Appendix H. Road Drainage and the Water Environment

H.1 WFD Compliance Assessment Introduction Legislative background H.1.1 New activities and schemes that affect the water environment may adversely impact biological, hydromorphological, physico-chemical and/or chemical quality components, leading to a deterioration in the ecological status of a water body under the Water Framework Directive (WFD, Directive 2000/60/EC). The overall ecological status (or potential if heavily modified) of a water body is determined by the lowest scoring of these elements. H.1.2 New schemes may also render proposed mitigation measures ineffective, leading to the water body failing to meet its WFD objectives for Good Ecological Status (GES) / Good Ecological Potential (GEP). Similarly, new schemes may impact the quantitative or chemical status of the underlying groundwater body. Under the WFD, activities must not cause deterioration in overall water body status or prevent a surface water body from meeting GES / GEP and should where reasonably practical help towards meeting these objectives. Approach H.1.3 Atkins undertook a preliminary WFD compliance assessment as part of the PCF Stage 2 Environmental Scoping Report (ESR) (Atkins, March 2018) for the M621 Junction 1 to 7 project (the Project). This WFD compliance assessment has now been updated as part of the PCF Stage 3 Environmental Assessment Report (EAR) with the finalised proposed Scheme. Further details of the proposed Scheme can be found in Chapter 2 of this EAR. H.1.4 The EAR identifies four WFD surface water bodies which could be impacted by the proposed works: • Milshaw Beck from Source to Low/Wortley/ Becks. • Low/Wortley/Pudsey Beck. • Aire from Gill Beck (Baildon) to River Calder. • Batley Brook from Source to River Calder. H.1.5 Plus, one WFD groundwater body: Aire and Calder Carboniferous Limestone/Millstone Grit/Coal Measures. H.1.6 Two additional surface water WFD water bodies are present within the study area: and Liverpool Canal, summit to Leeds, adjacent to the Aire from Gill Beck (Baildon) to River Calder water body to the north of the M621; and, Oulton Beck from Source to to the south-east of the Junction 7 of the M621. However, neither of these are considered further within this assessment as they are not hydrologically connected to the proposed extent of works.

Revision C06 Page 304 of 386

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

H.1.7 This assessment sets out the WFD compliance assessment for both the surface water and groundwater WFD water bodies. This assessment has been based on General Arrangement drawings for the proposed Scheme, the proposed Scheme description and information from Transport Engineers; it follows Environment Agency (EA) draft WFD guidance and position paper (Environment Agency, 2016). Environmental objectives H.1.8 The following environmental objectives (based on EA guidance) were used to make recommendations on securing WFD compliance: • Prevent deterioration of the status of water bodies compared to the baseline status reported in the 2016 River Basin Management Plans; • Support the achievement of the environmental objectives in the 2016 plans; and where relevant, • Ensure a new activity or new physical modification does not jeopardise the future achievement of Good status for a water body. The proposed Scheme H.1.9 The proposed Scheme is along the length of the M621, between Junction 27 of the M62 in the west and Junction 43 of the M1 in the east. However, the focus of the works is between Junctions 1 and 4 of the M621. In brief, the proposed Scheme comprises: • Highways works: road widening and a free flow link at Junction 2, change to merge layout at Junction 3 and the conversion of the hard shoulder to a running lane westbound between Junctions 2a and 2. • A temporary construction compound near Junction 7 on the triangle of land between the M621/A62/Wakefield Road. • Technology works: Retention and addition of technology between Junctions 1 and 5 of the M621 to improve signage and traffic control. H.1.10 Further details on the proposed Scheme are provided in Chapter 2 of this EAR. WFD Summary H.1.11 The surface watercourses Milshaw Beck and Farnley Wood Beck/Dean Beck/Clark Spring are within the Milshaw Beck from Source to Low/Wortley/Pudsey Beck WFD water body. This WFD water body lies between Junction 27 of the M621 and just north of Junction 1 of the M621 and encompasses a small area near Junction 1 which would have technological works. Milshaw Beck and Farnley Wood Beck both are culverted under the M621 within this WFD water body. H.1.12 Wortley Beck is within the Low/Wortley/Pudsey Beck WFD water body. This WFD water body covers a small section of the study area around Junction 2. Wortley Beck flows within an open channel along the A6110 towards the M621, before turning northwards and flowing in a culverted channel towards the River Aire near Junction 1, where Milshaw Beck flows in. H.1.13 The River Aire and an unnamed watercourse are within the Aire from Gill Beck (Baildon) to River Calder WFD water body. This WFD water body extends from just east of Junction 2 to the M621/M1 junction. The River Aire flows almost parallel

Revision C06 Page 305 of 386

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

to the M621, but at a distance of between 0.6 and 1.6 km, in an open channel. The unnamed watercourse flows in an open channel near Junction 7 and is culverted under the M621. H.1.14 The Howley Beck is within the Batley Brook from Source to River Calder WFD water body. This WFD water body covers the M621/M62 junction. The Howley Beck flows in a south-easterly direction away from the junction in an open, tree- lined channel. H.1.15 The Aire and Calder Carboniferous Limestone/Millstone Grit/Coal Measures groundwater WFD water body covers the full extent of the study area (and a far wider area). H.1.16 Table H-1 and Table H-2 summarise the WFD status and associated element status for each surface water and groundwater water body in the study area. All four surface water bodies are classified as heavily modified (HMWB) meaning that they are substantially altered. They are all currently achieving Moderate potential overall, with their ecological status as Moderate and their Chemical status as Good. They are all failing to achieve Good potential due to point source sewage discharges and physical modifications from urbanisation. Low/Worley/Pudsey Beck water body is also failing due to barriers to ecological continuity. The groundwater body is currently achieving Poor status, with Quantitative status at Good and Chemical status at Poor. It is failing to reach Good status due to point source pollution from abandoned mines and suspect data.

