Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect that varying the agreed routing for HGVs would have on highway safety
the effect that varying the agreed routing for HGVs would have on the character and appearance of the area and living conditions of nearby residents, with particular regard to noise and activity

What decided it

The reduction in overall vehicle movements from the use of larger HGVs, combined with evidence that the proposed alternative route would not result in unacceptable impacts on highway safety or significant harm to character, appearance, or living conditions, justified allowing the appeal and varying the HGV routing condition.

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
