CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT & TRAVEL PLANNING: Working In Partnership With Your Local Authority - A case study

 

Venue: Stockport College

Date: 7^th November 2008

 

An invaluable opportunity for anyone involved with capital development to learn about the legislation and the challenges facing a real-life project 

 

Planning legislation now requires a Travel Plan to be prepared and submitted as part of the requirements for all major building projects. With many institutions now embarking on key capital developments, and more and more emphasis being placed on sustainability, its vital that everyone involved in a major project understands the impacts of the planning legislation. 

 

This workshop will be based around the experiences of Stockport College as it seeks to expand into and redevelop a constrained site adjacent to its Town Centre Campus , with a project costed at almost £100 million.  

 

The workshop will examine the views of the College, local authority, English Heritage, and the local community to provide invaluable insight into the complex range of issues and challenges needed to be addressed before the scheme could proceed, including the crucial role of the Travel Plan in satisfying local authority aspirations and concerns.

• Estates Managers
