INTRODUCTION / PROJECT BACKGROUND

1 INTRODUCTION / PROJECT BACKGROUND

PREAMBLE 1.1.1. WSP UK Ltd has been commissioned by Homes England to provide transportation and highways advice to support a planning application, in relation to the proposed re-development of land known as “Plot I”, comprising buildings and land formerly part of the wider St James Hospital, located within Portsmouth, Hampshire. 1.1.2. This Framework Travel Plan (FTP) has been prepared in accordance with the Portsmouth Local Transport Plan 3 (LTP3) as well current DfT Travel Plan Guidance and considers the accessibility and existing conditions of the site. The FTP outlines a management strategy with a clear set of objectives and targets that can be adopted for the Plot I site. As the development sits within a designated development area, the FTP will be a living document which will require monitoring, review and revision over the course of the development and wider proposals if and when they come forward. 1.1.3. This FTP should be read in conjunction with the Transport Assessment (TA) that has been prepared for the Plot I site. PLANNING CONTEXT 1.1.4. The development proposals to which this FTP relates comprise an outline planning application for up to 107 residential dwellings. The Plot I application site, is bounded by the Child Development Centre and NHS buildings to the north, a private road, referred to as Woodlands Walk and University of Portsmouth land to the east, Locksway Road to the south and a recently constructed residential development and NHS buildings to the west. LOCATION 1.1.5. The St James Hospital site is situated on the eastern edge of the city, approximately 3km from the centre of Portsmouth. In the context of the local surroundings, the site is located approximately 400m to the south of Milton Common and is bounded to the north and south by residential dwellings and to the east by the mouth of Lock Lake, which forms part of Langstone Harbour. 1.1.6. The Plot I site in relation to the regional highway network is illustrated in Figure 1. Figure 1 - Site in Relation to Regional Highway

PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT PLOT I 1.1.7. The existing plot currently contains six buildings and associated open space that were formerly associated and used as medical facilities as a part of St James Hospital. It is understood that the hospital has begun removing medical uses from its buildings. The development proposals seek to construct up to 107 residential dwellings on the Plot I land (3.7ha). The development itself will largely comprise of the construction of low rise 2-3 storey new build residential accommodation (Class C3 dwellings) and associated parking, urban realm and pedestrian infrastructure. 1.1.8. The indicative development proposals for Plot I are summarised in Table 1 below

Table 1 - Plot I Development Mix Development Tenure Quantum

Plot I - Residential Private House 62 Private Flats 45

1.1.9. As shown above the proposals intend to deliver a mix of houses and flats across the site. TRAVEL PLAN OVERVIEW 1.1.10. A Travel Plan can be defined as ‘a long-term management strategy for an organisation or site that seeks to deliver sustainable transport objectives through action and is articulated in a document that is regularly reviewed’. A Travel Plan involves identifying an appropriate package of measures to promote sustainable travel, with an emphasis on reducing reliance on single occupancy car journeys. 1.1.11. PCC’s Local Transport Policy 3 outlines the importance of providing sustainable travel choice alongside reducing the dominance of private car. A key point and of the LTP states the following; Widening travel choice to offer people reasonable alternatives to the private car for everyday journeys, and reducing the need to travel, moving towards a low-carbon economy. The complex nature of journey patterns and travel to work across the sub-region has resulted in heavy reliance on the private car. To reduce this, there needs to be significant improvements in quality and affordability of public transport networks that are controlled by private operators. 1.1.12. Within the LTP3 strategy, Policy L continues and outlines the following; The TfSH authorities will work with Local Planning Authorities across the area to encourage higher density and mixed-use developments to be located within main urban centres, in locations that are easily accessible by a range of travel methods. Planning authorities will be encouraged to locate new housing and employment development within close proximity. This will help reduce the need to travel and encourage the use of sustainable travel modes, thereby improving health and reducing carbon emissions. Good design of residential developments will ensure that key services are provided locally and that neighbourhoods are walkable, with good cycle and public transport links to nearby urban centres. Residential and workplace travel planning will be used to effectively manage the journeys created with development. 1.1.13. This LTP3 policy will contribute to the following outcomes: Reduced dependence on the private car through an increased number of people choosing public transport and the ‘active travel’ modes of walking and cycling; Improved awareness of the different travel options available to people for their journeys, enabling informed choices about whether people travel, and how; Improved accessibility within and beyond the sub-region; and Promoting a higher quality of life. 1.1.14. A Travel Plan should establish a structured strategy with clear objectives and targets, supported by suitable policies and quality measures for implementation. Whilst the location of a development and its physical design

