What is the Infrastructure Study?

The council has prepared infrastructure studies to accompany the preparation and implementation of the Local Plan and Local Plan Update. The main purpose of the studies is to identify the various forms of infrastructure that are required to meet growth which may come forward over the plan period - 2022/23 to 2038/2039 for the Local Plan Update.

Alongside the Study, an Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) sets out what infrastructure is likely to be needed to support the amount and distribution of housing and economic development set out within the Local Plan Update. It draws on information from the Infrastructure Study and identifies the main partners that will have a role in helping to deliver the Local Plan Update.

What types of infrastructure are considered?

Twenty-six discrete types of infrastructure were reviewed in detail for this study and they include:

  • flood defence and drainage - flood defence, surface water drainage

  • utilities - water supply and distribution, gas supply and distribution, electricity, telecommunications, sewage and wastewater treatment

  • health - NHS GP services, NHS dental services, pharmacy services, hospital services

  • education - pre-school and early years, primary and secondary schools, further and higher education

  • leisure and amenity - sports and leisure, public open space, library services, community recycling facilities (bring sites)

  • older and young person's services - older person's accommodation, services for children and families

  • emergency services

  • transportation - highways, bus services, rail services.

Can I view a copy of the Infrastructure Study?

Yes. An Infrastructure Study (2023) has been completed to support the preparation of the East Riding Local Plan Update. The Study also includes an Infrastructure Delivery Plan.

Infrastructure Study (2023) (pdf 5.5mb)

Appendix A – North of Bridlington Junction Studies (A165/B1255) (2014)
This report was prepared to support the preparation of the 2016 East Riding Local Plan. It assessed the potential impact on four junctions of the A165 and B125 arising from the development of residential sites in the north of Brislington (BRID-A, BRID-B & BRID-C).

Appendix B – B1240/Station Road Junction (Preston) Report (2014)
This report was prepared to support the preparation of the 2016 East Riding Local Plan. It assessed the potential impact on the B1240/Station Road junction in Preston arising from the development of residential sites in the village.

Appendix C – East Riding A1079 Junction Studies (2012)
This report was prepared to support the preparation of the 2016 East Riding Local Plan. It assessed the potential impact on various junctions of the A1079 arising from the proposed development sites set out in the emerging Local Plan.

Appendix D – East Hull and Holderness Junction Studies (2014)
This report was prepared to support the preparation of the 2016 East Riding Local Plan. It assessed the potential impact of new development on various junctions along the A1033/A63 and others to the east of Hull.

Appendix E – Trunk Road Highway Studies (M62/A63 East Riding) (2014)
This report was prepared to support the preparation of the 2016 East Riding Local Plan and comprises part of the Infrastructure Study. It assessed the potential impact on various junctions of the A63/M62 arising from the development of sites through the Local Plan.

Appendix F – East Riding Strategic Junction Study (2023)
These studies include modelling and analysis of the highway capacity at a number of junctions on the highway network in the East Riding. It was prepared to support the Local Plan Update (LPU). The outcome of this exercise has informed the Infrastructure Delivery Plan which highlights opportunities for funding through section 106 planning obligations or Central Government funding. The studies also aid National Highways (NH) in identifying the operational network needs of their strategic highways including the M62, A63, A1079, A614, A165, A1033 and A166.

The appendices are provided in the table below.
