269 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

 All Travellers: Motorised Travellers (MT) (drivers and passengers of both public and private vehicles) and Non-Motorised Users (NMU) (now referred to as Walking, Cycling and Horse-riding (WCH) users) (pedestrians, cyclists and equestrians, including amenity and journey length);

 Communities: including effects on private and community land and community severance; and

 People: including the local economy and human health.

12.2.3 Unless stated otherwise, sensitivity criteria, magnitude of impact and level of significance is assigned according to Tables 2.1, 2.2 and 2.4 respectively in DMRB Volume 11, Section 2, Part 5225.

ALL TRAVELLERS

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS: VIEW FROM THE ROAD

12.2.4 DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9 describes 'Views from the Road' as "…the extent to which travellers, including drivers are exposed to the different types of scenery through which a route passes."

12.2.5 Using the category description guidance provided in DMRB, view from the road has been assessed according to travellers’ ability to see the surrounding landscape on a four-point scale, namely: no view, restricted view, intermittent view, open view, as described in DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9 (Paragraph 2.6).

12.2.6 There is no specific assessment ‘significance criteria’ or ‘magnitude of impact’ assessment frameworks associated with ‘view from the road’ set out in DMRB, therefore a qualitative assessment using professional judgment, and based on the above criteria, is considered appropriate. In the absence of specific guidance, a four-point descriptive scale (No change, Minor, Moderate or Major) will be used.

12.2.7 The magnitude of impact on views from the road has been assessed based on the change expected as a result of the scheme, using the criteria in Table 12.2.

TABLE 12.2: DMRB IMPACT CRITERIA FOR VIEWS OF THE ROAD

12.2.8 Note: Input from the Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment (LVIA) is required to address the impact of the scheme on views from the road.

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS: DRIVER STRESS

12.2.9 The assessment of driver stress is in accordance with the guidance contained within DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9. The assessment of the potential effects on driver stress due to decreased delays, or improved road safety is based upon the findings of the traffic work being undertaken for the scheme.

12.2.10 There are three main components of driver stress: frustration (due to delays), fear of potential accidents and uncertainty relating to the route being followed. The main factors leading to fear are the presence of other vehicles, inadequate sight distances and the likelihood of pedestrians (particularly children) stepping onto the road. Other factors include inadequate lighting, narrow roads, roadworks and poorly maintained road surfaces.

12.2.11 The measurable aspect of Driver Stress has been determined in accordance with the DMRB guidance Volume 11 Section 3, Part 9, which provides advice on categorising the magnitude of impact of stress as High, Moderate or Low based upon speeds and flows during peak hour flows over at least 1km of a route. All links with traffic travelling at less than 60 km/hr are considered to result in high stress.

12.2.12 Driver stress has been calculated by comparing average hourly flow per lane, and average vehicle speeds during morning (AM) and evening (PM) peak hours, against thresholds for single carriageways provided in the DMRB guidance Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9 Table 3 (P 4/2).

WALKING, CYCLING AND HORSE-RIDING

12.2.13 The assessment for WCH has been undertaken in accordance with the guidance for a Simple Assessment in the WCH component of DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 8224. It focuses on changes in journey lengths and times, and the effect on the amenity value of journeys. This assessment has considered:

 The impact of the scheme on the journeys that pedestrians, cyclists and equestrians make in its locality;  The impact on existing usage of the community facilities and routes by pedestrians and others; and  Changes in safety and amenity value of routes which may be affected by the scheme route.

12.2.14 The assessment has involved a desk study to identify likely WCH activity during construction and operation, as well as how local community facilities are likely to be affected by the scheme and the potential adverse and beneficial effects.

12.2.15 The level of WCH severance has used the criteria set out in DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 8224 (Paragraph 6.1) which categorises the level of severance as Slight, Moderate or Severe.

271 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

COMMUNITIES

COMMUNITY SEVERANCE

12.2.16 The level of community severance has used the criteria set out in DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, part 8, Chapter 5 – Community Severance. The key community facilities have been identified through a combination of a desk based study of aerial imagery and information from local authority websites.

PRIVATE AND COMMUNITY LAND TAKE

12.2.17 A qualitative high-level desk based assessment has been carried out in accordance with DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 6, in order to:

 Confirm the number of properties potentially affected by demolition and/or land take and categorise the impacts on affected land accordingly.  Assess the value of identified community assets likely to be affected by land take, including an indication of the amount of public use, where possible.

PEOPLE

LOCAL ECONOMY

12.2.18 A qualitative high-level desk based assessment has been carried out for both the local economy and tourism and recreation, using publicly available date. There is no formal guidance on the assessment of the local economy or tourism and recreation, so these assessments have been based on professional judgement.

HEALTH

12.2.19 Human health receptors have been assigned a sensitivity based on the criteria details in Table 12.3. There is currently no formal measure of sensitivity associated with health impacts and this table has been developed based on professional judgement and experience.

TABLE 12.3 HUMAN HEALTH SENSITIVITY

Receptor Justification Value

Very High Receptors that have no capacity to experience a potential impact without incurring substantial change in population or health status. This is more likely to be the case:

 In the most deprived or isolated communities.  In designated air quality management areas.  And/or where individuals experience severe accessibility restrictions.  And/or where communities are extremely reliant on limited services/assets with no alternatives.

High Receptors that have a very restricted/limited capacity to experience a potential impact without incurring substantial change in population or health status. This is more likely to be the case:

272 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

TABLE 12.3 HUMAN HEALTH SENSITIVITY

 In the more deprived or isolated communities.  In designated air quality management areas or areas of known poor air quality.  And/or where individuals experience some accessibility restrictions  And/or where communities are reliant on limited services/assets with few alternatives.  Routes frequently used by WCH for utility journeys such as commuting, or by vulnerable travellers (for example; elderly, school children, and people with disability).  Land which is of high importance to business operations and key local development sites.

Medium Receptors have a limited capacity to experience a potential impact without incurring substantial change in population or health status. This is more likely to be the case:

 Where there are more affluent or connected communities.  In areas known to have lower levels of medium air quality.  And/or where individuals experience some accessibility restrictions  And/or where communities are able to choose between a narrow range of service/asset alternatives.  Routes moderately used by WCH for recreational / leisure purposes (for example; regional trails).  Land which is of moderate importance to business operations and allocated sites.

Low Receptors have an adequate capacity to experience a potential impact without incurring substantial change in population or health status. This is more likely to be the case:

 In more affluent communities.  In areas known to have good air quality.  And/or where individuals experience few accessibility restrictions.  And/or where communities are able to choose between a larger range of service/asset alternatives.  Routes sometimes used by WCH for recreational/leisure purposes (for example; local routes).  Land which is of moderate importance to business operations and allocated sites.

Negligible Receptors that have the capacity to experience a potential impact without incurring change in population or health status. This is more likely to be the case:

 In the most affluent communities.  In areas known to have very good air quality.  And/or where individuals experience no accessibility restrictions.  And/or where communities are able to choose freely between a wide range of service/asset alternatives.  Routes not / infrequently used by the WCH for recreational purpose.  Land which is of no importance to business operations and unallocated development sites.

