This Transport Assessment has been prepared in support of a full planning application for development of residential dwellings. 2. There would be a net increase in daily two-way flows from the proposed land use over the existing land use. 3. The site will accessible to pedestrians using the existing infrastructure on Humberstone Lane. 4. The site is accessible to cycle based travel, with good opportunities for cycle journeys in place of journeys by private car. 5. Public transport provision consists of nine bus services which regularly stop at the nearby bus stops on Humberstone Lane and nearby local roads. The pedestrian infrastructure adjacent to the site links to the nearest stop located on Humberstone Lane approximately 150 metres south east of the site. 6. The proposed development would generate increased levels of pedestrian trips from residents and visitors, additional cycle trips from residents and additional public transport users. The development is well located to take advantage of the existing bus services running in the vicinity of the site entrance and train services available from Syston Station, located approximately 3.7 km to the north east of the site while the surrounding infrastructure is considered of good quality. www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 CONTENTS Revision History EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.0 INTRODUCTION 2.0 EXISTING SITUATION 3.0 PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 4.0 VEHICULAR TRIP GENERATION 5.0 OPPORTUNITIES FOR SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL 6.0 ACCESS JUNCTION 7.0 CONCLUSIONS FIGURES Figure 1 Site Location Plan Figure 2 Proposed Site Layout Figure 3 Pedestrian Catchment Figure 4 Public Rights of Way Figure 5 Cycle Catchment Figure 6 Sustrans Cycle Route Map Extract Figure 7 Bus Stops Near the Site APPENDICES Appendix A ATC Survey Results Appendix B Local Bus Service Information Appendix C Development Masterplan Appendix D Drawing No. FW1628-H-800 Rev A3 Refuse Vehicle Tracking Appendix E TRICS Output www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 Appendix F Drawing No. FW1628-H-801 Rev A3 Access Junction Layout Appendix G Access Junction Assessment Output www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1. Farrow Walsh Consulting has been engaged by Astill Planning to produce a Transport Statement in support of a proposed residential development on land adjacent to Humberstone Lane, Thurmaston, Leicestershire, LE4 8HN. 1.2. The Transport Statement (TS) report has been produced to accompany a full planning application and the report has been informed by the guidance contained within the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) - Travel plans, transport assessments and statements in decision-taking, updated in February 2019. 1.3. Leicestershire County Council (LCC) has been contacted in order to agree the scope of the Transport Statement. 1.4. This TS will evaluate a range of highway factors pertaining to the development and its effect on the surrounding highway network and in particular the impact the development will have on surrounding junctions. 1.5. This report provides an appraisal of the proposed development site’s accessibility to local amenities and to sustainable transport modes in the local area. A summary of these facilities is provided, and any potential improvements are discussed. 1.6. The report will consider trip generation from the proposed land use and, along with proposals to monitor the chosen method of travel to and from the site, where appropriate recommend measures to further encourage sustainable travel. 1.7. This report considers the core principles and objectives of the NPPF, where the development should positively contribute to: • encouraging sustainable travel; • lessening traffic generation and its detrimental impacts; www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 • reducing carbon emissions and climate impacts; • creating accessible, connected, inclusive communities; • improving health outcomes and quality of life; • improving road safety; and • reducing the need for new development to increase existing road capacity or provide new roads. www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 2.0 EXISTING SITUATION Site Location 2.1 The proposed development site is located in Thurmaston, on the northern outskirts of Leicester City. 2.2 Humberstone Lane is situated to the north of the site, running in an east – west direction. At its western end, it forms a signalised junction with the A607 Newark Road. To the south, this road provides a direct link to Leicester City Centre. To the northeast, it provides links to Queniborough, East Goscote, Rearsby, Brooksby and Frisby-on-the-Wreake. At its southern end, Humberstone Lane connects with the A563 Ring Road via a roundabout. Also, adjacent to the A563, Humberstone Lane connects with Barkbythorpe Road which provides links to Barkbythorpe, Barkby and Queniborough. 2.3 The site location is indicated in Figure 1 below. Figure 1 - Site Location plan www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 Site Description 2.4 The site is located in Thurmaston, approximately 5km north of Leicester City Centre and is centred on National Grid reference 461581, 308486. The site has an area of 0.788 hectares. 2.5 The application site is currently occupied by a bodybuilding and auto refurbishing plant along with a printing workshop. The site boundaries comprise the following: • North – Humberstone Lane, with residential properties on the opposite side of the carriageway. • West – Industrial. • South – Industrial. • East – Railway line, with residential development on opposite side. 2.6 Land use in the vicinity of the site is a mixture of residential and industrial. 