Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
Objective 6:
1. Junctions/ link roads at/near capacity, not addressed. No evidence growth is sound.
2. Severe capacity issues in 2026 but no infrastructure projects in Infrastructure Tables. Especially town centre, Ipswich Garden Suburb and A1214.
3.Modelling fails to identify when junctions will reach capacity.
4. Failing to Improve Access in breach of CS5. Modal Shift assumptions too high, uncompliant with CS20.
5. CCC assumes 10% modal shift by 2050. No evidence 15% modal shift deliverable by 2026? CCC assumption should be used.
6. Existing walking/ cycling infrastructure substandard, won't enable delivery of modal shift. Need new cycling indicator.
