6 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 1 Introduction 1.1 Mayer Brown Limited was commissioned by ERM on behalf of Keadby Developments Limited in April 2015 to prepare a Transport Assessment as part of the Environmental Statement for the proposed Keadby II power station (henceforth the Proposed Development ). 1.2 In 1993, consent was granted for a new gas power station at Keadby II. The consent was implemented through construction of a new access road; however the power station was not built. Since then, there have been changes to the proposed development, not least because technology has moved on significantly. As the 1993 consent was commenced, the power station does not need a completely new consent, but will require an application to vary the consent under section 36c of the Electricity Act. To support this variation application, the project team needs to demonstrate that the new proposals do not result in any material change to environmental effects. This report sets out the transport planning impacts of the proposal. Further consideration is given to transport impacts within Chapter 12 of the Environmental Statement. 1.3 A location plan showing the site within local context is included in Figure 1.1, which is included in Appendix A. 1.4 The site is adjacent to the existing Keadby I power station, which was constructed in the 1990s. Keadby I power station was commissioned in 1996 and, apart from the period of March 2012 to September 2015, has been available for commercial operation with a capacity of 735MW. The two power stations will operate alongside each other, although it is likely that Keadby I will be closed during the lifetime of the Proposed Development. To ensure a robust assessment, this document considers the two power stations operating at the same time. 1.5 The Proposed Development is expected to have 18 additional members of staff, over and above those working in Keadby I power station, who will be split over fourteen shifts to cover 24/7 operation. As a result, the number of new staff on-site at any one time is likely to be low. 1.6 Pre-application discussions and scoping have taken place with North Lincolnshire Council as the local highway authority, and copies of the correspondence are included in Appendix B. Key issues that need to be addressed/reviewed within this Transport Assessment have been agreed as: Page 1

7 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment i) Review of site location and composition; ii) Assessment of the local highway network; iii) Site accessibility and opportunities for sustainable travel during operational phase; iv) Review of proposed site development in terms of access, internal layout and parking; v) Forecast operational trip generation; vi) Construction phase impact. 1.7 A site visit was undertaken by Mayer Brown on Thursday 14 th May The highway officer, Louisa Simpson, from also attended this site visit, which involved an escorted trip around the site of the existing and future power stations, as well as along the construction traffic routes, including the highway links to be used for abnormal loads.

8 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 2 Site Description Site location 2.1 The site for the Proposed Development is located immediately to the west of the existing Keadby I gas power station. This is sited north of the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation Canal, within the village of Keadby. 2.2 The site is bounded by the Keadby Wind Farm, also operated by SSE, to the north and south, with disused land to the west formerly used for tipping of waste from the former coal powered station that was located in the vicinity. There are residential properties along the B1392 to the east and along Chapel Lane to the northeast. 2.3 Keadby I power station was commissioned in 1996 and, apart from the period of March 2012 to September 2015, has been available for commercial operation with a capacity of 735MW. Existing site arrangement 2.4 The main site entrance is a priority junction from the B1392. This leads to a two lane single carriageway into the site, with a footway on the southern side. The access road leads to the staff car park and then to the security gatehouse. Only permitted vehicles can travel beyond the security gatehouse. 2.5 There is a secondary entrance at the western end of the site, off Chapel Lane. At present this is manned, as the entrance is used by staff involved with the maintenance of the existing power station. 2.6 The secondary entrance also gives access towards the private roads that run along the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation, which are used by SSE and National Grid, and link towards Ealand village along Bonnyhale Road and the A18 via the recently constructed North Pilfrey Bridge. These routes will be used for construction traffic during the building phase of the Proposed Development. Parking 2.7 There is an existing staff and visitor car park located outside the main security gates. This car park has a total of 94 spaces, of which three are disabled spaces. At 11am on the day of the site visit, 36 of these spaces were in use by staff and visitors. 2.8 Additional parking spaces are provided around the site for operational uses. Page 3

9 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment Existing staffing 2.9 There are currently 18 members of staff working on the site, who generally work office hours starting between 07:30 and 08:30 and ending between 16:00 and 17:30. Additionally, there are 12 employees on an embedded site who are based at Keadby but manage other locations, and therefore are not at Keadby full time, and a small number of contractors maintaining Keadby I prior to its recommissioning When Keadby I is fully operational, there is a total of 54 employees working on the power station itself. These staff members work as six shift teams across two shifts of 07:00 to 19:00 and 07:00 to 19:00. There are a maximum of 25 power station employees working the day shift and just three people working on the night shift. These numbers are additional to those working in the office and embedded site Table 2.1 sets out a summary of existing staffing, including numbers required to operate Keadby I. Office staff Keadby I power station staff Total number 30 including embedded staff employed managing other sites 54 Typical hours 09:00-17:00 Shifts: 07:00-19:00, 19:00-07:00 Maximum number on site at any one time day Maximum number on site at any one time - night 2 (security staff) 3 Table 2.1: Staffing numbers at Keadby I power station Page 4

10 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 3 Local Highway Network Local highway network 3.1 The main site access is taken from the B1392, named Station Road in the vicinity of the site. This is a two lane single carriageway that links the A18 at Keadby to the A161 at Eastoft, subject to a 30mph speed limit within the village and to a distance of approximately 400m north of the power station entrance, beyond which the National Speed Limit applies. Adjacent to the site entrance, it is approximately 5.5m in width. Footways are provided within the village and there is regularly spaced street lighting. 3.2 Chapel Lane runs to the west and north of the site, from the B1392, and provides access to the rear entrance to the site. This route will not be used by construction traffic or construction staff during the build period. Chapel Lane is a single carriageway, which is subject to a 30mph speed limit in the residential area to the east and the National Speed Limit in the rural section to the west and south. In the residential area, the carriageway is approximately 5.8m wide, and on-street parking occurs along the northern side, which results in width for just one vehicle to pass at a time. In the rural section of the road, the width ranges between approximately 4.8m and 6.3m. 3.3 Chapel Lane leads to a level crossing, and narrow bridges over the North and South Soak Drains and the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation Canal. This provides access to a residential property and other land but does not link to the A The B1392 joins the A18 at a priority junction on the southern edge of Keadby, near Althorpe station. Left and right turning lanes are provided from the B1392, while a right turning lane from the A18 is also provided. 3.5 The A18 crosses the River Trent to the east of the junction with the B1392, via the King George V bridge. This bridge has footway on its northern side which is provided on a separate structure. There is a bend in the carriageway at the eastern end of the bridge, before the road turns to the north. The speed limit increases from 30mph to 40mph near its junction with the B1216 Station Road. The A18 continues through the village of Gunness, and then provides a link towards Scunthorpe, with the speed limit increasing to the National Speed Limit at the eastern edge of the village. 3.6 The A18 joins the M181 and A1077 at a roundabout junction on the western edge of Scunthorpe, before continuing into the town. 3.7 From the B1392 junction, the A18 continues south with a 40mph speed limit, which increases to 60mph beyond Althorpe, as the road bends towards the west. The A18 Page 5

