Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/22/03652/DOC

Conditions or Reasons:

2) No vehicles (including construction traffic) shall cross the public footway at the location shown on the approved drawing, until the vehicle access 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.

3) Before the access is first brought into use, a triangular vision splay shall be provided on each side of the new access drive and shall be 2.8m measured along the back edge of the highway from the centre line of the anticipated vehicle path to a point 2.0m measured from the back edge of the highway into the site along the centre line of the anticipated vehicle path. The vision splay so described and on land under the applicant's control shall be maintained free of any obstruction to visibility exceeding a height of 600mm above the adjoining footway level.

Reason
To provide adequate visibility between the existing highway and the proposed access and to make the access safe and convenient for the traffic which is likely to use it.

4) Prior to commencement of development details of the layout of the widened site access shall be submitted to the Local Planning Authority for approval including details of the surfacing in bituminous or other similar durable material (not loose aggregate) for a minimum distance of 5m into the site, measured from the highway boundary and shall be constructed before the dropped kerb is brought in to use. 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.

Reason
To avoid the carriage of mud or other extraneous material or surface water from the site into the highway so as to safeguard the interest of highway safety.