2.7 Access to the proposed development will be achieved via the modification of the existing access leading onto Humberstone Lane. This road will form a priority junction with Humberstone Lane. A proposed site layout is indicated in Figure 2 below. www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 Figure 2 - Proposed Site Layout Existing Highway Network Humberstone Lane 2.8 Humberstone Lane is a local distributor road which provides a route through Thurmaston between the A607 Newark Road (to the west) and Barkbythorpe Road (to the south east). 2.9 The carriageway in the vicinity of the site has a width of approximately 5m. Footways are present on both sides of the carriageway with a width of 1.8m. Street lighting is also present on both sides of the carriageway. 2.10 A speed limit of 30 mph is present on Humberstone Lane in the vicinity of the site. 2.11 In order to ascertain the speeds of traffic along Humberstone Lane in the vicinity of the site, ATC surveys were carried out by MHC Traffic on Humberstone Lane for a period of seven days commencing Monday 3rd September 2018. Counters were positioned at a point close to the www.farrowwalsh.com Farrow Walsh Consulting Limited Land off Humberstone Lane Thurmaston LE4 8HN Transport Statement September 2020 FW1628 -TS- 001 v5 position of the proposed development access. The results of the ATC survey are provided as Appendix A. 2.12 For Humberstone Lane, the observed 7-day northbound 85th percentile speed was 31.9 mph. The observed 7-day southbound 85th percentile speed for this carriageway was 34.2 mph. Existing Pedestrian Facilities 2.13 According to the National Travel Survey (2019), walking constitutes 26% of all journeys made in a year on a national scale. Furthermore, of all trips made which were less than one mile (1.6 km) during 2019, 4 out of 5 (80%) were walking trips. 2.14 NPPF states that “walking is the most important mode of travel at the local level and offers the greatest potential to replace short car trips, particularly those under 2 kilometres”. The distances in the IHT ‘Guidelines for Providing for Journeys on Foot’ document describe acceptable walking distances for pedestrians without mobility impairment. They suggest that, for commuting, up to 500 metres is the desirable walking distance, up to 1000 metres is an acceptable walking distance, and up to 1500 metres is the preferred maximum walking distance while 2000 metres is the threshold distance. 2.15 The Manual for Streets (MfS) states that “walkable neighbourhoods” have a range of facilities within 800m. However, this distance is not regarded as the upper limit for walking journeys, and MfS uses the criterion that walking offers the greatest potential to replace short car trips, particularly those under 2km. This figure was derived from guidance first published in PPG13. Although this document has now been withdrawn, there is no empirical evidence to suggest that this is not still an appropriate measurement. MfS also states that the propensity to walk is influenced not only by distance, but also the quality of the walking experience, as influenced by the overall environment, vehicular traffic flows/speeds etc.

  • Roman Roads in Britain
    ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN c < t < r c ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN BY THE LATE THOMAS CODRINGTON M, INST.C. E., F. G S. fFITH LARGE CHART OF THE ROMAN ROADS AND SMALL MAPS IN THE TEXT REPRINT OF THIRD EDITION LONDON SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE NEW YORK: THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 1919 . • r r 11 'X/^i-r * ' Ci First Edition^ 1903 Second Edition, Revised, 1905 Tliird Edition, Revised, 1918 (.Reprint), 19 „ ,, 19 PREFACE The following attempt to describe the Roman roads of Britain originated in observations made in all parts of the country as opportunities presented themselves to me from time to time. On turning to other sources of information, the curious fact appeared that for a century past the litera- ture of the subject has been widely influenced by the spurious Itinerary attributed to Richard of Cirencester. Though that was long ago shown to be a forgery, statements derived from it, and suppositions founded upon them, are continually repeated, casting suspicion sometimes unde- served on accounts which prove to be otherwise accurate. A wide publicity, and some semblance of authority, have been given to imaginary roads and stations by the new Ordnance maps. Those who early in the last century, under the influence of the new Itinerary, traced the Roman roads, unfortunately left but scanty accounts of the remains which came under their notice, many of which have since been destroyed or covered up in the making of modern roads; and with the evidence now available few Roman roads can be traced continuously. The gaps can often be filled with reasonable certainty, but more often the precise course is doubtful, and the entire course of some roads connecting known stations of the Itinerary of Antonine can only be guessed at.

We bought a property in Syston as Syston is where we wanted to live. If we had wanted to live in thurmaston we would have done so and also would have got a property in that area cheaper. With this change if will affect my family expenditure due to insurance payments etc. Please take note in looking at the current thurmaston area in making it better and having it being busier with the additional 5000 homes being built soon. This is unfair on residents and the change doesn't need to take place.
