Decision

Authorisation given to extend the completion
date of the Agreement under Section 278 of the Highways Act 1980
for the residential development off Falkland Way, Barton Upon
Humber, (Wren), from 30 March 2025 to 30 March 2027 without
amendment to the amount of supporting bond.

Reasons for the decision

The completed S278 agreement supports
development and permits the Council to adopt the roads, footways,
verges, swales, and highway drainage once the development has been
completed to the council’s requirements.

The S278 agreement can only legally last for two years and requires
an extension of time if works aren’t complete at the end of
the two year period. This development is not yet completed, and the
agreement needs renewing.
