These criteria mainly relate to the inherent value of a site rather than current conditions on it, although such characteristics have been noted. Additional criteria apply to undeveloped allocated/development sites although ownership and availability information has not been possible to obtain in many cases and a judgement has been made on these. Each site is given a score of between 1 and 5 against each criterion (1 = poor, 5 = very good). No individual weightings are attached to different criteria. Scorings can reflect a combination of different factors applying to the same criteria and a balanced judgment has to be made on an appropriate overall score. Existing Developed Employment Areas Strategic Access: 5 = Very good: within 2 Km of strategic road junction/ via good unconstrained roads 1 = Poor: over 5 Km from strategic road junction/access, and/or through constrained/local roads, and/or though town centre or residential areas etc. Local Accessibility: 5 = Very good local access: via free moving good roads avoiding residential areas/difficult junctions; unconstrained vehicle access to the site with good visibility/lack of queuing; close access to range of town centre public transport services 1 = Poor: difficult/narrow road access, via residential roads, difficult site access junction, congested local roads; low level/limited range/infrequent public transport services nearby; Proximity to Urban Areas and Access to Labour and Services: 5 = Very good: near centre of urban area with wide range of services nearby; proximity to sizeable residential areas providing local labour supply. 1 = Poor: remote isolated site, no local services or residential areas nearby; Site characteristics and development constraints: 5 = Very good: generally level site, regular shape, over 3 ha in size; low flood risk (Zone 1); no conservation or landscape constraints on scale of development; no adverse ground conditions or abnormal development costs; no other significant constraints on new development, 2953799v1 P13 Castle Point: Employment & Retail Needs Assessment 1 = Poor: sloping/uneven site; under 0.5 ha, irregular/narrow shape, other severe constraints; within flood risk Zone 3; conservation or landscape constraints on scale of development; adverse ground conditions or abnormal development costs Proximity to incompatible uses: 5 = Within larger employment area/no incompatible surrounding land use 3-4 = B1 use adjoining residential/other sensitive uses; 1 = B2/B8 adjoining residential/other sensitive uses; Market Attractiveness: 5 = Very good: high profile/high quality appearance, managed site; good environment and quality of occupiers; under 10% vacant; viewed as attractive by agents/occupiers; recent investment/development activity, strong demand, units rarely available 1 = Poor: run-down unattractive appearance/location; attracts lower end users and over 25% vacant space/buildings; vacant units not marketed; no recent investment; units remain vacant for lengthy period; Sequential Status: Applies to existing/potential office sites only – identifies whether site is in town centre, edge of centre or out-of-centre location in PPS4 terms Barriers to Delivery: Identify any factors that would constrain development of the site for employment uses e.g. site occupied, need for infrastructure Planning Factors: Identify any planning designations or policy constraints that could affect development of the site for employment uses.

  • Capital Project Business Case Fairglen New Link Road
    Capital Project Business Case Fairglen New Link Road The template This document provides the business case template for projects seeking funding which is made available through the South East Local Enterprise Partnership. It is therefore designed to satisfy all SELEP governance processes, approvals by the Strategic Board, the Accountability Board and also the early requirements of the Independent Technical Evaluation process where applied. It is also designed to be applicable across all funding streams made available by Government through SELEP. It should be filled in by the scheme promoter – defined as the final beneficiary of funding. In most cases, this is the local authority; but in some cases the local authority acts as Accountable Body for a private sector final beneficiary. In those circumstances, the private sector beneficiary would complete this application and the SELEP team would be on hand, with local partners in the federated boards, to support the promoter. Please note that this template should be completed in accordance with the guidelines laid down in the HM Treasury’s Green Book. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-green-book- appraisal-and-evaluation-in-central-governent As described below, there are likely to be two phases of completion of this template. The first, an ‘outline business case’ stage, should see the promoter include as much information as would be appropriate for submission though SELEP to Government calls for projects where the amount awarded to the project is not yet known. If successful, the second stage of filling this template in would be informed by clarity around funding and would therefore require a fully completed business case, inclusive of the economic appraisal which is sought below.

  • Topic Paper 2: Stategic Highway Network
    Southend Central Area Action Plan TOPIC PAPER 2: STATEGIC HIGHWAY NETWORK March 2017 Topic Paper 2: Strategic Highway Network This topic paper builds upon the information set out in the Southend Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) (2015)1 in explaining that the Council has been, and continues to be, successful in implementing key transport improvements and securing future funds to support the growth targets of the adopted Core Strategy (2007). Local Policy Context The IDP is a supporting document for the Southend Core Strategy and part of the Local Planning Framework for Southend. The IDP covers the remaining plan period up until 2021. The document includes details of the infrastructure identified by the Council and other service providers as being needed to support the delivery of the Core Strategy. The IDP assesses the transport infrastructure required to support the planned jobs and housing growth of the Core Strategy, which include those of the SCAAP. The assessment was informed by the SOSBC Transport Team and the Highway Agency. In compliance with the Transport Act 2000, Southend Borough Council (SBC) has prepared a Local Transport Plan Strategy (LTP3) and an Implementation Plan for the period 2011/2012 to 2026. This, together with the use of the Southend Multi-Modal Transport Model, information sourced from the Local Sustainable Transport Fund and the Better Bus Area application (in terms of levels of infrastructure investment), has informed the IDP assessment. Significant projects and the business case used to inform the development of the South East Local Enterprise (SELEP) Strategic Economic Plan (SEP) are referred to further in this section in terms of transport funding for the planned growth in employment and housing in both Southend and Rochford (predominantly in the context of the Joint Area Action Plan (JAAP) for London Southend Airport and Environs).

These two sites represent an urban extension to Basildon on its west side and a new ‘Garden Village’ settlement based on the Dunton Hills area. This document sets out the analysis undertaken and the scheme options proposed. This study is guided by the two councils’ draft local plans for future strategic development, and the project requirement to ensure that there is a visual separation between the potential new settlement areas. The work is intended to investigate the following aspects: • Whether a corridor can be provided to achieve visual separation; • Whether there are opportunities to use this landscape corridor to improve biodiversity and recreational connectivity; • Whether there are opportunities for the corridor to be traversed by local highway connections.
