Good morning all. In response to “Clarification on the practicalities of the Applicant widening the road at the pinch point or laying a pavement on the Applicant’s land running parallel to the UC53 Glenmore Road, in terms of who would be responsible for maintaining the widened part of the road or the pavement, for example, would either be adopted by the Council or remain on private land.” We would note the following: 1. The carriageway to be 5.5m wide 2. Footway to be 2m wide. a. Construction depth 170mm: made up with 100mm subbase, 50mm binder course and 20mm surface course 3. Vehicular accesses to be formed with 6m radii, 90 degrees from public road. a. Access to be surfaced with bituminous material at least 2m back from road edge. b. Access to be constructed in a manner which prevents any surface water flow onto the public road i. 125 x 150mm precast concrete bullnose kerb with 20mm water check to be laid across access (ref. drg. SD08/002/RevB, attached) 4. Footways will be part of the adopted road corridor and maintained by the roads authority. The bellmouth access will be maintained by the roads authority to the front face of the bullnose kerb. We acknowledge that it is only one more dwelling house but it is the cumulative impact of development on the network traffic capacity that is the Roads Authorities main concern (and globally across the Pulpit Hill area).