11 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment continues as a straight single carriageway, past the two construction entrances which lead to the site. 3.8 There is a perpendicular priority access to the site, with a skewed access located a short distance to the east of this; both access routes cross the Hatfield Waste Drain. These junctions were used to service the construction of the Keadby wind farm and will form the construction traffic entrances, for both materials and staff trips. The perpendicular access was built to implement the 1993 Consented Development and was used for the majority of vehicles during the building of the wind farm, while the skewed route was used to carry oversized abnormal loads into the wind farm site. The angle of the skewed bridge means that oversized loads are forced to travel to and from the west. Access roads continue to the Navigation Canal, crossing the Canal on the North Pilfrey bridge which was constructed in It then links to Bonnyhale Road and onwards towards the site of the Proposed Development along existing private access roads. Figure 3.1: Perpendicular bridge Figure 3.2: Skew bridge 3.9 The A18 continues westwards from the construction site accesses to form a gyratory junction with the A161. NLC has plans to make improvements at this junction to improve safety at the gyratory, including additional signage and lineage on the westbound approach, new chevrons on the eastbound approach, and a reduction in the speed limit through the junction to 40mph. These works are planned for the financial year A second phase of works to change the priorities on the northern section of the junction, from Ealand, is proposed although no timetable is yet confirmed The A161 provides a northwards link towards Crowle and Ealand, as well as a southwards link to the M180 Junction 2, from where the majority of construction traffic is expected to travel. Page 6

12 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 3.11 The M180 Junction 2 is a grade separated junction with priority arrangements from the off-slip roads The A18 continues to the west to join the M180 Junction 1 via the Tudworth roundabout. This is the route taken from the M180 by oversized abnormal loads constructing the Keadby windfarm, rather than accessing via Junction The A161 towards Ealand provides the proposed route for overweight abnormal loads. This involves travel along the A161, New Trent Street and Bonnyhale Road. New Trent Street is a single carriageway road passing through a residential area, with on-street parking on both sides, which joins Bonnyhale Road at an acute angle. Bonnyhale Road is bounded by residential properties at its northern end and then becomes a rural road with only limited residential properties. The eastern section of the road is a private road for use by SSE and National Grid. Traffic count data 3.14 Six automatic traffic counters (ATCs) were laid by Traffic Survey Partners from Wednesday 13 th May to Tuesday 19 th May 2015 inclusive. The locations of these counters were agreed with the highway officer at NLC. The ATCs measured vehicle volumes, speeds and classifications at the following locations: B1392, south of site entrance and immediately south of canal bridge; B1392, north of site entrance, at northern edge of built up village area (by river/drain where village sign is located); A18 Station Road, immediately to west of King George V bridge; Althorpe Main Street, south of junction with Kelsey Lane; A18, adjacent to windfarm access road junction; and A161, link between A18 and M180, near Little Hirst The ATC on the A18 adjacent to the windfarm access road was damaged during the survey period, and therefore two additional days of survey data were collected on Sunday 7 th June and Monday 8 th June, to provide seven full days worth of data Additionally, a classified turning count was undertaken at the existing power station entrance on the B1392 between 07:00 and 19:00 on Tuesday 12 th May The weather was dry Figure 3.3 indicates the locations of the ATCs and classified turning count. Page 7

13 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment Power station Figure 3.3: Locations of traffic surveys 3.18 Copies of the traffic surveys are included in Appendix C. Summary results from the ATCs are set out for each site in the following sections, for total vehicles and also heavy vehicles (counted as all vehicles larger than a light goods Transit-type van, including buses/coaches). This covers the standard network peak hours of 08:00-09:00 and 17:00-18:00, as well as 24-hour flows. Figures for the periods of 06:00-07:00 and 19:00-20:00 are also set out from the ATCs; these reflect the periods when the dayshift staff, during construction and then operation, will be entering and then exiting the site expected to be the busiest time for generated trips from the development. B1392, site entrance junction 3.19 Total vehicle numbers are set out in Table 3.1 for all movements at the site entrance junction. This is shown for the network peak hours and the full 12-hour survey period. The turning count did not survey the periods of 06:00 to 07:00, when dayshift operational staff for the Proposed Development will arrive at the site, nor 19:00 to 20:00, when dayshift operational staff will depart; therefore data is shown for 07:00-08:00 and 18:00-19:00, which reflect the times at which operational staff at the Proposed Development will be arriving for and departing from the night shift.

Approximately 93% of arrivals came from the south, and 97% of departures travelled towards the south. This information will be used later in this report to determine the routing of operational traffic from the Proposed Development Queuing surveys undertaken at the junction alongside the junction demonstrated no capacity issues. A maximum queue of two vehicles was observed at 16:35, with vehicles waiting to exit the power station site Pedestrian numbers were also counted at the site entrance. This indicated only one pedestrian entry and three pedestrian exits from the power station across the 12-hour period. A total of 53 people were observed walking north or south along Station Road through the 12-hour period, of whom 20 were travelling southbound between 07:00 and 09:00, and 19 of whom were travelling northbound between 15:00 and 17:00.

This equates to approximately just under 13 per minute, on average. HGV proportions are higher during the morning than evening peak hour at this location The recorded 85 th percentile speeds from the ATC at this location are summarised in Table 3.7. Direction Eastbound Westbound 85 th percentile observed speed 63.7mph 63.2mph Table 3.7: Speed survey results on A18 at construction site entrance 3.34 These results demonstrate that the majority of drivers travel within or just over the speed limit at this location. Given the access to the site at this location will carry the construction vehicles, including slow moving HGVs, it is suggested that the speed limit be reduced to 40mph in this area during the construction period, as occurred during the construction of the wind farm, to improve safety during this time. Further information on this is set out in Chapter 7. Page 11

This equates to approximately ten vehicles per minute, on average. Accident data 3.37 Injury accident data has been provided for the site by the Road Safety team at NLC for the period of February 2010 to February The study area covers the main routes to be taken by construction traffic, as well as the highway local to the operational site entrance. The study area is shown in Figure 3.4 and the accident data provided by NLC is included in Appendix D. Figure 3.4: Area of accident analysis Page 12

