HISTORIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT November 2013 Revb Contents MIDLAND METRO BIRMINGHAM CITY CENTRE EXTENSION (EXTENSION TO CENTENARY SQUARE) Colmore Row and Environs Conservation Area - Pinfold St, Victoria Square & Paradise St HISTORIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT November 2013 RevB Contents 1.0 Introduction 2.0 Background 3.0 Context 4.0 Identification of Heritage Assets and Setting 5.0 Chronological Development 6.0 Assessment of setting and contribution to significance of the heritage assets. 7.0 Assessing the effect of the proposed development on the significance of the assets and identifying any opportunities to maximise enhancement and minimise harm. 8.0 Summary 1 1.0 Introduction 1.1 This Heritage Assessment considers the impact of the proposed Metro line extension on part of Colmore Row conservation area that includes Pinfold Street, the south western section of Victoria Square and Paradise Street. 1.2 The purpose of this document is to accompany the application for the discharge of conditions in relation to hard and soft landscape works, details pursuant to the Town Hall stop, along with the re- location of the GP Telephone Boxes which will be dealt with as a Prior Notification application. 2.0 Background 2.1 The Midland Metro is a light rail rapid transit system that operates between Birmingham Snow Hill and Wolverhampton St Georges. The proposed works are linked to the extension of Midland Metro Line One to Birmingham City Centre. 2.2 The extension of the Line from Birmingham Snow Hill to Five Ways and Edgbaston was approved under a Transport and Works Act (TWA) Order (The Midland Metro (Birmingham City Centre) Extension Order 2005) and deemed Planning Permission granted under the reference TWA/03/APP/04. 2.3 The route of the Metro runs along Pinfold Street and passes through the southwestern section of Victoria Square then runs to the south of the Town Hall along Paradise Street, then on to Broad Street where it terminates at Centenary Square. 2.4 The works require adjustment of ground levels at the northern end of Pinfold Street to address engineering requirements. The alignment of the route also requires adjustment of steps and walls within Victoria Square. 2.5 A Metro stop is proposed immediately to the south of the Town Hall. 2 3.0 Context 3.1 The National Planning Policy Framework states that “In determining applications, local planning authorities should require an applicant to describe the significance of any heritage assets affected, including any contribution made by their setting.” Howl Associates has been commissioned to undertake a Heritage Assessment to address these issues as part of as part of the discharge of conditions for the TWA Deemed Planning Permission and a Prior Notification application for the relocation of GP telephone boxes. 3.2 This document therefore aims to: 3.2.1 Identify the heritage asset (and its setting) that has the potential to be affected by the proposed development. 3.2.2 Provide a brief overview of the chronological development of the asset, and its significance. 3.2.3 Assess whether, how and to what degree these settings make a contribution to the significance of the heritage asset. 3.2.4 Assess the effect of the proposed development on the significance of the asset. 3.2.5 Identify any opportunities to maximise enhancement and minimise harm. 3 4.0 Identification of heritage asset and setting Colmore Row & Environs 4.1 The key map opposite shows the location of the Conservation Area (shaded in green) heritage assets that lie adjacent the route of the proposed Metro. 4.2 Listing and heritage asset descriptions. 4.2.1 Colmore Row and Environs Conservation Area Colmore Row and Environs Conservation Council House Area was designated in October 1971 and extended in March and then in July 1985.

  • 7.3 Traffic and Transport Impacts
    1 file:///D:/Environmental%20Statement/7.3.htm 7.3 TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT IMPACTS 7.3.1 Introduction This section of the ES addresses the potential impacts arising from generated construction traffic and construction works on the local road network and road users. For the purpose of this assessment, data associated with the number of vehicle movements during the construction of the scheme have been estimated based upon experience of other projects of a similar nature. During construction, impacts may arise from additional works traffic on the road network and disruption due to temporary road or lane closures required to accommodate the works. Construction traffic is likely to be generated by the following activities: · construction workers accessing and egressing worksites; · the supply of construction materials; · the removal of waste; · the mobilisation of plant, which may include abnormal loads; and · other activities, including visitors and service vehicles. Generated construction traffic can lead to impacts in terms of: · changes in traffic conditions (in particular, where works also require temporary road/lane closures); · changes in traffic-related noise levels and air quality, which have been assessed in Sections 7.4 and 7.5 respectively; · access to private and commercial properties; and · changes in conditions for pedestrians and cyclists. 7.3.2 Assessment Methodology The overall objective of the assessment is to estimate the impact of changes in traffic resulting from the construction of the scheme. The maintenance of transport reliability and the potential for temporary re-routeing during construction is also assessed. The assessment criteria used to identify significant impacts arising from changes in traffic are provided in Section 6.3.2.
