Air Quality and HS2

A note from HS2:

Please see Information Paper E31, which outlines the commitments HS2 has given to manage the potential impacts of the scheme on air quality. Air quality is being monitored along the line of route.  This will include monitoring nitrogen dioxide around highways used by construction traffic and construction dust around areas of construction works.   Both of these types of monitoring will be undertaken in the LB Hillingdon. We are currently in discussion with Hillingdon Council to agree locations.

Further details on HS2’s commitments to data sharing are given in section 4.3 of the Code of Construction Practice

Re: Planning appeal updates

Hello. No-one’s complained but I’ve just noticed two things about the Planning Appeals map/list:

  • One is that it still contained decided appeals – I’ve removed them.
  • Two is that the hyperlinks I gave you on some of them didn’t work – I’ve fixed them. (The reference numbers were still okay though.)

My apologies to anyone tripped up because I failed to check the links.

Another lesson learnt.

The planning map is here, if  you’re unfamiliar with it.
