COMMENTS (REPRESENTATION) FORM
Please respond by 6pm Monday 30 September 2019. The Council considers the Local Plan is ready for examination. It is formally “publishing” the Plan to invite comments on whether you agree it meets certain tests a Government appointed independent Inspector will use to examine the Plan (see Guidance Notes overleaf). That is why it is important you use this form. It may appear technical but the structure is how the Inspector will consider comments. Using the form also allows you to register interest in taking part in the examination. All comments received will be sent to the Inspector when the plan is “submitted” for examination. Please email your completed form to us at If you can’t use email, hard copies can be sent to:
Planning Policy & Environment Team, Doncaster Council, Civic Office, Doncaster, DN1 3BU. All of the Publication documents (including this form) are available at: www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan
This form has two parts: Part A – Personal Details and Part B – Your Comments (referred to as representations)

Guidance Notes (Please read before completing form) What can I make comments on? You can comment (make representations) on any part of the Doncaster Local Plan Publication Version and its supporting documents. These include: Sustainability Appraisal, Habitat Regulations Assessment, Topic Papers and other supporting technical (evidence base) documents. The full list of documents is available at: www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan. However, this stage is really for you to say whether you think the plan is legally compliant and ‘sound’ (see below ). Do I have to use the response form? Yes please. This is because further changes to the plan are for a Planning Inspector to consider during an Examination in Public and providing responses in a consistent format is important. For this reason, all responses should use this response form. You can attach additional evidence to support your case – but please ensure it is clearly referenced and succinct. The Inspector will decide if further additional evidence is required before or during the Public Examination. For the inspector to consider your comments, you must provide your name and address with your response. Additional response forms are available online at www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan Can I submit representations on behalf of a group or neighbourhood? Yes you can. Where there are groups who share a common view on how they wish to see the plan modified, it would be
helpful for that group to send a single form that represents that view. In such cases the group should indicate how many people it is representing including a list of their names and addresses, and how the representation was agreed e.g. via a parish council/action group meeting, signing a petition, etc. It should still be submitted on this standard form with the information attached. Question 3 (below) – What does ‘legally compliant’ mean? Legally compliant means asking whether or not the plan has been prepared in line with statutory regulations, the duty to cooperate and legal procedural requirements such as the Sustainability Appraisal (SA). Details of how the plan has been prepared are set out in the published Consultation Statements and the Duty to Cooperate Statement, which can be found at: www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan Questions 4/5 (below) – What does ‘soundness’ mean? Soundness means asking whether or not it is ‘fit for purpose’ and ‘showing good judgement’. The Inspector will explore and investigate the plan against the National Planning Policy Framework’s four ‘tests of soundness’1. These are:
• Positively prepared - the Plan should be prepared so it meets Doncaster's objectively assessed needs for housing and other development, including infrastructure and business development.
• Justified – the Plan should be based on evidence, and be an appropriate strategy for the Borough when considered against other reasonable alternatives.
• Effective – the Plan should be deliverable and based on effective joint-working on cross-local authority boundary matters as evidenced in a Statement of Common Ground.
• Consistent with national policy – the plan should enable sustainable development and be consistent with the Government's National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).
Question 8 (below) – Do I need to attend the Public Examination? You can present your representation at a hearing session during the Public Examination but you should note that Inspectors do not give more weight to issues presented in person than written evidence. The Inspector will use his/her own discretion to decide who should participate at the Public Examination. All examination hearings will be open to the public.
1 Paragraph 35 of Framework: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/national-planning-policy-framework/3-plan-making
Part B Please complete this Part to make your comments. After this Publication stage, further submissions will only be
at the request of the Inspector, based on the matters and issues she/he identifies for examination.

