RE: Warwick District Council Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Draft Charging
Schedule Consultation
Thank you for contacting Highways England with regard to the consultation on the
revised Draft Charging Schedule for Warwick District.
Highways England has been appointed by the Secretary of State for Transport as
strategic highway company under the provisions of the Infrastructure Act 2015 and is
the highway authority, traffic authority and street authority for the Strategic Road
Network (SRN). This network is a critical national asset and as such we work to ensure
that it operates and is managed in the public interest, both in respect of current
activities and needs as well as in providing effective stewardship of its long-term
operation and integrity. In Warwick District, the A45 and A46 trunk roads and the M40
are part of the SRN.
We have reviewed the Draft Charging Schedule, and it is considered that Highways
England has no comments to provide. We would however like to continue to engage
with the Council in regular reviews of the Regulation 123 List, and with regard to the
application of CIL funds for relevant highways infrastructure projects.
If you have any questions regarding our response please do not hesitate to contact me.
