Transport Evidence Base
We note that detailed transport modelling work to support the Local Plan is ongoing and will be available to inform the publication Plan. It is unclear at this time whether the detailed transport modelling work being undertaken extends to Worcestershire’s transport network that may be impacted by the proposed Plan.
We would welcome the opportunity to meet with the Black Country authorities to better understand the scope and methodology for the detailed transport modelling work being undertaken. It may also be beneficial to establish a transport working group that meets regularly throughout the development of the Local Plan to collaboratively progress and inform the transport evidence base.

Transport and Infrastructure Policies
Within the emerging Plan, there are a number of policies relevant to transport and of interest to WCC Highways. We particularly welcome policies DEL1 - Infrastructure Provision, Tran1 - Priorities for the Development of the Transport Network, and Tran3 - Managing Transport Impacts of New Development. Having reviewed these policies in detail, we feel there may be some minor amendments that may be beneficial in positively supporting the delivery of planned growth. We look forward to discussing these with you as we further engage to progress the transport evidence base.
