The width of the access at its junction with the highway shall not be less than 3 metres (4.5 metres maximum), shall be retained at that width for 6 metres within the site and shall be provided with an appropriate dropped kerb vehicular crossing of the footway/highway verge. Reason: To ensure that vehicles can enter and leave the highway in a controlled manner in the interest of highway safety

The vehicle parking area and associated turning area shall be retained in this form at all times. Reason: To ensure that that appropriate parking and turning is provided.

The above conditions are required to ensure that the development accords with the Highway Authority’s Development Management Policies, adopted as County Council Supplementary Guidance in February 2011 and Uttlesford Local Plan Policy GEN1.

In addition under Section 161 any person, depositing anything on a highway which results in a user of the highway being injured or endangered is guilty of an offence. Therefore the applicant must ensure that no mud or detritus is taken onto the highway, such measures include provision of wheel cleaning facilities and sweeping/cleaning of the highway.
Steps should be taken to ensure that the Developer provides sufficient turning and off-loading facilities for delivery and site worker vehicles, within the limits of the site together with an adequate parking area for those employed in developing the site.
