Butterfly Haven, Llanteg Transport Statement

1 Introduction & Background 1.1 Acstro has been appointed by Dr. K. Caley, the applicant, to prepare a Transport Statement to support a planning application for the development of a Butterfly Haven Conservation and Eco-Tourist Attraction at The Downs, Llanteg, Pembrokeshire. A location plan is provided in Appendix 1. Appendix 1 Location Plan

1.2 Dr. Caley was formerly Research and Conservation Executive at Twycross Zoo. He is a zoologist and marine biologist, with a PhD in evolutionary ecology. As an ardent field naturalist who has interests in increasing the biodiversity awareness of the general public, he has been involved in the virtual, expert peer-reviewed, The Encyclopedia of Earth. 1.3 Dr. Caley’s intention is to create a truly unique conservation project and visitor attraction. Dr Caley has extensive experience in both research and nature conservation related to a variety of insect species. His particular interest in butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) has led to this proposed development to create a wholly new management system for looking after captive butterflies and presenting the conservation plight of pollinators. 1.4 The proposed development will showcase butterflies, moths and other insects, both indigenous and tropical, in appropriate display display areas (heated and unheated biomes, outdoor gardens), in close association with a private nature reserve, which is not part of this application, but which is an integral part of the more general conservation project. Separating species of Lepidoptera into their respective provenances will provide a habitat-based management system that has not been adopted anywhere else in the country. Furthermore, the creation of a reserve that is specifically focussed on insect conservation will provide a uniquely specialised Haven for butterflies. 1.5 Butterfly houses in the UK generally form part of a wider zoological conservation park, for a range of animal species. Rarely do they exist as independent entities and even then they include species from all over the world in one flight area, with little or no outside provision for native species, although there are some attempts to remedy this in more general terms. The conservation project that is the basis of this application is looking to provide conservation measures on-site for protecting and enhancing local pollinator communities, with a primary focus being Lepidoptera and their associated flora, whilst catering for other native species as part of the holistic management. 1.6 The Butterfly Haven at Llanteg will be one of the few devoted pollinator-specific gardens in the UK. The purpose of the tourism element of the development is to sustain the nature conservation and the management of the nature reserve. 1.7 As well as conservation of a range of important species, and providing a new and unique tourist attraction for visitors to Pembrokeshire, the attraction will also include an active education programme. Dr Caley is well equipped to ensure appropriate education provision, given his expertise in this field of nature conservation. He is also well aware of the education requirements of DEFRA’s zoo license, due to his involvement in the zoo license reassessment procedure. He is a former executive of Twycross Zoo, has extensive experience in ecology and research and was a member of the BIAZA (British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums) Research and Field Programme Committees.

1.8 The development will be built out in phases over 7-10 years with the final completed scheme providing up to 8 FTE jobs to support the local economy. Phasing of the development will allow the natural and traditional conservation of the whole site to occur as the biomes and other buildings emerge in the landscape. 1.9 The first of the purpose-built biomes and the Café / Reception will be provided within the first phase. As the scheme matures the remainder of the biomes will be completed (in phases 2, 3 and 8). Improvements to the gardens, the provision of the ponds and the and enhancement of the native habitats in terms of increasing biodiversity, will occur throughout phases 1-9. The education programme will commence from phase 1 and be improved and expanded as the development progresses to completion. Overall, the proposal will have significant benefits locally, providing a focus for the community in the immediate vicinity of the village hall, with volunteer and community associations that will aid community cohesion. 1.10 This Transport Statement sets out the transport issues relating to the proposed development. The structure of the Transport Statement has been informed by best practice advice contained within ‘Guidance for Transport Assessment (DfT 2007). 1.11 The structure of the Transport Statement is as follows: • Section 2 describes the relevant planning policy context that is relevant in terms of transport issues; • Section 3 describes the site’s location, its proximity to services and facilities and its accessibility by all forms of transport. • Section 4 describes the proposed development and its access arrangements. An estimate of the likely trip generation of the proposed development of the land is also provided. • Section 5 provides a summary and conclusion.