The majority of the water bodies fall in the Aire Lower operational catchment, with Batley Beck falling with the Calder Lower operational catchment, all within the River Basin District. The Humber River Basin Management Plan (Humber RBMP, 2016) summarises the priority management issues for the Aire and Calder catchment as: • Mitigation of the effects of heavily modified water bodies • Point source pollution, primarily from water company assets • Diffuse pollution, both urban and rural

The proposed Scheme H.1.18 Further details on the proposed Scheme are outlined in Chapters 1 -3 of the EAR. A brief description of the proposed Scheme, in terms of both the highways works and technology works, are provided here. H.1.19 The highway works comprise: • Junction 2: Widening from two to three lanes to the north of the roundabout and widening from two to four lanes to the south. A free flow link would be provided between the M621 eastbound and A643 to the north of Junction 2. Additionally, widening of the Junction 2 westbound off-slip is proposed from two to three lanes, and widening of the Junction 2 westbound on-slip from one to two lanes, to accommodate for the forecast increase in traffic flows. • Junction 3: Westbound merge layout would be changed, to provide two lanes through the junction from the M621 westbound carriageway with an offside lane gain from the slip-road. The Junction 3 improvements would require the closure of the Junction 2a westbound diverge. • Between Junction 2a and 2: Conversion of the hard shoulder into a running lane westbound. • It has been confirmed that there will be no works (extensions, updates etc.) to any of the culverts within the proposed Scheme. • Currently detailed design for the drainage across the proposed Scheme has not been undertaken. High level design has been undertaken for Junction 2, with all drainage flowing into the sewer network and oversized pipes being used for attenuation of flows. H.1.20 The temporary construction compound would comprise offices, welfare facilities, parking, vehicle recovery, materials storage and plant storage on the triangle of land between the M621/A62/Wakefield Road. H.1.21 The technology works comprise: • Overhead lane signalling using Advanced Motorway Indicators (AMIs) is proposed between Junctions 3 and 2 westbound, three along an existing gantry and three on a new gantry. • Two pairs of existing Motorway Signal Mark 1 (MS1s), located in the central reservation, are proposed to be retained - one pair west of Junction 1 and one pair east of Junction 6. • Between Junctions 1 and 4, lane signalling and network information capability would be provided by the provision of Motorway Signal Mark 4 (MS4s), with 15 new MS4s in total. • Motorway Incident Detection and Automatic Signalling (MIDAS) radar units are proposed, with reference sites being positioned upstream of signals and then at nominal intervals of 300 m, where spacing between signals dictates their requirement. • Two existing cantilever verge-mounted Motorway Signal Mark 3 (MS3s) west of Junction 1 would be retained.

Revision C06 Page 308 of 386

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

• Post-mounted Entry Slip Signals (ESS) are proposed on some entry slip roads, located at the start of the SRN (motorway) boundary. Across the proposed Scheme 12 new ESS are proposed. • The NRTS ducted network infrastructure is proposed to be replaced and re- graded along an approximate 6.2 km length of the proposed Scheme. • Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) coverage is proposed to be enhanced, with the addition of cameras to provide full coverage of the operational lanes between Junctions 1 and 4. • Existing Emergency Roadside Telephones (ERTs) would be retained apart from the ERT at Junction 2a. Average speed cameras are proposed between Junctions 1 and 6. H.1.22 The proposed Scheme is unlikely to generate significant effects on local hydrology or flood risk as the proposed Scheme is predominantly an on-line improvement. The list below describes the potential impacts to the water environment based on the works described above: • Construction impacts: including risk of pollution from fuels, concrete and chemicals as well as from the disturbance of soil during earthworks • Pollution from road drainage: including collisions, road degradation, incomplete fuel combustion, fuel, and accidental spillage for example • Increased run-off: an increase in impermeable area would increase the run-off volume and rate of discharge from the road surface • Screening assessment H.1.23 Table H-3 screens the impact of the works from the proposed Scheme on Milshaw Beck from Source to Low/Wortley/Pudsey Beck, Low/Wortley/Pudsey Beck, Aire from Gill Beck (Baildon) to River Calder and Batley Beck surface water WFD water bodies. H.1.24 Each surface water body is assessed based upon the following potential impacts upon the water environment: • Project footprint: encroachment resulting in a physical modification of a watercourse, including realignment or crossing (including modifications to existing crossings, such as culverts or bridges); • Pollution from road drainage: including collisions, road degradation, incomplete fuel combustion, fuel, and accidental spillage for example; and • Increased runoff: an increase in impermeable area would increase the runoff volume and rate of discharge from the road surface. H.1.25 A high-level water quality assessment (HAWRAT, Highways Agency Water Risk Assessment Tool) has been undertaken for Junction 2 (within the Low/Wortley/Pudsey Becks water body), where high level drainage design has been undertaken. Although an assessment is not required due to runoff going into the sewer network, an assessment has been undertaken in order to provide some assessment of the quality of the runoff from the junction resulting from the known increase in impermeable area. This has been included under the physico-chemical component. Once a detailed drainage design has been established, and information is known on any new discharges which may have an impact upon

