The Strategic Transport Assessment assesses the transport implications of the emerging Local Plan and informs the package of interventions needed to support planned growth. It is supported by technical notes on modelling, policy, validation, forecasting, trip rates and intervention mapping.
The Strategic Transport Assessment Spatial Options Assessment Technical Note sets out the methodology used to assess alternative spatial growth options for the emerging Local Plan. It explains how transport modelling, trip generation forecasting and multi-criteria assessment have been used to evaluate the transport implications of different development distributions and to inform the selection of the preferred spatial strategy for the District.
The Transport Evidence Base Comments Log records comments received from key stakeholders on the transport evidence prepared to support the emerging Cotswold Local Plan, including feedback on transport modelling, forecasting, validation, trip rates, infrastructure requirements and proposed mitigation measures. It provides a transparent record of how comments from organisations such as Gloucestershire County Council and National Highways were considered and addressed throughout the preparation of the evidence base, demonstrating the collaborative review process and helping to explain how the transport evidence evolved to support the emerging Local Plan.
