Part 8: Transport related development
This section (transport related development) allows for transport operators to enjoy certain permitted development rights. These might be enjoyed by air traffic control, shipping, railways, canals, airports and many more.
As the readership of Planning Geek is unlikely to be utilising too many of these, we may not be expanding on many of these unless we feel there is a need.
The up to date legislation can be found in each section for Part 8. With a summary as required.
The fifteen sections within Part 8 are as follows:
Class A – Railway or light railway undertakings
