How schemes in Driffield get decided.
One council for planning and highways
East Riding of Yorkshire Council handles both the planning application and the highways response, so we talk to its highways team early and give the case officer a clear answer.
What shapes schemes in Driffield
A market town on the Hull to Scarborough line, where the A164, A166 and A614 meet, serving a large farming area. In the centre, the questions are usually servicing, parking and narrow streets. On the edges, it’s access, visibility and a safe walking route into town.
Roads, rail and buses
The main roads are the A164, A166 and A614. There’s a railway station, so the walking and cycling route to it counts for a lot in any application.
