Respondent: Highways England (Yorkshire & North East Team)

In broad terms, it is considered by CH2M that Highways England should support the aspirations of Policy TR5 as it is recognised that the provision of car parking within the District is a driver of modal choice. Furthermore, the policy seeks to minimise motor vehicle parking within new developments, as well as actively managing down parking levels below the standards.
As such, it is considered by CH2M that such an approach would reduce the impact of the aspirations within the Plan on the SRN.
However, these policy aspirations need to be adhered to when new developments come forward.
