CONCLUSIONS 7-1 iii Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd, The Harrow Way, Scott Marshall POI v1.doc Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd, The Harrow Way, Basingstoke Proof of Evidence of Scott Marshall 1. INTRODUCTION QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE 1.1 My name is Scott Marshall and I am employed as a Managing Consultant within Atkins Highways & Transportation, part of the Atkins Group. I hold a Bachelor of Engineering Degree in Civil Engineering from The University of Liverpool. I am a Chartered Civil Engineer, a Member of The Institution of Civil Engineers and a Member of The Chartered Institution of Highways & Transportation. 1.2 I have over 12 years of consultancy experience in transport planning, traffic engineering and highway engineering. I currently hold the position of Managing Consultant within the Development & Public Realm Business, which provides consultancy services with respect to all aspects of land development and regeneration. Within this business I lead the Development Planning sector nationally. 1.3 I have extensive experience of preparing Transport Statements, Transport Assessments and Travel Plans and associated development led highway engineering schemes, for a variety of developments throughout the UK. SCOPE OF MY INVOLVEMENT & THIS PROOF OF EVIDENCE 1.4 In November 2012, I was appointed by Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council to represent the Council on transport and highways matters related to the appeal at the proposed development at Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd Site, The Harrow Way, Basingstoke. 1-1 Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd, The Harrow Way, Basingstoke Proof of Evidence of Scott Marshall 1.5 A planning application (number BDB/75056) was submitted for “Erection of a Class A1 (retail) foodstore with associated car park, landscaping and in-principle proposed off-site highway works.” The application was refused by Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council (hereafter referred to as “the Council”) at Development Control Planning Committee, dated 25th July 2012, and subsequent Refusal Notice, dated 16th August 2012 (Core Document 8.2). This application forms the subject of this appeal. 1.6 I have undertaken a comprehensive site visit for the purposes of the appeal, and thus have a good knowledge of the site and the surrounding transport network. 1.7 I have met with highways officers of the Council and Hampshire County Council (HCC) for the purposes of the appeal. 1.8 I have reviewed the webcast of the Planning Committee meeting to satisfy myself that I could support Members reasons for refusal. My summary notes have been included in Appendix A. 1.9 This Proof of Evidence refers to the appellant’s Transport Assessment (26th August 2011) (Core Document 6.4) prepared for the site, as well as drawings of the in-principle proposed off-site highways works (Core Document 7.5 & Appendix B), prepared by the appellant. It also refers to key HCC letters dated November 2011 and dated 15th May 2012 (Appendix 2 and 3 of Katherine Miles Proof of Evidence) and the Final Draft Agreed Statement on Transport Matters, as to be agreed between the appellant and HCC dated 4th January 2013 (Core Document 9.12). 1-2 Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd, The Harrow Way, Basingstoke Proof of Evidence of Scott Marshall 1.10 In evaluating the Council’s case I considered three specific aspects of the highways case, namely: - (i) The LinSig traffic modelling that underpins the proposed highway changes as covered by Appendix C; (ii) The road safety aspects of the proposals as covered in by Road Safety Assessment presented in Appendix D; and (iii) The design of the Brighton Hill Roundabout as covered by the technical review presented in Appendix E. REASONS FOR REFUSAL 1.11 Planning permission was refused for five reasons; the first and second reasons were on retail planning grounds and will be covered in the Proof of Evidence presented by Jonathon Baldock. The third and fourth reasons relate to highways matters and are covered by the scope of this Proof of Evidence. The fifth reason relates to the proposed mechanism for securing off-site highways works and will be covered in the Proof of Evidence presented by Katherine Miles, appeal Case Officer. 