Your Request:

Please treat this as a Freedom of Information/Environmental Information
Regulations request.

I would like information about your council’s planning in relation to
climate action for the Council Climate Action Scorecards. This information
is most likely to be held by a planning officer or similar.

In particular, please supply me with information relating to the following
questions:

a. Has the Council approved any new*1 or expanded*2 roads or road
junctions in its area from 1st January 2019 until 1st January 2023? Please
list which ones were accepted.

*1 - The intention of this question is to understand overall increases
in road capacity, rather than recent housing developments. Please
exclude minor roads built exclusively to connect new housing to the
pre-existing road network.
*2 - An expanded road or road junction is one that has increased
capacity for motor vehicle traffic, not counting bus lanes, cycle
infrastructure, or pedestrian infrastructure. Please include roads and
junctions where new lanes have been added.

b. Has the council approved any new or expanded airport runways,
terminals, measures to increase passenger numbers or other planning
proposals that expand airport capacity in its area since 1st January 2019
until 1st January 2023? Please list which ones were accepted.

Our response:

alterations to existing highways that would include additional lanes is