1. Introduction
1.1 This submission has been prepared by Longwall Property on behalf of Inherent
Property Ltd in response to the consultation on the Publication version of the
Doncaster Local Plan.
1.2 Inherent Property are working with the owners of a site on Worksop Road in
Tickhill (reference 930) to promote it through the emerging Local Plan as a
potential residential development site. We have previously written to the council
regarding the site and provided a Development Statement identifying the site’s
development potential.
1.3 These comments have also been prepared with the knowledge of the owners of
the adjoining site (reference 281). Both parties have indicated a willingness to
work together to ensure the wider site can be delivered.
2. Spatial Strategy, Housing Distribution and Site Selection
2.1 The level and distribution of housing growth set out in Policy 3 of the Local Plan is
comprised of two parts. The first part, of c. 8,775 homes is described as the “local
need” element of the housing requirement and is to be distributed pro-rata
between settlements with a reasonable range of services. The remaining part of
the housing target, the “economic-led element” is intended to support economic
growth and is to be directed towards the Main Urban Area (MUA) and the Main
Towns.
2.2 The Sustainability Appraisal (SA) explains that this proposed distribution of
growth is derived from “Option 4” of the various potential growth distributions
considered. According to the SA, Option 4 “is essentially based on the principles of
concentrating development within existing urban areas (preferably on vacant or
underused sites with good transport links), whilst addressing local priorities and needs
within smaller settlements.”1
2.3 The SA goes on to say that “[i]n addition, Option 4 focusses more growth around the
cluster of villages and towns in the south west of the Borough (e.g. Finningley, Auckley
and Hayfield Green and Tickhill) where there are no known flood risk constraints.”2
2.4 In providing an explanation of the choice of Option 4 as the preferred option, the
SA specifically mentions its role in minimising the Local Plan’s dependence on
areas at risk of flooding and that “it proposes modest housing growth (up to 10%) in
ten other service towns and villages (e.g. Bawtry and Tickhill) so as to extend the
approach of meeting housing needs locally within different parts of the Borough.”3
2.5 The approach taken results in a housing target for Tickhill of 165 dwellings over
the plan period. The delivery of this number of homes in Tickhill is required both
1 Wood Environmental (August 2019) Sustainability Appraisal of the Doncaster Local Plan 2015 -
2035: Publication Version, paragraph 5.2.10
2 Ibid. para. 5.2.23 3 Ibid. para 5.2.32
to ensure that local housing need is met, and to minimise the number of homes
that are being delivered in areas of flood risk.
2.6 Whilst that is the strategic approach to the distribution of housing growth, the
actual number of dwellings that the plan allocates in each settlement deviates
significantly from the proposed strategy. Of the 18 settlements in the Service
Towns and Villages tier of the settlement hierarchy or above, only 8 have been
allocated sites to deliver a number of dwellings either within their proposed range
of housing growth, or within 20% of the target (where it is an exact figure). Just 4
of the 10 Service Towns and Villages have been allocated sites to deliver a number
of dwellings that is within 20% of their proposed targets.
2.7 For Tickhill specifically, the strategy calls for in the region of 165 dwellings to be
delivered in the town. The Local Plan allocates sites capable of accommodating
just 74 of those homes. This is justified on the basis that only a single site in the
town is suitable for development.
2.8 This is not correct.
2.9 The Site Selection report4 considers a range of potentially suitable housing
development sites in Tickhill. Many of those sites were filtered out of the selection
process due to the impact their development would have on the Green Belt.
2.10 The site at Worksop Road, Tickhill (identified as site 930 in the various reports)
was not eliminated from consideration on this basis. In fact, it was one of the sites
which was considered to have a “Moderately Strong” case for inclusion in further
site selection work based on its Green Belt function. Only two sites in the whole
borough – neither of which are in Tickhill – were in the higher “Strong” case
category which would be more suitable for release.
2.11 Of the 35 sites in this Moderately Strong category, site 930 is one of only 8 sites
considered to have strong boundaries (none of the other 7 sites are in Tickhill).
The site is also considered to only moderately perform the purposes of the Green
Belt – only 4 sites in this category weakly perform the purposes of the Green Belt.
4 Housing & Employment Site Selection Methodology & Results Report Publication Version - June 2019
It is, therefore, one of the better performing sites based on Green Belt function,
and one of the sites that is most suitable for development.
2.12 The conclusions of the Site Selection concur with that assessment and eliminate
the site for a single reason – the council consider that it is not possible to
accommodate a suitable vehicular access to the site and claim that access is only
possible to Lindrick Lane. This assessment is not correct.
2.13 We have previously provided the council with an access design for the site
prepared by Croft Transport Solutions which shows how a satisfactory access
could be provided to Worksop Road. This design can be found in the Transport
Issues report at Appendix 1.
2.14 The access requirements for a site such as this should be based on the criteria set
out in Manual for Streets. For a 30mph road, the required visibility splays would
be 2.4 metres by 43 metres. Croft TS have prepared an access design onto
Worksop Road which accommodates those requirements without the need for
any third party land.
2.15 Although the current speed limit on Worksop Road is 40mph, the 30mph zone
starts immediately past the site adjacent to the first residential properties on
Worksop Road. As part of any development of the site, it would be expected that
this 30mph zone would be extended to include the new development, broadly to
the position indicated on the Croft TS access drawing. That would also reduce
vehicle speeds – and improve traffic safety – at the Worksop Road / Lindrick Lane
junction.
2.16 Pedestrian access into the site can be provided by both linking into the existing
footway adjacent to Lindrick Lane to the east, and extending the existing footway
adjacent to Worksop Road (through site reference 281).
2.17 Therefore, and contrary to the findings of the Site Selection paper, there are no
access constraints that would prevent the development of the site, either in
isolation or in conjunction with the adjoining site (reference 281). We requested
the opportunity to discuss this proposed access design with the council, but did
not receive a response.
2.18 Nor are there are other constraints which would prevent the development of the
site. We have previously submitted a Development Statement which summarises
the main technical considerations in respect of the site. A copy of that Statement
can be found at Appendix 2.
2.19 It is clear that there are no barriers to the site’s development. It’s allocation would
help move closer to their proposed distribution of new homes – which the council
acknowledge is the distribution that is best able to ensure local housing need is
met and to minimise the amount of development on sites that are at risk of
flooding.
2.20 The Local Plan, as drafted, is therefore not sound.
2.21 Firstly, the proposed spatial distribution of new homes has not been subject to a
sustainability appraisal. While an SA has been carried out, it only considers the
proposed distribution of new homes, not the actual distribution that the Local
Plan results in. There are significant differences between the proposed and actual
distributions. The SA does not consider the actual distribution of new homes. It
does not therefore, meet the relevant legal requirements and the plan is unsound
on that basis. Nor is there any evidence that the proposed distribution takes
adequate account of the constraint to development posed by flood risk – although
the spatial distribution purports to reflect that constrain, the actual distribution of
growth based on the proposed allocations does not
2.22 Secondly, the Plan does not meet the local need for housing growth that is
identified as being required in Tickhill. It will not, therefore be effective in
delivering the strategy it purports to be trying to deliver.
2.23 Thirdly, the Plan is not justified based on the evidence. It is apparent that there is
no evidential basis for the proposed distribution of development and that the
selection of sites has not been based on the information available to the council.
Nor has the Plan been arrived at from a consideration of reasonable alternatives.
At no point have the council considered the spatial distribution that would result
from maximising development on sites which are not at risk of flooding.
2.24 Fourthly, the Plan is not consistent with national policy. While the proposed
distribution of housing growth purports to take flood risk into account, the
significant deviation from the “preferred” distribution has not maximised the
opportunity to deliver new homes in areas which are not at risk at flooding.
2.25 To ensure soundness, the council should consider to what extent sites outside of
flood zones which are not currently allocated for new homes could contribute
towards housing supply. Once those sites have been identified, consideration to
be given to what spatial distribution possibilities this would give rise too, and the
implications for sustainability of each.
3. Safeguarded Land
3.1 Paragraph 139 of the National Planning Policy Framework states that when
defining Green Belt boundaries councils should “where necessary, identify areas
of safeguarded land between the urban area and the Green Belt, in order to meet
longer-term development needs stretching well beyond the plan period.”
3.2 Despite the council recognising the constraint that the borough’s Green Belt
places on development, and the acceptance that some land should be released
from the Green Belt to facilitate development, no land has been safeguarded for
future development. The Local Plan is therefore contrary to national policy and is
unsound.
3.3 To make the Local Plan sound some safeguarded sites should be identified.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1.1 Croft have been instructed by Inherent Property to advise on the preliminary traffic and
transportation issues relating to proposals to provide a residential development on land
to the north of Lindrick Lane in Tickhill.
1.1.2 The report provides information on the traffic and transport planning aspects of the
potential development and assist the local planning authority in the positive allocation
of the site for residential purposes in the forthcoming Doncaster Local Plan.
1.1.3 Following this introduction, Section 2 provides a description of the existing site and the
potential development proposals. Section 3 provides a preliminary assessment of the
accessibility of the site by non-car modes including public transport, before Section 4
discusses the site access and traffic impact of the potential development.
1.1.4 Section 5 draws together the conclusions to this report.