273 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

SIGNIFICANCE OF EFFECTS

12.2.20 The available published DMRB guidance (Volume 11, Section 3, Parts 6, Part 8 and Part 9) does not specifically include methods for determining the magnitude of impacts considered, or for measuring the sensitivity of the receptors, to these impacts. In the absence of a DMRB methodology, professional judgement has been used to determine whether the impacts are:

 Adverse or beneficial;  Long-term or short-term;  During construction or operation; and  Whether the effect is significant or not significant.

12.2.21 The following sections describe the process that has been adopted to determine the sensitivity, magnitude and the overall likely significance of the effects, in relation to population and health.

SENSITIVITY

12.2.22 The sensitivity of receptors for population and health has been judged on their perceived capacity to absorb any proposed changes. This approach has been developed based on professional judgement, with the criteria describing the sensitivity of receptors identified in Table 12.4.

TABLE 12.4: POPULATION AND HEALTH SENSITIVITY CRITERIA

SENSITIVITY CRITERIA VALUE

 HIGH An already vulnerable receptor with very little capacity and means to absorb changes;  No alternative facilities, access arrangements or opportunities are available within an easily accessible distance; or  A highly or frequently accessed resource

 MEDIUM A non-vulnerable receptor with limited capacity to change;  A limited range of alternatives facilities, access arrangements or opportunities are available within an easily accessible distance; and  A moderately, or semi frequently accessed resource

 LOW A non-vulnerable receptor with sufficient capacity and means to change;  A wide range of alternative facilities, access arrangements or opportunities are available within an easily accessible distance; and  An infrequently accessed resource

 NEGLIGIBLE No vulnerable receptors, facilities or public access routes identified

MAGNITUDE

12.2.23 DMRB guidance Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9 has been followed to define the magnitude of impact on views from the road and driver stress using the criteria outlined above in Table 12.2 and DMRB guidance Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9 Table 3 (P 4/2).

274 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.2.24 Where there is no available DMRB guidance to define or categorise the magnitude of effects for Population and Health. Table 2.2 Magnitude of Impact and Typical Descriptors as detailed in DMRB Volume 11 Section 2 Part 5 HA 205/08225 in combination with professional judgement has been used.

SIGNIFICANCE

12.2.25 The significance of each type of effect has been determined to be significant or not significant, based on the DMRB guidance presented in Volume 11, Section 2, Part 5 Table 2.4.

12.3 ASSESSMENT ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS

12.3.1 The assessment of the WCH route amenity relies on qualitative descriptions by the assessor which is subjective. There is also a degree of subjectivity in the assessment of views from the road. Where subjective assessments are presented, attempts to reconcile against evidence has been made throughout.

12.3.2 DMRB Volume 11 Section 3 Part 8 methodology was published in 1993 and some aspects may not be as relevant to the assessment of road scheme today.

12.3.3 The assessment relies on data provided by third parties which are the most up-to-date available at the time of the assessment. No significant changes or limitation in these datasets have been identified that would affect the robustness of the assessment for EIA purposes.

12.3.4 Vulnerable groups have been assumed to be present throughout the study area.

12.3.5 The assessment of health in EIA has, in the past, focussed on impacts identified through other environmental topic assessments, such as air quality or land contamination. The revised EIA regulations (2017) are interpreted as requiring a wider consideration of human health impacts. A formal methodology for the assessment of health in EIA is yet to be prepared or adopted. This assessment has made use of professional expertise on the assessment of social and population impacts in relation to road schemes and guidance issued by the professional body for environmental assessment, IEMA227.

12.3.6 Changes to the scheme (following the scoping of the assessment) during the preliminary design stage has meant that a greater amount of agricultural land will now be required by the scheme. Further works will be undertaken regarding local agricultural business viability to inform detailed design and compensation requirements. The information gained from these surveys will inform the detailed design stage. The assessment in this chapter assumes that access to these agricultural fields will be maintained during the construction. Any information relating to temporary changes to access will be passed on to land owners and farming tenants as soon as they are known.

12.4 STUDY AREA

ALL TRAVELLERS

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS

12.4.1 The study area for both views from the road and driver stress (in compliance with DMRB guidance within Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9) for Motorised Travellers (MT) comprises the roads, connecting roads, Public Rights of Way (PRoW) and non-designated routes located within 1km of the scheme extent.

WALKING, CYCLING AND HORSE-RIDING

12.4.2 The assessment of effects on WCH considers the impact of the scheme on local journeys made by people on the non-designated public routes in terms of delay and amenity value. The study area of 1km for the assessment of impact on WCHs includes: the PRoW and WCH routes directly affected by the scheme, and any feeder PRoWs between likely destinations, as described in DMRB guidance within Volume 11, Sections 3, Part 8224.

COMMUNITIES

COMMUNITY SEVERANCE

12.4.3 The study area of 1km for community severance includes communities that may potentially be directly affected by the scheme through severance from community facilities and increased journey lengths. These would include communities directly connected by the Shared Use Path and MT routes.

PRIVATE AND COMMUNITY LAND TAKE

12.4.4 Community land is any area of public open space and other facilities such as schools, hospitals, libraries and recreation facilities relied upon for community health and well-being. The study area consists of the land parcels required to accommodate the scheme, as described in DMRB guidance within Volume 11, Section 3, Part 6222.

12.4.5 The study area for ‘private assets and demolition consists of the land parcels required to accommodate the scheme. Figure 12.1 shows all receptors within the 1km study area of the scheme.

PEOPLE

LOCAL ECONOMY

12.4.6 The study area for ‘local economy’ will consist of the administrative areas of the Local Authorities that the scheme extent lies within, Wealden and Lewes Districts.

12.4.7 The study area for ‘tourism and recreation’ includes any facilities within 1km radial study area around the scheme extent, this area has been selected based on professional judgement.

HUMAN HEALTH

12.4.8 The study area for human health is comprised of the communities living within 200m of the scheme extent and its affected road network (shown in Figure 5.2 – Figure 5.6 in Chapter 5 – Air Quality). This has been based on the extent and characteristics of the scheme, and the characteristics and sensitivity of the affected wards.

276 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.5 BASELINE CONDITIONS

ALL TRAVELLERS

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS: VIEWS FROM THE ROAD

12.5.1 The study area of a 1km buffer around the scheme is shown on Figure 12.1. The surrounding landscape is described below.

12.5.2 The scheme is partially located within the boundaries of the South Downs National Park (SDNP), and is located close to two Grade II Listed Registered Parks and Gardens:

 Firle Place (located within the 1km study area; directly adjacent to the scheme extent);  Wooton Manor (within the 1km study area boundary, located directly adjacent to the scheme extent); and

12.5.3 The SDNP is a relatively undeveloped and scenic landscape, comprising chalk downs land. The study area contains varying degrees of screening elements along the A27 that obscure or block the views. However, panoramic views are available from elevated vehicles or through gaps within vegetation allowing for wider and more open views. The majority of existing junctions along the A27 are surrounded by vegetation consisting of grassland, scrub, hedgerows, trees and woodlands.