Revision C06 Page 309 of 386

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

those pollutants, the assessment will be updated. Information and results of the HAWRAT assessment are shown in Table H-6. H.1.26 Table H-4 screens the impact of the works from the proposed Scheme on the Aire and Calder Carboniferous Limestone/Millstone Grit/Coal Measures groundwater WFD water body. Information on construction aspects which may affect groundwater have been obtained at a high level from the engineering team and are used to assess the potential impact upon groundwater flow and pollution pathways. As the detailed drainage design for the proposed Scheme has not yet been established it has not been possible to assess the impact of drainage of road runoff to groundwater. This will be reviewed once this information is available. • Piling: Piling activities are likely to include: bored pile groups for the gantries, the diameter and depth of which are to be confirmed; sheet piles and king post piles for retaining structures, the depth of which will also be confirmed; driven/ planted piles may be required for minor structures such as CCTV masts. • De-watering: It is possible that some dewatering activities would be required for temporary works associated with the construction drive pits for Cross Carriageway Ducts (CCDs). • Tunnelling: Directional drilling would be required for the construction of new CCDs.

De-watering has the potential to cause a local decrease in groundwater levels. Some dewatering is likely to be required, however this is for temporary works and any impacts would be minor and short-term. Tunnelling has the potential to disrupt groundwater flow paths.

Piling is due to be undertaken across the proposed Scheme for various different structures, although detail on the depths of piling is yet to be confirmed. However, it is assumed that these would only cause minor, local impacts. Once further information on piling can be provided this can be confirmed. Detailed drainage design for the proposed Scheme is yet to be undertaken and therefore it is not possible yet to assess whether there would be any discharges to groundwater which may impact upon water quality.

Screening assessment results and recommendations H.1.27 The screening assessment indicates that the proposed works are unlikely to result in a deterioration in status for all the of the elements assessed for both the surface water and groundwater bodies. This assessment will be confirmed, and updated, once detailed information on the drainage strategy is available. Potential Mitigation H.1.28 No specific measures were identified within the Humber RBMP as part of the programme of measures to achieve Good Status/Potential by 2021. However, relevant mitigation measures should be considered as part of this study together with further opportunities to help meet the objective of Good Ecological Potential under the WFD. PCF Stage 3 Mitigation (as outlined in the EAR) H.1.29 Construction mitigation includes: • following pollution prevent and construction best practice (i.e. Environment Agency Pollution Prevention Guidelines (PPGs)) • production of an incident response plan • temporary site drainage to retain surface run-off within site boundary • no controlled discharges or abstractions without consent from the Environment Agency • discharges generated through construction should be controlled using the existing drainage network, and where possible ensure no increase to flood risk • Production of a Construction Environment Management Plan (CEMP)

WFD Mitigation/Enhancement H.1.30 From a WFD perspective while the works are unlikely to cause a status change of any WFD element, measures should be considered which can contribute to the overall water body and catchment objectives. Priority management issues for the Aire and Calder catchment are: • Mitigation of the effects of HMWBs • Point source pollution, primarily from water company assets • Diffuse pollution, both urban and rural H.1.31 The four WFD water bodies included in this assessment are assessed as being HMWB but there are few opportunities to mitigate for physical modification as many of the watercourses in the vicinity of the proposed Scheme and within the heavily urbanised are culverted. There may be opportunities to mitigate the effects of point source pollution through working in collaboration with the local water company (Yorkshire Water) in the long term, but the opportunities are limited on this particular scheme. In terms of diffuse pollution, any tree loss associated with the proposed Scheme is being mitigated through replacement planting. All vegetation helps to reduce the rate of runoff and soil loss. H.1.32 Milshaw Beck from Source to Low/Wortley/Pudsey Beck (GB104027062750) is not achieving Good status due to physical modification for urbanisation, affecting its Mitigation Measures Assessment. It is also impacted by point source sewage discharges, which affect the ammonia (phys-chem), phosphate and invertebrate element assessments. The lower 1.5 km of Milshaw Beck (downstream of its confluence with Farnley Wood Beck) are culverted. The EA have said that they would eventually like to see this watercourse daylighted. They currently have the Live Streaming Leeds (was Leeds Urban Becks) Project within this area, which is currently working on de-culverting, re-naturalisation and reducing sediment input to . However, there are opportunities for future phases to look at Holbeck and Milshaw Beck. Daylighting opportunities within urban areas can be difficult to find due to the constraints of urban development over the culverted watercourse. There may be further opportunities for habitat improvements within the open channel sections of Farnley Wood Beck, and further upstream on Milshaw Beck, but these are beyond the proposed Scheme boundary. A wider objective within the water body could be for consultation to be undertaken with the local water company (Yorkshire Water) to identify if there are any opportunities for addressing the point source sewage discharges within the water body to reduce their impact upon the water quality. H.1.33 Low/Wortley/Pudsey Beck (GB104027062830) is not achieving Good status due to physical modification for flood protection, land drainage and urbanisation, affecting its Mitigation Measures Assessment. It is also impacted by point source sewage discharges and barriers to ecological continuity which affect the fish element assessment. Approximately 3 km of the lower reaches of Wortley Beck are culverted, downstream of its confluence with Milshaw Beck, as it flows into the River Aire. Measures could be considered upstream of the culvert (through Wortley, Farnley and upstream) to offset of the physical modification and improve the habitat for fish, but this is beyond the boundary of the proposed Scheme. A wider objective within the water body would be for consultation to be undertaken with the local water company (Yorkshire Water) to identify if there are any