18 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 3.38 Details for a total of 48 personal injury collisions (PICs) were provided by NLC over the review period, comprising one fatality, ten serious accidents and 37 slight incidents. This includes eight PICs located on the B1450 Burringham Road, outside of the requested study area No PICs were recorded at the operational site entrance, or at the construction site entrances on the A18. The study period included the construction phase of the Keadby Wind Farm The fatality occurred on the A18 west of Althorpe. One vehicle was involved, with the driver losing control on an icy surface and the vehicle overturning Four of the serious PICs occurred over a 2km stretch of the A18 near Althorpe. One occurs when a vehicle slipped on an icy road and collided with another vehicle; a second happened when a driver lost control when overtaking a vehicle. The third resulted from a driver clipping the kerb when moving over to avoid an oncoming vehicle and leaving the carriageway. The final serious incident on this stretch involved a young motorcyclist who drove into the rear of a parked vehicle, having been dazzled by the sun Three of the PICs, including the fatality and one of the serious incidents, occurred on icy surfaces on the A18 near Althorpe. Should additional gritting to address this issue not be possible by NLC, signage to highlight this issue during winter may be beneficial There was a small cluster of three PICs at the priority junction of the B1392 with the A18, all of which resulted in slight injuries. Two of these resulted from turning drivers pulling into the path of another vehicle, due to failure to look properly, while the other involved just a single driver who lost control A cluster of nine accidents occurred at the Crowle gyratory between the A18 and A161. One of these resulted in serious injuries to a motorcyclist, who was overtaking a car which pulled into its path. Two other incidents at this location involved motorcyclists, one of which lost control when making a turn, and the other occurred when a car entering the junction into the path of the motorcyclist, who skidded and lost control. The road layout was listed as a possible contributory factor to one PIC at this location, with failure to look, poor turns, sudden braking and loss of control being common reasons for other injuries at this location As set out above, NLC has plans in place to make improvements to this junction with the aim of improving safety for road users. Page 13

19 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 3.46 Two incidents involved cyclists, both being children. Both of these were on Old School Lane, in the southern section of Keadby village, and resulted from the cyclists pulling into the path of cars Four of the PICs involved pedestrians. The first resulted in serious injuries to a child pedestrian who walked out from behind a parked car. The second resulted when a person who had been assaulted was lying in the road and was hit by an oncoming vehicle, resulting in slight injuries. These two both occurred on the B1329 Station Road, near Chesswick Avenue. The final two accidents resulted from a car passing too close to a pedestrian and both occurred on Burringham Road. Where Only one of the PICs involved a goods vehicle over 7.5t. This happened at the eastern end of the King George V bridge, when an HGV travelling west to north slowed to give way to oncoming vehicles, and a car travelling behind it collided with the rear of a motorcyclist who was directly behind the HGV. The motorcyclist received slight injuries Given the large study area, covering approximately 10km of highways, the number of accidents during the five year analysis period is considered relatively low and there is no definitive pattern linking a proportion of the incidents. This is equivalent to an average of ten PICs per year, or one PIC per kilometre of highway per year There is no record of accidents relating to the construction of the wind farm, which would have had large vehicles using the local highway network, as will the Proposed Development scheme. With the exception of the Crowle gyratory, which NLC is proposing to amend to improve safety, it is concluded that there are currently no highway safety issues in the vicinity of the proposed development Careful management of traffic during the construction phase for example avoiding the village of Keadby by using the A18 entrance for all construction vehicles and construction staff will reduce the impact of this phase on potentially sensitive areas, where there are pedestrians or cyclists.

20 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 4 Accessibility and Opportunities for Sustainable Travel Introduction 4.1 The power station is located a short distance to the west of the B1392 and Keadby village to minimise impact upon the residents, and as a result, although opportunities for sustainable travel by staff are available, their usage by staff may be limited to some extent. It is 800m, or 10 minute walk, from the site of the Proposed Development to the public highway network at the B1392, which limits the potential staff population with a 2km walking distance or a 5km cycling distance. The results of the pedestrian surveys showed only four pedestrians in total on the access road through the 12-hour surveyed period, demonstrating little existing travel demand by foot to or from the site. 4.2 The nearest local large population centre of Scunthorpe is approximately 5km from the site, with the southern sections of the town being up to 12km from Keadby. The nearest main road (the A18) is 2km from the site. As a consequence most staff living outside Keadby or nearby villages will need to travel by car to access the site, although car sharing and travel by other sustainable modes will be encouraged. Walking 4.3 A distance of 2km, or 25 minute walk at a comfortable speed of 80m per minute, is generally considered the maximum distance for people to commute on foot. This distance covers the majority of the village of Keadby, both north and south of the power station. 4.4 Within the site, a footway is provided from the B1392 to the site security gates and to the main office building. Within the site, pedestrian walkways are provided and are marked out with yellow and green lines. Pedestrians can walk on these without requiring any personal protective equipment (PPE); outside of these walkways, employees and visitors need to wear full PPE including gloves and safety boots. 4.5 A footway of varying width is provided on the western side of the B1392. This continues through the village to the south, and then continues southwards along the A18 as far as Crowle Bank Road. Dropped kerbs are provided across some of the minor road junctions. A footway commences on the eastern side of the B1392 after the road crosses the canal. This continues to the A18 junction, and then turns towards the east, passing bus stops and the Althorpe rail station before crossing over the River Trent on the road bridge. Page 15

21 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment Cycling 4.6 A distance of 5km is generally considered acceptable for most people to consider cycling, although some keen cyclists will travel further than this. Cycle parking is provided on-site, inside the security gates, and showers and lockers are provided within the main office building for use by staff. 4.7 An off-road cycle route runs along the towpath next to the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation. This provides a link to and from the west, including the village of Ealand (5km, 16 minute ride at 320m per minute), before continuing to Thorne and Doncaster, although its condition is overgrown in places with a poor surface that may make access only possibly by mountain bike. It is understood that NLC has plans to improve this route for cyclists, although timescales are unknown. 4.8 There are on-road cycle lanes within Gunness on Doncaster Road between its junction with Neap House Road and the eastern edge of the village, where the 40mph speed limit through the village increases to the National Speed Limit. This is approximately 3.5km from the site of Keadby I and II, and therefore is within a suitable cycling distance. 4.9 The western edge of Scunthorpe is 5km from the power station. This will involve cycling along the National Speed Limit section of Doncaster Road, which only confident cyclists are likely to consider. This is the most direct route to Scunthorpe, however; the alternative route via Burringham is approximately 8.5km, which is further than many cyclists will travel by this mode. Public transport accessibility 4.10 The nearest bus stops to the site are on Station Road, south of the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation, approximately 1.1km or 14 minute walk from the site of the Proposed Development, of which 800m is within the site. Bus service 25 stops here, providing an hourly link to Scunthorpe Additional buses stop at the Althorpe rail station, 2km from the site. Bus services 90, 360 and 399 stop at this location, each providing services every two hours to Scunthorpe and other surrounding towns A summary of the bus services stopping near the site is set out in Table 3.1.

