Table 1-1: General ADMS-Roads model conditions Variables ADMS-Roads model inputs Emissions NOX, PM10 Emission factors IAN 185-13 Speed Band Emission Factors v2.3 Surface Roughness at source 0.5m Minimum Monin-Obukhov length for stable 10m conditions Meteorological data Hourly sequential data from Luton Airport in 2015 Receptors Selected representative receptors only. Identified from a combination of OS Mastermap and Addressbase data Model Output Road contributions to long term annual mean NOX and PM10 concentrations Additional input file Fac file for time varying emissions A latitude of 52 degrees was input to the site data properties. This determines times of sunrise and sunset for each day throughout the year, which in turn affects stability calculations. A surface roughness coefficient of 0.5m (representative of parkland and open suburbia) was applied across the study area. The surface roughness is important in the approximation of turbulent conditions within the atmospheric boundary layer and thus in the estimation of pollutant concentrations at receptors. Minimum Monin-Obukhov length (to reasonably limit the occurrence of very stable atmospheric conditions) was defined as 10m at both the meteorological site and the dispersion site (representative of small urban areas). This parameter limits the occurrence of very stable boundary layer conditions (i.e. when the air is still) to a degree that is appropriate to the general land-use. In general, the potential for very stable conditions is lowest in large urban areas where the ‘heat island’ effect promoting turbulent motion in the boundary layer is strongest. Planning Inspectorate Scheme Ref: TR010044 1 Application Document Ref: TR010044/APP/6.3 A428 Black Cat to Caxton Gibbet improvements Environmental Statement Appendix 5.3: Air quality assessment methodology Emissions rates The emission rates used in the local air quality modelling were derived from the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB) LA 105 (Ref 2). In accordance with LA 105 the competent experts for traffic applied the following procedure: a. Analysis of the performance of modelled traffic speeds on individual road links compared against observed speeds on the same road links. b. Adjustment, where required, of modelled traffic speeds on individual road links to better reflect observed speeds; this is known as the ‘speed pivoting’ approach. c. Assignment of individual road links into a speed-banding category by road type. d. Manual adjustment, where required, of assigned speed band where changes in speed did not justify a change in speed band (e.g. speed changes of less than 5kph) or where a speed band change was considered by the traffic modellers to not reflect a valid Scheme impact. Hourly emission rates were then calculated as follows: a. Weekday morning peak (AM), inter peak (IP), evening peak (PM), off peak (OP) hourly flows (in terms of light duty vehicles (LDV) and heavy-duty vehicles (HDV)) and associated speed band for each road link were obtained from the traffic model for each period. b. The competent expert for traffic confirmed which hours the relevant traffic model periods apply to, as follows: i. AM: 07:00 – 10:00 (3 hours). ii. IP: 10:00 – 16:00 (6 hours). iii. PM: 16:00 – 19:00 (3 hours). iv. OP: 19:00 – 07:00 (12 hours). c. Emission rates for each time period were calculated using the using the traffic flow, %HDV, speed band and road type using the “IAN 185-13 Speed Band Emission Factors v2.3” spreadsheet tool. d. Emissions for each time period were input into the ADMS-Roads model and a “fac” file used to specify which hourly emission rate should be applied for each hour of the day. Meteorological data Hourly sequential meteorological data for 2015 for the Luton Airport meteorological station were used (Ref 2). The parameters required by the model included: date, time, wind direction (angle wind blowing from), wind speed (at 10m above ground level), surface air temperature (degrees Celsius), and cloud cover (oktas – or eighths of sky covered). Summary data for the site is presented in Table 1-2 and the wind rose for Luton Airport is presented below in Plate 1-1), indicating that the dominant wind direction for 2015 was from the southwest.

  • Election of Mayor for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority
    Election of Mayor for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority Thursday 6th May 72021 The Candidates - What they say - How to vote Chooseyourmayor.org INTRODUCTION On Thursday 6 May 2021 electors across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough will have the opportunity to vote for the person they want to be Mayor for the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority. An elected Mayor is different from a traditional, ceremonial Mayor or a Council Leader. The Mayor is elected by the people, whereas ceremonial Mayors and Council Leaders are elected by fellow Councillors. The Mayor will be responsible for leading the Combined Authority, building investor confidence and directing new resources to economic priorities. He or she will ensure a quicker and more effective response to local issues, ensure more targeted use of funding, and develop new financial mechanisms to encourage new private sector investment. They will be a powerful voice for the Combined Authority, locally, nationally and internationally. This booklet must be sent to you as an individual elector by law. It includes information about the election and has in it an election address from each of the Mayoral candidates who wish to be included. You will also find information on how to fill in your ballot paper, how the result is calculated, together with answers to some frequently asked questions. John Hill Combined Authority Returning Officer THE MAYORAL CANDIDATES Nik Johnson Labour and Co-Operative Party James Philip Palmer The Conservative Party Candidate Aidan Thomas Van de Weyer Liberal Democrats The order in which the addresses of candidates appear in the booklet has been determined by the drawing of lots by the Combined Authority Returning Officer.

On 26 July 1985 we wrote to Bedfordshire County Council announcing our intention to undertake a review of the County under section 48{1) of the Local Government Act 1972. Copies of the letter were sent to the principal local authorities, and parishes, in Bedfordshire and in the surrounding counties of Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Northamptonshire; to the National and County Associations of Local Councils; to the Members of Parliament with constituency interests and to the headquarters of the main political parties. In addition, copies were sent to those government departments, regional health authorities, water authorities, and electricity and gas boards which might have an interest, as well as to British Telecom, the English Tourist Board, the local government press and to local television and radio stations serving the area. 2. The County Councils were requested, in co-operation as necessary with the other local authorities, to assist us in publicising the start of the review by inserting a notice for two successive weeks in local newspapers so as to give a wide coverage in the areas concerned.