opportunities for addressing the point source sewage discharges within the water body to reduce their impact upon the water quality. H.1.34 The Aire from Gill Beck (Baildon) to River Calder (GB104027063032) is not achieving Good status due to physical modification for flood protection, urbanisation and navigation, affecting its Mitigation Measures Assessment. It is also impacted by point source sewage discharges which affect the phosphate, invertebrates and Diazinon element assessment. The River Aire is not culverted and there may be space for improvement upstream of Leeds City Centre where there is open green space on either side of the channel (i.e. around Rodley). A wider objective within the water body could be for consultation to be undertaken with the local water company (Yorkshire Water) to identify if there are any opportunities for addressing the point source sewage discharges within the waterbody to reduce their impact upon the water quality. H.1.35 Batley Beck from Source to River Calder (GB104027062670) is not achieving Good status due to Physical modifications from flood protection and urbanisation affecting its Mitigation Measures Assessment and its invertebrates element assessment. It is also impacted by point source sewage (intermittent) discharges which are affecting its invertebrates and phosphate element assessment and diffuse source pollution from urban and transport is affecting its phosphate element assessment. Hawley Beck is not culverted, however there may be space for improvement in its upper reaches where this is open space either side of the channel. A wider objective within the water body could be for consultation to be undertaken with the local water company (Yorkshire Water) to identify if there are any opportunities for addressing the point source sewage discharges within the water body to reduce their impact upon the water quality. H.1.36 Progressing appropriate mitigation/enhancement measures would achieve multiple benefits for the water environment and go towards meeting the objectives of the WFD and meeting Highways England KPIs. Due to the constraints around the proposed Scheme (heavily urbanised and culverted watercourses) and no direct works proposed to the watercourses, there are few opportunities for enhancement as part of the proposed Scheme. However, there may be a chance to consider enhancements with the Environment Agency and catchment partners as part of the Highways England Environment Fund. Conclusions H.1.37 This report has undertaken a WFD assessment of the impacts of the M621 Junction 1 to 7 Scheme upon four WFD surface water bodies and one groundwater body which cover the study area. The proposed Scheme comprises mainly technological works between Junctions 1 to 5, with construction works focussed around Junctions 2 to 3 and a construction compound near Junction 7, and no direct works to the watercourses. The assessment has shown that there are unlikely to be any impacts upon the quality elements for the four-surface water and the groundwater body. However, further information on the detailed drainage design and piling depths is required in order to confirm the assessment in terms of pollution from road drainage and increased runoff. Once this information is available then this assessment will be updated. H.1.38 Opportunities for mitigation and enhancement within the surface water bodies were also identified at a wider scale (beyond the proposed Scheme boundary), which focussed on physical improvements to the channels to improve habitat and

ecology and also consultation with the local water company to identify opportunities to address point source sewage discharges. The EA highlighted Milshaw Beck as a watercourse for daylighting as part of a current project they are undertaking within Leeds. These enhancements could be considered as part of the Highways England Environment Fund. References

The assessments require a variety of baseline parameters and drainage design information. As runoff from Junction 2 enters the sewer network, some assumptions about the receptor have been made to undertake a cautionary assessment: • Very High importance of receptor. • As no water quality monitoring data is available, water hardness was taken from the Drinking Water Inspectorate water hardness map. • As no flow monitoring data is available, default low flow and BFI values were used. H.1.40 Data inputs for the HAWRAT assessment for both the baseline and opening year are shown in Table H-5.

H.1.41 Table H-6 summarises the results of the assessments. It provides results in terms of RST and EQS (EQS, annual averages) which assess the acute and chronic pollution impacts, respectively, on aquatic ecology associated with soluble and sediment bound pollutants. Spillage risk results are the probability of a serious spillage risk occurring from a serious accident that would affect the water environment in terms of a return period. Typically, an annual probability of 1% (i.e. a 1 in 100 chance of a serious pollution incident occurring in any one year) is considered by DMRB as an acceptable risk.

H.1.42 The junction passes all of the water quality assessments for both the baseline conditions and the opening year conditions. This would result in a Negligible magnitude of impact from runoff in terms of water quality, and an overall Neutral significance of effects. This assessment was undertaken with very precautionary flow values, which would provide little dilution to runoff, therefore if flow values of receptors were to increase once this information is known then the water quality assessments would still pass. The HAWRAT assessment will be refined upon receipt of detailed drainage data.

I.1.8 The Site Allocations Plan (SAP) is a key document in the Local Plan for Leeds. The SAP identifies sites for housing, employment, retail and greenspace to ensure that enough land is available in appropriate locations to meet the growth targets set out in the Core Strategy.

