  • Playing Pitch Strategy
    South Northamptonshire Council Playing Pitch Strategy December 2007 Introduction 1.1 During August 2006, South Northamptonshire Council commissioned PMP to review and update the previous countywide playing pitch strategy completed in April 2002, focusing specifically on the district. The strategy has been developed following the methodology outlined in “Towards a Level Playing Field.” 1.2 This strategy builds on the recently completed PPG17 compliant open space, sport and recreation study which considers the provision of open spaces district wide, including a range of outdoor sports facilities. The level of detail within this document provides a bespoke assessment of the supply and demand for different pitch sports and outlines specific priorities for future provision. This is particularly important in light of the population growth within the local area. 1.3 The key objectives of this playing pitch strategy are to: • analyse the current level of pitch provision, including the geographical spread and quality of pitches • assist the Council in meeting the requirements for playing pitches in accordance with the methodology developed by Sport England in conjunction with the National Playing Fields Association (NPFA) and the Central Council for Physical Recreation (CCPR) • identify the demand for pitches in the district • run the Playing Pitch Methodology (explained in detail in section five) to ascertain levels of under / over supply • identify how facilities for pitch sports can be improved to meet the needs of the community • provide strategic options and recommendations including - provision to be protected - provision to be enhanced - re-allocation of pitches - proposals for new provision Playing Pitch Strategy 1 • provide information to help the decision making process and determine future development proposals including the production of specific local standards relating to playing pitch provision.

  • 2. the Site and Surroundings
    2. The Site and Surroundings 2.1 The Order Limits of the Proposed Development (Main SRFI Site, Junction 15a of the M1 (J15a) and Other Highway Works) are located in Northamptonshire in the East Midlands region of England, approximately 20km north-west of Milton Keynes and approximately 6km south of Northampton. 2.2 The rail interchange, warehousing, access from the A43, and associated infrastructure falls within the administrative boundary of South Northamptonshire Council (SNC). Other minor highways works are also required, which fall within both SNC and Northampton Borough Council (NBC). The proposed works at J15a of the M1 span both local authorities. 2.3 The Order Limits are shown at Appendix 5.1. 2.4 This chapter should be read in conjunction with Chapter 5: The Proposed Development (which also includes further details of mitigation). Further details of the baseline environment within the Order Limits are also provided within the technical chapters, Chapters 9-25. Northamptonshire Context 2.5 Northamptonshire is a predominantly rural county situated in the heart of England. The western half of the County benefits from good north-south links, being on the spine of the M1/M6 motorway and West Coast Main Line (WCML), and Northampton on the Northampton Loop Line (NLL), giving the County good access to the UK’s two biggest cities, London and Birmingham. 2.6 The eastern half of the county is also a key corridor with the Midland Main Line railway running north-south, and the A14 running east-west offering good links to the Haven Seaports. Excellent road and rail connections coupled with the County’s central location have laid the foundations for a strong distribution sector, largely road based, but with large rail-served freight distribution sites at Eurohub near Corby and the Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal.