There is potential therefore for staff members to undertake a multi-modal trip by carrying a bicycle on the train and cycling to the power station. Staff could either leave a bicycle parked at Althorpe station, or could carry a folding bicycle on the train, which would allow them to travel by this mode at both ends of their journey Trains stop hourly in each direction, with services running between Scunthorpe and Doncaster, with some continuing to Sheffield. The first arrival from Doncaster is at 07:09 and from Scunthorpe at 05:51, Monday to Friday. The last departure for Doncaster is at 22:26 and for Scunthorpe at 23:12, Monday to Friday. Services run at a similar frequency on Saturdays, and there is no service on Sundays. There is therefore some scope for staff members to travel by this mode of travel, in combination with a cycle journey or potentially being picked up by a colleague. Summary 4.15 The site is concluded to be accessible in a local context, although the necessity of the site being away from residential areas does increase the distance to potential sustainable travel opportunities. There is however opportunity for members of staff to travel to the site by cycle, bus or rail in particular, and this will be encouraged even if for occasional trips. Page 17

23 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 5 Development Proposals 5.1 Planning consent was granted for Keadby II in 1993, and in 1998 the consent was deemed to have been commenced through the construction of an access road. The main implications for the Consented Development are that design and layout variations are required in order to accommodate modern gas turbines. Advances in engineering design over the period since 1993, especially in regard to gas turbine technology, have resulted in gas turbines steadily increasing in size, output and efficiency. 5.2 The Proposed Development will comprise one gas turbine unit, one Waste Heat Boiler (WHB), one steam turbine unit and associated infrastructure. The output will be higher than the Consented Development at up to 800 MW, in part through turbine capacity and in part through an operational mode of supplementary firing. The gas turbine will exhaust through the WHB to a steam turbine and will be cooled via condensing tower technology as proposed for the Consented Development. The application site includes provision to accommodate the new requirement to include land for possible future carbon capture equipment, although this may involve some further minor modifications once options to address this requirement are evaluated. 5.3 The new power station buildings will be located to the west of the existing Keadby I power station. The gas turbine unit and steam turbine unit will be located immediately to the west of the power station, while the cooling towers will be located further to the west of Chapel Lane and the existing tanks, with pipework linking the two areas. A red line plan showing the area of development is included in Appendix E. Proposed access arrangement 5.4 The operational access will be the existing priority junction onto the B1392. This is formed of single entry and exit lanes. 5.5 Construction traffic, including staff traffic, will use the existing priority access junctions onto the A18. Further details of this is set out in Chapter 7. Staff numbers 5.6 There is predicted to be a total increase in operational staff of 18 people to operate the Proposed Development, which will include any staff required for the future carbon capture equipment. This is in addition to the staff who operate Keadby I, as staff working on Keadby I will also work on the Proposed Development. 5.7 Table 5.1 sets out a summary of existing and additional staff at the site. Page 18

24 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment Total number employed Office staff 30 including embedded staff managing other sites Typical hours 09:00-17:00 Maximum number on site at any one time -day Maximum number on site at any one time -night Keadby I power station staff Keadby II power station staff Shifts: 07:00-19:00, 19:00-07:00 Shifts: 07:00-19:00, 19:00-07: (security staff) 3 1 Table 5.1: Staffing numbers at Keadby power station 5.8 These results show that although total numbers employed on the site will increase by 18, the number on site at any one time will only increase by eight people, which is a minimal change. The total number of employees is a lower level of employment than expected at the time of the 1993 planning application, which estimated 50 members of staff to operate the Proposed Development. Total numbers of staff on site at any one time is likely to be around 63, plus any visitors. 5.9 Details of construction staff are set out in Chapter 7. Parking 5.10 A power station is a sui generis land use and therefore has no parking standards for this type of development There is an existing staff and visitor car park outside the main security gates. This car park has a total of 94 spaces, of which three are disabled spaces. At 11am on the day of the site visit (May 2015), 36 of these spaces were in use. No change is proposed to this car park as a result of the developments The proposals allow for a small number of parking spaces within the Proposed Development; these spaces will be used for operational and support vehicles Given the site s location and availability of public transport, with limited public transport provision for night or weekend workers, most employees currently travel to the site by car and this is expected to continue into the future. The proposed level of parking is therefore considered appropriate to ensure that all parking is contained within the site. Page 19

25 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 6 Operational Trip Generation 6.1 This chapter reviews the levels of additional trip generation that will be required during the operational phase (post-construction) of the Proposed Development. Construction traffic trip generation is set out in Chapter As summarised in Chapter 5, a total of 18 additional members of staff will be required to operate the Proposed Development through 14 shifts over the week. A maximum of eight of these will be on-site at any one time, during the day shift, with shift patterns of 07:00 to 19:00 and 19:00 to 07:00 as per Keadby I. 6.3 Given the shift patterns, staff members will be travelling to and from the site outside of the usual network peak hours. For purposes of assessment, it has been assumed that all staff will travel by single occupancy car. 6.4 Table 6.1 sets out the traffic generation from the additional members of staff from the Proposed Development, at the power station shift changes and also during the network peak hours. This is in addition to the current office staff at the site and the staff required from Keadby I when this becomes operational again. Time Arrivals Departures 06:00-07: :00-08: :00-09: :00-18: :00-19: :00-20: Table 6.1: Trip generation from new Keadby II operational staff 6.5 As all staff at the Proposed Development will start and finish at the same time, it is likely that all of the arrivals or departures will occur over a period of 15 to 30 minutes. There will be no commuting trips by operational staff from the Proposed Development during the network peak hours. 6.6 Based on the results of the traffic counts at the site entrance, which demonstrated 93% of arrivals from the south and 97% of departures to the south, and given the low trip generation, it is expected that all of the newly generated operational traffic from the Proposed Development will travel to and from the south. 6.7 A PICADY analysis has been undertaken for the site access onto the B1392, with summary results shown in Table 6.2. The greatest increase in operational traffic as a result of the Proposed Development project will occur 06:00 to 07:00 and 19:00 to 20:00, when the day shift staff arrive and depart. As the classified counts at this Page 20