I.1.10 The National Cycle Network (NCN) has multiple designated routes across the study corridor which largely follow the same paths as the PRoW. There are significant NCN provisions between Junction 2 and Junction 5, on either side of the motorway. The majority of NCN’s are located away from the existing highways alignment. Those located at Junctions 3 and 4 are generally adjacent to the eastbound carriageway. I.1.11 The PRoW and NCN provide community linkages and access routes between different communities and associated facilities along the M621 corridor. This includes the communities of Beeston, Hunslet Carr and Belle Isle to the south of the westbound carriageway, and Holbeck and Hunslet to the north of the eastbound carriageway. Human Health I.1.12 The information below sets out an overview of the existing baseline conditions for physical, mental and social wellbeing of relevance for the proposed Scheme. It presents a high-level review of existing conditions, using available secondary data, including the ‘best fit’ of Middle Super Output Areas (MSOAs) that cover the extent of the proposed Scheme and NHS clinical areas, as follows: • ONS • Census 2011 • BHF 2018 • DfT • NHS Digital Mental Health Services Data Set monthly report • Public Health England

I.1.13 The baseline identifies particular priority groups (e.g. children and adolescents, women, older people, people who are disabled and/or with other health problems, those in low income groups/people without access to a car, adults/working age people) because changes to overall health determinants can have greater or lesser effects on population sub-groups depending on, for example, their age, health, status, income and social support. Sensitive groups are more likely to be susceptible to the impacts of the proposed Scheme than other social groups.

I.1.14 Table I-10 above shows that the total population for the study area in 2011 was 97,850 (Census 2011). The population profile shows that 18.6% of the population were aged under 16, which is below the figure for Leeds, Kirklees and the Yorkshire and Humber Region, and slightly below the England average. The proportion of the population aged 65 and over is significantly less (12.4%) than Leeds, Kirklees and the England average (16.3%) (ONS Population Estimates and Census).

I.1.15 As indicated in Table I-11 above, the general health of residents in the study area is similar to the England average in all categories, and generally similar to Leeds and Kirklees. Almost half of the population of the study area (46.5%) had very good health, 34.8% had good health, 4.5% had bad health and 1.3% had very bad health (Census 2011). Bad health within the study area (4.5%) is slightly higher than the England average (4.2%).

I.1.17 No statistics relating to mortality rates because of cardiovascular disease are available for the study area itself. Table I-13 above highlights that mortality rates overall from cardiovascular disease for Leeds (280 per 100,000) and Kirklees (288) are greater than the average for England (253). Mortality rates from cardiovascular disease generally are over 50% more prevalent in men than women, across all areas. I.1.18 The Leeds 2017 Air Quality Annual Status Report (ASR) notes ‘Air pollution is associated with a number of adverse health impacts. It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most sensitive in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas’. I.1.19 The Air Quality technical chapter notes there is only one air quality management area (AQMA) within the air quality study area, the Tilbury’s AQMA (properties adjacent to the eastbound slip road of Junction 2 of the M621 and the A653 Ingram Road Distributor). This was designated due to exceedances of the annual mean N2 UK AQS objective.

Local Health Determinants Public Health I.1.26 Most people in the wider study area, Leeds and Kirklees consider their health to be good or very good and are free from long-term health problems or disabilities - at rates of 81.3%, 81.9% and 80.5% respectively, broadly consistent with the Leeds City Region LEP and national averages. General health within the wider study area is similar to the national average, Leeds and Kirklees. Bad health is slightly higher than the England average. Limiting long-term illness or disability is less prevalent in the wider study area compared to the national average, Leeds and Kirklees. I.1.27 Leeds and Kirklees perform worse than the national average on a number of mortality measures, including male and female life expectancy, under 75 mortality rates and suicide rates. The highest suicide rate in Leeds is in the 35-64 age range, with suicide rates higher in under-65s than regional and national rates. The under 75 mortality rates for cancer and cardiovascular disease, at 151.3 and 87.8 per 100,000 in 2014-16 are notably higher in Leeds than the national averages (136.8 and 73.5 respectively). Deaths from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the second largest cause of potential years of life lost (PYLL) in Leeds. They account for around a quarter of all deaths. Cancer accounts for over 30% of the life expectancy gap between Leeds and the rest of England. Cancer and cardiovascular rates in Kirklees (141.7 and 79.6 respectively) are also higher than the national average. I.1.28 Deaths from respiratory disease are the third single cause of PYLL in Leeds. Rates are significantly higher in deprived areas than the non-deprived part of Leeds. I.1.29 Infant mortality and dementia diagnosis are higher in Leeds and Kirklees than the national average. I.1.30 The rate of people killed or seriously injured on the roads in Leeds (at 43.2 per 100,000 population compared with 39.7 across England) is higher than the national average. The rate of people killed or seriously injured on the roads in Kirklees (at 36.8 per 100,000 population) is lower than the national average. There were 2,203 and 970 reported road casualties (all casualties) in Leeds and Kirklees respectively in 2017. There has been a significant decrease in reported road traffic accidents in Kirklees between 2012 and 2016 (down 33.3%) and decrease in reported road accidents in Leeds (down 19.8%) over the same period. In line with national trends, however, cycle casualties have not improved, a trend that reflects greater usage of this mode of travel. I.1.31 The Personal Injury Accidents in Leeds - Sites for Concern (2012-2016) document produced by Leeds City Council in October 2017, identified the M621 junctions with Wakefield Road (Stourton roundabout) (Junction 7) and with Elland Road (Junction 2). The majority of these collisions were the result of nose-to-tail collisions and lane changing. I.1.32 Leeds and Kirklees suffer relatively poor physical health in the following respects: excess weight in adults (aged 18+), smoking prevalence, alcohol related harm hospital stays, new cases of tuberculosis and under 18 conception rates, which are above national trends. Leeds also suffers higher than average incidences of sexually-transmitted disease (Kirklees is below average). Many of these are lifestyle related choices. The proportion of physically active adults in Kirklees