Transport Issues Report - October 2018
2 DEVELOPMENT SITE AND POTENTIAL PROPOSALS
2.1 Existing Site
2.1.1 The site is located to the south of the centre of Tickhill. The site is roughly triangular in
shape and is bordered by Lindrick Lane to the south-east, the A60 Worksop Road to the
south-west and currently undeveloped land to the north.
2.2 Potential Development
2.2.1 The site is being promoted for residential development in the emerging Doncaster Local
Plan. At this stage, the proposals could accommodate around 50 residential dwellings.
2.2.2 The Council have responded to the potential allocation of the site for residential
development and stated that the reason for not proposing to currently allocate the site
for residential development relates to issues with the proposed vehicular access, as
follows:
‘Visibility problems to A60 due to design requirements in accordance with Design Manual
for Roads & Bridges – Highly unlikely to be able to meet standards. Access only achievable
to Lindrick Lane (rural – very narrow) – Carriageway improvements footways and street
lighting required.’
2.2.3 This document will demonstrate that the vehicular access will be appropriate and
suitable to serve the potential residential development and also confirm that the site is
sustainable in transport terms and will not have a material traffic impact.

Transport Issues Report - October 2018
3 NON CAR ACCESSIBILITY OF THE SITE
3.1 Introduction
3.1.1 In order to accord with the aspirations of the NPPF, any new proposals should extend the
choice in transport and secure mobility in a way that supports sustainable development.
3.1.2 New proposals should attempt to influence the mode of travel to the development in
terms of gaining a shift in modal split towards non-car modes, thus assisting in meeting
the aspirations of current national and local planning policy.
3.1.3 The accessibility of the site has been considered briefly by the following modes of
transport:
• Accessibility on foot.
• Accessibility by cycle.
• Accessibility by public transport.
3.2 Accessibility on Foot
3.2.1 It is important to create a choice of direct, safe and attractive routes between where
people live and where they need to travel in their day-to-day life.
3.2.2 This philosophy clearly encourages the opportunity to walk whatever the journey
purpose and also helps to create more active streets and a more vibrant neighbourhood.
3.2.3 An existing pedestrian footway of around 2 metres in width is located to the east of the
site on Lindrick Lane, this pedestrian footway provides linkages to the nearby facilities
in Tickhill. A new footway from the site will connect to the existing footway on Lindrick
Lane to ensure a direct and safe connection to the day to day amenities for pedestrians.

Transport Issues Report - October 2018
3.2.4 The CIHT document ‘Planning for Walking’ from 2015 states, in paragraph 2.1, that in
2012 that 79% of all journeys made in the UK of less than a mile (1.6 kilometres) are
carried out on foot.
3.2.5 Within the Institution of Highways and Transportation (IHT) document, entitled
“Guidelines for Providing for Journeys on Foot”, Table 2.2 suggests distances for
desirable, acceptable and preferred maximum walks to ‘town centres’ and ‘elsewhere’.
The ‘preferred maximum’ distances are shown below in Table 3.1.
Town Centre Elsewhere
800m 1,200m
Table 3.1 – IHT ‘Providing for Journeys on Foot’ Walk Distances
3.2.6 Reference to the 2,000 metre walk distance is also made in the now superseded Planning
Policy Guidance (PPG) Note 13 which advised that ‘walking is the most important mode
of travel at the local level and offers the greatest potential to replace short car trips,
particularly under 2km’.
3.2.7 Manual for Streets (MfS) continues the theme of the acceptability of the 2,000 metre
distance in paragraph 4.4.1. This states that ‘walkable neighbourhoods are typically
characterised by having a range of facilities within 10 minutes’ (up to about 800m) walking
distance of residential areas which residents may access comfortably on foot. However, this
is not an upper limit and PPS13 states that walking offers the greatest potential to replace
short car trips, particularly those under 2 km’.