26 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment location did not cover this time period, the flows from 07:00 to 08:00 and 18:00 to 19:00, which are likely to be higher and therefore reflect a robust analysis, have been used as a proxy. 6.8 Allowance has also been included for operational staff at Keadby I, who were not working at the site at the time of the traffic surveys. The staffing numbers shown in Table 2.1 have been used, assuming that all members of staff will travel by single occupancy vehicle. Arrivals and departures of staff from Keadby I and the Proposed Development have been included in this time period to ensure a robust assessment. Arm 07:00-08:00 18:00-19:00 RFC Queue RFC Queue Site access Right turn lane from B Table 6.2: PICADY analysis Observed Keadby I + Keadby II traffic flows 6.9 The PICADY analysis demonstrates that the junction will work well within capacity following the addition of new operational staff The ATCs for the B1392 south of the site indicated average weekday traffic of 73 vehicle movements (two-way combined) between 06:00 and 07:00, when operational staff will be arriving at the site. The increase of eight vehicles represents an 11% increase on the very low base flows. In the evening, when the daytime staff are leaving, there are 125 vehicles on average on this road, and therefore the increase of eight vehicles between 19:00 and 20:00 reflects a 6% increase in traffic flows from a low base Once operational traffic exits onto the A18, it reflects a considerably lower proportion of total traffic and will have no noticeable impact upon the operation of the highway There will be a negligible impact upon the highway network during the standard peak hours, following commencement of operations at the Proposed Development. Shift patterns avoid the network peaks so that members of staff are travelling at quieter times of day. Page 21

27 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 7 Construction Phase Impact 7.1 The build programme is estimated to be of 36 month duration, with up to 500 members of construction staff employed, and up to 10 HGVs per hour servicing the site. 7.2 An indicative plan showing routes of travel by the different vehicles is included at Appendix F. Construction staff trips 7.3 A peak construction staff complement of 500 has been estimated by SSE. This is a higher level of staffing than was set out in the 1992 Environmental Statement, but reflects SSE s experiences at the recently completed combined cycle gas turbine power station at Great Island in County Wexford and their Waste to Energy plant at Ferrybridge. 7.4 A staff car park will be provided on-site, to the west of the proposed power station. All construction staff driving to work will be required to use the A18 entrance to access the site; they will not be permitted to use the B1392 site entrance or Chapel Lane unless on foot or bicycle. Staff numbers 7.5 The maximum figure of 500 would be employed for months seven to thirty of the build programme, with a minimum figure of 300 during the first and last six months. Exact numbers of staff will not be known until a contract is placed. 7.6 Construction is expected to be on a 24/7 programme, with the probable exception of a two week shutdown over the Christmas and New Year period. Shift hours are likely to be 07:00 to 19:00 and 19:00 to 07:00, so that staff avoid the network peak hours when accessing the site. There are likely to be more staff on the dayshift than the nightshift; for purposes of assessment it is assumed that three quarters work on the dayshift and one quarter on the nightshift. Staff are assumed to work on average 40 hours a week, generally comprising 3x12-hour shift one week and 4x12-hour shift a second week, although exact scheduling will be determined by the contractors. 7.7 Therefore, only half of the day or night staff will be on-site at any one time. This equates to 188 day staff and 63 night staff. To ensure a robust assessment, these numbers have been rounded up to 200 and 65. Page 22

28 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment Staff trip generation 7.8 The 1992 Environmental Statement estimated that 60% of staff would travel by car/van, with an average occupancy of 1.2 people per vehicle. 7.9 Given the current public transport provision, and given that few construction staff are likely to be living within walking or cycling distance, to ensure a robust assessment it has been assumed that all staff will travel by car or small van to the construction site. A vehicle occupancy of 1.5 has been assumed, based on SSE s experience on other sites, as staff will often travel together in cars or work vans. This approach has been agreed with the highway officer at NLC If contractors are employed by an agency and are living in similar areas, the agencies may arrange minibuses which would reduce vehicle numbers; however, this will not be known for certain until the contractor has been appointed Table 7.1 sets out the estimated trip generation by construction staff working on the Proposed Development. Time Arrivals Departures Total people Vehicles Total people Vehicles 06:00-07: :00-08: :00-09: :00-18: :00-19: :00-20: Table 7.1: Trip generation from Keadby II construction staff (based on maximum total employment of 500 employees) 7.12 These results demonstrate that the busiest times at the site entrance will be 06:00-07:00 as the day staff arrives and 19:00 to 20:00 as they depart There will be no impact upon the local highway network as a result of the staff trip movements during the network peak hours. Staff trip distribution 7.14 At this stage, with no contractor having been appointed, it is not possible to determine where construction staff will live. Staff are expected to comprise a mixture of specialist transient workers, who will travel from their home towns and live temporarily in hotels and boarding facilities in local towns. It is probable that most of these will try to live in Scunthorpe due to its proximity to the Keadby site. Additionally there will be local general contractors appointed to work on various elements on the project, who will come from Scunthorpe, Doncaster and the industrial towns to the east. Page 23

29 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 7.15 As a result, for purposes of assessment, it has been assumed that staff traffic movements will be distributed 75% to/from the east and 25% to/from the west. This approach has been agreed with the highway officer at NLC and is indicated on Figure 7.1. It is also assumed that traffic travelling to and from the west will travel from the M180 via the A161, as this is the quickest route towards Doncaster. For purposes of assessment, all traffic travelling to and from the east will come from Scunthorpe via the A18 (through Gunness), with none directly from the intermediate villages. Power station 25% 25% 75% 75% Figure 7.1: Distribution of construction staff traffic 7.16 Figures 7.2 and 7.3 set out the generated traffic flows during the arrival period of dayshift staff between 06:00 and 07:00 and the departures period of 19:00 and 20:00.

Adjacent to the King George V bridge, traffic flows including the construction traffic will be 512 and 713 vehicles in each hour respectively. These flows are well below the available capacity on the link and will therefore not have a significant impact upon the capacity or operation of the A18. Page 25

31 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 7.18 A PICADY analysis has been undertaken for the construction site access onto the A18, with summary results shown in Table 7.2. Arm 06:00-07:00 19:00-20:00 RFC Queue RFC Queue Site access Right turn from A Table 7.2: PICADY analysis Observed construction staff traffic flows 7.19 The junction will work well within capacity during the busiest times for construction staff arrivals and departures and will not cause any problems with queuing for passing traffic. Construction vehicle trips 7.20 An estimate has been made by SSE based on their experience at other construction projects for power stations that up to ten construction vehicles per hour will be required to access and depart the site to bring materials and plant to and from the site. These are assumed to be a mixture of rigid and articulated HGVs, as well as specialised vehicles such as mixers Construction vehicles will only enter or exit the site during the dayshift, between 07:00 and 19: All HGVs will travel to and from the west, via the A18 and the A161, from the M180. They will use the existing entrance gate on the A18 that lead to the North Pilfrey Bridge, and no HGVs will be permitted to travel to or from the east past Althorpe or Keadby Consideration was given by SSE at an early stage for usage of the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation Canal to transport plant and materials. However, the lock gate from the River Trent is small in size, which would limit the ships that could be used, and additionally the tidal nature of the river is likely to constrain the hours during which such deliveries could be undertaken. Adjacent to the site, overhead pylons and gas plant limit the site of ship and lifting material. Additionally there is not a suitable pier at this location, and transhipment onto HGVs would still be required to transport these materials directly to the construction site It is probable that some materials will be transported by ship to ports at Grimsby and Immingham and then brought by HGV via the M180 for the final section of their journey to Keadby. This particularly applies to the abnormal loads, set out later in this chapter. Page 26

