Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 470

Received: 01/02/2019

Respondent: Mr Neil Hipkiss

Representation Summary:

The Peter Brett Associates (PBA) report states in the Executive Summary: Air Quality (page xvii) that ..."Within existing AQMAs, with the Local Plan traffic in place, there are no predicted exceedances of NAQOs."

In Appendix G: Air Quality Assessment of the same report, Tables 4.1 and 4.6 show that the levels of NO2 at Stockbridge have consistently exceeded maximum levels since 2012.

On page xvi of the Executive Summary, Table 1 shows that Stockbridge ranks 5th in priority of construction.

Therefore, it will be many years before any expected improvement in Air Quality at Stockbridge.

This is completely unacceptable.
