1. Background
Why are we doing this?
The aim of this work is to improve peak time access to and from Globe Business Park (GBP) by putting in place integrated measures that will enable traffic movements to operate with greater efficiency.
Congestion on this busy interchange is not only an issue for people working on GBP - but for local traffic too.
How is it being paid for?
The scheme is being funded by the Highways England Growth and Housing Fund (£1.18m) and additional money from BCC (£250k), WDC (£250k) and BTVLEP (£63k).
How have the measures been developed?
They have been developed by a steering group of partners from BCC (Highways Authority), WDC, GBP BID, LMPC and MTC.
The three measures featured in this consultation are taken from a longer list and have been chosen because they collectively deliver an integrated solution and will be relatively easy to implement. These measures are subject to detailed design and costing. This means elements may change as a result of this.
We are also using this consultation as an opportunity to ask about a related measure that could be implemented in the future to help improve peak time traffic flow further.