32 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment Traffic management 7.25 A Construction Traffic Management Plan will be provided for the site at the appropriate time. This will include measures such as: Agreed traffic routing all HGVs to use A18 entrance, from the west only. All staff to use A18 and not B1392; Traffic management on Chapel Lane, which will include traffic signals to control vehicles at the crossroad junction between the lane and the access road. Priority will be given to vehicles on Chapel Lane if it is safe to do so; Staff parking arrangements; Hours of operation, including restriction to deliveries; Wheel washing and dust control; Provision of advisory / advanced signage to direct construction vehicles from M180; Reduction in speed limit from National Speed Limit to 40mph in vicinity of A18 site entrance, during construction, to improve safety for contractors and passing vehicles; Information to contractors about routing, with potential for disciplinary process for contractors ignoring information; Membership of any contractors scheme, such as Considerate Constructors ; and Contact details at SSE for residents to report problems. Abnormal loads 7.26 It is predicted that there will be up to ten abnormal loads delivered to the site across the construction period. These will be used to carry the gas turbine equipment onto the site and therefore are likely to occur in the second half of the construction process. It is predicted that these items will be transported from the ports at Grimsby and Immingham, along the M180 to either Junction 1 or Junction 2 (depending on size of load) and then back along the A It is currently expected that these loads will access the site via the skewed bridge off the A18, over the Hatfield Waste Drain, although final routing will be agreed for these loads post-consent once the exact dimensions of the vehicles to be used has been confirmed The initial plans for transporting these heavy loads, as discussed with officers at North Lincolnshire Council were to use the AIL route via the A161 and along New Trent Street and Bonnyhale Road through Ealand. This route has been used in the past by Page 27

33 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment National Grid to transport heavy and large loads, prior to construction of the North Pilfrey Bridge. However, following the undertaking of swept path analysis for this route, it has become clear that due to the tight geometry at certain junctions and limited areas of adopted highway, this route may not be suitable, as it would require considerable upgrading to convey the extremely large vehicles required to carry the turbine equipment The contractors will make the abnormal load movement application at the appropriate time, post-consent, to agree routing and specific vehicles to be used. This is likely to result in temporary road closures during the periods in which the items, expected to be gas turbines, are transported Atkins undertook initial swept path analysis for the A18 skewed access in December 2014, as part of an assessment report which also considered the structural impact on the bridges of moving heavy loads via this route. Their swept path analysis tested two vehicles: Turbine 4000F: 28-axle trailer plus two four-axle tractor units 77.6m length, 6.4m width; and Turbine 8000H: 16-axle self-propelled vehicle 28.5m length, 5.9m width The Atkins report included structural analysis which indicated that that the superstructure would be adequate when the 4000F vehicle is restricted to the central 6m of the carriageway, and that the substructure is also adequate for the Turbine 4000F vehicle. However, it would currently be unsuitable in structural terms to carry the Turbine 8000H vehicle, and therefore structural improvements will be required to accommodate this or similar vehicles Mayer Brown has used the swept path templates set up by Atkins for the Turbine 4000F and Turbine 8000H to undertake tracking for these vehicles from the Crowle gyratory, along the A18, across the skewed bridge and along the access roads to cross at the North Pilfrey Bridge. Copies of these plans are attached in Appendix G The swept path analysis indicates that as the access route has been used previously for the transportation of wind turbine components, the majority of the widening or route amendment would be required on private land or bridges under the control of SSE. Some minor temporary highway amendments may be required in the vicinity of the access bridges from the A18 over the Hatfield Waste Drain The swept path analysis undertaken for the access routes is indicative only, as the vehicles used to transport the gas turbines are very specialised and may vary from Page 28

34 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment those tested, once a haulier is appointed. In due course, the hauliers involved with moving these large loads will need to undertake further assessments of structural conditions and swept path routing, once the vehicles to be used are confirmed The full details of any highway amendments required, which could include temporary removal of street furniture (including splitter islands and pedestrian crossing islands, street lights, telegraph poles) and alterations to kerblines, will be established with the local highway authority, the Highways Agency and the local police force once details have been established. Temporary road closures will be required, to enable large loads to use oncoming traffic lanes or travel along the opposing side of the carriageway at junctions, with parking prohibited along the access route during the heavy load movements. Advanced warning will be given to residents and the general public about the road closures, and contact details for SSE will be provided so that residents can get in touch to find out further information. Page 29

35 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment 8 Summary and Conclusions Summary 8.1 This Transport Assessment has been produced by Mayer Brown Ltd on behalf of SSE. It is submitted in respect to the development of the Keadby II power station. The power station already has planning permission, received in The site access road to the power station has since been constructed and therefore the power station does not need a completely new consent, but does require an application to vary the consent under section 36c of the Electricity Act. 8.2 The Proposed Development will have a total of 18 additional members of staff during the operational phase, in addition to existing staff related to Keadby I, with an estimated maximum of eight of the new staff members on-site at any one time. 8.3 Construction will occur over a three year period, with up to 500 members of construction staff employed. This will equate to around 200 people on-site during the dayshift and 65 during the nightshift, to cover 24/7 operation. Conclusions 8.4 The power station is located a short distance to the west of the B1392 and Keadby village to minimise impact upon the residents, and as a result, although opportunities for sustainable travel by staff are available, their usage by staff may be limited to some extent. The potential staff population with a 2km walking distance (which includes the bus stops and rail station) or a 5km cycling distance is relatively small. As a consequence most staff living beyond this distance will need to travel by car to access the site, although car sharing and travel by other sustainable modes will be encouraged. 8.5 The existing access junction onto the B1392 will be used by operational staff at the Proposed Development. The existing access junctions onto the A18, used for construction of the Keadby windfarm, will be used for all construction vehicles, including contractor/staff vehicles. 8.6 A review of the historic accident records indicates that there are no existing highway safety concerns in the immediate vicinity of the site, but that there is an accident record at the Crowle Gyratory. NLC is proposing amendments to this junction in the current and next financial year which will assist in improving safety at this location. There will be minimal additional traffic during the operational phase through this junction, due to the low staff numbers required to operate the Proposed Development. Additional Page 30

