Traffic Report, Baswich - Weeping Cross area.
The Baswich Lane/Porlock Avenue junction has also been assessed. Whilst the junction would operate within capacity under the 2016 scenarios, it would operate significantly over capacity in 2031 both with and without development.
The identification of potential capacity issues by 2031 highlight to both Stafford BC and SCC potential future issues on the network, and that retaining the protected routes [EDR] and there developments will be required within the time period of the Plan for Stafford.
So Stafford BC ignore this advice, delete sections of the EDR and score an own Goal. Rather than preventing uncontrolled planning applications, developers apply to build on the now Un-protected route.
