This final version of the Construction Traffic Management Plan should address the following points; - Aside from the inclusion of one plan in the visuals produced for the public exhibition on 5th July it does not appear that any substantive stakeholder engagement has been undertaken in respect of the CTMP. As an absolute minimum the occupiers of the immediately surrounding properties should have been engaged with specifically on the CTMP prior to the submission of the final CTMP; - Q12 - A clearer definition is required for what constitutes 'small plant'. Given the constraints of the archway it is considered appropriate that this definition includes maximum dimensions.