2 Policy Context Planning Policy Wales 10th Edition 2.1 Planning Policy Wales (PPW) sets out the land use planning policies of the Welsh Government. The primary objective of PPW is to ensure that the planning system contributes towards the delivery of sustainable development and improves the social, economic, environmental and cultural well-being of Wales. 2.2 In terms of transport related policies paragraph 4.1.1 states that “the planning system should enable people to access jobs and services through shorter, more efficient and sustainable journeys, by walking, cycling and public transport”. 2.3 Paragraph 4.1.9 states that “the planning system has a key role to play in reducing the need to travel and supporting sustainable transport, by facilitating developments which: • are sited in the right locations, where they can be easily accessed by sustainable modes of travel and without the need for a car; • are designed in a way which integrates them with existing land uses and neighbourhoods; and • make it possible for all short journeys within and beyond the development to be easily made by walking and cycling.” 2.4 PPW advocates a sustainable transport hierarchy for planning, the hierarchy being, from top to bottom: • Walking and Cycling • Public Transport • Ultra Low Emission Vehicles • Other Private Motor Vehicles 2.5 It is Welsh Government policy to require the use of a sustainable transport hierarchy in relation to new development, which prioritises walking, cycling and public transport ahead of the private motor vehicles. 2.6 The transport hierarchy recognises that Ultra Low Emission Vehicles (ULEV) also have an important role to play in the decarbonisation of transport, particularly in rural areas with limited public transport services. To this end the provision of ULEV charging points is encouraged within new developments. 2.7 PPW requires (4.1.53) that local authorities develop and adopt standards that set maximum levels of parking for broad classes of development, together with a threshold size of development above which such levels will apply. Parking standards should be applied flexibly and allow for the provision of lower levels of parking and the creation of high-quality places.

TAN18 Transportation 2.8 Planning Policy Wales Technical Advice Note 18 (TAN18) details the Welsh Government Government’s policies in terms of transportation and repeats the general principles advocated in PPW i.e. that development is encouraged in sustainable, accessible, locations that will reduce the need to travel by car. Its aim is to promote an efficient and sustainable transport system and to counter the negative impacts associated with road traffic growth, for example increased air pollution, green house gases and congestion (2.1). It sees the integration of transport and land use planning as key (2.3) in achieving the Welsh Government Governments’ sustainable development policy objectives by: • promoting travel efficient settlement patterns; • ensuring new development is located where there is good access by public transport, walking and cycling thereby minimizing the need for travel and fostering social inclusion; • managing parking provision; • ensuring that new development includes appropriate provision for pedestrians, cycling, public transport, and traffic management and parking/servicing; • encouraging the location of development near other related uses to encourage multi-purpose trips; and • ensuring that transport infrastructure necessary to serve new development allows existing transport networks to continue to perform their identified functions. 2.9 The needs of walkers and cyclists must be taken into consideration and the use of these most sustainable forms of transport encouraged in all developments (TAN18 Chapter 6). Similarly, all development should be accessible by public transport (Chapter 7). 2.10 Paragraph 4.6 advises that maximum car parking standards should be used at regional and local level as form of demand management. 2.11 In paragraph 4.7 TAN18 advises that in determining maximum car parking standards for new development regard should be given to, amongst other things: • public transport accessibility • opportunities for walking and cycling • the availability in the general area of safe public on street and off-street parking • the potential for neighbouring or mixed-use developments sharing parking spaces at different times of the day or week. 2.12 Paragraph 4.13 deals specifically with the implementation of parking within new developments. It states that maximum parking standards should not be applied so rigidly that they become minimum standards and that maximum standards should allow developers the discretion to reduce parking levels. The potential for problems associated with overspill parking is recognised and applicants when undertaking a transport assessment are advised to assess the extent of existing on street parking pressures and the impact of the new development.

Butterfly Haven, Llanteg Transport Statement

2.13 Paragraph 4.15 relates to car free development and indicates “Some car free housing development may be appropriate in locations with good walking, cycling and public transport links and in areas where parking is controlled. On-site cycle and parking provision for those with disabilities will be required if such on-street parking cannot be provided”. 2.14 In regard to site accessibility, Paragraph 4.16 indicates that “A site’s location and its relative accessibility should inform guidance on maximum standards and the potential lifestyle of occupants should be considered, both at the forward planning and development control stages”. The Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 2.15 The Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 is Welsh Government legislation aimed to support an increase in the level of walking and cycling in Wales; to encourage a shift in travel behaviour to active travel modes, and to facilitate the building of walking and cycling infrastructure. 2.16 The Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 makes it a legal requirement for local authorities in Wales to map and plan for suitable routes for active travel, and to build and improve infrastructure for walking and cycling every year. It creates new duties to consider the needs of walkers and cyclists and make better provision for them. It also requires the consideration of walking and cycling as a mode of transport and the Act focuses on the promotion of walking and cycling for purposeful journeys, rather than as a purely recreational activity. 2.17 The Act is supported by the Active Travel Action Plan Wales (2014), and many of the actions of the Active Travel Action Plan Wales document also benefit recreational or competitive walking and cycling. ‘Walking’ in the Active Travel Action Plan for Wales includes the use of wheelchairs and mobility scooters and ‘cycling’ includes the use of electric bikes, but not motorcycles. Pembrokeshire County Council Local Development Plan (up to 2021) 2.18 Llanteg is classified as a Small Local Village in policy SP 12, which sets out the County’s settlement hierarchy. 2.19 General Development Policy GN1 states that development will be permitted where, amongst other non-transport considerations, it is in an accessible location, incorporates sustainable transport and accessibility principles and will not result in a detrimental impact on highway safety or in traffic exceeding the capacity of the highway network. Appropriate service infrastructure, access and parking provision must be provided.

