Currently the Highway Authority does not have sufficient evidence to judge whether or not the residual cumulative impacts of the development proposed will be severe. This needs to be provided by IBC. The County Council will continue to advise IBC on commissioning further evidence to consider this matter. Modelling undertaken for the adopted Core Strategy suggested that the overall effects of development could be mitigated if sufficient sustainable transport measures were delivered. This model is being updated. It is likely that the planned growth will have significant localised impacts on the highway network, necessitating sustainable transport measures and highway mitigation.
