The rate of unemployment among the 50+ population is falling at a slower rate than the rate of unemployment for 18-24 year olds. Due to an aging population, there is more than likely going to be an increasing number of older people who find themselves without a job, and wanting one. For all age groups, the issue of hidden unemployment remains significant in the borough of Wokingham Borough. There are thought to be a considerable number of unemployed residents who for a number of reasons; distance from a jobcentre, relative wealth, ability to rely on family for financial support, do not claim or are not eligible for JSA and so go undetected in the figures. However these people may still be seeking employment.

  • Volume 7.0 M4 Junctions 3 to 12 Smart Motorway TR010019
    Safe roads, reliable journeys, informed travellers M4 junctions 3 to 12 smart motorway TR010019 7.1 Planning statement 5(2) (q) Revision 0 March 2015 Planning Act 2008 Infrastructure Planning (Applications: Prescribed Forms and Procedure) Regulations 2009 Volume 7.0 Volume An executive agency of the Department for Transport HIGHWAYS AGENCY – M4 JUNCTIONS 3 TO 12 SMART MOTORWAY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Application This Planning Statement relates to an application (the "Application") made by the Highways Agency (the "Agency") to the Secretary of State for Transport (the "Secretary of State") pursuant to the Planning Act 2008 ("PA 2008"). The Application is for the M4 (Junctions 3 to 12) (Smart Motorway) Development Consent Order ("DCO") which would grant development consent, authorising the construction, operation and maintenance of a smart motorway between the M4 between junctions 3 to 12 (the "Scheme"), along with the compulsory acquisition of all land necessary to enable this. The Scheme The Scheme lies wholly within England and includes the alteration and improvement of a highway for which the Secretary of State is the highway authority. The area of development is greater than 15 hectares, and the improvement of the highway is considered to have the potential for a significant effect on the environment. Hence the Scheme is classified as a nationally significant infrastructure project ("NSIP"). The Scheme’s key objectives are to: a) reduce congestion, smooth the flow of traffic to improve journey times and make journeys more reliable; b) support and enhance the role of the M4 as a major national and inter-urban regional transport artery; c) support the economy and facilitate economic growth within the regions, by providing much needed capacity on the motorway; d) continue to deliver a high level of safety performance of the network using smart motorway techniques; and e) deliver environmental improvements and mitigation where appropriate and required.