800m 2,000m
Table 3.2 – Manual for Streets Walk Distances
3.2.9 Further evidence that people will walk further than the suggested ‘preferred maximum’
distances in the IHT ‘Providing for Journeys on Foot’ is contained in a WYG Report
entitled ‘Accessibility – How Far do People Walk and Cycle’. This report refers to National
Travel Survey (NTS) data for the UK as a whole, excluding London, that the 85th
percentile walk distance for:
• All journey purposes – 1,930 metres.
• Commuting – 2, 400 metres.
• Shopping – 1,600 metres.
• Personal business – 1,600 metres.
3.2.10 Overall, in Table 5.1, the document states that 1,950 metres is the 85th percentile
distance for walking as the main mode of travel. Table 3.3 below summarises the various
85th percentile walk distances suggested as guidelines in the WYG Study.

Table 3.3 – WYG Report/NTS Data Walk Distances
3.2.11 In summary, it is considered that the distance of 1,950 metres, or around 2 kilometres,
represents an acceptable maximum walking distance for the majority of land uses.
3.2.12 Section 3.1 of the CIHT guidance ‘Planning for Walking’ mentioned earlier in this report
provides a useful reminder of the health benefits of walking. This states that:
‘A brisk 20 minute walk each day could be enough to reduce an individual’s risk of an early
death’.
3.2.13 A 20 minute walk equates to a walking distance of around 1,600 metres.
3.2.14 A review of the proximity of local facilities has been undertaken.
3.2.15 Table 3.4 below, shows the approximate walking distance from the centre of the site to
a range of, but not all, local amenities in the vicinity of the site. The table also confirms
whether or not the particular amenity is within the ‘preferred maximum’ walk distances
using the above guideline criteria:

Tickhill Parish Rooms 1,300m 1,950m YES
Table 3.4 - Distance from Site to Local Facilities
3.2.16 As can be seen in the above table, the site is located within close proximity to a number
of local amenities including shops, schools and community facilities.
3.2.17 All of the day to day amenities are well within the ‘preferred maximum’ walk distances
described earlier in this section.
3.2.18 These will be made more accessible with the proposed improvements proposed, as
detailed earlier in this report.
3.2.19 It is therefore considered that the existing and proposed pedestrian infrastructure will
facilitate safe and direct pedestrian linkages between the site and local destinations.

Transport Issues Report - October 2018
3.3 Access by Cycle
3.3.1 An alternative mode of travel to the site could be achieved by bicycle.
3.3.2 A distance of 5 kilometres is generally accepted as a distance where cycling has the
potential to replace short car journeys. This distance equates to a journey of around 25
minutes based on a leisurely cycle speed of 12 kilometres per hour and would encompass
Harworth, Rossington and parts of Doncaster.
3.3.3 The site can therefore be considered as being accessible by cycle.
3.4 Access by Bus
3.4.1 The nearest bus stops are located adjacent to the southern corner of the site on the A60
Worksop Road. New footways connections can be provided to these stops which could
be improved as part of the proposals on site. Further stops are provided within the centre
of the village to the north-west of the site on Castlegate close to the junction with West
Gate. These are located around 700 metres from the centre of the site, around a 9 minute
walk.
3.4.2 A summary of the services available from the nearby bus stops from the site is provided
in Table 3.5 below.
Page 10
Proposed Residential Development, Land off Lindrick Lane, Tickhill
Transport Issues Report - October 2018
Table 3.5 - Existing Bus Services Operating Close to the Site
3.4.3 As can be seen from Table 3.5, the nearby bus stops to the site provide access to two
buses per hour travelling between Doncaster and Worksop as well as dedicated
secondary school bus services to Hallcross School and Edlington Comprehensive Schools
nearby.
3.4.4 It is noted that the above services provide a choice of how people travel with bus service
22 operating from around 6am to 11pm, making travel by public transport a real
alternative to travelling by car for all journey purposes.
3.4.5 In order to demonstrate the level of accessibility some example journey times by bus are
presented below Table 3.6 below.

Transport Issues Report - October 2018
Destination Duration
Doncaster town centre 22 minutes
Worksop town centre 44 minutes
Table 3.6 - Example Bus Journey Times from the Site
3.4.6 The above table demonstrates that Doncaster town centre is just a 22 minute bus
journey from the site and Worksop town centre is a 44 minute bus journey away.
3.4.7 It is therefore concluded that the site is accessible by bus.
3.5 Accessibility by Rail
3.5.1 The most accessible train station to the site is Doncaster’s main railway station, although
this falls outside the recommended 2 kilometre pedestrian catchment, it is accessible via
bus service 22, equating to a journey time of around 22 minutes.
3.5.2 Doncaster station is on the East Coast mainline and provides direct access to numerous
hourly services to Leeds, Nottingham and London for example which increases the
opportunity for residents to travel further afield by public transport.
3.5.3 This provides opportunities to travel to and from the site by rail.
3.6 Accessibility Summary
3.6.1 The proposals have been considered in terms of accessibility by non-car modes for the
potential residential development.
Page 12
Proposed Residential Development, Land off Lindrick Lane, Tickhill
Transport Issues Report - October 2018
3.6.2 The following conclusions can be drawn from this section of the Report:
• The site is accessible on foot and these provisions can be improved as part of the
works at the potential development site with a new section of footway on Lindrick
Lane.
• The site is well located to generate trips on foot and provides potential for a high
degree of linked walk trips between the site and the surrounding area.
• It has been demonstrated that the site is accessible by cycle.
• The services from the bus stops on Worksop Road, adjacent to the site, travelling
to Doncaster and Worksop, shows that the site is accessible by bus.
• The site is accessible via rail with Doncaster train station just a 22 minute bus
journey from the site, offering numerous local and regional services per hour.
3.6.3 In light of the above, it is considered the site is accessible by non-car modes and will cater
for needs of the potential development’s residents and assist in promoting a choice of
travel modes other than the private car.