12.5.4 There are four Landscape Character Areas within 500m of the scheme extent including;

 Selmeston, Chalvington and Ripe: Located to the north of the A27, the key characteristics of this landscape area include historic villages, church focal points, medium to large scale arable and pastoral fields as well as panoramic open views southwards toward the SDNP.  Arlington: To the north of the A27, key characteristics include views southwards to the ridges of the SDNP, River Cuckmere valley as well as small settlements and hamlets.  Wilmington Green: Located to the north of the A27, key characteristics include open views southwards towards the ridges of the SNDP, patchwork of arable and pastoral fields which are lined with mature hedgerows and scattered farmsteads.  Ouse to Eastbourne: This is the key character area of the SDNP. This character area comprises of a lush lowland landscape of mixed arable and pasture, historic picturesque parkland landscapes as well as hedgerows with mature hedgerow oaks which create an intimate and secluded landscape.

12.5.5 The loss of landscape features such as hedges and trees as well as the alteration to natural and cultural heritage features within character areas can change the amenity of the local area and linear views along the A27 corridor. The small settlements of Firle, Selmeston, Alciston, Berwick and Wilmington are near to, or situated on, the A27, and all have historic churches as focal points.

12.5.6 Considering the above, existing views from the road are judged to be of high sensitivity to change.

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS: DRIVER STRESS

12.5.7 Driver stress is defined within DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 9 as the adverse mental and physiological effects experienced by a driver traversing a road network. Driver stress has three main components: frustration, fear of potential accidents and uncertainty relating to the route being followed. The extent of stress induced varies between individual drivers due to variations in their skill, experience, temperament, knowledge of the route and state of health.

277 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.5.8 The A27 currently is the only east-west trunk road south of the M25. The section between Lewes and Polegate is single carriageway and experiences peak hour congestion, poor journey time reliability, lack of resilience and a poor safety record.

12.5.9 Journeys on the Strategic Road Network (SRN) and local roads are disrupted by below average journey time reliability, poor safety, delay, low speeds and congestion, with drivers diverting to unsuitable local roads. Polegate junction is a key pinch point, where there are a high number of accidents due to poor alignments and visibility. Overall, driver stress on this section of the SRN is considered to be high (Appendix 12.2). Table 12.5 outlines the Average Annual Daily Traffic data228 at five locations along the A27 corridor. Traffic volumes at the five locations have been increasing since 2011, with the Gainsbourgh Lane location being the busiest. Additionally, traffic along the Polegate Bypass are particularly high when compared to 2011 levels.,

12.5.10 The A27 passes through, or near, a number of residential and commercial areas, which increases the likelihood of WCHs crossing the road to access these areas. The route also passes in close proximity to several community facilities, such as schools and playing fields, which further increases the likelihood of WCH using the road. These factors can be expected to increase the level of fear felt by motorised travellers using the road.

12.5.11 Considering the above, driver stress is judges to be of high sensitivity to change.

WALKERS, CYCLISTS AND HORSE-RIDERS

12.5.12 There are several PRoW which are located adjacent to, or intersect with, sections of the existing A27. These are considered within this assessment and are shown on Figure 12.2. There are a range of PRoWs that terminate at or cross the A27 within the scheme extent or in the near vicinity (Figure 12.2).

12.5.13 The scheme has the potential to permanently or temporarily affect the users of these existing PRoWs. In addition, a section of the Sustrans Regional Route 90 is located on the A27 corridor near Firle. A stretch has been identified as traffic free on the National Cycle Network, whilst another section is on road. National Cycle Network Route 2 is located within the 1km study area and runs through Drusillas Roundabout. This route also crosses the A27 at Station Road and Alfriston Road, leading to Drusillas Park. This route is popular amongst cyclist from the nearby towns of Lewes and Polegate. There are no dedicated equestrian facilities along the A27.

278 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.5.14 The South Downs Way Walking trail is a 160km long National Trail that follows the chalk escarpment and ridges of the South Downs. The historic trail runs from Winchester in Hampshire to Eastbourne in East Sussex, crossing the A27 at grade to the west of Lewes. The South Downs Way is located within 2km of the scheme.

12.5.15 At the western end of the study area there is an un-segregated shared cycle / footway that runs parallel to and north of the A27 between Lacys Hill and Burgh lane, approximately 1.8km from the scheme extent.

12.5.16 Daily manual WCH traffic surveys229 were commissioned for two days in December 2016 (Tuesday 6th and Wednesday 7th). The survey covered the following junctions where pedestrians and cycling movements were recorded at each arm and direction:

 Junction of The Street/ A27 (Selmeston);

 Junction of Bopeep Lane/ A27 (between Selmestion and Alciston);

 Drusillas Roundabout;

 Junction of Lewes Road Thornwell Road and The Street (Wilmington);

 Access Roads to the Wishing Well and Crossways (Wilmington);

 Junction of Lewes Road and Jevington Road; and

 Junction of Lewes Road and Brown Jack Avenue (near Polegate).

12.5.17 Based on the survey229, (results shown in Table 12.6 and Table 12.7), there is currently a very small number of cyclists using the A27 with an average of six per day travelling along the A27 eastbound and eight per day along the A27 westbound. The survey also shows that on average, 45 cyclists cross the A27 on a normal day, mainly across the Drusillas roundabout at the junction of the A27 / Thronwell Road / The Street. The north-south route at Drusillas roundabout forms part of the Sustrans Route 2230 and is supported by a toucan crossing (crossing for pedestrians and cyclist) to the west of the junction.

12.5.18 The NMU Context Report229 concluded that daily utility journeys are likely to be limited as the settlements along the A27 corridor are relatively far apart, small, and provide relatively little in the way of services and employment. For example, none of the primary schools along the A27 corridor, within the study area are within walking distance of other settlements.

12.5.19 As shown in Table 12.6 and Table 12.7, daily utility journeys are likely to be limited as the settlements along the corridor are relatively far apart and small and provide relatively little in the way of services or employment. Additionally, there are currently very few cyclists using the A27 with an average of six per day travelling along the A27 eastbound and eight per day travelling along the A27 westbound. On average, 45 cyclists cross the A27 on a normal day mainly across Drusillas roundabout and the junction of the A27/ Thornwell Road/ The Street.

12.5.20 Even though the data shows low NMU survey counts for pedestrians and cyclists, users are given a medium sensitivity rating due to additional other nationally designated trails and the SDNP. A

280 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

medium sensitivity had been assigned because of the proven low use of the A27 corridor by cyclists and pedestrians.

