58 PROGRESS WITH INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING Updates since the last AMR include the following: With respect to the road network, The Highways Agency (HA) had completed two separate studies on the A45, but now plan to undertake a revised study taking into account the full stretch of the road. However the HA currently have no available funding to implement any strategic improvements. Public Transport is mainly delivered by bus companies, and is in response to extra demand or in relation to a specific development that has provided start up funding through s106 planning obligations. A business case has been made for upgrading and electrifying the Midland Main Line which would result in real benefits to the North Northamptonshire area, specifically journey times from Wellingborough, Kettering and Corby to London would be around 3 minutes quicker and wider benefits will be the reduction in carbon emissions, an increase in economic benefits and decrease in operating costs. The timescales for this, if funding can be secured, is for the Midland Main line to be fully electric from London to Sheffield by 2020. Several masterplans have been undertaken for town centres, including Raunds which was finalised in March 2011. The Irthlingborough masterplan is due to be consulted on early in 2012. The Green Infrastructure (GI) Delivery Plan will be developed with partners and published early in 2012 to guide funding streams and ensure a joined up approach to development and the provision of GI. A bid has been made to DEFRA for a Nature Improvement Area (NIA) to cover the Nene Valley from Northampton through to Peterborough. The outcome of this bid which has reached stage 2 should be known by February 2012. Several impacts have occurred in relation to education provision in North Northamptonshire. Firstly the Building Schools for the Future funding scheme has been scrapped by the Government. Secondly, the school leaving age will increase incrementally soon. The number of in term transfers into the County is at a record high, and birth rates have significantly increased over the last two years, which will have an impact on future school provision for primary and secondary schools in subsequent years. In terms of Higher Education the Tresham Corby campus has been completed and the first intake of students was in September 2011. Provision in Wellingborough is still under discussion with the relevant parties. In relation to Health care, following the changes set out by the Government, health provision will primarily be run by GP consortiums across the area. In North Northamptonshire there are two consortia - Corby Commissioning Group (covering the Borough of Corby) and the Nene Commissioning Group (covering the rest of Northamptonshire). The General Hospital in Kettering is progressing work on a new £30m wing that will comprise of a three storey extension to include a new 16 bed intensive care unit and 32 bed children’s unit; this is due for completion by summer 2012.

59 Further work is required on surface water management and this is being led by the county council. A North Northamptonshire Strategic Flood Risk Management Strategy Update is being undertaken and this should report early in 2012. Anticipated changes to the Police force due to the Comprehensive Spending Review will mean changes to the way services are provided in terms of the infrastructure required. Options will be explored through the review of the Core Strategy to ensure all standards can be met. The Fire authority, which provides a strategic fire and rescue need wider than just North Northamptonshire, has been implementing an improved fleet and lighter more efficient equipment. With the need to meet the service standards and to ensure that new developments meet their requirements a guidance document will be produced in 2012 to assist in assessing planning applications. The Cultural investment plan findings on the need for facilities along with those from the Strategic Sports Facilities Framework will inform the review of the NNCSS. The studies and any updates of these will be used as part of the evidence base for the CIL along with any SPD on development contributions that will be needed.
