I can see no recommendations for the reduction in air pollution and the management of AQMA.
I can see no recommendations for the reduction in air pollution and the management of AQMA. Contrary to bland statements I can only see increases in air pollution and movement of the problem from, for example, the Stockbridge roundabout to the proposed Apuldram roundabout and the proposed link road. That coupled with the extra journey miles with no right turns at Stockbridge and Whyke will only increase the pollution problem not reduce it. The only solution is to endorse the mitigated Northern route and separation of through and local traffic which will remove the AQMAs. Nothing in this plan will solve this problem as it currently stands. Unless this is adequately addressed in future iterations of the plan I will wish to raise this with the examiner at the appropriate juncture.