COMMUNITIES

COMMUNITY SEVERANCE

12.5.21 The A27 is currently perceived to be a barrier to movement for local communities, due to the poor-quality pedestrian and cycle facilities across and along it, which result in severance issues231. One of the primary objectives of the scheme is the need to reduce the isolating effect of the A27 corridor on local communities.

12.5.22 The main settlements along the A27 corridor include Lewes and Polegate. Smaller settlements which have the potential to be affected by the scheme include: Beddingham, Glyde, Firle, Alciston, Selmeston, Berwick and Wilmington. Most journeys between these communities are likely to be made by motorised vehicles using the A27 and the surrounding local road network.

12.5.23 A railway line runs parallel to the north of the A27 with stations at Lewes, Glynde, Berwick and Polegate. Glynde Railway Station is approximately 900m north of the Lacys Hill Junction. Berwick Railway Station is approximately 1.6km north of the Drusilla’s roundabout at Station Road and Alfriston Road.

12.5.24 The A27 is a bus route. Twelve bus services use this stretch of the A27 as part of their route (services 36, 28, 40, 42, 44, 45, 51, 51X, 125, 126, 143 and H1). Three of the services operate seven days a week with two more operating all weekdays and the remaining seven services working an assortment of days. Access to these public transport nodes may be affected by the works, either temporarily or permanently.

12.5.25 The existing community links crossing the scheme have been assessed as having a medium sensitivity value.

PRIVATE AND COMMUNITY LAND TAKE

12.5.26 Private property is defined as land outside the existing highways boundary that does not accommodate public space or any other community facility or asset. It can be residential, commercial, industrial or agricultural in nature.

12.5.27 Residential properties are found in the main settlements of Lewes and Polegate, and in the smaller settlements of, Beddingham, Glynde, Firle, Alciston, Selmeston, Berwick, Wilmington and Wilmington Green. There are also a number of isolated properties and farms within the immediate vicinity the A27. These include Comps Farm, Preston Court Farm, Stations Farm, Gibraltar Farm, Dairy Farm, Newhouse Farm, Middle Farm, Lower Tilton Farm, New Barn Farm, Church Farm, Berwick Court Farm, Street Farm, Folkington Manor Farm.

COMMUNITY LAND

12.5.28 Community land is any land used by members of the public including any area of public open space. Community facilities, as specified by the DMRB232, are key facilities that are relied upon for community health and wellbeing and include doctors’ surgeries, hospitals, schools, shops, and recreational areas. Figure 12.1 shows the range of community facilities located within the study area. Most community facilities are located within Polegate, as well as the smaller communities along the A27 route including Berwick, Selmeston, Alciston, Glynde and Wilmington.

12.5.29 Community facilities within the 1km study area, including those located in Polegate and Lewes include:

 Two General Practitioner (GP) Practice (Downlands Medical Centre and Manor Park Medical Centre);

 One Opticians (Barracloughs the Opticians);

 Two Primary Schools;

 One Secondary School; and

 Two Foodstores.

12.5.30 As stated in DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 6 Land Use222, public open space is defined as land laid out as a public garden or used for the purposes of public recreation or any land being a disused burial ground. Open Space can include allotments, amenity areas, cemeteries, natural areas, parks and gardens, play areas and sport pitches. There is a wide range of sports, civic amenity and recreational open spaces available for both public and private use within Wealden and its neighbouring authorities. The Wealden Open Space Study 2016-2018233 identifies areas of open space within the Polegate, Willingdon and Jevington area (1.7ha allotments, 0.34ha amenity greenspace and 9.32ha park and recreational ground)233.

12.5.31 The small number of open / green spaces which are directly adjacent to the scheme (within the 1km study area) include:

 Selmeston Village Hall and playing fields, located approximately 30m to the north of the scheme;

 Selmeston War Memorial, located approximately 60m south east of the scheme;

PEOPLE

LOCAL ECONOMY

12.5.33 There are a number of local businesses within 1km of the scheme extent. These include Chessmur Building Contractors, Cobwebs Bed and Breakfast (B&B), Fly Sussex Paragliding, South Downs Hang Gliding, Dairy Farmhouse Accommodation, Firle Campsite, Motorline, Middle Farm, National Collection of Cider and Perry, Semeston Service Station, The Barley Mow Pub, Rosetta Cottage B&B, Fairfeild Cottages, The Rose Cottage Inn, The Cricketers Arms, The English Wine Centre, Dawes House B&B, Drusillas Park Zoo, Pet Favourites, Early Oak Reproductions, Partners Tea and Coffee, 4 Living, South Coast Performance Car Service, The Wishing Well Tea Room, Crossways B&B, Southern Commercial Sales Motor Vehicle Dealer, The Giant’s Rest B&B and ARS Recovery Towing Service. There is also a garage and village store at the junction of the A27 and The Street, Selmeston.

12.5.34 There are also a range of local businesses and supermarkets located within Polegate. For example, a Co-Operative supermarket, Eastbourne Polegate Premier Inn and McDonald’s restaurant are located at Polegate Roundabout.

12.5.35 In Lewes, the proportion of individuals aged 16-64 who are estimated to be economically active (October 2017- September 2018) was 79% (49,500), which is comparable to the average of 80.9% in south east England and 78.5% in Great Britain. In Wealden, the proportion of individuals aged 16-64 who are estimated to be economically active (October 2017- September 2018) was 83.3% (75,700), which is higher than the average of 80.9% in south east England and 78.5% in Great Britain.

12.5.36 In 2017, the job density levels (the ratio of total jobs to the population aged 16-64) was 0.74 in Wealden and 0.70 in Lewes. This is lower than the averages across south east England (0.87) and Great Britain (0.86) in 2017, which indicates less availability of employment opportunities within both Lewes and Wealden.

283 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.5.37 Table 12.1 in Appendix 12.3 detail the estimated employee jobs by industry sector in 2017. In Wealden there are a total of 48,000 jobs (both full time and part time). In Lewes, there are a total of 34,000 jobs (both full time and part time). In Lewes, the highest proportion of employee jobs are in the Human Health and Social Work (Sector Q) at 14.7% and Wholesale Trade and Retail Trade; Repair of Motor Vehicles and Motorcycles (Sector G) at 14.7%. In Wealden, the highest proportion of employee jobs are in the Wholesale and Retail Trade; Repair of Motor Vehicles and Motorcycles (Sector G) at 16.7%. This is a greater proportion than the average across south east England (16.3%) and Great Britain (15.2%). There is a higher proportion of people in Wealden who work in the Construction Sector (9.4%) compared to Lewes (5.9%). However, there are a higher proportion of people employed in the Public Administration and Defence; Compulsory Social Security Sector in Lewes (8.8%) compared to Wealden (1.7%).

12.5.39 There are numerous tourist and recreational facilities located between Lewes and Polegate that are accessed either directly from the A27 or its feeder roads.

