? Potential access requiring mitigation

? Potential capacity problem requiring mitigation

The site can at present only be reached from the A1 Great North Road southbound carriageway. There may be safety concerns regarding the proposed access point onto a busy dual carriageway. There is a Highways England scheme to improve the A428 between Black Cat and Caxton Gibbet that will affect the current site, and it appears future site access will instead be onto a new 'service road' as opposed to directly onto the A1. There appears to be no bus stop facilities in the near vicinity of the site. The site lacks accessibility to footways and there is no provision for cyclists in the immediate vicinity. The roundabout would require traffic modelling with all developments included in order to ascertain whether it has the capacity for further loading of traffic generated by the development. The new adoptable roads must be designed to commercial specification as for an industrial road. There appear to be no bus stop facilities in the near vicinity of the site, however Bedford Road is a bus route and this service should be considered for extension into the site to provide good accessibility for public transport. There is no provision for cyclists, and given the scale of development then consideration for satisfactory facilities for cyclists should be given and identified in the TA, however opportunities may be limited.

Nothing chosen

Part of the site falls within the boundary of a MSA.

The site is not suitable or available. Much is liable to flooding and the remainder is to be required to enable the Black Cat roadworks.
