- Off-site requirements
mayinclude a footway along the west of Mill Lane,and east at South Walsham Roadand other improvements to the highway network as required by the Highway Authority. - Mitigation and further investigation with regards to site susceptibility to surface water flooding and any potential risk of flooding from the reservoir.

POLICY ACL3
Land at the former station yard, west of B1140, Acle (approx. 1 ha) is allocated for small scale employment use. This is likely to be within class B2 The most appropriate uses are likely to be those within use class B2 general industry, because of the constraints on the site such as access, though other employment uses will be considered.
The development will be expected to address the following specific matters The development will achieve the following site specific requirements:
- 1. Access (vehicular and pedestrian) to be from New Reedham Road.
2. Access is restricted because of the low bridge which crosses the road which serves the site, limiting the size of vehicles.3.2. There are no main sewers or water mains on site, and it will be necessary for developers to investigate the possibility of connecting to the public foul sewer or provide other suitable means.4.3. There is a metered water supply to the existing station buildings andagreement must be reached with British Rail to connect this supplyit is required that an appropriate water supply is retained.5. No easily accessible gas main exists which is suitable to serve the site. A gas supply may be able to be made available but offsite costs are likely to be relatively high.6.4. Pollution control measures should be used to ensure that no harm comes to the water environment which is within the proximity of a Major Aquifer of high vulnerability.- 5. A study to investigate land contamination
maywill be required.
Reasons
To ensure the plan is effective and justified.
