National Highways has been appointed by the Secretary of State for Transport as a strategic highway company and is the highway authority, traffic authority and street authority for the Strategic Road Network (SRN). In relation to the Cottam Solar Project, our principal interest is in safeguarding the A1, M180 and A47 trunk roads. Although the SRN is outside the Order Limits, it is understood that construction traffic will be routed via the SRN. As such, we reserve the right to make written representations if an impact of construction traffic on the SRN is identified, or if changes to the application are made which result in other impacts to the SRN.
