Guidelines for Development Proposals in Northern Ireland

The Department for Regional Development together with the Planning Service of the Department of the Environment has published in final form Transport Assessment Guidelines for Development Proposals in Northern Ireland. This follows consultation on the draft document.

In February 2005 the Planning Service published Planning Policy Statement (PPS) 3 (Revised) – ‘Access, movement and Parking’ in a joint launch with the Department for Regional Development (DRD) who published Planning Policy Statement 13 – ‘Transportation and Land Use’ .

Both Departments also took the opportunity afforded by the publication of the PPSs to issue jointly prepared draft Guidelines on Transport Assessment for public consultation. The policy context for the guidelines is provided by the above PPSs. It is the objective of the guidelines to assist in the preparation of Transport Assessments for development proposals in Northern Ireland.
