1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Overview 1.1.1 Entran Ltd has been appointed to prepare a Travel Plan in connection with a proposed Aldi store at Methuen Park, Chippenham. 1.1.2 This document will be relevant to staff of the proposed Aldi store and will suggest initiatives to maximise the sustainable transport opportunities of the site and will, prior to trading, be developed as a standalone document. This Travel Plan has been prepared in line with national, regional and local policy and should be seen as an on-going process that will be implemented by the occupiers of the development. 1.1.3 This document excludes any other uses on the site.

1.2 Development Proposals - Overview 1.2.1 The development proposal is for the erection of Class A1 food store comprising  Aldi GFA - 1,858 sqm  Car Parking - 101 spaces inc: 5 blue bade spaces and 8 P&T spaces  Cycle Parking - 8 spaces

1.3 Site Scale 1.3.1 An Aldi store is a modest scale supermarket, generally fulfilling a neighbourhood shopping role. Aldi is complementary to the existing pattern of trade within the local area. The total range of products sold in an Aldi store is limited to approximately 1100 lines with a limited range of 24 seasonal fruit and vegetable items which are delivered fresh to the store on a daily basis, where possible from local suppliers. Around 15 products in Aldi’s bread and morning goods range are managed and procured in the same way. Milk is also sourced locally. 1.3.2 Aldi have a policy of limited trading hours, which are generally as follows:

 Monday – Saturday 0800am – 2200pm; and

 Sunday 1000am – 1700pm. 1.3.3 30 to 50 staff are employed at each store, comprising a Store Manager, Assistant Store Manager and Store Assistants.

1.4 Travel Plan Structure 1.4.1 The Travel Plan for the site is structured as follows:

 What Is A Travel Plan

 Policy

 The Development And Its Location

 Travel Plan Approach

 Objectives, Benefits And Targets

 Measures And Actions; and Monitoring

2.0 WHAT IS A TRAVEL PLAN

2.1 Introduction 2.1.1 A Travel Plan seeks to reduce car use, encouraging alternative transport choices and reducing the need to travel. It sets aims and tangible targets so that ‘real’ change in transport behaviour can be achieved i.e. encouraging a modal shift away from single occupancy car use to more sustainable means of travel such as public transport, walking and cycling. 2.1.2 A clear definition of a Travel Plan is as follows:

“A Travel Plan is a long term travel management strategy built on a package of site specific measures aimed at promoting sustainable travel, with an emphasis on reducing reliance on single occupancy car journeys and reducing the need to travel.”

2.1.3 The ultimate aim of any Travel Plan should be to influence long term changes in travel behaviour by providing the right package of measures that promote and value sustainable transport initiatives. It is crucial to the success of a Travel Plan that the measures are site specific and tailored to the needs of the existing and future users of the site. 2.1.4 A Travel Plan is a dynamic process which will grow and develop with time, and with the changing circumstances of the site and the environment in which it works. It should be stressed that the Travel Plan will be flexible when determining which exact measures are implemented, and allow for changes to be made in line with Travel Plan performance.

2.2 Why a Travel Plan is required 2.2.1 A Travel Plan should be viewed as a positive tool that will have a real benefit to the users of the site and to the surrounding area. By submission of this document the applicant is committing the operator of the site to implement the recommendations of this ITP. 2.2.2 Travel Plans help to reduce the impact of travel on the environment and reduce costs for individuals and have a number of benefits such as:

 Helping to inform the design and operation of the development;

 The promotion of measures such as walking and cycling, which can help to improve the health of staff at the site;

 The reduction in the cost of travelling to and from the site;

 The reduction of congestion and improved access to the site. This has the knock on effect of reducing local pollution levels in terms of noise and harmful vehicle emissions such as Carbon Monoxide; and

 The improvement of accessibility by facilitating and promoting sustainable transport initiatives, thus reducing the reliance on the car.

