consulting MAM/17-0473 Former Isolation Hospital & Toll House, Meadow Lane, Syston Transport Statement • Section 3.0 describes the site and outlines the development proposals, including the site access arrangements. • Sections 4.0 sets out the existing sustainable travel facilities available to access the site, analysing the site’s current level of accessibility and sustainability. • Section 5.0 quantifies the existing and proposed levels of trip generation associated with the site. • Section 6.0 assesses the impact of the development proposals on the local highway network. • Section 7.0 summarises the key findings of the report, highlighting the transport implications of the proposals. 2 BSP Consulting MAM/17-0473 Former Isolation Hospital & Toll House, Meadow Lane, Syston Transport Statement 2.0 Local Context Local Area 2.1 The application site location is shown in the context of its immediate surrounds, within Figure 2.1. Figure 2.1: Local Area Plan A46 Meadow Lane Glebe Way Proposed Site A607 2.2 As can be seen within Figure 2.1, the site is situated in a rural area to the north-west of the built-up area of Syston. The River Wreake runs along the northern boundary of the site whilst the Grand Union Canal runs along the western boundary. A marina is situated on the opposite side of the canal whilst agricultural uses lie to the north, east and south. 3 BSP Consulting MAM/17-0473 Former Isolation Hospital & Toll House, Meadow Lane, Syston Transport Statement Local Highway Network Meadow Lane 2.3 Meadow Lane is a local access road which provides a route between Glebe Way (to the east) and Wanlip Sailing Club (to the west). The lane also provides access to other commercial land uses (Danaher and Walsh, Calvers garage, Harris boat yard and moorings let out by the Canal and River Trust). 2.4 Meadow Lane provides a metalled road surface and is subject to a speed limit of 30mph. Meadow Lane provides a carriageway width ranging between approximately 3m and 7m. The majority of the lane does not provide street lighting or footways, however, footways are provided along both side of the carriageway as Meadow Lane travels over bridges over the A46 and the Grand Union Canal. 2.5 Meadow Lane forms a priority controlled T-junction with Glebe Way. The junction provides a wide mouth, tapered to provide sufficient geometry to enable HGVs to merge into the southbound flow along Glebe Way. Glebe Way 2.6 Glebe Way is a distributor road that forms part of a loop around the residential estate situated to the south of the road. Glebe Way provides a link west, towards the Hobby Horse Roundabout with the A46 and A607, and on to Wanlip Way, and east to Fosse Way. 2.7 Glebe Way is subject to a speed limit of 30mph and provides a carriageway width of 7m or more as it travels within the vicinity of the junction with Meadow Lane. Street lighting is provided along the length of the road and a footway is provided along the southern side of the carriageway. Personal Injury Accident Records 2.8 Personal Injury Accident (PIA) records for the latest available 5-year period (up to June 2017) have been obtained from Crashmap. The records indicate that no PIAs have been recorded along either Meadow Lane or Glebe Way over the study period. 4 BSP Consulting MAM/17-0473 Former Isolation Hospital & Toll House, Meadow Lane, Syston Transport Statement 2.9 The PIA records do not therefore indicate any PIA clusters or common causes within the area over the study period. Based on the PIA information, the locality is not considered to suffer from any specific highway safety concerns. 5 BSP Consulting MAM/17-0473 Former Isolation Hospital & Toll House, Meadow Lane, Syston Transport Statement 3.0 Existing Site and Development Proposals Existing Site 3.1 The development site is formed by a combination of part of an agricultural field and buildings formerly used as an Isolation Hospital and Toll House. The land tenant, who runs a heavy horse carriage company from the site, is currently using the former Isolation Hospital and Toll House buildings for storage purposes. The existing buildings used by the operation provide a total GFA of 276m2. 3.2 A gated single track provides access to the site from Meadow Lane. Development Proposals 3.3 The proposals are for the development of 7 single family holiday lets with associated car and secure cycle parking, and private and communal open space. 3.4 Four of the holiday lets are to be situated in the refurbished / reconstructed isolation hospital building, whilst the remaining three are to be located in a new building on the site of the former toll house. The proposed lets range from 2 to 5bed units (2 x 2bed, 2 x 3bed, 2 x 4bed and 1 x 5bed). 3.5 The proposed holiday lets are being developed with a strong emphasis on sustainability, resulting in the following design objectives being adopted: • Replacing the existing and historical built from with sustainable, energy efficient buildings which reflect what was there before; • Protecting the existing trees and hedgerows separating the site from the canal tow path and incorporating and enhancing existing site landscaping into the design; • Provide secure, enclosed cycle parking for all the units to allow vehicle free movement to and from the site throughout the duration of the stay; • Provide connectivity to the towpath and the wider cycle path network. 3.6 The proposed cycle storage unit (28 bicycle capacity) is close to the pedestrain / cycle 6 BSP Consulting MAM/17-0473 Former Isolation Hospital & Toll House, Meadow Lane, Syston Transport Statement access from the existing towpath, allowing easy access as cycling is proposed to be the main mode of transport for residents during their stay. The proposed site layout plan is included as Appendix A. Site Access Proposals 3.7 The location of the existing vehicular access point will be retained as part of the development proposals. However, the access road will be widened to provide a carriageway width of 5m and corner radii of 6m at the junction with Meadow Lane. 3.8 Guidance on visibility splay requirements is given in the ‘6C’s Design Guide’ recommends a X-distance of 2.4m and a Y-distance of 43m for a road with speeds of up to 30mph. The speed limit of the road as it travels adjacent to the site is 30mph, although on-site observations indicate that vehicle speeds are significantly lower, particularly to the west as vehicles slow to safely pass over the humpback bridge over the Grand Union Canal. The visibility splays are marked on the drawing included as Appendix B.

  • Roman Roads in Britain
    ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN c < t < r c ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN BY THE LATE THOMAS CODRINGTON M, INST.C. E., F. G S. fFITH LARGE CHART OF THE ROMAN ROADS AND SMALL MAPS IN THE TEXT REPRINT OF THIRD EDITION LONDON SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE NEW YORK: THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 1919 . • r r 11 'X/^i-r * ' Ci First Edition^ 1903 Second Edition, Revised, 1905 Tliird Edition, Revised, 1918 (.Reprint), 19 „ ,, 19 PREFACE The following attempt to describe the Roman roads of Britain originated in observations made in all parts of the country as opportunities presented themselves to me from time to time. On turning to other sources of information, the curious fact appeared that for a century past the litera- ture of the subject has been widely influenced by the spurious Itinerary attributed to Richard of Cirencester. Though that was long ago shown to be a forgery, statements derived from it, and suppositions founded upon them, are continually repeated, casting suspicion sometimes unde- served on accounts which prove to be otherwise accurate. A wide publicity, and some semblance of authority, have been given to imaginary roads and stations by the new Ordnance maps. Those who early in the last century, under the influence of the new Itinerary, traced the Roman roads, unfortunately left but scanty accounts of the remains which came under their notice, many of which have since been destroyed or covered up in the making of modern roads; and with the evidence now available few Roman roads can be traced continuously. The gaps can often be filled with reasonable certainty, but more often the precise course is doubtful, and the entire course of some roads connecting known stations of the Itinerary of Antonine can only be guessed at.

We bought a property in Syston as Syston is where we wanted to live. If we had wanted to live in thurmaston we would have done so and also would have got a property in that area cheaper. With this change if will affect my family expenditure due to insurance payments etc. Please take note in looking at the current thurmaston area in making it better and having it being busier with the additional 5000 homes being built soon. This is unfair on residents and the change doesn't need to take place.