12.5.40 The SDNP landscape lies to the south of the scheme. With over 3,300km of PRoW, the SDNP offers a landscape for people to enjoy walking and cycling. The SDNP is the largest resource for recreation and tourism in the south east of England and therefore plays a substantial role in the local economy. The park has approximately 46 million visitor days per year, generating an income of £464 million and supporting around 11,700 jobs235. The visitor surveys suggest approximately 15% arrive by bus, rail or walking, across all visitor types, and they potentially use the A27229. Other attractions on the SDNP include: international horse trials, the Long Man of Wilmington, Litlingon White Horse, as well as the Firle Beacon. In addition to the routes within the SDNP, within the study area there are numerous PRoW utilised by the public on a day to day basis with recreational users walking, cycling or horse riding all year-round (Figure 12.1).

12.5.41 Drusillas Park, a small 10-acre zoo near Alfriston, is located directly adjacent to the scheme. The parks attracted 360,000 annuals visits, though this is strongly seasonal.

12.5.42 There are numerous B&B and hotel facilities. These include Cobwebs B&B, Dawes House B&B, Crossways Hotel in Wilmington, The Giants Rest, Barley Mow and The Rose Cottage Inn. Firle Campsite (located within SDNP) is also adjacent to the scheme. The NMU Context Report229 outlined that there are more than 80 rooms (or tents) worth of visitor accommodation in pubs, hotels, B&Bs and campsites along the A27 corridor, with nearly all advertised with good access to walking as a selling point.

12.5.43 Fly Sussex Paragliding centre near West Firle is the largest paragliding school in the UK. In addition, also located in West Firle is South Downs Hang Gliding. Both facilities provide recreational opportunities for a wide range of people. Within the vicinity of the scheme extent are Firle Place Riding School and Stables, Firle Cricket Club, Firle Place Estate, Tilton House Retreat, English Wine Centre, Charleston House Museum, and Folkington Manor, which all provide activities for tourists and the local population.

12.5.44 Local Economy has therefore been assessed as having a medium sensitivity value.

HUMAN HEALTH

12.5.45 The scheme is located within East Sussex Districts of Lewes and Wealden. The resident population in Lewes was estimated to be 102,300 (totalling 49,800 males and 52,500 females) in 2017, based on the Office for National Statistics (ONS) NOMIS report236. There was a lower proportion of individuals aged 16-64 in Lewes (57.7%) compared with the averages across the south-east England region (61.8%) and Great Britain (62.9%) in 2017.

12.5.46 The resident population for Wealden was estimated to be 158,900 (totalling 76,600 males and 82,400 females) in 2017 based on the Office for National Statistics (ONS) NOMIS report237. There was a lower proportion of individuals aged 16-64 in Wealden (57.1%) compared with the average across the south-east England region (61.8%) and Great Britain (62.9%) in 2017.

12.5.47 There was a lower proportion of individuals aged 16-64 in Wealden (57.1%) compared with Lewes (57.7%). Population data broken down by age group for each Ward covered by the scheme extent (as of 2015) is shown in Appendix 12.1.

12.5.48 According to the 2018 Public Health Profiles for the respective Districts, the health of people in both Lewes and Wealden is generally better than the England average238. Life expectancy at birth is 81.5 years for males and 85.3 years for females in Lewes, and 81.7 years for males and 84.7 years for females in Wealden. These are all substantially better than the England averages of 79.5 years for males and 83.1 years for females.

12.5.49 In Lewes the percentage of obese children (aged 10-11) is 12.6% and in Wealden 15.7%, both of which are notably better values than the England average of 20.0%239.

12.5.50 Health indicators at the Ward level (as of 2016) are shown in Appendix 12.1 compared against averages for England.

12.5.51 The English Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2015 are a collection of several separate indices measuring relative deprivation within all local authorities in England. Wealden District is ranked 275th out of 326 local authorities, and Lewes ranks 211th, where 1 is the most deprived and 326 is the least deprived. Indicators from the IMD at the Ward level are shown in Appendix 12.1, compared against the England averages. Both Wealden and Lewes have relatively low levels of deprivation.

12.5.52 Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs) are a geographical area used for reporting statistics for smaller areas. There are 32,844 LSOAs in England which are made up of a maximum population of 3,000 people, or 1,200 households240.

12.5.53 Lewes has no LSOAs among the most deprived 10% in the country. One LSOA in the District (Lewes 009B in Newhaven Valley) is in the most deprived 20% in England with a rank of 6,248 (where 1 is the most deprived, 32,844 is the least). Four LSOAs in Lewes are in the least deprived 10% in the country.

12.5.54 Wealden has no LSOAs among the most deprived 10% in the country. Two LSOAs fall into the most deprived 20% in England and both are in Hailsham. 14 LSOAs in Wealden are in the least deprived 10% in the country.

12.5.55 The existing A27 in Lewes and Wealden passes through eight LSOAs which are shown below in Table 12.10.

12.5.56 Economic activity can have a direct effect on health, and several historical studies provided strong evidence linking unemployment and increased mortality, linking unemployment with a number of different diseases241.

12.5.57 Links between unemployment with poor health outcomes have mainly been focussed on health effects of becoming unemployed, with those that become unemployed or enter less secure employment having worse health than those that remain in secure employment. Unemployment levels are outlines in Table 12.8.

12.5.58 The type of employment that a person enters will also have an effect on health. Research suggests that jobs with low personal control, or low income, are associated with poorer health status compared with high control/high income jobs242. A breakdown of jobs the populations in Wealden and Lewes hold are outlined in Appendix 12.3.

12.5.59 Economic data for the Wards included in the health study area are shown in Table 12.8.

12.5.60 Communities with pre-existing health issues may be more vulnerable to changes that impact human health. The following tables (Table 12.11 and Table 12.12) provide data on the number of hospitable admissions for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and childhood asthma in the clinical commissioning group (CCG) in which the scheme is located. Both of these indicators show the local CCG, High Weald Lewes Havens, performing better when compared to the NHS sub-region and England averages.

12.5.61 The scheme is located in an area which doesn’t experience large inequalities in health, has low levels of deprivation and the population’s health is better than the national average. As a result of this, health receptors are assessed as having a low sensitivity to the scheme.

FUTURE BASELINE

12.5.62 According to the Office of National Statistics (ONS) National Population Projections: 2016 based statistical bulletin245, the UK population is predicted to grow to 69.2 million by mid-2026, with England growing more quickly than other UK nations. The projected population change for the South East of England (mid-2016 to mid-2026) is 6.4%, which compares to the projected change for England of 5.9%. Population projections for East Sussex County show an expected increase of 5.4% from 2016 to 2026, with Lewes District seeing a predicted growth of 7.4% and Wealden District an increase of 8.4% over the same period246.

12.5.63 The future population will be comprised of a growing proportion of older people, with the number of people aged 65 and over in England projected to grow by 19.4% between mid-2016 and mid- 2026. In the South East, the proportion of people aged 65 and over is expected to grow by 20.7%247.