1.12 I include the relevant reasons for refusal below that will be subsequently covered by my evidence: Reason 3, which states “The in-principle design of the off-site highways works, including site accesses, does not include sufficient detail to satisfactorily demonstrate that the proposed highway works would adequately mitigate against the significant impact of the proposed development for all highways users. It has also not been demonstrated that safe and suitable access to the site can be achieved and that the proposed highway works can be effectively undertaken 1-3 Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd, The Harrow Way, Basingstoke Proof of Evidence of Scott Marshall within the transport network in such a way as to mitigate the significant impacts of the development. As such, the proposed development would be contrary to Saved Policy E1 of the Basingstoke and Deane Borough Local Plan 1996-2011; and paragraph 32 of the National Planning Policy Framework (March 2012). Reason 4, which states “It is considered that the proposed development, through the proposed associated highways works at Brighton Hill roundabout, would not adequately cater for the needs of vulnerable road users including pedestrians and cyclists resulting in severance across established movement routes. As such the severance of such routes would add hazards for vulnerable users with the proposed works to the Brighton Hill roundabout resulting in danger, inconvenience, obstruction and interruption of the movement of traffic. The proposed works to the Brighton Hill Roundabout do not provide safe and convenient movement for all potential users nor do they integrate the development into the existing surrounding movement network, contrary to Saved Policies E1 and A2 of the Basingstoke and Deane Borough Local Plan 1996- 2011 and the National Planning Policy Framework (March 2012).” STRUCTURE OF EVIDENCE 1.13 In this Proof of Evidence I present evidence to support reasons for refusal 3 and 4, then provide further material relevant to the Council’s case, before concluding remarks in light of policy. 1.14 In reading reasons for refusal 3 and 4 it should be recognised that there is some overlap between them and accordingly my proof is structured as follows: - (i) Reason for refusal 3: Part 1 – Insufficient Detail regarding the In-Principle Proposed Highway Plans; 1-4 Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd, The Harrow Way, Basingstoke Proof of Evidence of Scott Marshall (ii) Reason for refusal 3: Part 2 – Insufficient Detail regarding Transport Assessment; (iii) Reason for refusal 3: Part 3 – Design of off-site highways works; (iv) Reason for refusal 4: Brighton Hill Roundabout; (v) Other Relevant Matters; and (vi) Conclusion. 1.15 The section on Reason for refusal 3: Part 1 and Part 2 specifically address Members’ concerns over not having sufficient information and detail upon which to base an informed decision. In Part 3 I will cover reason 3 in much greater depth to demonstrate that Members were justified in their position. 1.16 The section, Reason for refusal 4, will cover those matters not previously covered by Reason for refusal 3. 1.17 I include a final section called Other Relevant Matters that I believe are pertinent to the Appeal and should be drawn to the Inspector’s attention. 1-5 Former Smiths Industries Aerospace Ltd, The Harrow Way, Basingstoke Proof of Evidence of Scott Marshall 2.

  • Get out and Walk a Visitors’ Guide to Exploring Test Valley
    Get out and walk A visitors’ guide to exploring Test Valley Produced by Test Valley Borough Council in association with Hampshire County Council Countryside Service and the Hampshire Ramblers. 2 Test Valley is fortunate not only to have the longest river in Hampshire, beautiful countryside, a host of charming villages but also 500 miles of rights of way and fantastic open spaces to explore. Danebury Hillfort is owned by Hampshire County Council and Chilbolton Common by the Parish Council. Stockbridge Down, Stockbridge Marsh, Plaitford Common and Mottisfont House are owned by the National Trust. Broughton Down, a local nature reserve and Harewood Forest add ecological and historical Stcid Dw fascination and should not be missed. Msf H Danebury Hillfort 3 Whether you are visiting Test Valley, or already live here, this guide will help you make the most of the countless opportunities to explore the area on foot. It will also point you in the direction for many other walks. DID YOU KNOW Test Valley has more Iron Age Hillforts than anywhere else in Hampshire? Scan the horizon from the vantage of Danebury Hill. On a clear day, it is said you can see at least 5 other hillforts, including Bury Hill to the north, Quarley in the west and Woolbury on Stockbridge Down to the east. All of these fascinating places are accessible to you. Imagine what it may have been like thousands of years ago when Test Valley was a very different place. Its two Roman roads, The Icknield Way and Portway, cast striking lines on the map and are traced in today’s landscape by footpaths, hedgelines and banks.