WSP ST JAMES HOSPITAL - PLOT I February 2018 Project No.: 70016874 | Our Ref No.: FTP1 Page 2 of 28 Homes England

and proximity to facilities and services can create the conditions to make sustainable travel choices a natural option, communicating these opportunities to residents and occupiers is also critical to the success of the Travel Plan. 1.1.15. The Travel Plan is intended to be a ‘living document’ requiring monitoring, review and revision to ensure it remains relevant to site users and provides continuous improvements for its duration. 1.1.16. The structure of the FTP has been prepared as follows: Section 2: Accessibility and Existing Conditions; Section 3: Travel Plan Strategy; Section 4: Residential Objectives and Targets; Section 5: Residential Measures; and Section 6: Monitoring and Review

ACCESSIBILITY AND EXISTING CONDITIONS

2 ACCESSIBILITY AND EXISTING CONDITIONS

INTRODUCTION 2.1.1. This chapter provides a description and summary of the existing opportunities to promote and encourage sustainable travel to and from the Plot I site. The proposed site is well connected by multiple travel modes as detailed further within this chapter. PUBLIC TRANSPORT SERVICES BUS TRAVEL 2.1.2. In terms of local bus accessibility, there are three regular services within approximately 900m of the site, equivalent to an 11 minute walk at 80m per minute. A summary of these services are contained within Table 2 below:

Table 2 - Local Bus Services Within the Vicinity of the Site

Service Route Weekday Peak Peak Frequency- Peak Frequency - No. Frequency Saturday Sunday Monday - Friday 1 The Hard – City Centre South – Fratton Every 10 minutes Every 10 minutes Every 20 minutes – Eastney –The Hard 2 Allaway Avenue shops– QA Hospital – Every 10 minutes Every 10 minutes Every 20 minutes Cosham – Copnor – Eastney – Commercial Road – The Hard

The closest publicly accessible bus stop is located at Milton Road, which is 900m west of the site or a 14 minute walk with access to three additional bus services. Figure 2.1, appended to this report indicates the location of these bus stops and walking paths within relation to the proposed development. RAIL SERVICES 2.1.4. The site is situated within 2.3km (being less than a 30 minute walk at 80m per minute or 9 minute cycle assuming a comfortable cycle speed of 260m per minute) east of Fratton railway station. The Number 13 bus from Milton Road can also be used to access this station via an approximate 10 minute journey time. Figure 2-2 appended to this report illustrates the quickest walking route to Fratton railway station. 2.1.5. A summary of the most frequent services are located within the Table 3 below:

PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLE ACCESSIBILITY PEDESTRIAN INFRASTRUCTURE 2.1.6. The site benefits from direct connections with existing pedestrian infrastructure to the southern and northern boundaries via Locksway Road, the southern section of Woodlands Walk and Longfield Road. 2.1.7. Locksway Road benefits from pedestrian footways along both sides of the carriageway which are approximately two metres in width. There are a number of small priority junctions along Locksway Road which benefit from dropped kerbs and tactile paving which allow for permeability across the local network. 2.1.8. At the Locksway Road / Milton Road roundabout, to assist pedestrian crossing, there is a pedestrian island located approximately 3m from the give way line. 2.1.9. Towards the north of the site, Longfield Road provides an access to St James Hospital via a roundabout. There are dropped kerbs located to each arm to facilitate ease of crossing. 2.1.10. The site is well connected to the local pedestrian environment and is therefore likely to promote sustainable based travel. Figure 2.3 appended to this report, displays a pedestrian isochrone diagram of the local area. CYCLING INFRASTRUCTURE 2.1.11. There are several National Cycle Routes (NCR) within the vicinity of the site, one of which passes through the wider St James hospital area, as summarised below; NCR 222 runs east to west along Locksway Road before running north to south along Furze Lane; and NCR 2, which is 1.5 km or 8 minute cycle north of the site (accessed via NCR222). 2.1.12. NCR 222 is known as the South Downs link and provides accessibility northwards towards Chichester and southwards, where it meets the NCR 2. 2.1.13. NCR 2 is a long distance route that, when complete, will link Dover to the east with St. Austell to the west. In the local context, the route runs from Eastney Ferry port (where connections to Hayling Island can be made) and along the South Parade to Gunwharf Quays where regular ferry services to Gosport are facilitated. 2.1.14. Local cycling routes within Portsmouth are outlined within the document Active Travel (2014) which is attached within Appendix A. 2.1.15. The site has demonstrated that it is well placed for benefit from the existing pedestrian and cycling infrastructure. ACCESSIBILITY TO LOCAL SERVICES AND AMENITIES 2.1.16. Guidance given by CIHT in their publication ‘Guidelines for Providing for Journeys on Foot’ (2000) suggests that in terms of commuting, walking to school and recreational journeys, walking distances of up to 2,000m can be considered applicable to a particular origin. These figures provide a useful guide to understand expected travel distances, however it is common for users to travel longer distances than stated, especially with the introduction of improved facilities1. For non-commuter journeys, the guidance suggests that walking distances of up to 1,200m can be considered. 2.1.17. Further to this, the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB) TA 91/05 Provision for Non-Motorised Users states that a distance of two miles could easily be walked by the majority of people. Paragraphs 2.2 and 2.3 state the following: 2.2 Walking is a means of travel in its own right, but is an essential part of many other journeys, including those by car and public transport. However, there has been a decline in both the number and distance of journeys on foot since the mid-1980s. Nearly half of all journeys are less than 2 miles, a distance that could easily be walked by the majority of people.

1 Building Sustainable Transport into New Developments (DfT, 2008) – “propensity to walk or cycle is not only influenced by distance but also the quality of the experience; people may be willing to walk or cycle further where their surroundings are more attractive, safe and stimulating”

WSP ST JAMES HOSPITAL - PLOT I February 2018 Project No.: 70016874 | Our Ref No.: FTP1 Page 8 of 28 Homes England

2.3 Walking is used to access a wide variety of destinations including educational facilities, shops, and places of work, normally within a range of up to 2 miles. Walking and rambling can also be undertaken as a leisure activity, often over longer distances. 2.1.18. Assuming a cycling speed of 16kph (260m per minute); an acceptable cycling distance is about four kilometres. The National Travel Survey (2014) highlights that the average cycle trip is currently 5.1km. Transport Note 1/04 identifies the average distance travelled by non-motorised users and suggests that “journeys up to three times [the average distance] are not uncommon for regular commuters”. 2.1.19. A number of facilities are accessible on foot or by cycle from the site. Table 4 below displays various examples of several types of services / amenities within two kilometres of the site, a distance which can be covered in approximately 25 minutes on foot or 8 minutes by cycle. In addition to this, Figure 2 displays these facilities; and others, in relation to the site.

SUMMARY 2.1.20. The development site benefits from facilities and amenities being located within a close proximity. Many of these facilities are easily accessible by foot or via other methods of public transport; the high frequencies of these services mean that the public transport method that are available provide a viable alternative to the use of a private vehicle. 2.1.21. It is evident that the site offers good accessibility to local facilities, many of which can be accessed by foot or public transport. Whilst the site location itself offers opportunities to reduce dependence on car travel, the implementation of a Travel Plan aims to further influence and raise awareness for sustainable travel trips to and from the site.

