Site constraints 2

National infrastructure project 957 m away: Norwich to Tilbury

The site is 957 m from the project boundary. Electricity line, examination closed, recommendation due.

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.