3 Existing Conditions 3.1 The site is shown in the context of surrounding facilities and transport network in Appendix 2. Appendix 2 Site Context

Location 3.2 The site is located in Llanteg, a village that is located on the A477 trunk road approximately 20km east of Pembroke and 26km west of Carmarthen. Whitland and Narberth are approximately 9km to the north east and north west, respectively. 3.3 Llanteg’s facilities include a convenience store at the petrol filling station and a village hall. There are a number of tourist attractions in the area including Battlefield Live, some 1km to the west of the application site. 3.4 The application site lies on the north side of the A477 within a group of properties. Immediately to the west is the Llanteg Community Centre which consists of a village hall and an associated car park. Adjoining the village hall is the residential property Haven Acre. 3.5 The application site has the following boundaries:- • The southern boundary lies along the A477 and is demarcated by mature trees / hedgerow; • The eastern edge follows a field boundary which includes a number of mature trees; • The northern boundary is an arbitrary line across a field with the western limit of the application site following the curtilage of the garden of the applicant’s house, The Downs; • The western boundary is to the garden of The Downs, with some trees and hedges. Active Travel 3.6 Walking has the potential to replace short journeys of up to around 2km. 3.7 The site is accessible to walkers from the footway that runs alongside the A477 through Llanteg. 3.8 There is an extensive network of public footpaths and bridleways in and around Llanteg. There are two public footpaths that skirt the application site’s eastern and northern boundaries as shown in the extract of the County’s Definitive Map of Public Rights of Way below. 3.9 National Cycle Network Route 4 runs along the coastline, some 4km to the south of the site. The long-distance cycle route links Swansea and Fishguard and more locally can be used to access Amroth, Saundersfoot and Tenby. Public Transport Accessibility 3.10 The nearest bus stop is located near the village’s filling station, some 300m to the east of the site. It provides access to a limited 352 service that provides one daily (seven day of the week) journey in each direction between Tenby, Saundersfoot, Kilgetty and Whitland.

Butterfly Haven, Llanteg Transport Statement

3.11 Kilgetty railway station is approximately 6km to the west of the site. Services between Pembroke and Carmarthen pass approximately every 2 hours in each direction. Highway Network 3.12 The site is located to the north of, and will be indirectly accessed from, the A477 trunk road. At this location the A477 is subject to a 40mph speed limit. 3.13 The existing access arrangement is shown in Appendix 3 and Figure 1 below. Appendix 3 Existing Access

Figure 1 Existing Access

3.14 The access to The Downs from the A477 is shared with the neighbouring property, Hillcrest. The access also serves a field (part of the application site) and public right of way. 3.15 The shared access provides a 6m wide carriageway with footways on both sides. The bellmouth of the junction with the A477 is formed with 8m radii. To the east if the junction the required 4.5m (Y-distance) x 120m (X-distance) visibility splays are available. To the west the boundary of the Village Hall restricts the X-distance to 2.4m, from which the Y-distance of 120m is available. As part of the development the available visibility in this direction will be improved to provide the required 4.5m x 120m splay.

Butterfly Haven, Llanteg Transport Statement

3.16 The geometry of this shared access accords with the minimum requirements of Design Manual for Roads and Bridges TD41/951 Type 3 layout, which is suitable to accommodate up to 500 daily vehicle movements. A right-turn lane would normally be required if daily traffic using the access exceeds 500 vehicle movements2. 3.17 The Village Hall is located immediately to the west of the shared (Downs/Hillcrest) access. There is an access to the Village Hall’s car park located some 13m (measured centreline to centreline) to the west of the shared access. A second access to the car park is located some 55m to the west of the shared (Downs/Hillcrest) access. As part of the development the access arrangements for the Village Hall will be rationalised with both existing accesses being closed and replaced by a single, centrally located access. This is described in more detail in the following chapter. 3.18 A review of the safety record of the A477 in the vicinity of the site has been undertaken. The Figure below show the location and severity of injury accidents recorded over the five-year period 2013 to 217 inclusive.