12.5.64 The population projection for East Sussex County show an expected increase of 20.3% in the population aged 65 and older (from 2016 to 2026), with Lewes District seeing a predicted increase of 20.7%, and Wealden District a predicted increase of 24.9% in the same period248.

12.5.65 An increase in population size will lead to increased demand for community facilities, particularly those associated with an older population, such as medical facilities (GP surgeries for example) and care homes. It could also lead to an increase in vehicles on the road network, leading to higher levels of congestion resulting in longer journey times and increased driver stress.

12.5.66 The East Sussex Active Access for Growth Programme seeks to encourage residents in growth areas, including Eastbourne & South Wealden, to use more active modes as a means to travel. Work will be focussed on those that are currently inactive or struggling to access employment opportunities. This programme runs from 2017 to 2020 and could see an increase in walking and cycling, as well as the use of public transport in the region, leading to a potential improvement in the health of residents of these areas249.

289 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.6 POTENTIAL IMPACTS CONSTRUCTION PHASE

12.6.1 The scoping report identified the following potential construction impacts:

12.6.2 Motorised Travellers - potential temporary disruption to MTs on the A27 and the surrounding local road network, including road blockages and diversions with a resultant temporary increase in driver frustration and stress (adverse impact). Temporary movement or activity of construction machinery, usually with flashing lights can also increase stress. Visual amenity can be adversely affected by the presence of storage compounds, construction materials and spoil heaps. The loss of trees, hedgerows and existing field boundaries can affect the local landscape and open up views. Views from the road can also be altered due to artificial lighting.

12.6.3 Walking, Cycling and Horse-riding - potential temporary adverse impacts on WCHs using PRoW, nationally designated routes, and other public routes within the study area, through possible closures or diversions, and altering the length and amenity value of routes, and views from those routes. The works and activities associated with the scheme (including the use of plant on-site) could adversely impact the amenity value of PRoW to WCHs within the study area. Users of National Cycle Route 90 and National Cycle Route 2 to the A27, may experience adverse impacts in terms of journey delay and a reduction in amenity value. Loss of amenity can also be a result of reduced air quality and increased noise due to the construction works.

12.6.4 Community Severance – There may be some temporary disruption to local MT and WCH’s accessing local community facilities during construction as traffic management measures are implemented. There may also be adverse impacts due to PRoW diversions, and access issues to agricultural fields.

12.6.5 Private and Community Land Take – potential adverse impacts due to land-take from private properties at Selmeston, Drusilla’s roundabout, Wilmington junction, Polegate and residents along the Village and Alfriston Road, although no demolition is required. Potential adverse impacts due to land-take from Common Land and community land. Users of public open spaces along the scheme route may experience adverse impacts due to changes in ease of access.

Local Economy - direct spend is likely to generate direct employment opportunities for individuals within Lewes and Wealden, increase training opportunities, increased local spend and indirect and induced employment opportunities within the local economy (beneficial). Traffic management measures during construction works could cause disruption to commuters and business travel on the local road network (adverse impact). Tourism facilities (such as Firle Campsite, Drusillas Park, Crossways B&B) as well as the SDNP may experience adverse impacts in terms of a reduction in amenity value during works. Potential increases in noise levels can decrease amenity value for users of SDNP, and construction measures and potential road diversions may result in changes in accessibility. Road diversions can adversely impact journey times to tourism and recreation facilities, such as Drusillas Park.

Human Health - local residents may experience adverse impacts resulting from an increase in noise from construction and associated traffic, as well as an increase in dust from construction activities. Potential road diversions or route disruption may lead to increased travel time and reduced accessibility to local facilities.

290 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

OPERATIONAL PHASE

12.6.6 The scoping report identified the following potential operational impacts:

12.6.7 Motorised Travellers - The scheme aims to have a beneficial impact on the experience of MT during times of heavy traffic by improving traffic flow and reducing driver stress caused by frustration, fear of accidents and route uncertainty. The scheme is likely to change the current view from the road. The removal of vegetation within the current A27 extent to enable the works is likely to increase the inter-visibility between settlements and outlying visual receptors until the replacement planting is established. There will be an increased visual presence of road junctions and hard standing areas, although views from the road are anticipated to be unchanged in the long term. Visual impacts may also arise as a result of new associated barriers and signs.

12.6.8 Walking, Cycling and Horse-riding – the scheme aims to positively enhance the access to existing WCH routes. There may be temporary adverse impacts on WCH’s during the operation due to loss of amenity, prior to landscaping being established. There is the potential for temporary conflicts between users of the Shared Use Paths, immediately upon opening them, as users familiarise themselves with the new route (adverse impact), but it can be mitigated by appropriate signage wayfinding and at points.

12.6.9 Community Severance – the scheme design aims to reduce community severance during operation, having a beneficial impact through the introduction of improved crossing points.

12.6.10 Private and Community Land Take – there may be some adverse impacts on nearby properties, due to reduced access, loss of privacy and permanent land take, although no demolition is required. The scheme, however, has the potential to have beneficial impacts on access to recreational facilities. The Shared Use Path will create a new safe route for cyclists and pedestrians. The increased connectivity between recreational PRoW has the potential to provide beneficial impacts for local users. The numerous tourism and recreational facilities within immediate vicinity of the scheme (such as Drusillas Park and the SDNP) may benefit as a result of the Shared Use Path.

12.6.11 Local Economy – reduced delays on the road network have the potential to provide beneficial impacts on the local economy with improved commuter and delivery journey times. This has the potential to be beneficial to agricultural businesses surrounding the A27.

12.6.12 Human Health - local residents and visitors will potentially experiencing beneficial impacts, particular through the use of the Shared Use Path. This route will provide a safe, off-line route for pedestrians and cyclists to travel locally as well as further explore the wider SDNP.

12.7 DESIGN, MITIGATION AND ENHANCEMENT MEASURES

ALL TRAVELLERS

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS

12.7.1 The scheme aims to improve the experience of MTs using the A27 and connecting roads. The following mitigation and enhancement measures would contribute to an overall improved experience for MTs:

 During the construction phase, traffic is anticipated to be managed using speed restrictions and overnight working.

 Where overriding landscape or design constraints do not restrict this, the view from the road for MTs should not be further obstructed by new structure(s) (for example roadside screening).

291 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

 Signage and layout would be clear to understand and avoid creating route uncertainty. Any diversions or closures undertaken during construction would be clearly advertised, and any diversionary routes would be clearly signposted and not lead to uncertainty. Details of any traffic management measures would be listed within a Traffic Management Plan (TMP).

 The design will include measures to reduce fear of accidents.

WALKING, CYCLISTS AND HORSE-RIDERS

12.7.2 The scheme aims to accommodate walkers and cyclists, and either retain or improve the existing access arrangements. Any temporary diversion works of PRoWs would be undertaken following consultation with affected groups or individuals, and the required consents obtained.

12.7.3 Use of best practice design with regards to the safety of WCHs, will improve the amenity of users of the footpath and surrounding areas. Additionally, landscaping that can provide screening of the road where possible and reduce noise levels on the wider network of PRoW will also improve amenity for users.