2.3 Components of the Travel Plan 2.3.1 As explained earlier, this draft TP sets the parameters for a full TP to be developed following interpretation of the proposed initial travel surveys. There are a number of key components required within the TP to ensure that an effective and successful strategy is implemented. The key components include:

 Background Information – the existing travel habits of staff must be identified and the reasons for them understood, before any attempt can be made to influence transport choices;

 Objectives and targets – once the existing conditions are known and appropriate audits undertaken, realistic, attainable, time-bound objectives can be developed, in the light of operational and budgetary constraints. Objectives and targets may be different. Objectives may

Aldi, Travel Plan 3

be as abstract as explaining the reason for implementing certain measures whereas targets may be measurable outcomes or goals;

 Measures – having set the objectives the appropriate measures required to attain them should be identified. This process will be an evolutionary one and the measures adopted may vary over time as new partners are found and the effectiveness of measures are evaluated. Therefore, both long and short term policies and initiatives need to be developed. As directed the measures should be ‘worked up’ in partnership with the local highway and planning authorities;

 This TP identifies two types of measure; secured and potential. The secured measures are those which will be delivered as part of the proposed TP. These may include both infrastructure and management practices. The proposed measures are those which are not considered appropriate at this stage but which will need to be reviewed following each survey and review session;

 Raising awareness and Marketing – it is essential, if the plan is to succeed that a wave of awareness and involvement must be created and the strategy to achieve this must be flexible, but an outline approach is set out within this TP; and

 Monitoring and Review – The range of success achieved can only be recognised if attitudes to transport and the measures adopted are monitored from the beginning. This TP therefore sets a programme for surveys and reviews. 2.3.2 It should be noted that each TP is a document that will evolve over time as additional information becomes available and the travel habits of staff change. To consider any document to be the definitive TP for the development will lead to an ineffective, and ultimately, obsolete initiative. The plan needs to set out the policy objectives and initiatives, but allow them to develop and evolve over time.

2.4 Policy 2.4.1 The following Policy documents have been reviewed in the process of compiling this TP

 National Planning Policy Framework 2012

 Regional Policy

 Local Policy on Travel Planning

 In 2009, the Department for Transport published Guidance on securing travel plans through the planning system.

3.0 THE DEVELOPMENT AND ITS LOCATION

3.1 Development Composition 3.1.1 The development proposal is for the erection of Class A1 food store comprising  ALDI food store (GFA of 1859 sq.m);  101 parking spaces, blue badge (5 spaces) and parents and child (8 spaces). This level of parking provision is considered to be commensurate with both trading and operational requirements; and  8 cycle parking spaces.

3.2 Existing Site Use and Access 3.2.1 The development site is located on Methuen Park, in the south western part of Chippenham and is accessed off the primary estate road via a standard priority junction. 3.2.2 The site was previously occupied by a public house which has been closed for some time. 3.2.3 An illustration of the existing site is provided in Figure 3.1.

Figure 3.1 – Existing Site Plan

3.2.4 The primary estate road provides access to a wide range of business and commercial outlets and is subject to a 30mph speed limit, is lit and benefits from footways along both flanks. 3.2.5 The estate road meets the A4 via a large 5-arm roundabout, which provides access to the rest of Chippenham, the greater highway network and surrounding towns and villages.

Aldi, Travel Plan 5

3.2.6 The A4 in this location is subject to a 40mph speed limit, is lit and benefits from footways along both flanks, cycleways and bus stops. 3.2.7 The site in its strategic context is shown in Figure 3.2 and local context in 3.3 below.

3.3 Pedestrian/Cycle Facilities 3.3.1 The Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB) TD 91/05 “Provision for Non-Motorised Users” states in paragraph 2.3 that “walking is used to access a wide variety of destinations including educational facilities, shops, and places of work, normally within a range of up to 2 miles. 3.3.2 The TD also states in paragraph 2.11 that “cycling is used for accessing a variety of different destinations, including educational facilities, shops and places of work, up to a range of around 5 miles. Cycling is also undertaken as a leisure activity, often over much longer distances. As well as being a mode of transport in its own right, cycling frequently forms part of a journey in combination with cars and public transport”. 3.3.3 Local Transport Note (LTN) 2/08 Cycle Infrastructure Design details in paragraph 1.5 “Typical cycle trip distances”. In common with other modes, many utility cycle journeys are less than three miles, although, for commuter journeys, a trip distance of over five miles is not uncommon. Novice and occasional leisure cyclists will cycle longer distances where the cycle ride is the primary purpose of their journey. A round trip on a way-marked leisure route could easily involve distances of 20 to 30 miles. Experienced cyclists will often be prepared to cycle longer distances for whatever journey purpose.’’

