Paragraph 3 I1
England, Wales and Scotland
The authorised development must be designed in detail and carried out so that it is compatible with the preliminary scheme design shown on the works plans and engineering drawings and sections unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Secretary of State, following consultation by the undertaker with the relevant planning authority and the local highway authority on matters related to their functions, provided that the Secretary of State is satisfied that any amendments to the engineering drawings and sections showing departures from the preliminary scheme design would not give rise to any materially new or materially different environmental effects in comparison with those reported in the environmental statement.
Except where paragraph (3) applies, where cycle tracks are shown on the Rights of Way and Access Plans the authorised development must be designed so that those cycle tracks are no less than 2.5 metres in width.
Where—
there are existing physical constraints which mean that a 2.5 metre wide cycle track is not achievable; or
providing a cycle track 2.5 metres in width would give rise to any materially new or materially different environmental effects in comparison with those reported in the environmental statement,
at those locations the authorised development must be designed so that those cycle tracks are no less than 2 metres in width for as short a length as is reasonably possible.
Where amended details are approved by the Secretary of State under sub-paragraph (1), those details are deemed to be substituted for the corresponding engineering drawings and sections and the undertaker must make those amended details available in electronic form for inspection by members of the public.