Figure 2 Injury Accident Record Location & Severity – 2013 – 2017 Source: Crashmap.co.uk 3.19 There are no accidents recorded in the vicinity of the Village Hall or the shared (Downs/Hillcrest) access. 3.20 There is one slight severity accident recorded some 200m to the east of the application site. This occurred on 29th September 2015 when a motorcyclist was injured in a collision with a van. This is an isolated accident and the absence of others at this location suggests that there are no significant safety issues in terms of the highway’s layout.

3.21 Some 200m to the west there are two slight severity accidents located near the Tenby Tourers access. These occurred in September 2015 and August 2017. The speed limit at this location is 50mph and therefore the nature of the highway is different to that of the A477 in the vicinity of the application site. These accidents are considered to be too far removed from the application site to have any significant bearing on assessing the suitability of the proposed development.

4 Proposed Development 4.1 The proposal is the creation of The Butterfly Haven. This will be a conservation-led development and Eco-tourism attraction. 4.2 The site will accommodate tropical biomes, a Café / Reception building, Education Centre, Birdhouses, ponds, landscaping, and associated access and car parking. 4.3 It is important to stress that the café will be for the use of visitors to the attraction and not open to passing trade/traffic. 4.4 The proposed development will showcase butterflies, moths and other insects, both indigenous and tropical, in appropriate display habitats (heated biomes, outdoor gardens and a native reserve complex). Separating species of Lepidoptera into their respective provenances will provide a habitat-based management system that has not been adopted anywhere else in the country. Furthermore, the creation of a reserve that is specifically focussed on insect conservation will provide a uniquely specialised Haven for butterflies. 4.5 The Butterfly Haven at Llanteg will be one of the few devoted pollinator-specific gardens in the UK. The purpose of the tourism element of the development is to sustain the nature conservation and the management of the nature reserve. 4.6 As well as conservation of a range of important species, and providing a new and unique tourist attraction for visitors to Pembrokeshire, the attraction will also include an active education programme. 4.7 The development will be built out in phases over 7-10 years with the final completed scheme providing up to 8 FTE jobs to support the local economy. Phasing of the development will allow the natural and traditional conservation of the whole site to occur as the biomes and other buildings emerge in the landscape. 4.8 Upon completion of all phases of the development the business plan for the proposed development targets a final annual visitor number of around 25,000. 4.9 Phases 1 to 9 of the development will see the establishment and development of the gardens, the provision of ponds and enhancement to the natural biodiversity of the site through general conservation-based management, including the use of traditional techniques, examining and implementing potential reintroductions (where able) and a conscious focus of the project as a whole as a pollinator diversity hub for the local area. 4.10 The education programme will commence from phase 1 and be improved and expanded as the development progresses to completion. Overall, the proposal will have significant benefits locally, providing a focus for the community in the immediate vicinity of the village hall, with volunteer and community associations that will aid community cohesion. 4.11 The car park will provide space for 43 general use spaces for staff and visitors and a further four spaces for those with disabilities. Provision has also been made for the parking of two mini-buses. Access 4.12 The proposed access arrangement is shown in Appendix 4. Appendix 4 Proposed Access

4.13 The site will be accessed from the shared access that currently serves The Downs and Hillcrest.

acstro 10

Butterfly Haven, Llanteg Transport Statement

4.14 The existing geometry of the junction between the shared access and the A477 is considered to be suitable to serve the proposed development. The junction geometry is adequate to accommodate free flowing two-way traffic of the volume that is expected from the development (described in the following section). The development’s traffic will comprise of light vehicles with the largest vehicles expected to be mini-busses transporting small groups of people and occasional delivery lorries. The Butterfly Haven will not be marketed as a destination for coach trips. 4.15 Agreement has been reached between the applicant and the Village Hall / Community Council to make changes to the Village Hall’s car park. The existing accesses to the car park, including the access immediately adjacent to the Downs/Hillcrest shared access will be permanently stopped up and a new access to the car park provided at a more central location. This results in a reduction in the number of access points on this section of the A477 and increased separation between the car park access and the Downs / Hillcrest shared access. In addition, the front boundary of the car park will be re-aligned to provide 4.5m x 120m visibility to the west from the Downs/Hillcrest shared access. Trip Generation 4.16 There are no comparable sites available within the TRICS trip rate database from which empirical evidence of trip generation for this type of development. The following assessment of the likely peak season trip generation of the proposed development has therefore been undertaken by examining the business plan for the project. 4.17 Dr. Caley has undertaken considerable research into similar attractions in South West Wales to gain an understanding of likely visitor numbers. These are presented in the table below.