Walking 3.3.4 The application site is accessible via the existing footway network. There are a number of signalised and non-signalised pedestrian crossing facilities local to the site such that the A4 and the estate road do not act as barriers to movement. 3.3.5 A large residential catchment well as other retail outlets including Marks and Spencer, Sainsburys, TK Maxx and Next can be reached from a 1km walking distance from the application site. All footpaths are well in good quality condition and well lit. This demonstrates that the application site is situated with good pedestrian infrastructure and further promotes journeys by foot. 3.3.6 The local footway network is shown in Plates A to C below.

Plate B – Footway network looking at the site

Plate C – Footway network looking towards the A4 and nearby signalised pedestrian crossing

Cycling 3.3.7 There are a wide range of cycling opportunities local to the site, particularly along the A4 and roads leading off it. 3.3.8 On inspection there are no obstacles to accessing the site on a bike such that cycling to the site can be considered to be a viable option. 3.3.9 Plate D below shows the cycle route adjacent to the pelican crossing.

3.4 Public Transport 3.4.1 Within 400m of the application site there are high quality bus stops on the A4. The primary routes with frequent services that can be accessed from these stops include routes X31 and X34. 3.4.2 East and west bound bus stops are shown in Plate E below, with bus mapping and timetables are attached as Appendix B. 3.4.3 This level of service ensures that the use of bus travel to as part of a journey including visiting the application site is a viable option.

4.0 TRAVEL PLAN APPROACH

4.1 Introduction 4.1.1 This Travel Plan has been prepared as a concise document to present the Company’s commitment to managing multimodal access to its development. 4.1.2 Aldi are also committed to reducing reliance on the private car for journeys to work and maximising the potential and opportunities for employees to travel by sustainable modes. In this regard, this Travel Plan has been developed with reference to both local and national guidance. 4.1.3 This Plan presents a long term strategy for reducing dependence of staff on travel by private car and in this regard this Travel Plan itself will be an ever evolving document, amended as required once the referred staff travel surveys have been completed. The Plan will then naturally evolve and change as subsequent staff surveys are undertaken.

4.2 Approach 4.2.1 In order for a Travel Plan to be successful, it must influence behaviour as opposed to dictate a specific modal use. In order for this to be achieved, the Plan must successfully alter an individual’s perception in the following ways:

 the Individual must be able to appreciate that a change in behaviour will benefit them;

 he/ she is enabled to change his/her behaviour; and

 An individual must be encouraged to take action, by experimenting with transport modes. 4.2.2 Measures should focus on the areas that need most development in order to ensure that all of the above factors are covered. A Travel Plan should therefore consider as a minimum the following three points:

 Raise awareness of the Travel Plan and its benefits, the sustainable transport infrastructure and incentives to encourage use;

 Improve accessibility and to discourage single occupancy vehicle use as a primary mode of travel; and

 Measures should be developed and provided to encourage a behavioural shift and adoption of sustainable modes of transport.

Aldi, Travel Plan 12

5.0 OBJECTIVES, BENEFITS AND TARGETS

5.1 Objectives 5.1.1 The primary purpose of this Travel Plan is to determine a realistic range of actions to encourage the use of more sustainable modes of transport to travel to and from the site. The principle objectives of the Travel Plan are therefore:

 To encourage staff to use more sustainable modes of transport to travel to and from the site;

 To improve awareness of transport issues and reduce the impact of traffic on the local environment;

 To minimise the proportion of private car journeys to and from the proposed development;

 To increase the proportion of journeys to and from the proposed development by sustainable modes of transport such as walking, cycling and public transport; and

 To minimise the number of single occupancy car trips to and from the proposed development.

