M4 CORRIDOR AROUND NEWPORT Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives Report March 2017 OBJECTORS’ SUGGESTED ALTERNATIVES M4 CORRIDOR AROUND NEWPORT Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives Report March 2017 OBJECTORS’ SUGGESTED ALTERNATIVES The Welsh Government published draft Orders for the M4 Corridor around Newport (the Scheme) in March 2016. Objections have been received and will be heard at the Public Local Inquiry which commenced on 28 February 2017 at Newport Lysaght Institute. Suggested alternatives to the Scheme have been received by the Welsh Government. While the Welsh Government is not promoting or supporting these suggested alternatives, it is obliged to consider them so that the Inspectors conducting the Public Local Inquiry can report on their relative merits in their report to the Welsh Ministers. The Inspectors cannot recommend that a suggested alternative be adopted, but they could advise the Welsh Ministers that one or more of them warrant further investigation. In such an event, and if such investigations were undertaken that conclude an alternative should be adopted, it would then need to be the subject of new statutory draft Orders which themselves would be open to formal objection. One or more of the suggested alternatives might, if adopted, affect your property and/or interest. This Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives Report shows details of the suggested alternatives. Anyone wishing to object to or support any of the Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives should do so by 10 May 2017 by writing to Orders Branch at the address below, or by email [email protected]. Orders Branch Department for Economy and Infrastructure Welsh Government Offices Cathays Park Cardiff CF10 3NQ All comments received will be passed to the Inspectors for consideration. The Inspectors may be required to disclose the comments and the identity of the authors at the Inquiry, unless there are special reasons to the contrary. A copy of all correspondence is normally kept in the Public Local Inquiry library and is open to public inspection. Copies of this report can be obtained from the locations listed below, by contacting Orders Branch at the address given, by telephone 0845 600 2664, or by email [email protected].

They are included within this report to allow presentation and appraisal of all suggested alternatives within one accessible document: Objectors’ Suggested Alternative 18 Free-flow J23 and Connection at J23A (2006 TR111 Route) Objectors’ Suggested Alternative 19 Online Widening of Existing M4 including Brynglas Tunnels Objectors’ Suggested Alternative 20 Tunnel from Magor to Castleton Objectors’ Suggested Alternative 21 South of Magor Route Objectors’ Suggested Alternative 22 Closure of Existing M4 Junctions Please note that The Welsh Government is not promoting the Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives The Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives have been appraised against the Welsh Government’s criteria as set out in WelTAG (Welsh Transport Appraisal Guidance). This objective led approach considers the ability of each suggested alternative to meet the Scheme Specific Objectives, and appraises it against the Welsh Government’s three impact areas (Economy, Environment and Social), public and stakeholder acceptability, technical and operational feasibility, financial affordability and deliverability, and risks. The implementation of any suggested alternative may require new statutory processes and new environmental, ecological and engineering surveys to be undertaken, introducing delay and additional costs and potential funding implications. The Welsh Government is not promoting the Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives 3 APPRAISAL SUMMARY TABLE Appraisal summary tables and key points are enclosed for each of the Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives. The Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives included within this report are for amendments and additions at individual locations along the Published Scheme. The appraisals undertaken consider their impacts both local to where they are proposed and in the context of the whole scheme. The Scheme Specific Objectives are: Objective 1. Safer, easier and more reliable travel east-west in South Wales. Objective 2. Improved transport connections within Wales and to England, the Republic of Ireland and the rest of Europe on all modes on the international transport network. Objective 3. More effective and integrated use of alternatives to the M4, including other parts of the transport network and other modes of transport for local and strategic journeys around Newport. Best possible use of the existing M4, local road network and other transport Objective 4. networks. Objective 5. More reliable journey times along the M4 Corridor. Increased level of choice for all people making journeys within the transport Objective 6. Corridor by all modes between Magor and Castleton, commensurate with demand for alternatives. Objective 7. Improved safety on the M4 Corridor between Magor and Castleton. Objective 8. Improved air quality in areas next to the M4 around Newport. Objective 9. Reduced disturbance to people from high noise levels, from all transport modes and traffic within the M4 Corridor. Objective 10. Reduced greenhouse gas emissions per vehicle and/or person kilometre (km). Objective 11. Improved travel experience into South Wales along the M4 Corridor. Objective 12. An M4 attractive for strategic journeys that discourages local traffic use. Objective 13. Improved traffic management in and around Newport on the M4 Corridor. Objective 14. Easier access to local key services and residential and commercial centres. Objective 15. A cultural shift in travel behaviour towards more sustainable choices. The Welsh Government’s impact areas for WelTAG appraisal are Economy, Environment and Social. Economy: The economic appraisal considers: Project Cost Estimate The cost estimate for the project is based upon Quarter 4 2015 prices and excludes VAT and inflation. Benefit to Cost Ratio The economic performance is assessed by comparing the costs with the (BCR) benefits that would be achieved. The costs include construction, future maintenance and a cost estimate of the statutory procedures, including Public Local Inquiry. 4 The Welsh Government is not promoting the Objectors’ Suggested Alternatives Transport Economic Appraisal of the effects ordinarily captured by standard cost-benefit Efficiency (TEE) analysis – the effects within the transport sector. Economic Activity & Appraisal of the effects on the local, regional and Welsh economy – the Location Impacts (EALIs) effects beyond the transport sector. Environment: The environmental appraisal considers: Noise Appraisal of the effect on noise. Local air quality Appraisal of the effect on local air quality. Greenhouse gas Appraisal of the effect on greenhouse gas emissions. emissions Landscape & townscape The number of properties experiencing an improvement, deterioration or neutral effect to views, and an impact appraisal of the changes to the landscape, as a result of the proposal. Biodiversity The creation, enhancement, loss, damage or disturbance of fauna and flora species, ecosystems and habitats. Heritage Appraisal of the effects on cultural heritage sites. Water environment The effect on water quality including changes likely to occur to watercourses. Soils The effect on soils, vegetation, general habitats, agriculture and horticultural practices. Social: The social appraisal considers: Transport safety The change in personal injury accidents. Personal security The risk to and fear for personal safety. Permeability The ease of travel by non-motorised modes. Physical fitness The health benefits associated with active travel. Social inclusion The relative ease with which people can get

