This Residential Travel Plan has been produced following discussions with the local transport authority, Wiltshire Council, and accords with guidance provided in relevant national and local policy documents. It sets out the site strategies and measures that will be introduced to influence modal choice with a view to reducing dependency upon the private car. An audit of the existing pedestrian, cycling and public transport facilities in the area has been carried out which indicates that sustainable travel opportunities for residents and visitors to the proposed development are reasonable. Local amenities and facilities in Larkhill are within a reasonable walk/cycle distance of the proposed development and regular bus services to Salisbury and local settlements are also within a reasonable walking distance of the site. A number of specific measures have been put forward to reduce the need to travel, to encourage residents and visitors to use sustainable modes and to ensure that they have sufficient information to make informed choices on their modes of travel. It is proposed that an initial target of a car driver mode share of 39% within 3 years of the first occupation is adopted for the proposed development and a monitoring strategy has been suggested. The initial target is based on 2011 Census travel to work data for the local area and will need to be reviewed and agreed with Wiltshire Council once site-specific travel survey data is available. Similarly the proposed measures may need to be further developed following occupation of the proposed SFA development and once travel patterns have been established. The package of measures outlined in this report is considered to be robust and appropriate to the development proposals and the site location. This RTP is therefore considered suitable for future development of the site. Army Basing Programme: Infrastructure Delivery Larkhill SFA Residential Travel Plan 1 Introduction 1.1 PREAMBLE 1.1.1 This Residential Travel Plan (RTP) has been prepared in support of a planning application for the erection of 444 no. dwellings to provide Service Family Accommodation (SFA), land for a new primary school and community facilities, public open space, play areas, landscaping, internal roads and all associated infrastructure works on land situated to the north of The Packway and to the west of Larkhill, Wiltshire. The application site is shown edged red in Figure 1 . 1.1.2 SFA is MOD owned residential housing and the proposed SFA development at Larkhill forms part of the regular Army’s rebasing proposals for Salisbury Plain. This RTP should be read in conjunction with the Overarching Travel Plan (OTP) prepared in support of the rebasing proposals. The OTP presents the Army’s area wide strategy to influence modal choice with a view to reducing dependency upon the private car. 1.1.3 The proposed SFA development site is located immediately to east of Larkhill Camp, west of the village of Durrington. To the north the site is bounded by open grassland and arable fields, Stonehenge Golf Centre and arable fields to the east, The Packway to the south and by Larkhill Camp and existing SFA to the west. 1.1.4 Wiltshire Council (WC) is the local highway and planning authority for the area. 1.2 ARMY BASING PROPOSALS 1.2.1 In total around 4,000 extra personnel and their dependents will be rebased to Salisbury Plain. A large proportion of the total number will be junior ranks living and working on Camp. Personnel with families will be accommodated in SFA proposed in the local area. The new SFA proposed at Larkhill is one of three such developments with others proposed at Bulford and Ludgershall. Each will be subject to separate planning applications. 1.2.2 Soldiers living in SFA are typically 25 to 55 year old, married soldiers with families. Their travel patterns follow a typical daily commute, with the military member(s) of the household travelling to/from Camp during the AM/PM highway peak periods Monday to Friday. Spouses may also travel to work, as well as the usual ‘school run’, retail and leisure travel activities typical of any household. 1.3 PURPOSE 1.3.1 The aim of a Travel Plan is to minimise the impacts of travel, help to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, improve local air quality, minimise health risks and reduce traffic congestion. 1 Army Basing Programme: Infrastructure Delivery Larkhill SFA Residential Travel Plan Encouraging residents to carry out their everyday activities in a more sustainable manner can also contribute to improvements in the local environment. 1.3.2 Specifically, a RTP is a package of measures designed to reduce the number and length of car trips generated by a residential development, whilst also supporting more sustainable modes of travel and reducing the overall need to travel. The difference between a residential Travel Plan and workplace Travel Plan is that the residential plan is concerned with journeys made from a single origin (home) to multiple and changing destinations. The pattern of journeys originating at home is more varied, with residents having multiple destinations and different needs and travel choices over time. 1.3.3 The key principles of RTPs are as follows: • Site specific and are determined by opportunities and constraints e.g. public transport routes, health facilities and workplaces in the immediate area; • Combine ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ measures; • Provide a holistic package in which individual measures are integrated into design, marketing and occupation of the site (rather than “retrofitted” once the site is established). They can provide a key mechanism for ensuring that sustainable access is in place from the earliest stages

    Stonehenge A303 improvement: outline assessment of the impacts on the Outstanding Universal Value of the World Heritage property of potential route options presented by Highways England for January 2017 Nicola Snashall BA MA PhD MCIfA National Trust Christopher Young BA MA DPhil FSA Christopher Young Heritage Consultancy January 2017 ©Historic England and the National Trust Stonehenge A303 improvements: outline assessment of the impacts on the Outstanding Universal Value of the World Heritage property of potential route options presented by Highways England for January 2017 Executive Summary Introduction In 2014, English Heritage (now Historic England) and the National Trust commissioned an assessment (Snashall, Young 2014) on the potential impact of new road options, including a tunnel, for the A303 within the Stonehenge component of the Stonehenge, Avebury and Associated Sites World Heritage property. Since at that time, there were no detailed proposals, that report considered four possible alternatives and concluded that, of these, an off-line route with a tunnel of 2.9kms length would be the most deliverable solution. The government remains committed to improving the A303 and to funding sufficient for a tunnel of at least 2.9kms length within the World Heritage property. Highways England are consulting in early 2017 on route options developed since 2014 for this road scheme through the World Heritage property and bypassing Winterbourne Stoke village to the west. This report is an outline assessment of these initial options on the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) of the World Heritage property. It has been commissioned to assess the impact of the latest road options in the light of updated archaeological information.

  • Wiltshire County Council Agenda Item No. 14 Cabinet
    WILTSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 14 CABINET 24 th JUNE 2005 PROPOSED STONEHENGE VISITOR CENTRE Purpose of Report 1. To inform the Cabinet of the planning application submitted to Salisbury District Council by English Heritage for a new Stonehenge Visitor Centre at Countess East, Amesbury and to agree the County Council’s response. Background 2. The County Council’s Performance and Improvement Plan includes as one of its priority goals “to support improvements to the Stonehenge World Heritage Site”. The improvements planned are the Highways Agency’s A303 Stonehenge Improvement, English Heritage’s New Visitor Centre and The National Trust’s Land Use Changes, known collectively as The Stonehenge Project. 3. The County Council also supports the aims of the Stonehenge World Heritage Site (WHS) Management Plan which includes as one of its objectives:- “A new world class visitor centre should be secured to act as a gateway to Stonehenge, to improve the visitor experience and to encourage the dispersal of visitors around the whole WHS”. 4. The Public Inquiry into the A303 Stonehenge Improvement was held in the early part of 2004 and the Inspector’s report was submitted to the Secretary of State at the end of January 2005. A decision on the proposals is not expected until the Autumn. In the meantime, the Department for Transport has designated the improvement a regional scheme and the mechanism for prioritising and allocating regional funds has still to be agreed. Consequently some doubt would still remain about the future programme for the scheme should the Secretary of State confirm the Orders in the Autumn.
