Rayleigh Town Council has no significant reason to object to the content of each of the items incorporated in appendix 1 - Advice on the Design of Waste & Recyclables storage & Collection requirements.

Appendix 1 (Advice on the Design of Waste and Recyclables Storage and Collection Requirements)
Essex County Council, as the Local Highway Authority, recommends that access roads should be designed in accordance with the Essex Design Guide 2005, Urban Place Supplement 2007 and the Department for Transport's Manual for Streets 2 which allow the use of 4.8 metre minimum width roads for refuse collection vehicles. Accordingly, the following texts should be amended to reflect this situation,
Page 96, Appendix 1, Section 7, penultimate paragraph, fourth bullet (General Considerations for Refuse Collection Vehicles) - 'access roads need to be a minimum of 5 metres wide.' and,
Page 98, Appendix 1, Section 12 first paragraph (Refuse Collection Vehicle Size & Turning Area) - 'the construction of all access roads for refuse collection vehicles should be in accordance with the Department for Transport's Design Manual for Roads and Bridges.'
