  • M5 Oldbury Viaduct Traffic Management Study Executive Summary
    M5 Oldbury Viaduct Traffic Management Study Executive Summary Oldbury and Park Street viaducts carry approximately 3km of the elevated sections of the M5 to the west of Birmingham between junctions 1 and 2. Constructed in 1970, it has deteriorated in recent years and has seen increased emergency interventions (55 in 2016). Therefore we need to repair and upgrade sections now in order to prevent bigger challenges and further disruption in the future. By maintaining this key corridor we’re delivering a huge investment that will support economic growth locally and in the wider West Midlands. Once complete, customers will benefit from a safer, more resilient route and enhanced driver experience. Other planned interventions on the strategic network in coming years include HS2, M6 J10 redesign, and on the local network, proposed Birchley island project and M5 junction 1 redesign. Therefore, we have a window of opportunitybetween April 2017 and autumn 2018 to complete this work at M5 Oldbury Viaduct. This section of the M5 motorway is particularly busy, carrying both local and strategic south-west and south-east to north-west traffic, with seasonal peaks. It is a commuter hub with traffic joining with the M6, other roads into and out of the Birmingham hub, and other cities in the region. Our engineers advised that in order to carry out the work safely, the carriageway would have to be treated in sections under traffic management. Four options were progressed to the modelling stage to understand impact and we chose the one that was safest, offered most value for money and most appropriate timeline.

This report records how the engagement with stakeholders was undertaken, and the responses received. Having captured their feedback, the report sets out some of the key issues identified by stakeholders, including challenges to be addressed, and opportunities to deliver improvements. It contains full reports of the stakeholder workshops and responses from the online surveys together with some additional individual submissions. This stakeholder engagement is part of a larger demonstration project commissioned by Highways England looking at two locations, to identify issues affecting bus and coach operation on the strategic road network to inform future investment. Methodology We contacted a wide range of local stakeholders in both case study areas and invited them to participate in a workshop held in January 2019 in the local area.

  • Post Opening Project Evaluation M1 J10-13 HSR & Junctions
    Post Opening Project Evaluation M1 J10-13 HSR & Junctions One Year After Study October 2016 Notice Although this report was commissioned by Highways England, the findings and recommendations are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the Highways England. While Highways England has made every effort to ensure the information in this document is accurate, Highways England does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of that information; and it cannot accept liability for any loss or damages of any kind resulting from reliance on the information or guidance this document contains. Post Opening Project Evaluation M1 J10-13 HSR and Junctions: One Year After Study Foreword Highways England’s motorways are some of the safest in the world. Our road network carries a third of road traffic and we have seen demand grow by a quarter since 2000 with continued growth forecast. One reason for the introduction is smart motorways is because there are more vehicles on the road. By making use of the full width of the road, smart motorways add that extra capacity to carry more vehicles and ease congestion. They have evolved from Controlled Motorways (with variable speed limits) to Dynamic Hard Shoulder Running (opening the hard shoulder as a running lane to traffic at busy periods) to All Lane Running (permanently removing the hard shoulder and converting it into a running lane). Compared to a traditional motorway widening they deliver: • Increased capacity at significantly less cost than traditional motorway widening. • New technology and variable speed limits to improve traffic flow.

  • A21 Briefing from Highways England July 2019
    A21 SEVENOAKS TO HASTINGS ALL PURPOSE TRUNK ROAD Overview The A21 travels north south through Kent (M25 Chipstead) to East Sussex (Hastings). The route has gradually been upgraded predominantly from the M25 southwards - the last major project being the Tonbridge to Pembury dualling scheme completed in 2018. The route features strongly in the Highways England, South Coast Central, Route Strategy in terms of safety and congestion. As a result, a preliminary study was carried out which considered the opportunities for safety improvements and any further capacity improvements. The route strategy will support possible options for further safety and capacity improvement needs. Details of the next RIS will be announced by Government later this year and will be prioritised on the basis of strategic need, deliverability, buildability and value for money. Works undertaken on the route (last 5 years) These are works that we have carried out on the network, as well as some additional investigative activities. 1. Tonbridge to Pembury A21 dualling scheme completed 2018. 2. Kent cycle scheme funded in conjunction with Tonbridge to Pembury major project. 3. Double white lining south of Whatlington at Stream Lane and Ricards Lane junction to reduce collisions resulting from overtaking manoeuvres. 4. Resurfacing at A21 Kiln Down and Hurst Green Village including new markings and strengthened verges. 5. Review of Hurst Green pedestrian crossing, adjustment of sensors in response to complaints. 6. New signal heads at Hurst Green School – replacement of failed existing signs. 7. Comprehensive assessment for the installation of average speed cameras – unfortunately the scheme did not meet DfT and police enforcement criteria.
