Hi Dan,

Thank you for your email of 20 May 2021. I apologise for not responding yesterday as promised. Please find my

responses in green in the body of your email below.

Given that there are still a few outstanding matters, I will not be able to provide final observations to the LPA this

week in time for them to write their observations for the next Planning Committee. I copy in the LPA’s case officer

for information.

I am on leave next week, but would hope that the outstanding elements can be resolved on my return during week

commencing 07 June 2021. Please ensure that your email of 20 May 2021, and any subsequent information, is

submitted to the LPA so that they can formally consult the LHA.

Regards,

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for your responses last week, we have reviewed these and provide an update below on several matters. We are also progressing with the Transport Assessment Addendum as you have requested, to report on the various agreements we have reached.

Nature of footway on Tickow Lane Railway Bridge (action with Stantec);

Response provided by LCC on 12/5. We have updated our proposals to indicate that a kerbed footway will be provided rather than a white line, as you have requested – this is shown in drawing number 332210543-100-004attached and we would be grateful if you could approve this in principle.

AW – I am happy that the revised drawing is suitable to form the basis of a planning condition.

LHA comments on Designer’s Response to RSA1 (action with Stantec);

Response provided by LCC on 12/5. RSA Designers response has been updated to include a comment regarding the footway over the bridge – this is attached for your approval.

AW – I am happy with the revised document.

Nature / deliverability of footway and crossings along A512 (action with Stantec);

Response provided by LCC on 12/5. We are comfortable that this is dealt with through a planning condition – the points you have raised (i.e. drainage) could be resolved through detailed design with relevant notes attached the drawing which would be conditioned; would this be acceptable?

AW – I require an updated preliminary design now given that pedestrian refuges will be required with associated

highway widening of the A512, to confirm that this is feasible within highway, on the basis that a planning

condition will need to be deliverable. I am, however, content that the drainage matters can be dealt with as part

of future detailed design (and that a note saying such can be added to the drawing).

Southern Tickow Lane Access junction – LHA comments do not seem to have been taken on board on drawing in tech note, and no revised swept path analysis presented (action with Stantec)

The access drawing has been updated to include the swept path analysis and some minor widening to reduce the extent of overrunning the centre line (notwithstanding that two refuse vehicles would not be using the junction at the same time); this is shown in drawing number 332210543-100-003 Rev A attached and we would be grateful if you could approve this in principle

AW – I am happy that the revised drawing is suitable to form the basis of a planning condition.

On-Site Bridge Crossing / Emergency Access matters (action with LHA – I will respond ASAP);

Response provided by LCC on 12/5 confirming no need for emergency access and provision of one bridge within the site is acceptable.

AW – Agreed.

PROW (action with LHA – I will respond ASAP);

Response provided by LCC on 12/5. We note that you are recommending that the PRoW improvement is to be done under condition rather than Section 106 agreement as we discussed with the PRoW officer. Previously, in Leicestershire, where PRoW upgrades have been established but lie outside of the land ownership, we have established that these are to be delivered through a Section 106. Can we discuss how this could work if LCC require it to be a condition please?

AW – We require a condition, as set out in my email a few minutes ago to your colleague Pete Wearing, unless it

is confirmed that this is not possible in planning terms.

Sum of contribution to Shepshed Highway Improvements (action with LHA – I will respond ASAP);

Please see our response to the below.

AW - I have reviewed the information below and am very pleased that the Applicant is willing to contribute to the

A512 schemes. I am in the process of reviewing your suggested methodology against how we have previously

determined contributions to the schemes and will respond further as soon as possible. If this is not by tomorrow,

it will be during week commencing 07 June 2021.

Modelling matters – LCC need to review/agree Stantec modelling of M1 J23 and Shepshed signal junctions once reviewed from Stantec (action with Stantec)

We have run our traffic flows using the models provided by LCC and provide a summary of the results below, and the PRC reported in Table 1.

M1 Junction 23 has plenty of spare capacity with little development impact and as such a contribution to the recently completed improvement is not required

Both A512 junctions operate with spare capacity if run without the pedestrian stage (with and without development)

The two A512 signalised junctions are slightly over capacity in with the current highway improvement with and without development if pedestrian crossing are called every cycle.

11.2 12.6 -0.1 -0.4 -3.3 -2.5 12.5 9.1 8.1 7.8

AW – I am content that the results summarised above do not identify impacts with are significant enough to

warrant further improvements to these off site junctions in connection with the application. However, I will

require the models for review prior to formally confirming this.