36 Keadby Developments Limited Keadby II power station, Keadby, North Lincolnshire Transport Assessment construction traffic movements through this junction will be low and those related to staff movements will be outside the peak periods when roads are quiet. 8.7 The predicted operational staff traffic is considered to present an immaterial increase, and will not have an impact on the safety or operation of the local highway network. 8.8 Construction staff traffic will occur outside the network peak hour, when there is considerable spare capacity to accommodate the increase of up to 133 vehicles at the start and end of the day shift. Capacity testing of the access junction shows no issues related to queuing as a result of the construction traffic. 8.9 Construction HGVs will amount to ten vehicles per hour (20 movements) during the dayshift only. This can be accommodated without issues for highway capacity. All HGVs will travel to and from the west along the A18, in order to avoid the residential areas of Keadby and Gunness There will be up to ten abnormal loads throughout the build period, carrying gas turbine components to the site. These will be carried by a specialist heavy haulage company and formal abnormal load applications will be made at an appropriate time, which will include further consideration of swept path analysis, highway closures and temporary highway alterations including removal of street furniture To summarise, it can be concluded that operational and construction staff traffic related to the new power station will not have a material impact upon the surrounding local highway network. A Construction Traffic Management Plan will be provided to control both staff and HGV traffic during the construction stage of the project. The small number of abnormal loads will require temporary road closures and will therefore cause some temporary disruption, but this will be managed by SSE and the specialist haulier in order to minimise impacts on local road users as much as possible Consequently, it is considered that there are no significant highways and transportation matters that would preclude the approval of this application.

40 Helen Iorwerth From: Louisa Simpson Sent: 11 June :38 To: Helen Iorwerth Subject: RE: Keadby II power station - transport inputs Helen, Thanks for your . It was good to meet you too on site and I did find the visit extremely interesting and helpful. With regards to the issues raised in your , I would make the following comments: Construction Staff Trips Can you please clarify how out of a total of 500 staff, this equates to 200 day shift and 65 night shift. 1.5 workers per car is acceptable and I agree with your comments that the modal share for car is likely to be higher than the 60% quoted in the 1993 ES, given the location of the site. Committed Traffic It is acceptable for the ATC data to be used to determine traffic percentages per hour and apply them to committed development flows. Growth Factors Given the location of the site and nature of the surrounding area, it is acceptable to 2015 traffic data + committed traffic for your assessments. Sensitive Receptors You appear to have covered the main locations, I can't think of any others that should be included.

We are now developing the trip numbers for the construction and operational phases, as well as the other elements of the ES chapter, and we were hoping that we could get your agreement to the following items. 1

41 Construction staff trips As no contractor has been appointed, definite details are unknown, so we will need to make some assumptions: 500 staff split over 24/7 operation, on two shifts (07 19, 19 07) details provided by SSE. This equates to around 200 per dayshift and 65 per nightshift. Average car occupancy of 1.5 construction staff per car. Some may travel by minibus, if these are laid on by employment agencies, but as a worst case we will assume everyone travelling by car/works van. The 1993 ES suggested only 60% travelling by car, but given the limited public transport, and the distance of the site from any potential accommodation, it is more realistic that most people will travel by car for convenience. All staff vehicles will use the A18 entrance (none via B1392 main entrance). Staff distribution of 25% to/from west and 75% to/from east. These will all travel along the A18 from Scunthorpe direction or from the M180 via the A161. We don t know exactly where staff will live, but given that any transient workers will probably stay in Scunthorpe if possible, and other many sub contractors will come from the industrial towns to the east, with some from Doncaster, we consider this split is a reasonable estimate. All construction traffic (HGVs) will be expected to travel to/from the west, from the M180 via the A161 link to the A18. Committed traffic I have reviewed the TAs for the Lincolnshire Lakes and the Scunthorpe FC relocation, which has given the following trip generation, on the A18 west of the M181 roundabout junction. For purposes of our assessment, all of this traffic will be sent along the A18 towards Crowle, with none set to the intermediate villages. Development AM Peak (08:00-09:00) PM Peak (17:00-18:00) Lincolnshire Lakes Scunthorpe United FC ground Total committed traffic on A We will also be looking at the hours of 06 07, (shift changes), and daily traffic, but unsurprisingly, the TAs for the committed developments did not review those hours. Would you be happy for us to use the ATC results on the A18 to determine percentages of traffic in each hour, and then apply those percentages to these committed flows, 2

42 to estimate the committed traffic for the other time periods? E.g. ATC flows are 8% of daily flows, are 2.5% etc. Growth factors We were planning to use the 2015 observed plus committed traffic for our assessments in the ES, without growth factors, to ensure robust assessment as the percentage impacts of the development are highest this way. Our initial junction analysis at the site access for the operational phase shows plenty of capacity so addition of a growth factor would have little impact. Please could you confirm if you are happy with this approach, or if you will require us to apply TEMPRO growth. Sensitive receptors Looking at the IMEA guidance on sensitive receptors, and the routing of operational/construction trips, we consider the following locations will be considered sensitive receptors in relation to this site: Receptor Location Receptor Sensitivity Althorpe and Keadby Primary School Norwood House care home Crowle Gyratory (accident blackspot ) Road with narrow footways New Generation Park B1392 Station Road, Keadby A18 Station Road, Gunness High High 3 Potential impacts Operational traffic Operational and construction staff traffic A18 High Operational, construction staff, construction traffic, AILs B1392, Keadby (north of canal near site entrance) B1392 Station Road, Keadby Medium Medium Operational traffic Operational traffic Unsegregated cycleways A18, Gunness Medium Operational and construction staff traffic Listed building King George V bridge A18, Gunness Low Operational and construction staff traffic Listed building The Old Rectory A18, Gunness Low Operational and construction staff traffic Listed building Keadby Lock B1392, Keadby Low Operational traffic Listed building Syphon carrying South Level Engine Drain under Rover Torne Listed building Syphon carrying Hatfield Waste Drain below North Level Engine Drain A18, near Pilfrey Farm Low Operational, construction staff, construction traffic, AILs A18, near North Moor Farm Low Operational, construction staff,