12.7.4 Existing types of access to current PRoW will be retained and where possible improved. For example; new barriers such as stiles will be avoided as they may restrict some users. The access points to PRoW will be designed at the detailed design stage through consultation with user groups and local stakeholders. The detailed design stage will consider areas where the Shared Use Path can interface with the existing PRoW network and how existing access can be improved.

COMMUNITIES

COMMUNITY SEVERANCE

12.7.5 Existing PRoWs and footpaths will be retained and diversions kept to a minimum during construction.

12.7.6 Residents of local communities will be consulted ahead of works to notify them of construction activities and potential impacts associated with the works, including the timing of key events (such as temporary closures of crossings or pavements). Agricultural field access will be maintained and agreed with land owners. Farmers will be informed of works adjacent to field access points.

12.7.7 Following completion of the construction works; a media campaign to promote the scheme will be undertaken to promote local interest in the new facilities and route opportunities.

PRIVATE AND COMMUNITY LAND TAKE

12.7.8 To minimise the impact on community land at Wilmington, screening will be used to reduce the loss of amenity impact during construction.

12.7.9 Where diversion routes are in place, ensure effective signage. The use of best practice construction methods will reduce disruption to users, especially tourists who are not familiar with the area.

PEOPLE

LOCAL ECONOMY

12.7.10 Measures will be in place, where possible, to maximise the potential for the workforce and project supply chain to be locally sourced.

292 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.7.11 Effective traffic management will be put in place through a Traffic Management Plan during construction works to minimise disruption to road network users. Access to local businesses, including agricultural land, will be maintained during both the construction phase and operational phase to ensure all businesses can operate as normal.

HUMAN HEALTH

12.7.12 The use of best practice methods for construction will be used to minimise the impacts of noise and air quality (specifically dust) on local residents during the construction phase.

12.7.13 Appropriate signage will be put in place to avoid creating route uncertainty and access to local community facilities maintained.

12.8 ASSESSMENT OF LIKELY SIGNIFICANT EFFECTS

12.8.1 The potential impacts detailed in Section 12.5 and Section 12.6 have been reviewed based on the implementation of the mitigation measures to provide an assessment of the scheme on Population and Health receptors, which are set out below.

ALL TRAVELLERS

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS: DRIVER STRESS

12.8.2 The road currently experiences substantial congestion throughout various periods of the day. Existing motorised travellers using the A27 are anticipated to already subject to high levels of frustration and fear of accidents, particularly at periods of peak demands. Driver stress is expected to be of high sensitivity.

12.8.3 Drivers stress for the sections of the A27 are shown below in Appendix 12.2 for the 2015 baseline, 2022 opening year and 2037 design year, respectively. These compare AM and PM flows for the A27 eastbound and A27 westbound.

12.8.4 The A27 is expected to remain open for the duration of the construction works. MT are expected to experience an increase in driver stress because of delays occurring due to speed restrictions from traffic management. This will be exacerbated by potential additional traffic associated with construction vehicles, and the slower journey times created by traffic management / controls; however, such effects will only be temporary.

12.8.5 Data suggests, that due to the increasing number of vehicles on the network and the usage of the road increases, there will be no change in driver stress as a result of the scheme. Therefore, the scheme has a Slight Adverse effect on driver stress during construction and a Neutral effect during the operation of the scheme.

MOTORISED TRAVELLERS: VIEWS FROM THE ROAD

12.8.6 The scheme is located within a scenic and rural landscape, comprising of downlands of the SDNP which provide a sense of openness throughout much of the surrounding area. The view from the A27 affords views towards the ridges of the South Downs interspersed with small hamlets and agricultural land which is comprised of arable and pastoral fields which are lined with mature hedgerows.

12.8.7 The existing junctions along the A27 are generally surrounded by vegetation consisting of grassland, scrub, hedgerows, trees and woodlands. Due to these characteristics, existing views from the road range from restricted through to open views, however at junctions, views are mainly restricted or intermittent. Motorised travellers are judged to be of high sensitivity.

294 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.8.8 The scheme is likely to result in changes to the views from the road from what is currently experienced, due to the required land take and loss of vegetation screening. It is expected the junction improvements will only have a limited impact in change of views and have the potential to result in more open views of the SDNP due to a loss of vegetation screening.

12.8.9 The Shared Use Path will contribute to the immediate highways infrastructure during both construction and operational phases. In particular, there will be new views of the WCH route during operation from existing highways, junctions and crossing points along the A27.

12.8.10 Overall, the views from the road for MT from the surrounding road network and junctions provide a varied experience, ranging from restricted to open views over the surrounding scenic landscape which is comprised of mixture of agriculture, residential and commercial properties, vegetation and trees.

12.8.11 Construction activities will be visible from the road which will include features of a major construction site and traffic management works. However, due to the scheme largely retaining its original visual appearance once operational, these effects are all considered to be temporary. Therefore, the scheme is expected to have a Slight to Moderate Adverse effect on views from the road during construction and a Slight Adverse effect during the operation of the scheme.

WALKING, CYCLING AND HORSE-RIDING

12.8.12 The A27 acts as a physical barrier to existing communities, though there are a number of pedestrian crossing points along this section of the A27. Temporary or permanent closures of non-designated public routes and PRoWs during construction and operation has the potential to sever communities from services and facilities. It is likely that there will be some community severance during construction, due to the disruption caused to WCH particularly affecting access to services and facilities in the surrounding villages and towns (due to additional road works restricting access to current crossing points, for example). It will also effect users who use these routes for leisure and recreation, and as access to the SDNP.

12.8.13 The construction works as part of the scheme and within the vicinity of existing PRoWs are anticipated to result in a temporary reduction of visual amenity and journey ambience. All routes are susceptible to visual intrusion of variable magnitude. Construction activities are also anticipated to have an impact on noise (see Chapter 11), dust and air quality (see Chapter 5).

12.8.14 All footpaths that lead to the southern side of the A27 (within the scheme) will be affected during construction and operation. During construction closures of footpaths and cycleways (including the National Cycle Network Route 2) will be avoided to ensure access is maintained. Only short- term temporary closures with diversions or additional crossing points will be put in place.

12.8.15 During construction, post mitigation, a moderate magnitude of change it is anticipated and WCHs will experience a Slight Adverse effect from the scheme. This effect will be temporary and will only take place where existing footpaths and cycle paths are upgraded.

12.8.16 During the operational phase, the provision of a continuous Shared Use Path alongside the A27, with an increased number of safe crossing points including new pelican, toucan and informal crossing islands which will have a Moderate Beneficial effect and reduce current severance issues along the A27. During operation, it is also anticipated that the users of the surrounding network of PRoW and non-designated public routes will experience a beneficial effect due to the improved connections provided by the new Shared Use Path and crossings.

