    Safe roads, reliable journeys, informed travellers M4 junctions 3 to 12 smart motorway TR010019 7.1 Planning statement 5(2) (q) Revision 0 March 2015 Planning Act 2008 Infrastructure Planning (Applications: Prescribed Forms and Procedure) Regulations 2009 Volume 7.0 Volume An executive agency of the Department for Transport HIGHWAYS AGENCY – M4 JUNCTIONS 3 TO 12 SMART MOTORWAY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Application This Planning Statement relates to an application (the "Application") made by the Highways Agency (the "Agency") to the Secretary of State for Transport (the "Secretary of State") pursuant to the Planning Act 2008 ("PA 2008"). The Application is for the M4 (Junctions 3 to 12) (Smart Motorway) Development Consent Order ("DCO") which would grant development consent, authorising the construction, operation and maintenance of a smart motorway between the M4 between junctions 3 to 12 (the "Scheme"), along with the compulsory acquisition of all land necessary to enable this. The Scheme The Scheme lies wholly within England and includes the alteration and improvement of a highway for which the Secretary of State is the highway authority. The area of development is greater than 15 hectares, and the improvement of the highway is considered to have the potential for a significant effect on the environment. Hence the Scheme is classified as a nationally significant infrastructure project ("NSIP"). The Scheme’s key objectives are to: a) reduce congestion, smooth the flow of traffic to improve journey times and make journeys more reliable; b) support and enhance the role of the M4 as a major national and inter-urban regional transport artery; c) support the economy and facilitate economic growth within the regions, by providing much needed capacity on the motorway; d) continue to deliver a high level of safety performance of the network using smart motorway techniques; and e) deliver environmental improvements and mitigation where appropriate and required.
