  • 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.

Centenary Programme Talks, Walks, Tours, Family Activities and more Celebrating 100 years of Birmingham Civic Society Welcome to the city beautiful Celebrating 100 years of Birmingham Civic Society Birmingham Civic Society was founded on 10th June 1918 partly through a desire to create a better society following the First World War. Its primary focus was to influence the post-war regeneration of the city. In its early years the Civic Society successfully bought land to create open spaces establishing parks in places such as Northfield and Kings Norton. The Society also provided designs and funds to make improvements to several existing parks including Aston, Handsworth and Cannon Hill Parks. Over the century the Society campaigned to save a number of historic properties and organisations including The Rep Theatre and safeguarding Birmingham Cathedral’s Burne-Jones stained glass windows during the Second World War. In the 1950s the Society erected the first of its Blue Plaques which honour significant people who have lived or worked in the city. This scheme continues today and four new plaques will be created in this centenary year. Today the Society continues to lobby for an improved urban environment and strongly promotes active citizenship. The Next Generation Award encourages young people to play a role in the future of their city and Renaissance Awards recognise the most successful conservation projects in the city. The City Beautiful celebrates the centenary of the Birmingham Civic Society. A full programme of events has been created in collaboration with many of the diverse organisations Birmingham boasts.
