We have been busy recently with one of our Directors, Richard Fitter, appearing before Planning Inspectors twice in a fortnight. However, in both cases we have to question why these projects were being determined by PINS at all.

On 23rd December 2022 Somerset West and Taunton Council granted planning permission for a new Aldi store at Chip Lane, Taunton. Entran prepared the Transport Assessment and secured a positive recommendation from Somerset County Council as local highway authority.

Thanks once again to all our clients and associates who made 2022 such a successful year. It feels like everybody was flat-out all year, so lets hope we can build on that success is 2023.  We are looking forward to a few more face-to-face meetings next year and maybe a coffee or two. We hope you enjoy the festive season and we look forward to a fantastic 2023.

We were disappointed to hear that the Bath Bike Park project at Entry Hill will now not proceed. An update from Matt and Ollie at Pedal Progression confirms that a combination of site complexities and inflationary pressures have meant that the project is not financially viable for Pedal Progression or B&NES Council.

A great many people showed support and enthusiasm for the project over the last few years and the team at Pedal Progression poured huge amounts of effort and expertise into bringing forward a bike park for Bath. It would have undoubtedly been an outstanding recreational asset for the people of Bath and the surrounding area but we know Pedal Progression will continue to support grass routes mountain biking, and improve access and inclusion via their site in Bristol and we hope Entran can play a part in that.
