Consultation DOI Highways Email

From: Webster, Richard To: DEFA, Planning Cc: Kelly, Catherine (DOI) Subject: RE: 7 Mar 2025 weekly planning application list HDC return (to upload on the portal for each application) Date: 07 March 2025 20:19:37

Hello,

From the Planning List week beginning 7 Mar 2025 and excluding planning applications with suffix ‘CON’, ‘AIR’ and re-consultations, the following new planning applications have highway related impacts and will be subject to a separate response:

25/90230/B

The following planning applications have no significant negative impact upon the highway network in terms of highway safety, highway operation and car parking. Highway Services HDC does not oppose (DNO) the following applications. Advisory comments are applied where relevant, such as for licences to use the highway for equipment and material during works:

• 24/91380/B – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking as the garage would not increase road safety risks with the adjacent access lane as the existing rear boundary has a high wall which will be retained. A S109 highway agreement will be required for the dropped kerb footway and removing grass for vehicular access to the garage – please note that the dropped kerb would only be constructed on the straight section of footway in front of the garage so that pedestrian footway layout, drainage, manholes and utilities are not negatively impacted.

• 25/90139/C – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking as the proposed use would have a similar or less parking demand to the existing use.

25/90213/B – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking as the loss of parking on the site for the facilities would be negligible.

25/90215/B – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking subject to vehicle access, vehicle access visibility splay onto Phildraw Road, parking and turning within the site should be completed before first occupation and retained thereafter (for highway safety purposes).

25/90219/C – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to

have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking as the site is in a sustainable location in Douglas centre.

25/90224/B – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking.

25/90237/B – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking. A S109 highway agreement will be required for the proposed dropped kerb vehicular access.

25/90239/B – After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network functionality and/or parking as the site is in a sustainable location in Castletown centre and parking will be available internally within the site, subject to a condition attached to permission that the garage door must swing inwards or not encroach onto the adopted highway for the lifetime of the development.

Highway Services HDC has no interest (NHI) in:

25/90023/B 25/90193/B 25/90200/B 25/90214/B 25/90218/B 25/90220/B

• 25/90222/C

• 25/90223/B

25/90226/B 25/90228/B 25/90231/B 25/00240/LAW

25/90253/GB

Please could you upload these responses while the new planning portal is being implemented as we do not have a HDC account yet.

Kind Regards,

Richard Webster l Senior Highways Development Engineer Highway Services l Department of Infrastructure
