Key issues, impacts and effects considered within this chapter include the following. Permanent and temporary, long term and short term (up to 12 months) physical changes to the landscape in terms of landform, land use (along the motorway corridor), fragmentation of landscape features or designated areas, vegetation changes and introduction of moving traffic. Indirect effects on the character and quality of the landscape in terms of encroachment or effects on the landscape setting of features and areas, and disturbance to sense of place and changes in the perception of the landscape through the introduction of features alien to the character of the landscape. Direct day and night time effects on the visual amenity of visual receptors, in terms of changes in views and their composition for residents and people visiting the area. Indirect effects on visual receptors in different places in terms of an altered visual perception leading to changes in public attitude, behaviour and how they value or use a place. 9.1.3 This chapter sets out the legislation and planning context and describes and evaluates the baseline landscape resource, together with views and visual amenity of visual receptors within a defined study area. The likely changes arising from the Scheme during construction and operation - day and night - and the significance of the identified effects have been assessed. The potential for likely significant effects relates to the change in land use, the loss of existing landscape features, and the visibility, scale and mass of the Scheme including fixed infrastructure and predicted traffic movement within existing views. A summary of effects is included at the end of this chapter. 9.1.4 The LVIA comprises a combination of desk study review and field work during 2015 and 2016. The work was undertaken by a core team of six landscape architects covering overlapping sections of the Scheme with the assessment of the significance of effects across the whole scheme moderated by two senior chartered Landscape Architects. The field work was undertaken predominantly when the vegetation was in leaf, during May and June 2015, to enable a greater extent of inter-visibility between the site and the study area. Further site visits were undertaken between July and November 2015 to review specific receptor impacts. Site visits were also undertaken in January 2016, when deciduous trees and plants had predominantly dropped their leaves, to take winter photographic records from key viewpoints. 9.1.5 Mitigation has been addressed as part of an iterative design and assessment process. The design approach is described in Section 9.5 of this chapter. The Environmental Masterplan is shown on Figure 2.6. This chapter should be read with Figures 9.1-9.21 in Volume 2 of this Environmental Statement (ES) and Chapter 9: Landscape and Visual Effects 9-1 March 2016 Welsh Government M4 Corridor around Newport Environmental Statement Volume 1 Appendices 9.1-9.13 in Volume 3 of this ES, which provide additional assessment information, photo sheets and photomontages of the Scheme. 9.2 Legislation and Policy Context 9.2.1 A review of topic specific published landscape policies and guidance has been undertaken to inform the LVIA and mitigation strategy. The following section of this chapter summarises the relevant legislation and policy context, with further detail outlined in Volume 3, Appendix 9.1.
