Respondent: National Highways

Paragraph 5.22 of the IDP - the principle of the approach towards transport evidence has been agreed between National Highways and Staffordshire County Council but there remain technical details to discuss and agree. Highways England is committed to ongoing engagement with South Staffordshire Council and the local highways authority in order to finalise the technical details of this methodology.

Note that the document has been updated to reflect the April 2022 decision to grant the DCO for the M54-M6 link road. National Highways will enter into Section 278 arrangements with developers to deliver specific necessary improvement schemes on the SRN. This provides certainty of delivery.
