Pre Examination Comments A46 Newark Bypass Winthorpe Family Settlement 1990 The following comments are made on behalf of the landowners of title number NT448560. 1. It would be useful for justification to be provided regarding the extent of their land that is required on the north side of the A46. From reviewing the working plans, it appears that there will be a large amount of land taken to create embankments and floodplains with further land taken for a new pedestrian right of way. In order to reduce the amount of land required, it would be prudent to create the pedestrian right of way along the top of the embankment. Please provide justification as to why this has not been considered. 2. The land being acquired is parkland that significantly contributes to the setting and character of Winthorpe. Please can justification be provided as to why no land is being acquired on the south side of the A46 as this would minimise the impact on the parkland. 3. The land located on the west side of the A1 is being acquired as a whole, however the proposed works do not cover the full extent of the land. Therefore, we would be willing to provide this land under licence on a temporary basis to allow future use of the remaining parcel of land once the new road has been constructed. The design should allow for access to be provided to this retained parcel of land. 4. There has been significant interest from developers for both commercial and residential opportunities on this land which will need to be taken into consideration when acquiring this land. 5. Please provide clarity on ‘limits of deviation of drainage assets’. For example will this be below ground works?
