Construction impacts:
- No mitigation measures references in the local plan for construction traffic, except BC1 and HS2 construction.
- Given planned level of growth, encourage the use of Construction Management Plans for significant development, to mitigate against construction logistics and the environmental impacts on the surrounding area.
Introduce as policy:
- Undertaking of Construction Management & Logistics Plans, and Delivery and Servicing Plans, together with
- Adherence to the Construction and Logistics Community Safety Scheme (CLOCS) to minimise against the impacts of HGV's and LGVs on the surrounding highway
- Cycle safety measures should be included for all new development
- Provide safe routes for cyclists during the construction period and beyond
- Consider how freight and servicing may impact on the public realm and local communities
