Welcome intention to continue to make case for highway improvements including Wet Dock Crossing. However, in context of development of the Island Site, provision of Wet Dock Crossing is not a pre-requisite to enable development. Disagree with inclusion of statement (para 5.42) that “which as a minimum will require a road bridge from the west bank to the Island Site… to enable any significant development” - request removal. Need for access will depend on development established through masterplanning. Until established, not appropriate for the DPD to be so prescriptive - request removal of reference.
Request removal of reference:
