Seek clarification on whether a red line boundary needs to be continuous or whether it can contain discrete red line bounded areas?

Advice given

A red line boundary does not need to be continuous and can have discrete red line boundaries for a/some particular elements. For highways schemes, please note the relevant section of the PA 2008 ? s22(9)(a) and (b) state that non-adjoining land does not form part of the area of development which would justify the NSIP threshold in s22(4).
