In the image (left), the complete site boundaries are shown bordered red, with potential open areas
green. The white area within the plan red borders is where the housing is proposed to be
developed. Access points to the development are shown as purple arrows, this
involves the provision of four new access points onto Station Road. The site profile suggests these will
be roundabout's or traffic lights.
The land was previously designated Agriculture (Safeguarded land in the UDP). This along with the Holystone
development will result in housing on both sides of the Rising Sun Country Park.
The issues for consideration and resolution in the core strategy relating to transport & highways for
the Station Road development says:
"Transport Assessment Required. A191 suffers significant congestion, Holystone/A19 improved
but limited capacity remains. Also congestion at Station Rd/Coast Rd. Access via new roundabout and /
or signalised junction on Station Road. Route improvement works to Public Rights of Way in area W9 to
bridleway should be sought. Tarmac cycle path required to west of Station Rd, dust paths to North, West
and through site."
This site may exceed Primary and Secondary education capacity.
This is a google map of the three sites. This land is marked as Agriculture (Safeguarded land) in the present UDP.
