INFORMATIVES

 

S278 Agreement: Any works within the highway boundary will need to be secured and approved via a s278 Agreement. The grass verge between the road and the property boundary is considered to be public highway. Work on this land will be subject to a s278 Agreement. It should be pointed out that, at this stage, HCC is NOT approving the materials / construction details. This will be included within the s278 Agreement. It is possible that the materials which HCC requires in the highway will be different from those within the property. In determining the materials, HCC will consider the long term maintenance costs.

 

Advisory Note 1: Construction standards for works within the highway: The applicant is advised that in order to comply with this permission it will be necessary for the developer of the site to enter into an agreement with Hertfordshire County Council as Highway Authority under Section 278 of the Highways Act 1980 to ensure the satisfactory completion of the access and associated road improvements. The construction of such works must be undertaken to the satisfaction and specification of the Highway Authority, and by a contractor who is authorised to work in the public highway. Before works commence the applicant will need to apply to the Highway Authority to obtain their permission and requirements. Further information is available via the website http://www.hertsdirect.org/services/transtreets/highways/ or by telephoning 0300 1234047.

 

Advisory Note 2: Storage of materials: The applicant is advised that the storage of materials associated with the construction of this development should be provided within the site on land which is not public highway, and the use of such areas must not interfere with the public highway. If this is not possible, authorisation should be sought from the Highway Authority before construction works commence. Further information is available via the website http://www.hertsdirect.org/services/transtreets/highways/ or by telephoning 0300 1234047.

 

ARTICLE 35 STATEMENT

Planning permission has been granted for this proposal. Discussion with the applicant to seek an acceptable solution was not necessary in this instance. The Council has therefore acted pro-actively in line with the requirements of the Framework (paragraphs 186 and 187) and in accordance with the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) (Amendment No. 2) Order 2015.