4 TRAFFIC IMPACT
4.1 Introduction
4.1.1 Having established that the potential development site is accessible by modes of
transport other than the private car, the following section of this report will discuss the
potential traffic generation of the proposals as well as providing an assessment of the
general impact on the local highway network.
4.2 Vehicular Site Access
4.2.1 As detailed earlier in this report, the Council have responded to the potential allocation
of the site for residential development and stated that the reason for not proposing to
allocate the site for residential development relates to issues with the proposed vehicular
access, as follows:
‘Visibility problems to A60 due to design requirements in accordance with Design Manual
for Roads & Bridges – Highly unlikely to be able to meet standards. Access only achievable
to Lindrick Lane (rural – very narrow) – Carriageway improvements footways and street
lighting required.’
4.2.2 The site has a substantial frontage with both Lindrick Lane and the A60 Worksop Road.
it is acknowledged that the preferred location for the site access would be from the A60
Worksop Road given the current constraints on Lindrick Lane.
4.2.3 The A60 Worksop Road site frontage is currently subject to a 40mph speed limit. The
30mph speed limit starts around 100 metres north of the northern site boundary. The
proposed site access junction is proposed to be located in a reasonably central location
along the Worksop Road frontage and will have formal geometric parameters
appropriate for a residential access.
Page 14
Proposed Residential Development, Land off Lindrick Lane, Tickhill
Transport Issues Report - October 2018
4.2.4 These will include a 5.5-metre-wide carriageway, footways on both sides of the road and
10 metre radii. The visibility splays will be 2.4 metres by 43 metres onto Worksop Road
which meets with the standards contained within Manual for Streets for a 30 mph road.
4.2.5 To ensure that vehicular speeds along Worksop Road are appropriate for a 30mph road,
automatic traffic counter (ATC) speed surveys have been undertaken close to the Site
Access. These are contained in Appendix 1 and the resultant 85th percentile speeds are
summarised below:
• Northbound - 38.5 mph.
• Southbound - 37.5 mph.
4.2.6 Clearly these are speeds within the existing 40mph speed limit but aren’t quite at the
levels of 30mph. As such, it is proposed to extend the existing 30mph speed limit
southwards from its current location across the Worksop Road site frontage and to just
south of the Worksop Road/Lindrick Lane junction. In addition to this, a ‘gateway
treatment’ is proposed, the details of which can be discussed and agreed with the Council
at the time of a planning application.
4.2.7 This arrangement will ensure that the vehicular speeds along the site frontage will be
reduced to around 30mph and ensure that the proposed vehicular access arrangements
are suitable to serve the potential residential development.
4.2.8 The proposals will also provide a safety benefit for the existing Worksop Road/Lindrick
Lane crossroads junction and ensure that vehicular speeds are reduced through this
junction on the gateway to the village.
4.2.9 The potential Site Access and off site highway improvements are shown in Plan 1.
Page 15
Proposed Residential Development, Land off Lindrick Lane, Tickhill
Transport Issues Report - October 2018
4.2.10 It is therefore considered that there are no vehicular access constraints that would
prevent the site coming forward for residential development.
4.3 Potential Traffic Generation
4.3.1 In order to establish the vehicular trip rates for the potential residential use reference has
been made to the latest TRICS database. The parameters used to ascertain the vehicular
trip rates for the proposed development are as follows:
• Private Housing.
• Sites between 10 and 100 dwellings.
• Sites in Greater London and Eire excluded.
4.3.2 The full TRICS output is contained within Appendix 1 and the trip generations are
summarised in Table 4.1 below.

Weekday PM Peak 0.313 0.157 16 8
Page 16
Proposed Residential Development, Land off Lindrick Lane, Tickhill
Transport Issues Report - October 2018
4.3.3 As can be seen, the potential residential development is forecast to generate a total of
27 two-way trips during the Weekday AM and 24 two-way trips during the PM peak hour
period.
4.3.4 On that basis, the level of additional traffic that would be generated by the potential
residential development would equate to less than an additional two-way traffic
movement every two minutes during even the peak periods of a typical weekday. This
would not have a material impact on the local highway network.
4.3.5 From on site observations, the local highway network does not suffer from extensive
congestion and delay during peak hour periods. Notwithstanding this, these issues will
be dealt with in detail within a formal Transport Assessment that would accompany any
subsequent planning application at the site.
4.3.6 As part of this, potential off site mitigation will be considered and discussed with the local
highway authority, Doncaster Council, if required.
4.3.7 At this stage, there is no technical transport or highways reason to limit residential
development at this site.