TRAVEL PLAN STRATEGY

3 TRAVEL PLAN STRATEGY

MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE 3.1.1. It is expected that the FTP will be managed by an over-arching Travel Plan Co-ordinator (TPC) appointed by the dedicated site management company. It is envisaged that the FTP for Plot I will be managed by the Plot I site manager. Figure 3 shows the intended structure for the FTP for Plot I. Links between PCC and LTP3 guidance are included to identify how Travel Plan policies can be updated over time. Figure 3 - Travel Plan Management Structure – Plot I Framework Travel Plan

Portsmouth City Council

LTP3 and Travel Travel Plan Homes England Planning Coordinator Guidance

Residential Feedback Group

3.1.2. The developers will ensure that the TPC is appointed prior to first occupation of the site. The TPC role will involve: Ensuring the structure for the on-going management of the plan are set up and running effectively; Liaising with public transport operators and other service providers such as car club operators to ensure sufficient provisions in place for the development site; Co-ordinating with residential and commercial Travel Plan Representatives; Overseeing and monitoring progress with travel planning, to inform the on-going development of the plan; Liaising with Portsmouth City Council over matters relating to the monitoring and reporting of the Travel Plan; Monitoring progress against Travel Plan targets; and General administration of the Travel Plan, which involves maintenance of necessary systems, data and paperwork, consultation and promotion.

3.1.3. The performance of the Travel Plan will be reviewed by the TPC against a series of agreed targets. This will identify where additional services are required and help deliver previously agreed objectives and targets. 3.1.4. Travel Plan responsibilities will be divided between the residential and employment uses on the site. Implementation of the Travel Plan will be an important part of the development process, for all plans it must be seen as effortless by residents and staff with a structure in place prior to occupation. 3.1.5. Overall responsibility of the Travel Plan will be primarily held by the TPC, however day to day responsibility for travel planning activity at the employment uses will be held by a member of staff acting as a Travel Plan Representative (TPR) at each commercial organisation. This requirement is anticipated to be secured through tenancy agreements. The TPR will be responsible for being the first point of contact for staff on-site, they should be in a position to offer advice and provide information on travel/transport related subjects and manage the delivery of measures and initiatives for other staff members. They will also coordinate the provision of sustainable transport information to visitors. A Resident Group will be responsible for feeding back details and new suggestions to the TPC on behalf of the residential development. 3.1.6. Upon appointment of a TPC prior to occupation of the site PCC will be made aware of these details. Any subsequent changes will also be communicated to PCC.

RESIDENTIAL OBJECTIVES AND TARGETS

4 RESIDENTIAL OBJECTIVES AND TARGETS

4.1.1. The aim of the Travel Plan is to act as a tool for residents and visitors of the proposed development to help them to rethink their travel methods and to consider integrating sustainable modes into their daily trip making routines. OBJECTIVES 4.1.2. The Travel Plan objectives are set out as follows; To establish sustainable travel principles; To enable and encourage greater use of sustainable transport options over the use of a private car, through raising awareness of sustainable modes of transport; To promote a healthy and active lifestyle to residents, encouraging walking and cycling; and Raise awareness for all aspects of sustainability including cost, health and environment by the reduction of car journeys. Improving impacts of traffic congestion and air quality. 4.1.3. These objectives can be achieved by the introduction of targets and measures that aim to promote travel to and from the site via sustainable modes as an alternative to trips by a private car. This will encourage residents and visitors of the site to consider low carbon travel alternatives as part of their everyday journeys. TARGETS 4.1.4. To aid the progression of the Travel Plan a number of targets have been outlined which will be reviewed by the appointed TPC every two years. The targets are divided into those relating to delivering outputs and those relating to achieving outcomes. 4.1.5. Output Targets – These relate to the implementation of the measures to be introduced as part of the Travel Plan. They will help ensure that the development site remains on course with the delivery of different measures contained within this Travel Plan. 4.1.6. Outcome Targets – These targets relate to the effect of implementing the travel planning measures and will include figures to work towards, for example reducing the number of journeys made by car OUTPUT TARGETS 4.1.7. Table 5 illustrates the output targets that have been created for the Travel Plan. These targets relate to measures put forward in Chapter five.

OUTCOME TARGETS 4.1.8. Outcome targets will be developed based on the recorded mode-shares for the site. Initial mode share will be based on based upon the site wide travel surveys which will be completed after completion (assumed at this stage to be 75% occupation however this will be agreed with PCC). 4.1.9. In addition to the above, and to support car free lifestyles, cycle usage will be monitored. Due to the development’s location and activities to actively promote cycling, we consider it reasonable to expect an increase in walking and cycling trips from the baseline initial travel survey. In reality we would expect a higher uptake of these modes considering the accessible nature of the Plot I proposals.

