I have just received the information below, and attached. This is in connection with the planned Taylor Wimpey development.
Proposed Highway Works:
FOR A RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF UP TO 57 DWELLINGS WITH ASSOCIATED ACCESS, INFRASTRUCTURE AND LANDSCAPING.
APPROVED UNDER PLANNING APPLICATION 17/02068/OT and 21/04988/RM.
I wish to bring to your attention the proposed highway works that are required in association with the development of land south of Pool Road, Pool in Wharfedale LS21 1EQ.
The attached plans 733801-LCC-HWT-WD-DR-CH-001 and 733801-LCC-HWT-PB-DR-CH-01_RB show the proposed works at Pool Road and Main Street / Arthington Lane mini-roundabout respectively. The works comprise:
- A new priority-controlled junction off Pool Road.
- Kerb realignment to the north of the access to increase the stagger distance between the site and the junction opposite leading to the Shell garage.
- Relocation of bus stop 10464 Pool Bridge and associated road markings following agreement with WYCA.
- Minor alterations to Main Street / Arthington Lane mini-roundabout to provide a new right turn lane on the southern approach, removal of existing separator island on the eastern approach and associated resurfacing / markings.
- Associated pedestrian crossings with tactile paving, resurfacing, stats and civil works.
- Associated Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) to provide no waiting at any time restrictions (double yellow lines) at the junction bell-mouths, the details of which will be confirmed at detailed design stage.
- Resurfacing works required as a result of the above.
The City Council has requested the developer to enter an agreement under the provisions of Section 278 of the Highways Act 1980 whereby the above works are carried out by the City Council on behalf of the developer Taylor Wimpey UK Ltd.