5 CONCLUSIONS
5.1.1 Croft have been instructed by Inherent Property to advise on the preliminary traffic and
transportation issues relating to proposals to provide a residential development on land
to the north of Lindrick Lane in Tickhill.
5.1.2 The following conclusions have been drawn with regard to the potential residential
allocation:
• The existing and proposed pedestrian infrastructure located in the vicinity of the
site will enable safe pedestrian movement between the site and the local area.
• The site is located close to the day to day amenities within Tickhill to reduce
reliance on the private car.
• The site benefits from being located adjacent to local bus stops which provide
services that are ideally placed to cater for the needs of the new residents.
• The site can be adequately accessed and serviced in a safe and efficient manner
with the potential for the extension of the existing 30mph speed limit and
associated speed reducing measures.
• The car parking provided would adequately be able to accommodate the parking
demand likely to be generated by the proposals.
• The potential residential development will have a minimal impact on the operation
of the local highway network.
• The transport and highways issues will need to be considered in further detail at
the time of a formal planning application at the site.
5.1.3 Based on the above it is the conclusion of this Report that there are no material reasons
why the site should not be allocated in the emerging Doncaster Local Plan on highways
and transport grounds.

This section displays the trip rate results based on the selected set of surveys and the selected count type (shown just
above the table). It is split by three main columns, representing arrivals trips, departures trips, and total trips (arrivals
plus departures). Within each of these main columns are three sub-columns. These display the number of survey days
where count data is included (per time period), the average value of the selected trip rate calculation parameter (per
time period), and the trip rate result (per time period). Total trip rates (the sum of the column) are also displayed at the
foot of the table.
To obtain a trip rate, the average (mean) trip rate parameter value (TRP) is first calculated for all selected survey days
that have count data available for the stated time period. The average (mean) number of arrivals, departures or totals
(whichever applies) is also calculated (COUNT) for all selected survey days that have count data available for the stated
time period. Then, the average count is divided by the average trip rate parameter value, and multiplied by the stated
calculation factor (shown just above the table and abbreviated here as FACT). So, the method is: COUNT/TRP*FACT. Trip
rates are then rounded to 3 decimal places.

This section displays the trip rate results based on the selected set of surveys and the selected count type (shown just
above the table). It is split by three main columns, representing arrivals trips, departures trips, and total trips (arrivals
plus departures). Within each of these main columns are three sub-columns. These display the number of survey days
where count data is included (per time period), the average value of the selected trip rate calculation parameter (per
time period), and the trip rate result (per time period). Total trip rates (the sum of the column) are also displayed at
the foot of the table.
To obtain a trip rate, the average (mean) trip rate parameter value (TRP) is first calculated for all selected survey days
that have count data available for the stated time period. The average (mean) number of arrivals, departures or totals
(whichever applies) is also calculated (COUNT) for all selected survey days that have count data available for the
stated time period. Then, the average count is divided by the average trip rate parameter value, and multiplied by the
stated calculation factor (shown just above the table and abbreviated here as FACT). So, the method is:
COUNT/TRP*FACT. Trip rates are then rounded to 3 decimal places.

Introduction
This section explains the purpose of the document, and the site to which it relates.
4
This vision document has been prepared by Longwall Property Limited on behalf of Inherent Property, who are promoting a site between Worksop Road and Lindrick Lane for residential development through the emerging Doncaster Local Plan. The site is capable of providing a range of attractive family homes benefiting from the highest standards of design and layout. It is envisioned that the site would be developed for between 30 and 35 new homes, with an area of new public open space close to the junction of Worksop Road and Lindrick Lane.
This vision document presents a thorough analysis of the site context and the technical considerations for developing the site. A range of technical assessments have been used as the basis for identifying constraints and opportunities, in order to develop a concept design that complements the characteristics and valued aspects of the site and the surrounding area.
It also includes analysis of the planning policy context for the site.
Introduction
5
Approximate site boundarySite shown edged in red
6
The site is located to the south of Tickhill, approximately 900 metres from the village centre. The triangular-shaped site is bound by Worksop Road to the west, Lindrick Lane to the east and existing residential properties off Lindrick Close to the north.
The site comprises approximately 1.25 hectaresof grassland, bordered by hedgerows and trees.
The site is generally flat but sits slightly below the level of Worksop Road to the west.

Policy analysis
This section includes an overview of the planning policy that is relevant to the site, including an assessment of Green Belt function and accessibility.
8
The site is presently designated as Green Belt in the adopted development plan. However, Doncaster Council is working to prepare a new Local Plan that will guide the future development of the area up to 2032. This will replace the existing Core Strategy and allocate specific sites for development.
As part of the production of the new Local Plan, the council has published an assessment of objectively assessed housing need, and assessed the supply of housing land from within the urban areas including brownfield sites. It is apparent that the housing needs of the area cannot be met without releasing land from the Green Belt. A comprehensive Green Belt review is necessary.
A key consideration when reviewing Green Belt boundaries is the need to promote sustainable patterns of development. This includes having regard to all of the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework (‘the Framework’), including meeting housing and employment land needs.
The first stage of this process is to identify which areas of land do not contribute to the Green Belt's purpose.
The Framework identifies the following five functions of Green Belt:
1. To check the unrestricted sprawl of large built up areas;
2. To prevent neighbouring towns merging into one another;
3. To assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment;
4. To preserve the setting and special character of historic towns; and
5. To assist in urban regeneration, by encouraging the recycling of derelict and other urban land.
The Council has published a Green Belt Assessment dated February 2016, undertaken by consultants Arup. The site is assessed as part of a larger tract of land to the south of Tickhill (referred to as Tickhill 7). This parcel is found to perform a Green Belt function, especially with regards to functions three and four.
However, the site is clearly of a very different character to the wider Tickhill 7 parcel, and is neither functionally nor visually part of that area. We consider that if the site is assessed individually and on its own merits, excluding the wider land to the east, it would be found to make a ‘weak' contribution to the Green Belt.
The site is surrounded on all three sides by permanent built development in the form of road infrastructure and residential development. Natural screening in the form of hedgerows and trees provides defensible boundaries and a strong sense of containment. This could be supplemented through a comprehensive landscaping scheme.
The site makes no contribution to preventing towns merging into one another, and there would be no physical or perceived closing of the gap between towns if the site were to be developed.
The release of this site from the Green Belt would also not cause harm to the setting and special character of Tickhill. Indeed, it does not contribute to views into or out of the historic core of the village.
The site is therefore being promoted for release from the Green Belt, to assist the borough in meeting the identified shortfall in its housing land requirements.
Green Belt Assessment