RESIDENTIAL MEASURES

5 RESIDENTIAL MEASURES

5.1.1. This section details the measures incorporated into the design of the development together with the key services and facilities and the smarter travel marketing and promotional measures to be implemented as part of the development proposals this will ensure that sustainable travel behaviour can be maximised. Measures included in this chapter combine obligations prescribed in policy and suggestions, however potentially not all will be taken forward due to scheme viability / deliverability constraints. 5.1.2. The measures have been grouped into three types as follows: Measures incorporated into the sustainable design of the development; Key services and facilities; and Smarter travel marketing and promotional measures which will be implemented as part of the development proposals to ensure that sustainable travel behaviour is maximised. 5.1.3. Each is considered in turn below: SUSTAINABLE DESIGN MEASURES PERMEABILITY 5.1.4. Within the site, the pedestrian environment will be of a high quality. Access points will be provided as set out in the indicative masterplan shown in Appendix B. All surfaces and entrances have been designed to enable accommodation of wheelchair users. The pedestrian connections to the wider surrounding network are provided on main pedestrian desire lines connecting to convenient routes towards local facilities and public transport service access points within the immediate area. 5.1.5. The permeability of the site and its proximity to local shops, services and facilities will provide opportunities for residents of the development site to meet most of their daily needs on foot or bicycle, therefore reducing dependency on private cars. CAR PARKING PROVISIONS 5.1.6. The proposals will provide vehicular parking in line with the standards and guidance set out by PCC. This level of parking is considerable acceptable and as such it is considered unlikely that there will be any additional demand for parking on the local road network outside the development proposals. . CYCLE PARKING PROVISIONS 5.1.7. Secure cycle parking will be provided as part of the development in accordance with PCC Standards. The provisions for alternative transport modes within the development plan focus on making walking and cycling realistic alternatives to the private car for short journeys by ensuring good facilities and direct routes for each are provided. 5.1.8. Residential cycle parking will be located within the curtilage of the proposed units within a shed, garage or secure cycle store, as appropriate. For visitor cycle parking, spaces will be spread throughout the site to ensure accessibility for all residents. The Plot I development will look to provide a total of 248 spaces. The provision is in accordance with the standards provided by PCC. The usage of cycle parking will be monitored on an annual basis as part of the overall monitoring procedure to ensure that there is adequate space capacity to support the initiatives aimed at increasing cycling trips. KEY SERVICES AND FACILITIES 5.1.9. A number of key facilities and services to compliment the location and physical design of development will be implemented to further encourage the use of sustainable transport modes. Details of the proposed services are set out in turn below. CAR CLUB FACILITIES 5.1.10. The development will look to investigate whether some space to convert into car club facilities is viable. This is will be determined during the detailed design stage of the project.

ST JAMES HOSPITAL - PLOT I WSP Project No.: 70016874 | Our Ref No.: FTP1 February 2018 Homes England Page 21 of 28