295 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

COMMUNITIES

COMMUNITY SEVERANCE

12.8.17 Due to the number of residential settlements and local community facilities within the vicinity and either side of the A27, there will be a need for existing MT and WCH to access or cross the A27. The existing community links across the road are of medium sensitivity, based on data presented in the Non- Motorised User Report229 and knowledge of surrounding nationally designated footpaths. Any closures of PRoW or footpaths (if unavoidable) during construction is likely to have a temporary Slight Adverse effect due to increased journey times. All footpaths that come into contact with the southern side of the A27 (within the scheme) will be affected.

12.8.18 It is anticipated that there will not be any new severance during the operation of the scheme, with the proposed Shared Use Path providing greater connectivity between communities. The scheme will have a Slight Beneficial effect on reducing community severance during operation.

12.8.19 The majority of the works will be undertaken within the existing highways boundary, however, some of the works are anticipated to require additional land take. The Maximum Extent of the scheme is shown on Figure 2.2. Land take required for the scheme is outlined in Figure 2.5 and Table 12.14.

TABLE 12.14: LAND TAKE REQUIRED FOR THE SCHEME

Classification Land Take (Hectares, 2 decimal places)

Agricultural Land 23.36

Business (including overflow carpark and land) 0.50

Community Land (allotments) 0

Residential Property (and land) (all) 0.05

Non-agricultural land 0.14

Total 24.13

296 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

COMMUNITY LAND

12.8.20 The numerous sections of community land, particularly the Polegate Bypass Allotments, Selmeston War Memorial and Selmeston Village Hall and Playing Fields may be directly impacted during the construction phase in terms of loss in amenity value. They may be affected due to diversions in PRoW during construction, leading to reduced access. An area of Common Land at Wilmington will be directly affected by the scheme during construction in terms of loss of amenity value, land take and potentially reduced access due to its close proximity to the A27 corridor. . An area of Common Land located at the Green and Street, Wilmington is required permanently for the scheme, there will be 0.082 ha (827.28 m2) of land-take (Figure 2.5). The sensitivity of these receptors is medium. Post mitigation, during construction, the scheme will have a Slight to Moderate Adverse effect on Community Land due to land take and loss of amenity.

12.8.21 During operation, due to reduced community severance resulting in better access to Common Land at Wilmington, Polegate Bypass Allotments, Selmeston War Memorial and Selmeston Village Hall and Playing Fields. The scheme will result in a Moderate Beneficial effect on Community Land.

PRIVATE ASSETS

12.8.22 It is expected that the private and commercial property receptors amenity will be impacted by the scheme, during both construction and operation with land take required at some locations. Most of land required will be Agricultural Land (see Chapter 9 – Geology and Soils and Appendix 2.1). A number of businesses will also be affected by land take required for the scheme such as Drusillas Park Zoo (0.03ha; 330m2), The Wishing Well, Wilmington (0.026ha; 260m2), and the Barley Mow Inn Public House (0.021ha; 210m2). In addition, 0.082ha (827.28m2) is required of Common Land located at the Green and Street, Wilmington.

12.8.23 Properties requiring land take include Alciston Corner (0.33ha (333.19m2)) and properties at Fairview, The Street, Wilmington (0.018ha (180m2)). Further details of the land required are shown in Figure 2.5.

12.8.24 The sensitivity of private property receptors is considered to be low. Private properties located close to the junctions at Selmeston, Drusilla’s roundabout, Wilmington junction, Polegate will be subject to permanent land-take due to the scheme, although no demolition of property is expected. Figure 2.5 provides details of land take required for the scheme.

12.8.25 There will be four temporary construction compounds located along the A27, during the construction phase. One is located off Drusillas roundabout, whilst the other three are located along then A27 in Polegate (Figure 2.2). Currently, there are no visible structures where the temporary compounds are located. Therefore, it is assumed that no demolition will be required unless land use changes prior to construction.

12.8.26 Post mitigation, during construction, the scheme will have a Slight Adverse effect on Private Land due to land take and loss of amenity During operation the scheme will result in a Neutral to Slight Beneficial effect on private assets with better access to local businesses.

297 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

PEOPLE

LOCAL ECONOMY

12.8.27 Any economic and employment benefits within the wider area caused by disruption to road commuter times are likely to be minimal due to this regional scale. The construction phase will have a beneficial, though temporary, initial effect on the local economy through enhancing local labour and supporting local businesses through expenditure from direct spend on material for the scheme. There may also be benefits from any labour employed from outside the area who need to use local hotels and/or restaurants. The economy is assessed to be of medium sensitivity, with the scheme having a minor magnitude of impact. Therefore, the significance of the scheme during construction on the economy is Slight Beneficial.

12.8.28 The operational phase of the A27 improvements would require continuous monitoring and maintenance work would contribute to local employment opportunities. Although, increased employment is unlikely to be significant as the work would be improvements to an existing road and not a new substantial section of infrastructure. In addition, other benefits of the scheme include increased access to areas of employment. However, as the scheme is online and links already exist between potential employees and areas of employment, these effects would be minor.

12.8.29 The economy is assessed to be of medium sensitivity, with the scheme having a minor magnitude of impact. Therefore, the significance of the scheme during operation on the economy will be Neutral.

12.8.30 As previously highlighted the scheme lies on the boundary of the SDNP which attracts a high number of visitors year-round. Additionally, there are numerous tourist facilities and attractions along the A27 corridor including Drusilla’s Zoo and Crossways Hotel. Traffic delays during construction will impact some tourism facilities by increasing visitor journey length and potentially discouraging tourists from making the journey to visit. Disruption to PRoWs and national designated footpaths in the surrounding area during construction is likely to have a temporary adverse effect on some tourism and recreation. Overall, during the construction phase post mitigation, there is expected to be a Slight to Moderate Adverse effect on tourism and recreation due to the construction of scheme. This will be temporary in nature and will occur at the main junction elements of the scheme.

12.8.31 During the operation of the scheme, tourism and recreational facilities may see beneficial impacts due to the increase in road users and reduced congestion. There may also be an increase in visitor numbers to the existing facilities. Improved air quality and noise as a result of the scheme will also improve the amenity of tourism and recreation facilities in the area. The scheme will also improve accessibility to existing PRoW. Overall, it is expected that during operation, the scheme will have a Moderate Beneficial effect on tourism and recreation.

HUMAN HEALTH

12.8.32 The health of residents within the scheme is generally good and better than the national average.

12.8.33 Delays to road traffic, will impact on local resident’s accessibility to employment and other social infrastructure including healthcare facilities.

12.8.34 During construction, increases in driver stress, reduced accessibility, at deterioration in air quality and increases in noise, are expected to lead to a Neutral to Slight Adverse effect on human health.

298 A27 East of Lewes Improvements PCF Stage 3 – Environmental Assessment Report

12.8.35 During operation the Shared Use Path will provide both local residents and visitors greater access to the SDNP as well as opportunities to for walking and cycling on a safe, designated route.

12.8.36 During operation, the scheme will have a Slight Beneficial effect on human health.