Technical considerations
This section includes an overview of the various technical considerations which could influence the suitability of the site for development.
10
Highways and accessibility
The site has been assessed from a highways and accessibility perspective by Croft Transport Solutions.
It has an extensive frontage to Worksop Road, so a suitable vehicular access to the site can be achieved in a number of potential locations. The plan on the next page shows an access design which would include appropriate visibility splays to ensure compliance with Manual for Streets 2.
All of the land required to form the access falls within either the site boundary or the current limits of the adopted highway.
The site would generate a modest number of additional vehicular trips onto the local highway network, equivalent to approximately one vehicle movement every three minutes in the AM and PM peaks.
There are no particular capacity constraints to the local highway network although this would need to be demonstrated in detail within a Transport Assessment to accompany any formal planning application for this site.
The site is close to a good range of shops, employment opportunities, education provision and other facilities and services. These include
a Spar convenience store, Lloyds Pharmacist, a Post Office and a Primary School which are all within approximately 1km of the site.
An existing public footpath adjoins Worksop Road to the west of the site, providing access to those facilities on foot.
The site is accessible by public transport with a half-hourly bus service serving a stop adjacent to the site on Worksop Road on weekdays. These services connect the site to the centres of both Doncaster and Worksop. This also provides access to Doncaster train station, which sits on the East Coast mainline and provides direct services to a range of locations including York, Leeds, Hull and London Kings Cross.
There is therefore no reason in highways terms why the site could not be developed.
Ecology
The site is presently used for agricultural purposes and largely comprises semi-improved grassland that is likely to be species poor.
The main features of ecological value within the site are likely to be the existing trees and hedgerows which mark the site's boundaries, and a hedgerow which crosses the centre of the site. It will be possible to retain these features
as part of any development, save for the removal of a short section of hedgerow in order to form the site access. This could be mitigated through reinforcement of the hedgerow on those parts of the boundary where it is currently largely absent.
As well as retaining existing trees and hedgerows, landscape planting associated with the new development could include native species increasing the ecological value of the site. Any ponds associated with the site's surface water drainage scheme could also be designed in a manner that maximised their benefit for wildlife.
No statutorily protected or non-statutorily protected sites exist on the site or immediately adjacent to the site. No statutorily protected sites exist within 2km of the site. The nearest non-statutorily protected sites are the Tickhill Castle Local Wildlife Site, around 600m to the east, and the Friars Lane (Hedgerows) Local Wildlife Site around 200m to the north on the opposite side of Worksop Road. Neither would be effected by the proposed development.
There are therefore no ecological reasons why the site should not be developed.
Technical Considerations
11
12
Ground Conditions
The site is greenfield and is not known to be subject to any contamination that would preclude development.
Information from the Coal Authority indicate that the site is not impacted by any historic mine workings.
Flood Risk and Drainage
The site is located within Flood Zone 1 where the risk of flooding is considered to be low.
Any development of the site would incorporate a sustainable drainage system ('SuDS'). This would be intended to limit flow to the greenfield run-off rate plus an allowance for climate change, so as not to increase the risk of flooding either on the site or elsewhere.
As development would increase the impermeable area of the site, it is likely that storm water will need attenuating as part of any scheme. That could be done by way of a storage pond, which could be designed in such a way as to also provide ecological benefits. Additional SuDS features such as rainwater harvesting and permeable paving could be incorporated into the scheme at detailed design stage.
Surface water would be discharged in
accordance with the following SuDS hierarchy:
1. Into the ground (via infiltration).2. Into a watercourse.3. Into a surface water sewer.4. Into a combined sewer.
Infiltration may be a technically acceptable solution subject to further investigations of ground conditions. There are no existing watercourses in the immediate vicinity of the site, although there is a surface water sewer in Lindrick Close to the site's northern boundary, which could provide a suitable connection.
Further investigation is required to identify the exact point of discharge for surface water drainage. However, it is clear that the site can be satisfactorily drained.
There are therefore no flood risk or drainage reasons why the site should not be developed.
Heritage
The site falls outside the Tickhill Conservation Area and is separated from its boundary by existing development on both Lindrick Close and Worksop Road.
Tickhill Castle, a Scheduled Monument, is some 600m to the east of the site. The site is neither visible from the Castle (or vice versa) nor forms
part of its setting.
There are therefore no heritage constraints which would prevent the development of the site.
Services
Searches of the main utilities providers have been carried out. These have confirmed that all main services are available in this locality, and that connections can be made to the site.
Landscape and Visual Impact
The site is an agricultural field located between the current edge of the urban area, Worksop Road and Lindrick Lane. It has an edge of settlement character and is contained by roads on all but one boundary.
Hedgerows border the land to all sides, interspersed with a number of large trees mainly to the Lindrick Lane boundary. The western boundary includes a stone wall which is typical of the area, but is overgrown by vegetation. These features provide defensible boundaries and a strong sense of containment. This could be supplemented through a comprehensive landscaping scheme.
There are no public footpaths through the site or immediately adjacent to it. As the photos to the right show, the site is not visually prominent,
13
with views largely limited to close range views from Worksop Road, Lindrick Lane and Lindrick Close.
The development of any greenfield site will inevitably result in a change to the landscape character. It is the impact of that change which needs to be considered.
In this case, the development of the site would not be incongruous in the location and setting at the edge of the settlement as the site is located between existing development and roads.
The site would retain its key character elements of hedgerows, hedgerow trees and walls, maintaining much of the visual screening already afforded the site. There is little visual relationship between the wider landscape and the site due to the built form and intervening vegetation, which all limit views directly into the site.
There are therefore no landscape or visual impact reasons why the site should not be developed.

