RIVER TRENT and the TRENT and MERSEY CANAL
RIVER TRENT and the TRENT AND MERSEY CANAL The River Trent rises near Biddulph Moor in Staffordshire and flows through that county and the counties of Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and finally, after 168 miles, Humberside. It ends at Trent Falls and its confluence with the Rivers Ouse and Humber. The Trent is our third longest river. Its principal tributaries being; the rivers Sow, Tame, Dove, Derwent, Erewash, Soar and Idle, all of which are canoeable. The River Trent is known to be practicable from Trentham Park, except in dry spells, but the usual starting place for "the 100 mile" is either from Stone on the Trent or Penkridge on the River Penk, then into the River Sow joining the Trent at Haywood. The Trent and Mersey Canal runs parallel for much of its length, and provides an alternative route. River Grading: 1 - 2 Water Authorities: River Trent - Severn-Trent Canal - B.W.B.

Housing Allocations Sequential Test
Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies Housing Allocations Sequential Test April 2018 KS/CLI/05 Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. Context and Background 1 3. Sequential Test 3 Appendix 1: Preferred Housing Sites within Flood Zones 2 and 3a 8 1. Introduction 1.1 This paper sets out the Sequential Test for the proposed development allocations identified in Rushcliffe Borough Council’s Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies (hereafter referred to as Local Plan Part 2). Following the steps outlined in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and the national Planning Practice Guidance, the sequential approach is designed to ensure that, wherever possible, sites at little or no risk of flooding are developed in preference to sites at higher risk of flooding. 1.2 The sequential test covers two main elements: Part 1 provides information about the allocations including flood risk, flood defences, proposed and existing uses and the vulnerability classification related to these uses; and Part 2 sets out the sequential test for each location. 2. Context and Background 2.1 Rushcliffe’s northern boundary is formed by the River Trent, which flows southwest to northeast through the main urban area of Nottingham, pass Newark, Gainsborough and Scunthorpe and finally into the Humber Estuary. 2.2 West Bridgford is the largest ‘settlement’ in Rushcliffe, comprising Nottingham’s main urban area south of the River Trent. Given its proximity to the river and the extent of low lying areas within the floodplain, significant areas of West Bridgford are identified as being at risk of river flooding.

APPENDIX 1 DRAFT NET PHASE 2 PROJECT AIMS NET Phase 2 Is a Key Element of the Greater Nottingham Transport Strategy and Will
APPENDIX 1 DRAFT NET PHASE 2 PROJECT AIMS NET Phase 2 is a key element of the Greater Nottingham transport strategy and will secure substantial benefits to the wider ‘Three Cities’ sub-region. The proposals are fully consistent with strategies for land use, planning and economic development, and with policies at national, regional, sub regional and local level. In particular they are fully consistent with the Greater Nottingham Transport Plan, the Regional Spatial Strategy and City of Nottingham, Broxtowe and Rushcliffe Local Plans. The key aims of the project are as follows: 1. To provide a sustainable alternative to the car for many journeys to tackle congestion, particularly on the strategic road network, including the A453 and A52. In common with most other successful Cities, Nottingham suffers from severe traffic congestion, particularly at peak periods on main routes into the city and along the ring road. In light of ever increasing travel demand, tackling congestion and providing alternatives to the car are crucial for the continued economic growth. As demonstrated through the success of Line One and through further expansion in park and ride provision on routes directly connecting the national motorway network, Phase 2 has the ability to attract substantially more people out of their cars. The tram vehicles running at high frequency will expand the capacity of the public transport network within the southern and western sectors of the conurbation. Because the system is of modern design, dependable, easy to use, fully accessible, safe and secure, it is attractive for people to use and represents a substantial enhancement in the quality of public transport provision.