I hope the above is all clear; if you have any questions, please do ask. I look forward to receiving your thoughts on the above. Regards Helen From: Louisa Simpson [mailto:louisa.simpson@northlincs.gov.uk] Sent: 30 April :27 To: Helen Iorwerth Subject: Re: Keadby II power station - transport inputs Helen, Thanks for your . The proposed survey locations are acceptable and there are no roadworks planned in the area for those dates. I am not aware of licences being required to lay surveys. Andy Fidell in our Network Management Team should be able to confirm this for you (andy.fidell@northlincs.gov.uk or ). The proposed scope/format of the Transport Statement looks acceptable. It would be beneficial to include with the TS a summary of what alternative modes of transport have been considered and why they have been discounted. The need for abnormal loads to travel through Ealand will also need to be included and suggestions for what can be done to minimise the impact on local residents as this will potentially be a sensitive issue. The committed developments that you need to be aware of are the Lincolnshire Lakes Development:

44 and the relocation of the football ground: The proposals for the Lincolnshire Lakes include de-trunking the M181 and providing two additional roundabout junctions and a signalised junction, the latter provides access specifically into the Lakes development whilst the former improve access to the local highway network. The southern junction will be with the B1450 Burringham Road and the northern junction will be just to the north of the unclassified Brumby Common Lane. The timescales for constructing these junctions is unknown, but it is anticipated to be within the next 3 years. It is unlikely that the Lincolnshire Lakes proposals or the football ground will have a significant impact on your proposals. I hope this is of assistance.

In 1993, consent was granted for a new gas power station Keadby II. The consent was implemented through construction of a new access road, however the power station was not built. 5

45 Since then, there have been changes to the proposed development, not least because technology has moved on significantly. As the 1993 consent was commenced, the power station does not need a completely new consent, but will require an application to vary the consent under section 36c of the Electricity Act. To support this variation application, we need to demonstrate that the new proposals do not result in any worse environmental effects. Therefore, the project team needs to carry out an ES of the proposed station as it is today. Application Site We understand that the application site comprises an existing gas power station which employs around staff. The development proposals seek to provide an additional modern gas power station to significantly increase the power output; a small increase of staff of additional operational jobs is proposed, in line with the Consented development. These staff members are likely to work on shifts that cover 24/7 operation. The construction phase will require up to 350 contractors on-site and will last for a period of around 3 years. It is therefore reasonable to assume that any transport impact will be associated with the construction phase alone and for a temporary period of around 3 years only. Construction traffic levels for the Proposed Development are anticipated to be broadly similar to those assessed for the Consented Development. Construction traffic was previously assessed based on assumed occupancy rates equivalent to two persons per car and as a worst case cumulatively with operation of Keadby I. The local highway network was assessed as being able to accommodate the assumed cumulative peak of 180 car journeys per day without undue disturbance to local residents. For HGVs, an average of 5 to 10 vehicles per working hour was anticipated over the entire construction period. The 1992 EA acknowledged the potential for use of other forms of transport access (rail, canal barge); however the intent was to implement Traffic Management Measures similar to Keadby I in agreement with the Highway Authority. The granted scheme stipulated that heavy good vehicles (HGVs) associated with construction should not be routed via Keadby and therefore a new access road by-passing Ealand should be built. This access route has now been constructed and will be utilised by the applicant to access the application site for the construction stage of the project. This access route links to the southern end of Chapel Lane, runs along the South Soak Drain, crosses the canal on the new bridge that was built to service the windfarm, then turns south towards the A18. It forms the minor arm of a priority junction with the A18, near the convergence of Three Rivers with South Engine Drain. Traversing this route will ensure that general construction traffic avoids Ealand and Keadby villages. However a small number of abnormal loads, which may require travel through Ealand, will be the subject of separate specific agreements. Anticipated Scope of Assessment Given that the proposals are unlikely to give rise to any significant change to the permanent levels of staff on-site at any one time (given shift working), we estimate that the completed proposals are unlikely to generate over 30 additional two-way vehicle trips during any given hour, above which a Transport Assessment with highway and junction capacity modelling is typically required. It is therefore reasonable to conclude that a reduced scope Transport Statement will be more appropriate for submission to focus upon the salient transport planning matters during the operational stage, being site accessibility, vehicular access arrangements, internal highway and car parking layout, parking standards, servicing, trip generation, construction vehicle impact and with no requirements for highways or junction capacity modelling. 6

46 We propose to undertake weeklong volume/speed/classification ATCs at the following locations, as per the attached sketch: A18, adjacent to access road junction (construction traffic access); A18, between B3192 Station Road and Althorpe Main Street ; A18 Doncaster Road, west of M181 roundabout; A161, link between A18 and M180. We will also undertake a turning movement count at the existing site entrance on the B3192, to determine typical operational movements, for a weekday 07:00--19:00. All surveys will be undertaken during term time and avoiding bank holidays. We are hoping to get these undertaken in the week commencing 11 th May. Please could you confirm that the survey locations and also the proposed week is acceptable to you; if you will require additional surveys please could you indicate their locations and types. We would appreciate if you could respond to this particular issue as a priority so we can get the surveys booked. Could you also confirm if licenses are required to lay surveys in North Lincolnshire, and if there are any roadworks occurring in this area that might affect the results. We suggest the following detail within any submitted Transport Statement: 1) Introduction 2) Site Location & Transport Accessibility a. Existing Site Description; b. Public Transport Accessibility; c. Local Pedestrian and Cycle Infrastructure; and d. Adjacent Highway Network and Existing Site Access Arrangements. 3) Development Proposals a. Proposed Schedule of Accommodation; b. Vehicular Access Arrangements (geometric review and visibility requirements); c. Internal Highway Arrangement (geometric design and swept path analysis); d. Car Parking Provision (in accordance with standards and anticipated demand); e. Cycle Parking Provision (in accordance with standards); and f. Delivery and Servicing Arrangement (in accordance with swept path analysis). 4) Trip Generation Assessment a. First principles / staff survey; 5) Construction Phase Impact a. Baseline traffic flows; 7

47 b. Construction vehicles (estimated numbers and swept paths); c. Construction staff travel; d. Highway impact assessment; and e. Considerate behaviour. 6) Summary and Conclusions The above report would be supported by the following drawings: Site in relation to the local and regional highway network; and Swept path drawings This information would be used as the basis for the Transport section of the ES, which we will also be producing. We would be grateful if you would be able to confirm if there are any further sensitive receptors that you wish to be assessed with the ES over and above those roads already set out above. In addition, should you require any cumulative development scenarios, we would be grateful if you would confirm the nature and locations of these permitted schemes to factor in to our calculations accordingly. We would appreciate if you could confirm if the above proposed content/format is acceptable to you for this project. We also understand that you may be commenting in more general terms about the proposals through the ongoing pre-app process and it would be helpful if we would be able to see any such comments once they are ready. If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
