RE: Birchover Quarry Nigel Proposed Road Closure Order under Section 14 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 (as amended): To Prohibit the Use of Main Street, Birchover by Traffic to Facilitate Water Main Renewal Works by Severn Trent Water Limited Thank you for your email on 20 September 2018 (with temporary street works road closure notice) advising us about the above proposed road closure to enable pipe maintenance at Main Street, Birchover. We note that the full width of the carriageway will be closed (inter-alia to HGV traffic to and from Birchover Quarry) for ten working days during the period  1st  10th October 

2018. As you know, condition 41 (Signage and Routeing of Heavy Vehicles) of the planning permission NP/DD/0715/0722 was imposed to minimise the impact on the local public highways and communities by heavy goods and other vehicles serving the site in the interests of highway and pedestrian safety and environmental amenity. I think that the route notification measures approved and implemented under condition 41 have worked well, and provided they remain in place before and after the temporary road closure then there is no issue arising in relation to compliance with the condition.  The fact that your customers will not be able to comply with the routeing instructions during the period of the road closure is clearly is a matter which is beyond the control of your company. We had discussed the possibility of alternate use of the Blockstone haul road linking Birchover Road to Lees Road (north) to avoid Stanton in Peak village. However, as confirmed, my colleague Nicola has spoken to Blockstone who have stated that they are not back on the New Pilhough Quarry site until December 2018;  and the planning permission for New Pilhough requires the haul road to be gated and locked while not in use. In any case you have expressed concern that other difficulties may arise in relation to this potential option (e.g. insurance cover). In the circumstances thank you for confirming in your email of 21 September 2018 (below) the alternative arrangements we discussed. Please also thank Steve Helliwell for his assistance on this matter which I am sure will help to minimise the impact of any additional traffic through Stanton in Peak village during this ten day period.

Steve Helliwell has been in contact with Birchover Stone Ltd. s principal customers and advised them of the road closure. He will attempt to supply their advanced needs during the week commencing 24th September. If this is not possible it has been explained that articulated vehicles should not be sent during the period of the diversion and he has endeavoured to restrict collections to two days per week. I will contact Stanton in Peak Parish Council to convey this information. Regards Nigel This email has been sent from Suon Limited or from one of its related companies.
