How schemes in Rugeley get decided.
Two councils involved
Cannock Chase District Council decides the planning application, but Staffordshire County Council is the highway authority and gives the highways response. We deal with both, so the evidence suits the county’s standards as well as the local plan.
What shapes schemes in Rugeley
A town by Cannock Chase, with the former power station site being turned into new homes and two railway stations. In the centre, the questions are servicing, parking and how people walk to the shops and the station. On the edges, it’s access, visibility and the main junctions.
Roads, rail and buses
The main roads are the A51, A460 and A513. There’s a railway station, so the walking and cycling route to it counts for a lot in any application.
