We employ around 2,000 people and have earned an enviable reputation built on the pillars of quality, service and trust. Bellway homes are designed, built and marketed by local teams operating from regional offices. House types are designed regionally as opposed to nationally. This gives Bellway the opportunity to build homes with both quality and character and still respect their local environments.

5 TECHNICAL DETAILS Technical assessments were undertaken to support the outline planning application which have been assessed by the Council. In granting planning permission for up to 294 homes on the site, the following technical details have been agreed. SCHEME BENEFITS The scheme will provide 25% affordable dwellings integrated into the development, accessible open space for new and existing residents and a highways works contribution towards future infrastructure works on the A164. DRAINAGE The site is situated within Flood Zone 1 which means that it is not considered to be at risk of flooding. Measures have been incorporated within the design of the site to ensure that its development will not increase the speed of surface water runoff, nor increase flood risk elsewhere. ECOLOGY An ecology survey has been undertaken and found no evidence of protected species within the application site. The green infrastructure included within the site layout, along with the SUDs and new tree planting will encourage and support a range of biodiversity. AMENITY AND PUBLIC PROTECTION A Construction Method Statement will be adopted to ensure that any noise from construction is within acceptable limits and mitigating measures are put into place to limit dust and dirt from the site. Appropriate separation distances between existing and proposed residential properties will be considered as part of the reserved matters application HERITAGE AND ARCHAEOLOGY There are no heritage assets within the site and the development of the site does not restrict any views of heritage assets. Kirby Homes of Rest is a local heritage asset and is located to the south west of the site. Development has been set-back from this area, and screening prevents any conflict between the proposed development and the existing building and cemetery. Any archaeological artefacts which may be found on the site will be identified, evaluated and recorded prior to development commencing on the site. SUSTAINABILITY The site is within a sustainable location and facilities within Driffield are all within walking distance of the site. These include shops, services and schools. Bridlington Road offers a direct bus route into Driffield and Bridlington, and cycle provision is also made within Bridlington Road towards Driffield town centre. In addition to being in close proximity to a range of facilities, the site will incorporate areas of public open space, an equipped play area and SuDs. OTHER BENEFITS The New Homes Bonus Scheme provides funds for areas that allow new homes to be built. East Riding of Yorkshire Council would receive a total of circa 3.8m in New Homes Bonus. The development would also support construction jobs during its build period. Following construction, residents of the new development would support Driffield s viability as a local service centre through their local spending and use of services and facilities in the town.
