I would appreciate your response regarding the following matters related to the Arborfield Green development:
1. Road Adoption Schedule for Arborfield Green Development:
a) Please provide the agreed schedule for Wokingham Borough Council’s adoption of roads within the Arborfield Green development, with a particular focus on the Waterman’s View area.
b) Could you confirm the earliest anticipated adoption date?
c) Please clarify the reasons for the delay in adoption over the past seven years since Waterman’s View was constructed.
2. Construction Permit for the New Development across Waterman’s View:
a) Please provide details of the construction permit granted for the development opposite Waterman’s View, on the other side of Biggs Lane.
b) Does this permit include allowances for weekend construction work? If so, what types of work are permitted?
c) How does Wokingham Borough Council monitor adherence to these permissions, and what actions are taken if the conditions are breached?
3. Speed Monitoring and Safety Measures on Biggs Lane:
a) Has Wokingham Borough Council conducted any assessment or taken any measures to monitor or control vehicle speeds on Biggs Lane between Oak Drive and Commonfield Lane?
b) Given that the posted speed limit is 30 mph but is frequently exceeded, what steps (if any) have been considered or implemented to mitigate the risk to pedestrians, particularly schoolchildren crossing at Waterman’s View to reach Bohunt Wokingham School via Hazebrouck Meadows?
c) Has Wokingham Borough Council conducted any risk assessment that led to the decision not to install a zebra crossing or traffic lights at this crossing point? If so, could you provide the findings of this assessment?