  • The North Downs Main Trackways
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 64 1951 THE NORTH DOWNS MAIN TRACKWAYS By IVAIT D. MARGABY, F.S.A. THE importance of the main trackway connecting the principal habita- tion sites of early Man in Wiltshire with the Channel coast in Kent is a matter of general agreement. West of Farnham the route hears the ancient name " Harrow Way," but eastwards from that point it has generally been associated with the term " Pilgrims' Way," from its supposed use by pilgrims travelling from Winchester to Canterbury. In recent years much doubt hag been cast upon the authenticity of the pilgrim tradition, but this does not, of course, in any way affect the undoubted importance of the route to prehistoric and later traffic generally. One curious result of the preoccupation with the pilgrim tradition, however, has been obliviousness to the existence of the main ridgeway along the Downs, although it can be traced almost continuously along their entire length, generally still in use as a road or track. Much has been written about the Pilgrims' Way, which usually follows the foot of the main escarpment, but I am not aware that any writer has even so much as hinted at the existence of an accompanying ridgeway, excepting for a brief reference by Mr. Belloc1 to a " flanking road " along the Hog's Back in Surrey. In my book, Roman Ways in the Weald, there is a short section dealing in general terms with this dual trackway, which would have been in contemporary use although not an engineered Roman road, but recently, thanks to the co-operation of the Archaeology Branch of the Ordnance Survey, I have had the opportunity of examining the entire route of the ridgeway in order to plot its course upon the maps, for in future it is intended to mark both tracks " Ancient Trackway." It is perhaps scarcely necessary to describe the course of the ridgeway in detail, because it is the ridgeway and can usually be traced quite clearly as a road or track, often with a parish boundary following it, along the crest of the Downs, or sometimes a little to the north of the crest.

  • October 2020 Newsletter
    As the prospect of societal changes loomed large, the Society held an emergency meeting at 6 Chequers Park on February 18th. to find a new chairman as David’s health was less than robust. After some considerable discussion the Committee for 2020 was set up as follows; President Revd. John Makey Chairman Tim Betts Secretary Cilla Deeks Treasurer Anna Clark Archivist Maureen de Saxe Members Paul Burnham Ellie Morris Rosie Fletcher Brian Roberts Kathy Roberts Jonathan Timms Sarah Morris A further meeting, at the same venue, was held to discuss what we can do to keep members interested until Covid restrictions are lifted and we can meet again. The outcome was this newsletter which will (I hope) be monthly and will keep you all up to date with what is planned as well as providing some light reading on matters of interest. We would be grateful for any ideas you may have for articles for the newsletter, please send to Tim Betts [email protected] in ‘Word’ format. Articles should be one or two A4 pages long and can be on any historical subject, local or national.

  • Harrow Way 50Th Birthday Anniversary Newsletter 1967–2017
    Harrow Way 50th Birthday Anniversary Newsletter 1967–2017 Celebrating 50 years of outstanding teaching and learning here in the heart of Andover Then and Now In 1967 we opened our shiny new doors for the very first time, welcoming just 140 students. Over the last fifty years thousands of students have walked through those doors. Initially as 11 year olds of varying confidence and abilities but all leaving as self-assured 16 year olds, bearing the hallmarks of a Harrow Way education - confident, independent and well prepared for a successful future. Enjoy reading this 50th anniversary newsletter in which we celebrate our past, acknowledge how far we have come and take a look to the next wonderful 50 years. Michael Serridge, Headteacher In September 1967 Harrow Way was the first mixed modern secondary school in Andover. At the time John Hanson was the town’s Grammar school and at the top of London Road there was Andover Senior Girls’ School and across the road on what is now Winton Chase they had a separate boys’ school. On day one in 1967 headteacher Alan Garner said: “My one aim is to make this the finest school in the county”. At the time the Harrow Way building was considered the best secondary school in Hampshire. My one aim is to make this the finest school in the county It must have seemed very empty for that first year with only 140 students aged 11 and 12 in six classes. Along with Mr Garner there were 10 teachers giving a student to teacher ratio of 1:14.
