Client: The Merchant Taylors’ Company Charitable Trusts
TPP was appointed by Merchant Taylors’ School to advise on transport matters relating to a Planning Appeal against a condition placed on a recent planning permission granted by the Local Planning Authority. The planning permission relates to the development of a Design and Technology Block at the school with associated facilities, a new perimeter road and remodelling of car parking provision. The condition was appealed on the basis that it did not meet the tests of Circular 11/95 and should be removed. TPP advised on the transport aspects of the appeal.
A Written Statement was prepared for submission to the Planning Inspector. It was concluded that the highway and safety concerns raised by the County Council were not valid. Therefore, the planning condition was not justified.