Design concept
This section explains how the site context was analysed and a design concept developed.
15
In order to prepare a design concept plan for the site showing how it could be developed, a detailed assessment of the constraints and opportunities presented by the site has been carried out.
The site is located on the southern edge of Tickhill between Worksop Road and Lindrick Lane. The site itself is triangular in shape and is generally flat. Along the Worksop Road boundary the site is at a slightly lower level than the road.
The northern boundary of the site adjoins the residential street of Lindrick Close which, at that point, is typified by bungalows The remaining two boundaries face open countryside.
The constraints and opportunities which have been identified are summarised on the plan on the next page.
Constraints
• Vehicular Access point on to Worksop Road.• Hedgerows around and crossing the site.• Existing dwellings to the northern boundary.
Opportunities
• Retention of trees and hedgerows to enhance the site.
• Potential to front Worksop Road and continue existing built frontage.
• Potential to maximise views out of the site towards the open countryside.
• Opportunity to create new area of open space at Lindrick Lane/Worksop Road junction.
Constraints and Opportunities

17
The design principles shown on the previous page indicate how the site could be developed in a way that works with the constraints and maximises the opportunities.
Access and Layout
The vehicular access point is located to the western site boundary on Worksop Road.
From this point the access road swings into the centre of the site, piercing the central hedegrow in a single location, but providing access for residential properties to the whole site.
Residential Layout
The residential layout will likely consist of two distinct parcels, either side of the central hedgerow, which would form a green corridor through the site.
Wherever possible residential properties will face outwards from the site to maximise views, best address the open countryside and continue the built frontage on Worksop Road. This will also allow the maximum stand-off from the boundary hedgerow to be provided.
Homes would be predominantly detached units with some semi-detached in keeping with the character of the surrounding area. Bungalows
are also likely to form part of the mix near Lindrick Close. This also helps ensure the scheme is of a density which reflects its location on the edge of the urban area.
New homes adjacent to existing dwellings to the north of the site will be positioned so as to maximise privacy for those existing residents.
Landscape and Open Space With the exception of forming the new access road all the existing trees and hedgerows are proposed to be retained within and around the site boundary.
Residential dwellings and roads would be positioned at a respectful distance from the retained features and it is proposed to enhance the existing landscaping with additional trees and planting to help embed the site into its surroundings.
A new area of open space could be delivered to the south of the site, at the junction of Worksop Road and Lindrick Lane. As well as providing usable space for future residents this area is intended to contribute to a sense of arrival and provide a strong gateway feel to those approaching Tickhill along Worksop Road.
Materials
In keeping with the site's location at the entrance to the village, it is likely that the development would utilise a high-quality palette of materials, including reconstituted stone facing materials and slate-effect roof tiles, in a similar style to the image shown on the next page.

Conclusion
This section summarises the contents of this document and considers the suitability of the site for residential development.
20
The land between Worksop Road and Lindrick Lane provides an opportunity to address the significant need for housing in Doncaster and, in particular, Tickhill.
Doncaster is working to prepare a new Local Plan that will guide the future development of both areas up to 2032. It is apparent that the housing needs of the area cannot be met without releasing land from the Green Belt. A comprehensive Green Belt review is necessary.
The release of this site from the Green Belt would not compromise the purposes of the Green Belt outlined in the Framework. The site is surrounded on three sides by permanent built development in the form of road infrastructure and residential development, while natural screening in the form of hedgerows and trees provides defensible boundaries and a strong sense of containment.
The site makes no contribution to preventing towns merging into one another, and its development would not cause harm to the setting and special character of the village.
An investigation of the technical considerations effecting the site confirms that the it is suitable for development, and that a development would be achievable.
The site is being actively promoted by Inherent Property who have significant experience of delivering sites of this nature. It is therefore available for development.
The design principles have been developed following a review of the site constraints and opportunities. They demonstrate that the site can accommodate 30-35 new homes, including affordable housing. It provides for a new area of public open space, and the retention of key features such as walls, trees and hedgerows.
The provision of high-quality homes on this site would boost housing supply, improve housing affordability and choice, generate jobs at the construction stage and increase spending in the local economy throughout the lifetime of the development.
To conclude, the site is therefore a sustainable location for the development of a modest number of high-quality homes. It would provide an attractive living environment, integrate well with the existing settlement pattern and contribute to meeting the identified development needs of the area.
The site is suitable for development, development would be achievable and the site is available for development.
It represents a logical, sustainable choice for delivering a high-quality development that can make a meaningful contribution to housing need in both Tickhill and Doncaster.
