3 Northern Distributor Road

4 Northern Distributor Road Norwich Area Transportation Strategy (NATS) Northern Distributor Road is a key part of NATS Main aims of the NDR and NATS are to: Bring much needed traffic relief for communities to the north and east of Norwich and the city centre, and improve accessibility Free up road space enabling the implementation of wider NATS ambitions Help support and encourage economic growth outlined in the adopted Joint Core Strategy (employment and housing). Provide direct access to/from Norwich International Airport

5 Norfolk s Location

6 Norfolk s Economy 6

7 Norwich Area Transportation Strategy ( Transport for Norwich ) NATS sets out how the transport system will be developed to accommodate growth in Norwich and address problems such as congestion The Implementation Plan ( Transport for Norwich ) adopted 2010 following extensive consultation and significant support, including from the business sector The Strategy: Tackling existing transport problems and planning ahead Reducing congestion and improving air quality Creating reliable, sustainable transport for all Maintaining the vitality of the city centre Supporting economic growth

12 Northern Distributor Road Why NSIP for the NDR? Legislation (Planning Act 2008) Legislation changes! Section 35 application. Experience in delivering the A47 Postwick junction Delivered ahead of the NDR Land secured through developer agreements Planning consent challenged Still called to Public Inquiry (Side Road Orders)

13 Northern Distributor Road The Development Consent Order Process The Inspectorate has 28 days to decide whether the application meets the required standards to proceed to examination including whether the developer s consultation has been adequate. You can send in your comments in writing. You can request to speak at a public hearing. The Inspectorate has 6 months to carry out the examination.. Timescales shown in bold are the legal maximum. There is the opportunity for legal challenge. Acceptance Examination Decision Preapplication Preexamination Postdecision Look out for information in local media and in public places near the location of the proposed project, such as your library. The developer will be developing their proposals and will consult widely. You can now register as an interested party; you will be kept informed of progress and opportunities to put your case. Inspectors will hold a Preliminary Meeting and set the timetable for examination. A recommendation to the relevant Secretary of State will be issued by the Inspectorate within 3 months. The Secretary of State then has a further 3 months to issue a decision on the proposal.

21 What else is Norfolk doing? December 2016 Full Council meeting: - Norwich Western Link - Great Yarmouth 3 rd River Crossing - Long Stratton bypass Highways England A47 improvements

22 Norwich Western Link

23 Gt Yarmouth Third River Crossing New river bridge to connect trunk road (A47) to Port and Enterprise Zone area: Economic growth hub in the South Denes peninsula Enterprise Zone, Great Yarmouth Energy Park, the South Denes Business Park and the deep water outer harbour, operated by Peel Ports Lack of connectivity severely inhibits movement in Great Yarmouth resulting in congestion and ultimately limiting the economic potential of the Great Yarmouth

24 Gt Yarmouth Third River Crossing County Council already committed close to 4m Successful bid for Large Local Major Transport Scheme funding Outline Business Case being developed for March m Growth Deal commitment to further develop scheme Potential delivery start 2021

25 Long Stratton Bypass Long Stratton Area Action Plan 2016 to 2026 Housing Objective A minimum of 1,800 new houses will be built in locations which support the form and function of the village and deliver a bypass. The bypass will be completed before 250 of the new homes are occupied. The new housing will meet the highest standards of design, energy and water efficiency and affordability whilst recognising the need to sustain and improve the distinctive character of Long Stratton and its surroundings. The necessary infrastructure, including social and community facilities, and public open space will be provided to support new development. Good walking and cycling routes will link the new housing to the town centre.

26 A47 Trunk Road Crucial east west trunk road route across northern East Anglia Connects to A1 at Peterborough for journeys to the north and the Midlands Largely single-carriageway Road does not fulfil its role as part of the strategic network Further major growth is planned along the whole route 26

27 A47 Trunk Road Roads Investment Strategy 1: A47 Alliance: successful advocacy to secure 300m investment Working with Highways England to enable successful delivery Pushing for early delivery Roads Investment Strategy 2: Working with A47 Alliance on case for priorities from A1 to Lowestoft Norfolk s priorities: Acle Straight dualling Tilney to East Winch dualling 27
