Neutral:
The possible interventions shown on Figure 37 and identified in Policy 17 are
broadly similar to those in Table 55 of Transport Evidence Base AAP Report
(September 2019).
Brookgate support the proposed internal and external interventions identified in
Policy 17 which will help sites come forward in accordance with the aspirations of
the AAP and within the trip/parking budgets. The emphasis must be the promotion
of non-car and active modes of travel and delivering a highly connected, and
accessible development by walking, cycling and public transport.
However, blanket financial contributions by developers towards an overall package
of interventions may not be appropriate given the geography of the AAP study
area, the range of interventions proposed and the delay associated with
implementing any charging schedule or equivalent. The current AAP developers
forum and emerging transport assessment process will assist developers in
understanding the value of interventions for their sites. This will help inform which
interventions developers should target for funding