5.2 Benefits 5.2.1 This Travel Plan will assist both staff and customers in making an informed decision on how they travel to and from the site and encourage them to use sustainable transport. This will reduce reliance on single occupancy car travel and encourage a reduction in car trips generated by the development. 5.2.2 Other benefits of the Travel Plan may include:

 Reduction in congestion and traffic related pollution;

 Increase in employee attendance levels; and

 A healthier work force.

5.3 Targets 5.3.1 Table 5.2 below presents expected and proposed mode share targets. Mode share targets should, however, be re-entered following the results of the first survey and based on this information, future achievable ‘SMART’ targets to be devised in liaison with the Local Authority. Nevertheless, based on collected staff travel data from other Aldi stores the following indicative minimum targets are proposed in the first instance (see Table 5.2 below). 5.3.2 It should be noted that the following table provides percentage splits and is based on up to 50 staff and reflects the output from recent surveys at other sites. Future targets and reviews have to be carefully considered against the limited staff numbers to ensure unrealistic aspirations do not unnecessarily burden the TP initiatives.

Mode of Travel Expected Initial 2 year Modal Split 5 Year Modal Split Modal Split Target Target

Car Driver 83% 75% 68%

Car Passenger 10% 12% 14%

Walk 3% 5% 6%

Cycle 2% 5% 6%

Bus 2% 3% 5%

Motorcycle 0% 0% 1%

Table 5.2 – Indicative Staff Mode Share Targets

6.0 MEASURES AND ACTIONS

6.1 Background 6.1.1 A wide range of measures and actions will be used to encourage car-sharing, public transport use, cycling and walking in accordance with national and local policies. 6.1.2 Firstly, prior to opening Entran Ltd be appointed as the Travel Plan Co-ordinator, Entran Contact details: Robert Williams, 7 Greenway Farm, Bath Road, Wick, Bristol, BS30 5RL, Tel: 0117 937 4077 6.1.3 At this point all partners to the Travel Plan will be advised of the appointment. 6.1.4 Entran will, on all matters, liaise with Aldi’s Property Director Simon Glover, who will ensure that internally all measures are implemented. If any internal matters arise with the Travel Plan, the communication process will be reversed.

6.2 Measures and Actions 6.2.1 The Travel Plan Co-ordinator will ensure that the Travel Plan is implemented; operating efficiently and that all the measures for encouraging sustainable travel are in place. Responsibilities include:

 Promoting and encouraging travel modes other than the car, including providing information to staff via a notice board in the staff room, which will be checked every three months;

 Ensuring that all information relating to public transport, cycling, walking and car sharing is displayed on staff notice boards and is kept accurate and up to date;

 Ensuring that all information relating to public transport, cycling, walking are available to customers via availability of bus timetables etc, on the packing shelf at the front of the store and that the provided information is kept accurate and up to date;

 Promoting car sharing;

 Identify employee travel habits through staff surveys;

 Monitoring and reviewing the Travel Plan; and

 Ensuring the needs of the less mobile is incorporated in the Plan. 6.2.2 The measures developed on site shall be largely based on the outcomes of the initial travel survey. Some measures are essential in meeting with current standards, for example the quantity of cycle and car parking provision, other measures will be unique to the site. As such the following sections are intended to give an overview of the potential measures that could be implemented by the Travel Plan Co-ordinator if the travel survey highlights them as being appropriate.

6.3 TP Measures 6.3.1 Due to the changing characteristics of the development over time it would be ineffective for the TP to specify TP measures or funding for measures that may not be required, Nevertheless, funding will be made available for the implementation of measures should the need arise through the monitoring process. In this regard therefore, required measures must be determined by reference to travel surveys and importantly, an understanding of the factors that would motivate staff to alter their travel behaviour. The programme of surveys and monitoring therefore not only needs to identify travel behaviour but also attitudes to travel and key motivators for change. 6.3.2 Notwithstanding this, the TP’s measures are divided into sub-categories:

 Hard measures – these are infrastructure provision or improvements;

Aldi, Travel Plan 15

 Soft measures – these are management measure, incentives, marketing initiatives etc;

 Secured measures – these are measures that will be implemented; and

 Failsafe measures – these are an ‘arsenal’ of measures available to the TP Coordinator to be chosen according to survey feedback so that resources can be targeted towards those measures found to be most effective. 6.3.3 The following tables describe both secure and failsafe measures per mode. Secure measures are those that will be adopted prior to recruitment of staff or as part of the build process, with the failsafe measures being those that could be introduced should the need arise. 6.3.4 In addition, all employees will receive details of the TP upon commencement of employment and a copy of the TP will be kept in the staff room.

