Strategic Transport Study
Strategic Transport Studies
These reports build upon the findings of the previous Joint Transport Study.
Details
We undertook three detailed transport studies to identify strategic infrastructure required to support growth in the West of England. These studies were developed following a Joint Transport Study with WECA.
This work was developed for the Local Plan, clearly setting out and evidencing how we will provide the strategic transport infrastructure to support growth in our area. The work undertaken formed part of a district-wide consultation in conjunction with the Local Plan 2016-2036 Options Consultation. Read our Local Plan
We carried out three studies:
- A4/A4174 Hicks Gate Junction Improvements
- A4 Bristol to East Keynsham Corridor Study
- South East Bristol and Whitchurch Package
The key issues we considered were:
- identification of key transport challenges and transport objectives in the areas of interest
- identification and shortlisting of potential transport options to address the challenges and objectives
- concept design and initial costing of shortlisted options
- desk-based assessment of environmental, social, and economic impacts, and value for money of the options
- initial assessment of financial and delivery case of the options