BROADBAND ACCESS IN HOMES 5.1.11. All residential units within the development will be able to access broadband subject to signing up to an internet service provider. This would provide residents with the ability to consider working from home (promoting ‘smart working’) and online shopping. DELIVERIES AND SERVICING 5.1.12. Deliveries, servicing and refuse collections all require management to prevent the interference with the day to day running of the site. Delivery and servicing has been discussed within the Plot I TA and will allow for the introduction of sustainable delivery initiatives, which aim to minimise the impact on the surrounding area. 5.1.13. On-site servicing will take place via the carriageway, to minimise conflict with pedestrians, cyclists and other road users. The design of the access and internal carriageway allows for vehicles to enter and exit by the way of a priority junction off Locksway Road for both the eastern and western parcels. SMARTER TRAVEL MARKETING AND PROMOTION 5.1.14. Effective marketing and communications are essential for a successful Travel Plan. A number of methods can be used to distribute sustainable travel information and advice to site users. DEVELOPMENT WEBSITE 5.1.15. Sustainable travel opportunities for residents of the development will be outlined on the development website. Specific information includes local public transport timetables, details of how to show interest in additional electric vehicle charging points and contact details of the TPC. The website will help promote the Travel Plan and local sustainable travel opportunities. 5.1.16. The developer will be responsible for funding and maintaining the website. ONLINE TRAVEL INFORMATION 5.1.17. Links to relevant public transport travel information websites will be provided to residents along with the ability to connect to the internet. Such information links include: TravelLIne journey planner; specific public transport operators; and PCC web-sites; and Ticket / Travelcard ordering facility including local bus (First Group) / top up services. 5.1.18. An electronic version of the travel pack and travel leaflets including promotional details of the key services and facilities being provided will also be included upon the development of a residential website. POINT OF SALE & MARKETING SUITE 5.1.19. Prior to purchase of the dwellings, potential residents often visit a marketing website or the on-site marketing suite. The website will contain travel information and staff at the marketing suite will be trained so that they understand the purpose and workings of the travel plan and the key services and facilities provided to encourage use of non-car modes and promote car free living in an area with good public transport links. TRAVEL INFORMATION PACKS 5.1.20. Every resident will be provided with a Travel Information Pack upon occupation as this will also contain information on the facilities within the development for the duration of the Travel Plan. The pack will raise awareness of the sustainable travel initiatives being implemented through the Travel Plan including: Information on local public transport routes and service frequencies, A map showing pedestrian and cycle routes and facilities, Local cycle groups, and. Promotion of Best Practice: The Travel Pack will encourage residents to explore features such as web- based working from home to reduce the need to travel whilst providing benefits for the mobility impaired; use of car share websites such as http://www.carplus.org.uk and www.liftshare.com, membership of a car club and use of the vehicles provided within the site. 5.1.21. The Travel Pack will also invite those persons wishing to raise specific transport-related matters to discuss them with TPCs for consideration. The Travel Pack would be reviewed regularly and a copy of the most recent Travel Pack will also be displayed on community notice boards within the residential lobby of each building.

WSP ST JAMES HOSPITAL - PLOT I February 2018 Project No.: 70016874 | Our Ref No.: FTP1 Page 22 of 28 Homes England

COMMUNITY NOTICE BOARDS 5.1.22. A Travel Pack will be displayed on communal notice boards, located in convenient locations of high footfall around the development. The information displayed will include maps of the immediate local area and identify locations of cycle parking, car club services and public transport service access points. The notice boards will also be used to inform residents of any new travel initiatives or events organised by the TPC. PERSONALISED JOURNEY PLANNING 5.1.23. The TPC will provide personalised travel planning advice to residents of the development on application. The TPC will identify routes to public transport services for residents travelling to work, school and other key facilities. This will therefore encourage the use of public transport, cycling and walking as sustainable transport options locally. Details of this service will be provided in the Travel Information Packs.

MONITORING AND REVIEW

6 MONITORING AND REVIEW

6.1.1. The Travel Plan will be regularly monitored, reviewed and revised in consultation with PCC to ensure that the Travel Plan continually develops and remains appropriate through its lifetime. 6.1.2. A programme of monitoring and review will be implemented by the TPC to generate information by which the success of the Travel Plan will be evaluated. This will help to establish whether the agreed objectives and targets are being met. MONITORING 6.1.3. The TPC will arrange the initial full multi-modal travel survey to be undertaken for the residential component of the development once a threshold of 75% occupation of the site is reached. The full multi-modal travel survey will then be undertaken at the first, third and fifth year after the threshold occupation has been reached. 6.1.4. The specification of the multi-modal surveys will be agreed with PCC prior to being undertaken, however it is envisaged that they will follow the survey methodology approved for the TRICS Database (or as agreed with the Local Authority). Use of cycle parking would also be surveyed as part of the monitoring strategy to identify whether capacity is sufficient to meet demand. 6.1.5. If targets are not met at the end of the five year period, an additional survey to explore barriers to modal shift by residents would be undertaken to help identify targeted measures. ACTION PLAN 6.1.6. A programme for the implementation of the Travel Plan Measures is set out below in Table 6 individual tasks are set out alongside intended implementation dates and funding sources. It is intended to be a live document which will be updated by the TPC following consultation with the local planning authority, once the first multi- modal travel survey has been completed.
