Road Works at A602 Hertford Road, Stevenage Permit No(s): MAJ17002- Road Works at A602 Hertford Road, Stevenage What are we doing? We will be undertaking improvement works to replace the existing roundabout with a traffic signal junction. Date & Time? The work is programmed to start Tuesday 29th August 2017 and we aim to be completed by mid- February 2018. We will be working predominately during the day but there will be some overnight carriageway closures for some works. How will this affect you? There will be a number of temporary traffic layouts throughout the works including lane width reductions and footway diversions. Hertford Road will be shut from the 11th September until the completion of the works and residents will need to follow the signed diversion routes. There will be some overnight closures and a suitable alternative route will be given at all times during the closure. Refer to the site plan overleaf for details of the improvement works. For full details please see: https://www.hertfordshire.gov.uk/A602 . Works Overview Construction of works compound: The site works compound had been originally been planned to be an area close to Blenheim Way. HCC have reviewed this and it has been decided to relocate this works compound to the wide verge northeast of the roundabout adjoining Hertford Road. Works to install the site compound will commence on the 21st August. Widening of Hertford Road Bus Gate: Works to widen the bus gate are programmed 29th August to 11th September. The widening is required so there is sufficient space for 2 way traffic; so it forms part of the diversion route. From the 11th September access to Hertford road via the A602 will be shut and residents are advised to follow the diversion route shown on this document. A602/Hertford Road Junction works: Works are programmed from the 29th August till early February. Night closures of the A602 between 8pm till 5am will be required for some items of works. All closures are to be advertised in advance. Residents can refer to the diversion route on this leaflet for details. The reinstatement of the bus gate will be undertaken once the junction works are completed and following this the signalised junction will be in operation. Site Compound The site works compound had been originally been planned to be within the tree area close to Blenheim Way. Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) has reviewed this and it has been decided to relocate the works compound on the A602 east verge to the north of the roundabout adjoining Hertford Road. This will mean that site vehicles are further away from houses in Blenheim Way and these are also ecological benefits in no longer disturbing the trees in that area. Hertfordshire County Council’s Planning Department are working with us to achieve this. A602 Hertford Road Site Plan Site Compound A602 Road Closure Diversion Routes – Nights only Extent of Hertford Road Closure – (Early September to Mid February) Additional Information The work is weather dependent and from time to time unforeseen circumstances arise, any changes to the proposed start date, duration or working hours will be notified on the information boards at either end of your street, on our website www.hertfordshire.gov.uk/roadworks. Questions or concerns regarding these specific works can be answered by email: [email protected] or telephone 0300 123 4047. Neither Hertfordshire County Council, nor their contractors will approach you offering to carry out works to your property. Any cold calling of this nature by people claiming to represent Hertfordshire should be viewed with suspicion and be reported to us. As part of our commitment to the continuous improvement of our service, we would like to hear your views on works in your area. We’d be grateful if you would take the time to log on to http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Ringway_Hertfordshire and complete a short survey. We value your opinion, and measuring your perception of key areas of our service enables us to build and improve. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

  • Hertfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership
    Hertfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership Herts LEP Update to Local Transport Body Author Adam Wood Date 25th January 2018 Purpose of Report To inform the Local Transport Body regarding the LEP’s strategic infrastructure and regeneration activities, and to provide an update on strategic issues in general as they relate to the LEP. The report is arranged in 2 sections: 1. Project Updates – setting out issues and information on current key projects 2. Strategic Issues – providing an update on wider issues relevant to the LEP Please note that the major highways projects will be explained in more detail in Richard Boutal’s report. Project Updates Metropolitan Line Extension (LEP0005) Transport for London (TfL) has indicated that an additional £70m+ is required in order to meet predicted cost overspend. They have stated that they will not make up this overspend, despite the original funding agreement stating that they would, and that they are looking to local partners (DfT, HCC, WBC and LEP) to meet this cost. There has been considerable lobbying by local MPs, HCC, WBC and the LEP to secure this shortfall. At the government’s suggestion, just before Christmas HCC submitted an application to the Homes & Communities Agency (HCA) under their Housing Infrastructure Fund for the shortfall of £70m+. We understand that the government is sympathetic to the application, with funding potentially channeled through DfT, but any further shortfall in addition to the £70m+ would have to be picked up by TfL. We believe that TfL has rejected this proposal but discussions are progressing. Project Summary Applicant Transport for London Total LEP investment £87,550,000 Location South West Herts, Watford Current FY Profile: Investment £20,030,000 Expected £0 Funding Source DfT & SLGF Capital/Revenue Capital Project Status Full Board Approval Maylands Growth Corridor Study (LEP0022) The Maylands Growth Study is now completed.

  • Executive Summary
    2015 Air Quality Updating and Screening Assessment for North Hertfordshire District Council In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management September 2015 North Hertfordshire District Council Local Authority David Carr – Environmental Protection Officer Officer Department Environmental Protection Council Offices, Gernon Road, Address Letchworth Garden City, Hertfordshire, SG3 6JF Telephone 01462 474 263 e-mail [email protected] Report Reference NHDC USA 2015 number Date September 2015 North Hertfordshire District Council - LAQM USA 2015 1 North Hertfordshire District Council Executive Summary As required by Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 North Hertfordshire District Council (NHDC) has undertaken the 2015 Local Air Quality Management Updating and Screening Assessment (USA) of air quality for the district. This USA report is a review of air pollution measurement data compared to the national air quality objectives for human health. In addition the report is a review of any new or existing potential sources of air pollution and an assessment of their potential impacts on air quality for the population of the district. NHDC assessed new and existing sources of air pollution from within the district and did not identify any new, or previously unrecognised existing, sources that were likely to be responsible for national air quality objectives for human health being exceeded. NHDC monitored appropriate locations within the district in 2014 and with the exception of two areas of the district the air quality objectives were not exceeded. Therefore, although the majority of the population of the district is not exposed to air pollution at a level above the national air quality objectives for human health there are two areas where this does not appear to be the case.
