AIR QUALITY ASSESSMENT
Figure 2: Proposed Development Scheme & Site Boundary
Objective
1.4 The detailed Air Quality Assessment will focus on the potential impacts on local traffic
emissions once the development has been completed. This will be undertaken by assessing
the potential impact of increased traffic emissions due to the development at existing and
proposed receptors located adjacent to the modelled road network. The pollutants modelled
as part of this assessment are nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM10).
1.5 In addition to this, the assessment has also discussed ways of minimising the impacts of
potential poor air quality on existing receptors by way of mitigation measures, as well as
assessing the potential impact on local air quality from construction activities at the site.
1.6 With the exception of updated damage cost calculations to take account of the reduction in
traffic movements associated with the development, the remainder of this assessment was
