Following the recent announcement on TUOC, the County continues to support provision of increased east-west capacity. However, the measures set out in this policy (and as shown on the policies map) are not necessarily the same proposals as set out in SP9 and relate to untested routes which may not be deliverable. We would be pleased to discuss this further.

Provision of car parking is complicated, reflecting the need to balance support for economic vitality with managing congestion and air quality. This matter needs further consideration as part of our broader discussions on maximising sustainable transport opportunities.

The proposals to encourage redevelopment of the temporary car parks, through preventing renewal of parking permissions, is welcomed. County would welcome discussion on how evidence will be used to manage the process by which permissions are refused.

Consideration should be given to extent of central parking core. For example, it isn't clear why the western side of Princes Street is excluded.

Site lies largely in Archaeological Character Zone 1d identified in the SPD, the Handford Road area, rather than 2a which is quoted, although it is at the boundary between the two- it makes a significant difference, and the text needs replacing (see suggested wording).

Highways:
- Public rights of way improvements as a mitigation and opportunity to improve sustainable access.
- Site is likely to have a significant on junction already under strain (Anglia PS/ Bury Road) and junction (capacity) enhancement may be necessary to avoid cumulative residual severe impact.
