CEG and Mixed Farms acknowledge the importance of safeguarding land for transport proposals to ensure that
sufficient land is available to deliver vital infrastructure to help meet growth requirements. Policy Direction 6
refers to Figure 9 of the SWLP which shows the broad locations of several transport infrastructure projects
including the “South Western Relief Road and alternative routes” however the plan at Figure 9 is very high-level
and at this stage does not allow for true consideration as to whether “development within the areas safeguarded
for the transport infrastructure” …”could inhibit the effective delivery of the infrastructure”.
It is essential that future policies are refined with accurate plans identifying allocations and transport
infrastructure including how the two interact. Safeguarding should take a balanced approach without impacting
the Plans’ objectives by unnecessarily delaying or complicating the delivery of critical housing and infrastructure.
Whilst it is acknowledged that the LPA and LHA will be involved in the process, CEG and Mixed Farms consider
that SG19 – East of Stratford-upon-Avon is capable of delivering the ERR and the preferred routing should be led
by the parties in control of land within SG19, rather than by specific policies, the LPA or the LHA.
CEG and Mixed Farms outline the importance of policy relating to safeguarding for transport proposals not
limiting the potential of SG19, or other similarly identified SGLs, to deliver sustainable development.
