The A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon Improvement Scheme
The Parish Council of Offord Cluny and Offord Darcy The A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon Improvement Scheme Submission to the Planning Inspectorate (DCO Registration ID 10030393). Summary We continue to assert that regarding the proposed Huntingdon Southern Bypass, the whole exercise is misguided and unnecessary. That by upgrading the A14 to modern A-road standards, with proper slip roads for entry and exit and the provision of a hard shoulder, by dualling the A428 between St Neots and Caxton and improving the A428/A1 link at the Black Cat roundabout, there will be a greater improvement in traffic movement in the area as a whole, at much lower cost. The fact that according to HE (Consultation Report 5.1 p64) the new A14 will not have hard shoulders either, would seem to indicate that the entire scheme at a cost of £1.5bn will not actually solve the root cause of the current problem! This suggestion, which has also been made by a number of other stakeholders, has been consistently ignored by Highways England throughout this entire process, and indeed throughout the previous A14 (“CHUMMS”) proposal dating from around 2003. Mike Evans, representing Highways England was being somewhat disingenuous when he asserted at the Planning Inspectorate Preliminary Meeting that he was unaware that such a proposal existed. Delays on the current A14 between Huntingdon and Cambridge are mainly due to breakdowns, accidents and the weight of rush-hour traffic trying to get into Cambridge at the Girton interchange. The impact of breakdowns is exacerbated by the lack of a hard shoulder, making it impossible to pull offending vehicles off the main carriageway in a timely manner. -

Response by the Parish Council of Offord Cluny and Offord Darcy to the Examining Authority’S (Exa’S) First Written Questions and Requests (Ref: 10030393)
Response by the Parish Council of Offord Cluny and Offord Darcy to The Examining Authority’s (ExA’s) first written questions and requests (ref: 10030393) Q1.1.5 Applicant Local authorities Parish Councils Please explain when, how and where air quality would be monitored or why no monitoring is proposed with particular reference to NOx, NO2, CO, PM10 and PM2.5. Q1.1.8 Applicant Local authorities Parish Councils Please explain how the assessment of air quality has taken into account the proximity of the proposed road scheme to sensitive receptors including housing and schools and the mitigation measures proposed during the operational phase in such locations? Where and how would these measures be secured? Q1.1.10 Applicant Local authorities Parish Councils Table 8.12 of the ES concludes that during the operational phase the overall scheme would have no significant impacts on air quality. Can the applicant explain further how it has reached its conclusion of no significant air quality impacts?? PC As far as we are aware there have been no efforts to monitor air quality in the region of the Offords during this phase (ie post-2010) of the proposal. The Environmental Statement, published in October 2009 made two mentions of the Offords – 10.3.22 A further monitoring survey of NO2 was undertaken between March 2007 and March 2008 The survey was in the form of a monitoring tube at location designated “WSP22” described as “On 3 post at entrance to field, north of Offord Cluny” The NO2 level was recorded as 27.0 µg/m compared with AQS Objective and EU permitted levels of 40.0 µg/m3 although we believe that these permitted levels may have been adjusted downwards since then. -
