Aerohub Business Park Newquay Cornwall AirportAerohub Enterprise Zone @ Newquay Cornwall Airport - access to the Business Park. It is therefore expected that the majority of visitors and employees will arrive by car. 15.1.26 A detailed road safety analysis has been undertaken for the surrounding highway network, particularly the A3059. This determined that the majority of accidents are unlikely to have been significantly influenced by the highway layout and are similarly unlikely to be influenced by the proposal. 15.1.27 An assessment of highway capacity has been undertaken on the junctions and roads around the proposed Business Park. The increase in vehicle trips which is expected as a result of the proposed Business Park is predicted to result in some additional delay at junctions in and around Newquay. As the proposal nears completion, the impact on junction capacity will become increasingly pronounced and other junctions will be adversely affected. 15.1.28 In order to assess the effect that the NSR would have upon journey times across Newquay, two forecast models were used to compare average journey times in the 2014 & 2030. The 2030 traffic model shows that all routes would suffer small increases in journey times, however the significance of this effect would be reduced following the completion of the Newquay Strategic Route. 15.1.29 The CEMP and the TP provide a range of measures which should minimise journeys to and from the site during construction and operation. The main aim of the travel plan is to increase the usage of bus travel, above the current 4% of commuters in the Travel to Work Area (Census, 2001). Further mitigation is outlined in the TP. Socio-economic Effects 15.1.30 The proposed Business Park will be of particular benefit to the local economy. It is estimated that once complete, in 2030, the Business Park will lead to the direct creation of 2,730 jobs and an additional 400 jobs outside the Business Park. These jobs will be particularly beneficial to an area that suffers from higher than average unemployment. Assuming the development meets its potential, it will contribute to the creation of a £141 million GVA for the Cornwall economy just from on site activities. 15.1.31 The businesses attracted to the Business Park are also expected to encourage an increase in Cornwall’s performance in skills and education, as new workers arrive, and existing workers and young people train and re-skill to gain access to the new employment opportunities. 15.1.32 No significant adverse socio-economic effects were identified, it was therefore concluded that the proposed Business Park will benefit nearby communities and the economy.