(61%) is lower than the national average (66%), whilst in Leeds (66.4%) it is broadly in line with the national trend. That said, 1 in 5 adults in Leeds is inactive and physical activity in Leeds is the 4th largest cause of disease and disability. Diabetes diagnosis in Leeds and Kirklees is broadly in line with the national average. I.1.33 Statistics from Public Health England show that 21.1% and 19.1% of Year 6 pupils were declared obese in Kirklees and Leeds respectively, between April 2016 and March 2017, which is above and below the national average (20%). Over one-third of Year 6 pupils were declared overweight and obese in both areas. I.1.34 The smoking rate amongst the adult population of Kirklees (17.1%) and Leeds (16.7%) exceeds the national rate of approximately 15% (2017). Accordingly, smoking attributable hospital admissions (1,914 and 1,726 per 100,000 population in people aged 35 and over in Kirklees and Leeds respectively) and smoking related deaths (292 and 332 per 100,000 population in people aged 35 and over in Kirklees and Leeds respectively) exceed the national rates (1685 and 272 respectively). I.1.35 In Kirklees, 4 in 10 adults walk/cycle in a typical week (only 4% cycle) and 1 in 3 young people travel actively (bike or walk) to school. 1 in 3 people commute less than 5 km to work by car. Half of people perceive problems with traffic (speeding, parking etc.) whilst 1 in 26 annual deaths in people over the age of 30 are attributable to air pollution. Mental Health and Social Wellbeing I.1.36 Mental health admissions rates to hospital in Leeds South and East CCG (which covers most of the core and wider study areas) are significantly higher (1.338 per 100,000 population) than the average for England (0.875). Mental health admission rates for Leeds West CCG (0.906) is slightly higher than the England average, with North Kirklees CCG and Leeds North CCG being lower28. It is estimated that 105,000 people in Leeds suffer from anxiety and depression. People with severe mental health illness die on average 15-20 years earlier than the rest of the population in Leeds29. I.1.37 Response from the Healthy Community Surveys in Leeds found that, 80% of adults said they are ‘satisfied’ with their life overall, and a similar proportion felt ‘happy’. Similarly, 80% of young people said they generally enjoy life and 81% said they feel happy most or every day. However, higher levels of poor mental health and wellbeing and mental illness are inextricably linked with deprivation in Leeds. Local mapping highlights these issues and emphasises the geographic concentration of mental health and wellbeing in the most deprived communities. Leeds has significantly higher levels of recorded psychotic disorders than predicted from national prevalence data30. I.1.38 1 in 3 adults under 50 in Kirklees are reported as having a mental health condition (up from 1 in 5 in 2012)31. I.1.39 There is evidence that some mental health problems in Leeds are becoming more prevalent, such as depression. It is also estimated that 37,000 older people (aged over 60) in Leeds, accounting for 8.5% of the population. experience social

isolation or loneliness. 1 in 3 adults with bad/very bad health and/or adults not working due to ill health disability in Kirklees feel lonely or isolated most/ all of the time32. I.1.40 Leeds suffers a significantly higher level of violent crime than the national average, with 31.3 offences per 1,000 residents compared to 20 across England (2016-17). Statistics for Kirklees (24.3 offences per 1,000 residents) are also higher than the national average. I.1.41 Statutory homelessness in Leeds (3.1 crude rate per 1,000 households) (2016/7) is nearly four times higher than the national average (0.8 per 1,000 households). Inequalities I.1.42 Socio-economic inequalities have material impacts on health. There are significant gaps in life expectancy between affluent and deprived areas in Leeds and Kirklees - 12.7 and 8.8 years lower for men and 9.0 and 6.4 years lower for women, respectively (2014-16). I.1.43 The assessment of poverty in Leeds highlights the correlation between economic disadvantage and poor outcomes for children, young people and adults in the city. The clear impact of worklessness, financial exclusion and poor housing on health, educational attainment and broader life chances is concentrated in certain parts of the city. I.1.44 The wider study area, over 40% of the population of Leeds South and East CCG area live within the most deprived areas of Leeds and have significant health and wellbeing issues linked to wider factors such as poverty, educational attainment, and unemployment. Crime is also a significant issue. Within the Council’s South East Management Area, the Inner South Community Committee Area has the second highest premature mortality rate for all causes in the city as well as the highest rate of premature mortality from respiratory disease. ‘City and Hunslet’ ward has the second lowest life expectancy in the city for women at 77.2 years. ‘Beeston and Holbeck’ ward in the South East Management area has the second highest death rate in the city for cancer (under 75s), and ‘City and Hunslet’ ward has the highest rates of early death from respiratory disease in Leeds. Wider Health Determinants Socio-Demographic Profile I.1.45 Leeds population numbered 801,600 in 2017 and is projected to rise by 5.3% between 2016 and 2026. Kirklees population numbered 422,500 in 2017 and is projected to rise by 4.3% between 2016 and 2026. The wider study area and Kirklees have a smaller proportion of residents aged 65 and over compared to England, whilst Leeds has a higher proportion of residents aged over 65 years. Both areas have an ageing population; as the baby-boomer generation grows older there will be a range of implications. An older population is associated with higher incidence of physical and mental illness, the latter ranging from diseases such as stroke, diabetes and dementia, to the effects of social isolation. In the future, ensuring that older people get care and support when they need it and are enabled to live independently will be a key challenge.