The need for a new motorway around Newport is overwhelming with the congestion around the Brynglas Tunnels negatively impacting on businesses and people from across South Wales. The first proposal for a relief road was published in 1991, almost 30 years ago. Although the failure to take action over three decades isn’t solely to blame, we believe it hasn’t helped the economic well-being of the current generation and has contributed towards: . The employment rate in Wales being an average of over 3% lower than the UK employment rate since the mid-1990s. The Welsh GVA per head being consistently lower than 75% of the UK average since the late-1990s with most recent figures showing that Cardiff’s GVA per head is the lowest 1 of the four UK capital cities. The Welsh Government’s analysis from March 2016 finds that a new M4 around Newport will improve connectivity within South Wales and with the rest of the UK which will: .

  • 2013-10-18 Sewta Reposnse to Nafw
    NAfW Environment and Sustainability Committee Review of M4 Proposals 1. Thank you for the opportunity to respond to the National Assembly for Wales Environment and Sustainability Committee review of the M4 Corridor Enhancement Measures. We are pleased to provide our views on the process and proposals to date. 2. Sewta is the alliance of local authorities charged with developing transport policy and delivering transport projects on behalf of the 10 local authorities in South East Wales and their partners, both in the transport industry and in organisations representing users’ interests. 3. Sewta’s membership includes the local authorities of Blaenau Gwent, Bridgend, Caerphilly, Cardiff, Merthyr Tydfil, Monmouthshire, Newport, Rhondda Cynon Taff, Torfaen and the Vale of Glamorgan. Partners are the Confederation of Passenger Transport, Arriva Trains Wales, Network Rail, Bus Users UK, Passenger Focus and Sustrans. Sewta works closely with the Welsh Government. 4. The M4 Motorway is a key element of the national and regional transport network, with a significant influence on travel patterns and economic performance. Accordingly, Sewta places great importance on engagement in the process to review existing provision and address known issues. 5. For the purposes of our response we have identified two distinct elements in the M4 proposals consultation and engagement processes: A. Original schemes consultation June and July 2012 (four highway options comprising, widening existing M4, two options to revise the Southern Distributor Road, and a new dual carriage way to the south of Newport, with common public transport elements); and B. Revised Scheme published 23 rd September 2013 (3 highway options to the south of Newport) 6.

  • Submission to the Public Local Inquiry M4 Corridor Around Newport
    September 2016 Submission to the Public Local Inquiry into the M4 corridor around Newport Summary We contest the proposed development for the following principal reasons: . The ‘need’ argument is based on flawed Transport Planning Objectives dating from 2007 which have been substantially unrevised since that date. The ‘need’ argument is unproven. Outside two hours a day for around 150 days per year, the current motorway copes well with existing traffic flows. Adding reasonable alternatives would suffice until at least 2037. The approach of the Welsh Government – ‘predict and provide’ – has long been discredited as a valid means of transport planning. The Welsh Government approach has failed to consider reasonable alternatives (including the ‘Blue Route’ via the Llanwern steelworks road, and alternatives relating to ‘common/complementary measures’, ‘public transport measures’, ‘junction closures’, and these measures in combination). The transport forecast is fundamentally unrealistic and this finding undermines entirely the Welsh Government’s rationale for infrastructure development. The proposed benefit – a 4-9 minute saving for 6,000 vehicles per day, for 150 or so days per year – is not commensurate to any degree with either the proposed expenditure or the proposed environmental destruction. The proposed benefit accrues principally to wealthy white men and worsens outcomes for those living in poverty. The sustainable development report is not fit for purpose. To conclude that the proposed development is sustainable (principally on the basis of economic benefit) is contrary to the word and spirit of sustainability. The economic appraisal is not fit for purpose. The Welsh Government’s approach of allocating ‘medium’ noise sensitivity to residential receptors is unique and unwarranted: the Planning Inspectorate, Highways Agency and Transport Scotland routinely classify residential receptors as being of ‘high’ sensitivity to noise.

Air quality in Newport has shown little sign of improvement compared to the previous (2015) round of monitoring. Twenty five new diffusion tube locations have been added during 2016. Twelve of the existing fifty five tubes have been relocated making a total of eighty monitoring locations, and two automatic stations. Of these new locations several new exceedances have been encountered which include: Caerphilly Road, Cefn Road and George Street for which new AQMAs should be considered. Monitoring sites along the M4 corridor appear to have been impacted by the Brynglas Tunnel works. A marked improvement in air quality along some sections of the M4 may be attributed to the night closures, reducing the overall volume of road traffic emissions. During 2016 work has continued on drafting a revised air quality action plan which will be ready for public consultation in due course. The results of this report recommend the following actions: 1. Declare New AQMAs for: a. Cefn Road b. Caerphilly Road c. George Street Revise AQMA boundaries for: d.