 Comprehensive walking and cycling route maps linking the site to local infrastructure including shops, residential areas, train station and bus station

 Bus maps and timetables as well as leaflets describing the health benefits of cycling and walking including cycle maps if applicable;

 Contact details of the Travel Plan Co-ordinator for the site; and

 Useful resources to enable people to plan their own journeys such as: - www.carsharewiltshire.com - https://www.connectingwiltshire.co.uk

7.0 MONITORING

7.1 Monitoring Strategy 7.1.1 An important part of the Travel Plan is the continual monitoring and review of its effectiveness. It is essential that a Travel Plan is not a one-off event, but a continually evolving process. Regular monitoring and reviewing will help to gauge progress towards targets and objectives, and, if necessary, enable the Travel Plan to be refined and adapted in order to improve its progression. 7.1.2 The stages to monitoring a Travel Plan include:

 Collection of base data i.e.: soon after opening and resultant setting of travel mode targets;

 Measures implemented over a period of time are recorded;

 Collection of future data at defined point;

 Comparison of data collected; and

 Review of mode share against target and resultant implementation of new measures or setting of revised targets. 7.1.3 In terms of this Travel Plan, it is important to note that it will not be possible to collect any ‘before’ data for the site since it is currently in a different land use.

7.2 Survey of Employee Travel Patterns 7.2.1 The effectiveness of the Travel Plan will need to be monitored and reviewed in partnership with the local authority. This review process will identify the most effective measures and key motivators influencing people’s travel choices. The schedule of monitoring and review will be as follows:

Survey Date Review / Reports

1. 2 months after first  Within 1 month of survey review survey findings and occupation report to local authority. Submit Final Travel Plan to WC for approval

 Feedback findings to staff within 1 month of local authority review

 Senior staff member to implement review outcomes and Travel Plan within 2 months of being approved

2. 1 year after first  Identify actions from Review 1 occupation  Review survey 2 findings and report to local authority within 1 month of survey and update Travel Plan

 Feedback findings to staff within 1 month of local authority review

 Senior staff member to implement review outcomes prior to Survey 3.

3. 2 and 5 and years after  Identify actions from Review 2 first occupation  Review survey 3 findings and report to local authority within 1 month of survey and update Travel Plan

 Feedback findings to staff within 1 month of local authority review

 Senior staff member to implement review outcomes. Table 7.1 – Schedule of monitoring and review

Aldi, Travel Plan 18

7.2.2 The communication strategy, monitoring and review process contained within this document will instil a culture of sustainable travel within the company and focus resources on the methods most effective in reducing single car occupancy. 7.2.3 A sample staff questionnaire is included as Appendix C.

7.3 Partnership Arrangement 7.3.1 As discussed, the Travel Plan will be monitored to ensure that the aims and objectives are met and that the development accords with the terms of the planning permission. 7.3.2 The Local Authority are an important partner in the Travel Plan process. However, it is important that the relationship between the site occupiers and the Councils is a genuine partnership arrangement and not seen by any party as being a matter of enforcement or penalties. With this in mind all objectives or targets must be agreed by all parties as being:

 challenging;

 realistic;

 measurable; and

 achievable. 7.3.3 If the objectives do not meet all these requirements they will be ineffective. 7.3.4 The Travel Plan will be a continuously evolving ‘live’ document. It may therefore be necessary to amend mode share baselines and targets depending on the result of the on-going surveys. These evolving changes should be communicated to and agreed with the Council. 7.3.5 If targets or objectives are not met it may be decided following discussions between the Travel Plan Co-ordinator and the Council that measures could be modified or alternative measures implemented.
