6 February 2013 Mr James Harrison Burbage Realty, Conduit House, 65 St Giles Street, Northampton, NN1 1JF Our Ref: M1J19 SOBJ03 Your Ref: PRA/SEF/1905b Dear Sir, M1 JUNCTION 19 IMPROVEMENT We refer to the meeting held on 23 January 2013 regarding objections raised by Mr Paul Allen of Bidwells, representing the Grindal family in their letter of 19 May 2010. In response to the topics discussed at the meeting, we can provide the following updates: Bridleway Alternatives We can confirm that the appraisals and costing of the Scheme Bridleway and Bridleway Alternatives 1 and 2 are currently on-going. We will contact you separately when these appraisals have reached a conclusion. Leicestershire County Council (LCC) has confirmed that bridleways which are fenced on both sides should have a minimum width of 5 metres (including 1.0 metre verges on both sides). Details of minimum width requirements can be found in the attached document titled ‘Leicestershire County Council: Development and Public Rights of Way – August 2011’. Location of Pond DP3 A review of the location of Pond DP3 has been undertaken. It has not been possible to re-locate the pond in the location you suggested, due to the presence of a raw water main and due to conflict with the River Avon flood plain. Pond DP3 could be relocated as per the attached plan (WD/B0531000/B/WD/073), however the relocation of this pond would be subject to your agreement and the withdrawal of your objection regarding its location. Tea Room / Farm Shop The table below illustrates the number of vehicles which currently travel past your Farm Shop and Tea Room and which are forecast to travel past the businesses during construction and in the Opening (2017) and Design (2032) Years.
Vehicles per day (2-way) Currently 1300 During Construction 1900 Opening Year (With Scheme) 1500 Opening Year (Without Scheme) 1700 Design Year (With Scheme) 1500 Design Year (Without Scheme) 2100 The reason for the higher flow ‘During Construction’, when compared to current and opening year, is that the vast majority of traffic to/from Catthorpe will have to pass the farm shop once the access to Junction 19 is severed. Advice has been sought from LCC and from colleagues in the Highways Agency in relation to the provision of temporary signs for the Tea Room and Farm Shop during construction of the Scheme, and permanent signs on the A5 following construction of the scheme. We will advise you separately when we have this advice. Access for Farm Vehicles The feasibility of providing an improved farm track suitable for a combine harvester along Bridleway X13 and the track to the south of Old Barn Farm is currently being appraised. An alternative option of providing upgrades at Station Road Junction in Catthorpe Village has been discussed with LCC. We will contact you under separate cover when the feasibility of these options and discussions with LCC have reached a conclusion. As requested, copies of the draft Compulsory Purchase Order highlighting temporary land take from the Grindal Family land have been sent by Skanska under a separate cover. Accommodation Works As requested, the Soil Resource Statement has been forwarded to you by Ted Rogers under separate cover. Programme Dates – Severance of Local Road Network The phasing of the scheme would close the existing Rugby Road between Catthorpe and Swinford in Phase 6C of the Traffic Management Plan. It is planned that the closure would occur some 19 months from the start of construction, resulting in a closure of 18 months. Traffic between Catthorpe and Swinford would use a diversion via Shawell during this period.