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

I.1.46 Leeds and Kirklees witness relatively high levels of deprivation ranked 70th and 94th respectively out of 326 local authorities in the 2015 Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD). According to the IMD, around 150,000 people in Leeds are reported to be living in areas ranked amongst the most deprived 10% nationally. These high levels of deprivation and social and economic polarisation are likely to exert a detrimental influence on the population’s physical, mental and social- wellbeing. I.1.47 Leeds has a relatively high unemployment rate (1.7%), higher than the average for England (1.1%). Kirklees has a lower unemployment rate of 0.9%. Unemployment has generally decreased in Leeds and Kirklees between 2014 to 2018, following the national trend. I.1.48 The proportion of working age residents claiming benefits in Kirklees and Leeds (12.3% and 11.6% respectively) are higher than the average for England (10.7%). The proportion of residents claiming ESA and incapacity benefits is also higher than the England average. I.1.49 In 2017, 20.3% and 16.5% of secondary school children, and 19.5% and 17.6% of primary school children in Kirklees and Leeds respectively were entitled to free school meals compared to national figures of 13.8% and 14.7% respectively. I.1.50 19.6% of children in Leeds and 17.3% of children in Kirklees live-in low-income families, compared to 16.8% of the population nationally. I.1.51 Educational attainment to at least Level 4 or higher (2017) in Leeds (36.4%) and Kirklees (32.7%) is below the national average. The proportion achieving 5 A*-C grades in GCSE’s including English and Maths in Leeds (54.8%) and Kirklees (56.3%) is also below the national average (57.8%). Unemployment in Kirklees (5.1%) is higher than the national average (4.4%); the unemployment rate in Leeds (4.1%) is below the national average. I.1.52 In the last decade the BME population in Leeds has increased from 11% to 19%, and the number of residents born outside the UK has almost doubled to over 86,000 people. I.1.53 The baseline identifies the following priority/sensitive groups. Sensitive groups are more likely to be susceptible to the impacts of the proposed Scheme than other social groups. Sensitive Groups Children and Adolescents I.1.54 In the wider study area 18.6% of the population is under 16, which is just below the national average (18.9%) and lower than for Kirklees (19%) and Leeds (20.4%). I.1.55 The Leeds Maternity Health Needs assessment (2014) reported that 30% of births in Leeds occur to families living in the 10% most deprived Lower Super Output areas (approximately 3,150 births per annum). I.1.56 The Early Years Foundation Stage Profile for Leeds (2016-2017), based upon children achieving a good level of development in the early years (e.g. those achieving at least the expected level within the following areas of learning: communication and language; physical development; personal, social and

Revision C06 Page 343 of 386

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

emotional development; literacy; and mathematics), is lower at 64.8% than the national average (70.7%). I.1.57 The number of under 15 hospital admissions caused by unintentional and deliberate injuries in Leeds (121.5 per 10,000 population) is higher than the regional (107.1) and national (101.5) averages. Women I.1.58 399,592 residents in Leeds are female. This accounts for over half (50.9%) of the total population for Leeds (ONS 2017). Life expectancy in the most deprived areas of Leeds and Kirklees compared to the least deprived areas is 9.0 years and 6.4 years lower for women, respectively. I.1.59 The number of female smokers (18 years +) and hip fractures (persons aged 65+) are both higher in Leeds than the regional and national averages33. Older People I.1.60 12.4% of the population in the wider study area is aged over 65, which is less than the averages for Kirklees (15.4%), England (16.3%) and Leeds (20.4%). I.1.61 12% (38,326) of total households in Leeds comprise one-person households occupied by residents aged 65 and over (ONS Census 2011). I.1.62 The number of people aged over 65 is estimated to rise by almost a third to over 150,000 by 2030. The International Longevity Centre (2014) states that by 2037 people aged 65 years and over in Leeds will account for 1 in 4 of the population. I.1.63 An estimated 37,000 older people in Leeds experience isolation or loneliness. People who are disabled and/or with other health problems I.1.64 8% of residents in the wider study area has a long-term health problem or disability. This is slightly below the Leeds average (7.9%) and below the national (8.3%) and Kirklees (8.4%). More people generally are developing multiple long- term conditions. I.1.65 105,000 people in Leeds suffer from anxiety and depression. People with severe mental illness die on average 15-20 years earlier than the rest of the population. Low-income groups I.1.66 Leeds and Kirklees witness relatively high levels of deprivation. Around 164,000 people in Leeds are reported to be living in areas ranked amongst the most deprived 10% nationally. One in five children in Leeds live in child poverty. The proportion of residents in Leeds claiming Job Seekers Allowance (1.7%) (May 2018) and benefits (11.6%) is higher than the national average. I.1.67 People living in deprived neighbourhoods are more likely to experience multiple disadvantage, die earlier, and have more years in long-term ill health. Living Environment I.1.68 Leeds and Kirklees are ranked the 43rd and 50th most deprived in Living Environment in England, a measure which encompasses quality of housing, air quality and road traffic accidents. Housing affordability and quality are key issues.

