A614/A6097 Planning

Planning permission was granted for each of the six junction improvements on 27 September 2022

Via is leading this major improvement scheme on behalf of Nottinghamshire County Council and is acting as the agent for the planning process.  Planning applications were submitted for each of the junction improvements at the end of February 2022. The planning applications have been prepared as part of a package to allow the cumulative impacts of the development at each junction to be considered.  The planning submission is supported by  an overarching planning statement, a strategic Transport Assessment, and an Environmental Statement.

Because the improvement scheme at Ollerton is in close proximity to a SSSI (Site of Specific Scientific Interest), a decision was made to undertake a voluntary Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and submit an Environmental Statement.  This process included consultation with relevant statutory consultees to understand the issues to be address in the EIA.

The next step in the process is a period of public consultation on the planning applications and consideration of all of the relevant issues before the application will be decided by the Council’s Planning Committee.  You can view the planning application for each junction and make comments by following the links below:
