Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? No
The modified Plan has downgraded the need to take full and early
account of the largest transport infrastructure project to affect the
District since the building of the M40, namely the Oxford - Cambridge
Expressway. No longer does the Council anticipate the need for an early
review, but rather defers consideration to some "future Local Plan
update", which appears to may not even be necessary. This major
strategic weakness in the modified Plan indicates the inadequacy of the
Council's thinking.
Full remedial action to correct the errors and gaps in the transport evidence base and modelling,
followed by a revised set of proposals including funding plans and timetable, with public consultation
on these modifications.