33 Hospital Episode Statistics Revision C06 Page 344 of 386

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

Areas of Leeds with the lowest overall green space provision are predominantly inner city, high density housing areas. I.1.69 Like most large cities, Leeds has a substantial amount of older housing, which tends to be concentrated in more deprived neighbourhoods. What sets Leeds apart from other places, is the large amount of back-to-back housing still in use across the city. Much is in poor condition, particularly in relation to energy efficiency. Links between fuel poverty, poor housing and ill health are well established. I.1.70 In Leeds, 70,000 net new dwellings will be required between 2012 and 2028 with a target of at least 4,700 per year for 2017 to 2022. In Kirklees, 1,730 new homes need to be provided each year and 1,049 new affordable homes are required to meet demand. I.1.71 Leeds and Kirklees have a wide range of community uses provided by public, private and voluntary sectors. These can contribute to health and wellbeing through promoting social cohesion, relaxation and recreation, and are a resource of particular importance to children and sensitive households. However, the location and quality of facilities, and accessibility to them, is subject to spatial and social variation. I.1.72 Leeds City Council’s plans for the redevelopment of Leeds City centre include the closure of some city centre routes to all private vehicles, which will transfer traffic that currently travels through the city centre onto the M621. There is also an aspiration to construct 10,200 new dwellings and create 57,500 new jobs in Leeds by 2031, which would be constrained without improvement of the existing M621. In addition, 85,000 people from outside Leeds commute and work in the city each day. I.1.73 Public Health England inform that long and short-term exposure to air pollution are known to adversely affect health. Short-term exposure (over hours or days) to elevated levels of air pollution can cause a range of effects including exacerbation of asthma, effects on lung function, increases in hospital admissions and mortality. Epidemiological studies have shown that long-term exposure (over several years) reduces life-expectancy, mainly due to increased risk of mortality from cardiovascular and respiratory causes and from lung cancer. For Leeds, the Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF) informs that an estimated 4.3% of all-cause mortality is attributable to air pollution. It is also likely that air pollution places an additional burden on many people, being a contributory factor in bringing deaths forward, rather than being the sole cause of death for individuals. Evidence shows how air pollution disproportionately affects sensitive groups, such as children, older adults, and people with existing medical conditions. Individuals and families with a low income may also be affected in this way, as they are more likely to live in accommodation near the busiest, most polluted roads because it tends to be cheaper. I.1.74 Noise and vibration also negatively affect health and wellbeing in Leeds and Kirklees in a spatially differentiated way, with some areas subject to significant disturbance. The dominant sources of noise include road and rail traffic, construction, noisy neighbours, entertainment venues, pavement cafés/outdoor seating, noisy building services, plant and equipment. I.1.75 Further details on living environment determinants of health can be found within the baseline assessments of the following other technical chapters:

Revision C06 Page 345 of 386

Preliminary Design Environmental Assessment Report Volume 2: Appendices

• Air Quality • Noise and vibration • Waste and materials • Road drainage and the water environment Summary of Human Health Baseline I.1.76 Despite generally good levels of health, Leeds population suffers excessively from poor mental health, whilst mental health issues in Kirklees are becoming more prevalent. Leeds and Kirklees perform worse than the national average on a number of mortality measures, whilst lifestyle-related issues such as excess weight in adults, smoking prevalence, alcohol related harm hospital stays, new cases of tuberculosis and under 18 conception rates are also higher. The rate of people killed or seriously injured on the roads in Leeds is higher than the national average. I.1.77 Significant and entrenched inequalities exist in health outcomes, which are linked to socio-economic polarisation across Leeds and Kirklees. In addition, an ageing population and breadth of social facilities in the local area increases the potential presence of sensitive groups who are particularly susceptible to negative health impacts. I.1.78 In addition to socio-economic disparities and deprivation, health issues are likely to be exacerbated by a poor living environment characterised by high levels of air pollution and noise, and deficiencies in housing and green space – determinants which themselves are unevenly distributed. Generally, the worst living conditions are located closest to the transport networks. Sensitivity of Determinants I.1.79 Sensitivity of direct determinants, as outlined below, depends on whether the determinant is likely to be directly affected by changes to wider determinants caused by the proposed Scheme and whether the determinant is well placed to deal with impacts. This is summarised in Table I-20 below. Table I-20: Sensitivity of direct health determinants Determinant Features identified in Sensitivity Comment baseline Physical General physical Low General health of the study area health health population is good, thus should not be substantially affected by changes to wider health determinants resulting from the proposed Scheme Excess weight/obesity High An acute health issue, particularly in children, linked to lifestyle therefore likely to be affected by changes to wider health determinants resulting from the proposed Scheme. Road-related Medium An acute health issue, particularly in injuries/deaths Leeds, partly linked to built- environment thus could be affected by changes to wider health determinants resulting from the proposed Scheme.
