Introduction
Today’s presentation will provide additional information on:– traffic flows from Covanta’s RRF;
– future forecast traffic flows on the highway;
– traffic impact and junction capacity assessments;
– environmental impact;
– construction traffic flows.
Obviously, although all this is work in progress, Covanta
remain committed to keeping the CLP fully informed
throughout this process.

Rookery South RRF Context
64 staff employed on site every day; RRF operation to work “24-7”; waste to be delivered into the site Monday to
Saturday only; anticipated 182 HGV deliveries per day for
Nominal throughput of 585,000tpa; a highly theoretical Maximum 318 HGV
deliveries per day also assessed for 645,000tpa throughput;
all HGV access via Green Lane.

Vehicle trip distribution
Covanta will commit to a Route Management Plan to ensure delivery contractor HGV compliance;
except for employees residing locally, employees will be contractually required to be routed via Green Lane;
different distributions for HGV movements and employees anticipated as:
Distribution HGVS Employees
East – from Stewartby 0% * 11%
North – along old / new A421
27 - 36% 70%
South – along old / new A421
64 - 73% 15%
West – via Wootton 0% * 4%
* except for council household waste collection in the local area

HGV movement times - context
unknown waste material sources - difficulty providing definitive information whilst contractual procurement negotiations ongoing;
Rookery South RRF delivery times need to respond to the clients’ requirements;
delivery times therefore set by planning parameters; informed and advised by the Acoustics Assessment,
showing additional delivery noise within acceptable standards (work still ongoing with the EHOs);
maintaining operational flexibility to respond to future changes - within agreed limits.
![Page 6: Rookery South Resource Recovery Facility (RRF) Community Liaison Panel Transport Presentation – 14 th December 2009 John Hopkins, Peter Brett Associates.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe71a28abf838cb5bbf/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Proposed HGV movement times
HGV movements limited to 05:00 to 23:00; HGV movements in the first hour (05:00 - 06:00) relate
to parked bulk haulage vehicles leaving empty only – up to 15 outbound trips;
first deliveries from 06:00 to 07:00 - up to 20 HGV movements;
majority of deliveries (76% - 87%) anticipated from 08:00 to 17:00;
Covanta is seeking future operational flexibility.

Environment impact of traffic flows
“Magnitude” of change in flow is identified as ‘large’, ‘medium’, ‘small’ or ‘negligible’ according to set criteria;
“Receptors” are identified early and categorised into ‘high’, ‘medium’, ‘low’ and ‘negligible’ sensitivities based on current guidance;
the two sets of information are compared to give the “significance of effect” of the traffic.
the minimum threshold for Fear and Intimidation is set by average hourly traffic flows in excess of 600 additional all vehicle trips per hour across an 18 hour day, and total 18 hour HGV flows in excess of 1,000.

ii) assuming workers coming in between 0700 – 0800 in the morning.
