Site constraints 3

National infrastructure project 420 m away: Dogger Bank Creyke Beck
The site is 420 m from the project boundary. Generating station, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted. Also within 2 km: Peartree Hill Solar Farm (decided, 423 m); Hornsea Project Four Offshore Wind Farm (decided, 848 m); Dogger Bank South Offshore Wind Farms (decided, 1555 m); Dogger Bank D Wind Farm (at pre-application, 34 m); Clean Air Solar Farm (at pre-application, 407 m); North Humber to High Marnham (at pre-application, 859 m); East Coast Hydrogen Humber Pipeline (at pre-application, 1283 m); Continental Link Multi-Purpose Interconnector (withdrawn, 1307 m).
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.
