6) No building shall be occupied until the junction of the proposed vehicular access with the highway has been constructed in accordance with the approved details.

Reason: In order to minimise danger, obstruction and inconvenience to users of the highway and the premises.
7) No dwelling shall be occupied until a 2m wide footway connection between the development access and new footway provision from planning application CB/19/02382/OUT, has been constructed along Ickwell Road in accordance with details of a scheme to be submitted to and approved by the Local Planning Authority prior to commencement of development. Any Statutory Undertakers equipment or street furniture shall be re-sited to provide an unobstructed footway.

Reason: In the interests of road safety and pedestrian movement.
8) The proposed vehicular access shall be surfaced in bituminous or other similar durable material (not loose aggregate) as may be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority for a distance of 5m into the site, measured from the highway boundary, before the premises are occupied. Arrangements shall be made for surface water drainage from the site to be intercepted and disposed of separately so that it does not discharge into the highway.

Any variation to the connections and controls indicated on the approved drawing which may be necessary at the time of construction would require their submission of those details to the Local Planning Authority for approval.

Reason: To ensure the approved system will function to a satisfactory minimum standard of operation and maintenance and prevent the increased risk of flooding both on and off site, in accordance with para 167 of the NPPF and its supporting technical guidance.

Reason: To ensure that the implementation and long-term operation of a sustainable drainage system (SuDS) is in line with the objectives of Policies CC3 and CC5 of the CBLP (2021).

Reason: To ensure the development is suitably landscaped, and residential amenity retained, in the interests of visual amenity and achieving a high-quality living environment.
15) No above ground works shall take place until a scheme for ecological enhancements has been submitted to an approved in writing by the local planning authority. The measures within the scheme shall be implemented as approved and retained thereafter in perpetuity.