Visitor Attraction Numbers per Comments annum (Date) Targeting increase to 25,000 through ‘uniqueness’ (i.e. Grub (Beynon’s) Bug Farm (St Currently Kitchen) and proximity to the David’s), Pembs 12,000 (2016) planned cruise ship strategy at Fishguard. Felinwynt Rainforest (now closed)(<1 acre)(2015), 20,000 (2015) Ceredigion: Magic of Life Butterfly House 10,000 Close to a major road into (Water Station, Devil’s (2009/2010) Aberystwyth Bridge)(2003) (<1 acre),

Ceredigion: Table 1 Annual Visitor Numbers for Similar Attractions

4.18 Based on the evidence of visitor numbers to these other attractions the applicant’s business plan targets attracting 25,000 visitors per annum.

acstro 11

Butterfly Haven, Llanteg Transport Statement

4.19 Assuming that this number is reached then it is possible to estimate the daily vehicle trip generation. The estimate has been based on the seasonality of tourist visitor trips (data obtained from Visit Wales), which suggests that 18.4% of annual visits will occur in August. On this basis, and an assumption that average car occupancy will be 2 to 3 visitors per car, it is calculated that visitors to the development will generate 139 to 209 daily vehicle movements during the peak season (August)

Table 2 Visitor Daily Vehicle Trip Generation Estimate

4.20 It is considered that the assessment outlined above is robust. During the school holiday period it is reasonable to expect that visiting family groups will increase the average car occupancy and therefore the estimate of 209 daily movements (based on an average car occupancy of 2 people) is likely to be an over-estimate. 4.21 In addition to the visitor generated traffic there will be traffic generated by staff and deliveries. Once fully open it is anticipated that the development will generate employment for up to 8 (full time equivalent) staff. On this basis it is considered reasonable to estimate that staff and deliveries might generate no more than a further 30 daily vehicle movements. 4.22 In total therefore it is estimated that the development will, at peak times, generate up to around 240 daily vehicle movements. This is comfortably below the 500 movements per day threshold that would trigger the need for a right-turn lane.

5 Summary & Conclusion 5.1 The proposal is the creation of The Butterfly Haven. This will be a conservation-led development and Eco-tourism attraction. The site will accommodate tropical biomes, a Café / Reception building, Education Centre, Birdhouses, ponds, landscaping, and associated access and car parking. 5.2 This Transport Statement has demonstrated that: • The application site’s location is closely related to Llanteg’s existing settlement and the facilities that it provides; • The site is accessible to pedestrians and cyclists and is well connected to the existing footway and cycle network. • The site is accessed from the A477 trunk road by a good quality junction that currently provides shared access to The Downs and Hillcrest. • Visibility to the east from the junction is in accordance with current design standards. Visibility to the west is currently restricted by the boundary of the neighbouring Village Hall. As part of the development the boundary of the Village Hall will be adjusted in order that visibility in this direction meets the design standard requirement of 4.5m x 120m. • At present one of the Village Hall’s two accesses is located immediately adjacent to the junction that serves The Downs / Hillcrest. As part of the development both existing Village Hall accesses will be stopped up and replaced by a new, centrally located access. This improves highway conditions by reducing the number of access points, and therefore reducing the potential points of conflict. The proposed amendment to the Village Hall’s access arrangement increases the separation between the remaining access points and by doing so reduces potential conflict between users of the accesses. These improvements will ensure that users of the development will have safe access to and from the A477 and will also benefit existing users of The Downs / Hillcrest junction, users of the Village Hall. • The likely visitor numbers to the attraction, 25,000 visitors per annum, have been arrived at by researching similar attractions in South West Wales. It is estimated that during the peak holiday period this would result in up to 240 daily vehicle movements. This is within the capacity of the existing A477 junction. 5.3 As such it is considered that the application site meets planning policy requirements in terms of being in an appropriate location that is safely accessible by all forms of transport and that the impacts of the development on the continued operation and safety of the surrounding highway network would be acceptable. 5.4 It is concluded therefore that there are no transport related issues that should prevent the proposed development of this land.
