08080-11-08 - PROPOSED_ENTRANCE_A.pdf Morning Nichola I refer to your enquiry below and our subsequent discussion at your offices. The drawing demonstrates rebuilding of the frontage walls on each side of the access and minor extension of the dropped kerb crossing. Whilst the wall height is not annotated on the drawing, it is understood that these will be rebuilt to a height unlikely to obstruct exit visibility. I note that scrub vegetation is to be removed. Ideally the areas to be maintained clear of obstruction should be identified on the drawing. I think that we have suggested all areas of the site within 2.4m of the carriageway edge, but appreciate that this requirement may well be included within the Conditions. The grip to contain surface water run-off should prove to be an improvement on the existing situation. The Highway Authority recommends that some form of barrier is installed to contain run-off however, if an issue were to arise, this would be covered by Section 163 of the Highways Act 1980. Hope that the above comments are of use.

David Marchington has sent a plan through showing the proposed site entrance improvements at Shire Hill (see email below and attachment). Can you confirm whether this plan is sufficient and that you are happy with the improvements undertaken/proposed at the site access including the felling of trees to improve visibility. If this is the case are you able to confirm the withdrawal of your initial objection? I m in on Thursday, if you are visiting our offices we could have a chat about it? I look forward to hearing from you. Nicola From: David Marchington [mailto:David@marchington.net] Sent: 21 August 2014 15:08 To: Howarth Nicola Cc: Mark Oldridge Subject: FW: Shire Hill Proposed Entrance Dear Nicola, Please find attached plan of the proposed entrance at Shire Hill Quarry. The changes are as previously discussed: *       Take down existing and rebuild the dry stone walls either side of the entrance. *       Install one dropped kerb and replace existing with 4 lowered kerbs to increase splay access. *       Install a further drainage grip to the verge above the new wall on the western edge to catch cross-fall runoff from the entrance apron. *       Resurface with new Macadam Base Course and Surface Course where required. *       Entrance width anticipated to be 11m. I trust this is sufficient to requirements at this stage and look forward to your comments in due course. Kind regards David.