Notwithstanding this, we recognise that LCC is seeking contributions for the two A512 schemes to recover the forward funding LCC has provided. We have reviewed the contributions recently sought for the 63 dwelling scheme on Iveshead Road (ref. P/20/1347/2) which outlined a contribution for each junction and we have converted this to a per dwelling basis; these contributions are set out below:

Ashby Road/ Charnwood Road/ Iveshead Road = £75,863.63 (per dwelling = £1,204.18) Ashby Road/ Leicester Road/ Ingleberry Road = £103,784.23 (per dwelling = £1,647.37)

Applying the £1,204.18 and £1,647.37 per dwelling to the proposed 210 dwellings at the proposed development off Tickow Lane, would result in contributions of up to £252,878.77 and up to £345,947.43 for the Iveshead Road and Ingleberry Road schemes respectively and a total contribution of £598,826.20. Our client has confirmed that on the basis that the contribution is required and proportionate, and to be made under a Section 106 contribution, they are happy with this amount so if you could confirm this is acceptable, that would be most appreciated.

As noted above, the TA Addendum is being prepared to capture the above points. If you can confirm agreement to the final points we will be able to reference in that in the TA Addendum.

Hi Dan,

Thank you for this. Our emails have crossed this morning (I attach my earlier email). I’ve scanned through the Tech Note at a high level and, subject to a more detailed review of the note and taking into account my earlier email attached, I consider the main points on which we still need to reach agreement to be as follows:

Nature of footway on Tickow Lane Railway Bridge (action with Stantec); LHA comments on Designer’s Response to RSA1 (action with Stantec); Nature / deliverability of footway and crossings along A512 (action with Stantec); Southern Tickow Lane Access junction – LHA comments do not seem to have been taken on board on

drawing in tech note, and no revised swept path analysis presented (action with Stantec) On-Site Bridge Crossing / Emergency Access matters (action with LHA – I will respond ASAP); PROW (action with LHA – I will respond ASAP); Sum of contribution to Shepshed Highway Improvements (action with LHA – I will respond ASAP); Modelling matters – LCC need to review/agree Stantec modelling of M1 J23 and Shepshed signal junctions

once reviewed from Stantec (action with Stantec)

I will advise of any other matters once I have reviewed the tech note in more detail, and will also respond on my outstanding actions, as soon as possible. In the meantime, I’d welcome your response on the points for Stantec’s action above.

Good morning Adrian

Hope you are well. We are trying to get to the next planning committee and as such, had been advised that material to be reconsulted on needed to be issued to Charnwood yesterday. As a result, we have prepared the attached note and issued it to the planning authority along with other matters relating to the application.

This represents our understanding of the current situation, and we hope look forward to working with you to finalise the remaining items as quickly as possible.

This represents our understanding of the current situation, and we hope look forward to working with you to finalise the remaining items as quickly as possible.

Kind regards,

Dan Griffiths BSc (Hons) MCIHT MTPS

2. Introduction

This Technical Note provides a response to a Stage 1 Road Safety Audit (RSA) report that was 2.1.prepared by TMS (TMS document ref. no. 16295), dated 23 April 2021, of new site accesses off Tickow Lane and proposals at Tickow Lane bridge, associated with a proposed residential development on Land off Ashby Road West, Shepshed, Leicestershire.

The TMS report and RSA Brief is held in Appendix A and the drawings depicting the proposals 2.2.subject to the Stage 1 RSA are held in Appendix B.

2.1 Location: Tickow Road, north access

Summary: Speed related junction collisions

As the north access is in close proximity to the shuttle signals over the bridge, with a limited visibility splay, depending on the phasing of the signals, distant traffic might speed up when they see a green light to pass through it before it changes. This could increase vehicle speeds at the junction and could increase the risk of collisions with vehicles pulling out into high-speed oncoming traffic.

The signals should be set to ‘rest on red’ to help control vehicle speeds at the shuttle signals.

Agreed. The settings of the signals will be confirmed prior to installation.

2.2 Location: Extents of scheme

Summary: Collisions in the hours of darkness

It was noted that there

The scheme should be fully street lit to tie into the existing lighting at both the north and south extents of the scheme, ensuring consistent levels of

Agreed. Proposals to provide street lighting along the lane will be discussed with the local highway authority.

was a system of street lighting at both the south and north extents of the scheme, however no additional lighting has been specified to cover the two accesses and the shuttle signals over the bridge. Drivers will therefore go from light to dark conditions at critical conflict points, where their eye site might not have sufficient time to adjust to the change in lighting levels. This could increase the risk of shunt and junction collisions, where they might not observe vehicles both queuing at the bridge or manoeuvring in and out of the two accesses.

Additionally, drivers might not observe pedestrians walking on the footway over the bridge, with potential kerb strikes and the risk of pedestrians being struck.

Summary: Junction collisions

From the site visit, there was a utility inspection chamber located in the verge, where the southern access is proposed to be located. This might have poor skid resistant properties or could be inconsistent with the carriageway surface. This could therefore increase the risk of vehicles skidding and losing control when manoeuvring at the junction, especially for two wheeled vehicles and in wet and icy conditions.

at the next design stage and will include the relocation of the inspection cover away from the middle of the proposed site access.

Location: Tickow Lane bridge

Summary: Collisions with pedestrians on footway

Demarcation of the footway with a white line could result in vehicles drifting over the white line and potentially colliding with pedestrians walking

Fully constructed kerbed footway should be provided

Agreed. Kerbed footway will be provided.
