PJA were commissioned by Bloor Homes to provide transport advice and reporting related to a residential development of up to 460 dwellings in the south of Evesham.

Through a series of technical notes PJA agreed the scope of the assessment with the HE and local highway authority including trip generation, trip distribution and geographical scope of assessments. The congested nature of the A46 corridor was such that queues extended through and impacted upon adjacent junctions. As such it was identified that there was a need for microsimulation modelling (Vissim). The modelling allowed the extent of the impact on the A46 to be identified and appropriate mitigation developed.

As a result of the detailed evaluation undertaken by PJA, no objections were received from either the local highway authority or HE. Permission was subsequently granted in 2018, subject to the S106.
