Monitoring of Transportation Issues

The monitoring section will cover three main themes:

traffic flow
off-site car parking
public transport

Traffic Flow
It is proposed that certain criteria will be set down that will define when action is considered necessary under this heading. Under each point, problems will be recognised as occurring and requiring action if they have been identified on more than an agreed number of occasions over a period of time. Whilst the Developers does not anticipate such events arising, the following monitoring criteria tests are suggested.

Key test criteria:

Queues should not extend back to the slip roads to the A180(T) junction
Queues should not extend back to the B1210 junction
Queues should not extend back to the A1136 at the time of kick-off

Methods for improvement and responsibility:

Primarily, this will focus on enhanced management within the development site. Typically, this might mean more stewards, revised strategy for parking distribution, enhanced signage, better circulation (use of one-way aisles, roadmarkings etc)
Better external highway signage [The Football Club]
Localised highway improvements if minor geometrical defects are detected [The Developer]
A review of the car park utilisation level to ensure it is optimised. This review might extend to alterations in the pricing strategy, if this is required [The Football Club]

Off Site Parking

The primary areas of concern will be the protection of residential amenity and the avoidance of road safety problems.

Key test criteria:

No parking on primary route network
No parking on junctions in hazardous positions
No increase of 5% or more in the level of on street parking identified in the Off-Site Parking Study on the day of any Programmed Football Event unless it can be shown that such increase is not attributable to that Programmed Football Event
Problems arising from increased on street parking (as identified by the Council the Joint Working Party and the Liaison Group) on streets within 2 miles of the Stadium and which are attributable to Programmed Football Events
Assessment of the on-site car park to check that full utilisation is achieved and that parking is not being needlessly displace from within the development.

Methods for Improvement:

Increased road signage [The Developer]
Revised on-street parking regulation orders [The Developer]
Provision of enhanced parking enforcement including vehicle towing [The Football Club]
Liaison with resident groups to ensure adequate regulation of controlled parking zone
Extension of controlled parking zone
Review on-site parking pricing and management policy [The Football Club]

Public Transport

A significant package of bus enhancements is proposed to support the development. However, it is recognised that some variations and refinements will be necessary to reflect customer preferences once the system is in operation.

Key test criteria:

No residual queues of passengers waiting at pick-up points when services stop running at kick-off time
No serious delays for passengers waiting to catch shuttle services prior to matches (30 minutes or more)
No adverse reaction from passengers to waiting times at the end of matches
No residue of supporters remaining within the development when services stop running after games.

Methods for Improvement:

Review the allocation of service destinations to most efficiently serve the customer catchment [The Football Club/Stagecoach]
Initiation of travel working party to examine where enhancements might be required on bus routes to/from the development [The Football Club]
Travel survey of supporter's habits and home destinations to improve efficiency of bus services [The Football Club]
Diversion of existing regular routes to serve the development on match days, cost to be borne by GTFC [The Football Club/Stagecoach]

Joint Working Party

To best meet the objectives of the monitoring task, it is proposed that a joint working party be set up. This will be convened prior to the development opening and sit at regular intervals thereafter to manage the monitoring process. Membership might involve additional parties, as required and identified by core members, but the following will be invited to form the core membership:

NELC
HA
GTFC
Stagecoach Grimsby Cleethorpes
Police
Chiltern
Hackney Carriage Association
Members of the Local Community
