HEREFORDSHIRE COUNCIL SOUTH WYE TRANSPORT PACKAGE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS FROM THE DEPARTMENT FOR TRANSPORT ON MODEL DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION REPORT JANUARY 2016 PROJECT NUMBER DOCUMENT REFERENCE FINAL 3511985BP-HHR TPV-0002 PREPARED BY xxxxxxxxx 15 JANUARY 2016 AGREED BY xxxxxxxx 15 JANUARY 2016 APPROVED FOR ISSUE BY xxxxxxxx / xxxxxxx 15 JANUARY 2016 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. BACKGROUND 1.1.1. WSP Parsons Brinckerhoff (WSP PB) has been commissioned by Balfour Beatty Living Places/Hereford Council (HC) to update the highway assignment model part of the Hereford Multi Modal Transport Model (HMMTM) and create a new Hereford Transport Model (HTM). This was completed in October 2015 and documented in the South Wye Transport Package Model Development and Validation Report (MDVR). Following completion of the HTM, the reporting was submitted to the Department for Transport (DfT) for consideration. 1.1.2. The purpose of this technical note is to respond to the comments received from the DfT on the South Wye Transport Package Model Development and Validation Report (Reference: 3512983BP-5.2.1-TPV-0001, dated October 2015). Comments were addressed from three different sources, identified below, each source has been treated independently and where comments have been repeated they have been cross referenced to the appropriate section of this technical note. From email (main text): xxxxxxx (WSP PB) to xxxxxx (Head of Modelling, Local Economics, DfT), Retained Scheme South Wye Transport Package_LMVR and ASR, 14 October 2015 @ 17:11; From email (main text): xxxxx (Head of Modelling, Local Economics, DfT) to xxxxxxx (WSP PB), South Wye comments on LMVR report, 30 October 2015 @ 12:24; and From email (attachment: comments on model development lmvr-south Wye29102015.docx): xxxxxxx (Head of Modelling, Local Economics, DfT) to xxxxxxxx (WSP PB), South Wye comments on LMVR report, 30 October 2015 @ 12:24. 1.1.3. Rather than reproduce the MDVR, this technical note should be treated as an addendum to the original report.

2. FROM EMAIL (MAIN TEXT): xxxxxxxxxx (WSP PB) TO xxxxxxx (HEAD OF MODELLING, LOCAL ECONOMICS, DFT), RETAINED SCHEME SOUTH WYE TRANSPORT PACKAGE_LMVR AND ASR, 14 OCTOBER 2015 @ 17:11 2.1. POINT #1 FROM EMAIL As per the LMVR, the proposed Southern Link Road (SLR) is currently at the very edge of the proposed modelled area. DfT wanted HC s consultant to review and confirm that the proposed modelled network is able to capture the impacts on the appropriate modelled network given the SLR is on the edge of the modelled area. 2.1.1. The simulation network within the HTM covers all of the used routes to the south of Hereford; a plan of the modelled road network has been included in Appendix A of this technical note. But specifically, the simulation network includes all the main routes which cross the railway line between Tram Inn and the A49 in Redhill. The network beyond the urban edge of Hereford is sparse with little route choice. There are no further roads which will have any level of strategic reassignment on the network which are not included in the model. The MDVR demonstrates the calibration/validation of the model on the main roads (A49 and A465) in the south of the model as shown on Map 2-2 in the following locations: Ruckhall Lane; B4349 to Clehonger; A465 (south of the junction with the B4349); The route (lane) linking Portway to the A465 south of the roundabout in Belmont; Grafton Lane; and Roundabout junction linking the A49 (Ross Road) with the B4399. 2.1.2. As the model flows fit with the calibration/validation criteria in all these locations we can confirm the model is able to capture the impacts of the SLR even though it is on the edge of the simulation network. 2.2. POINT #2 FROM EMAIL LMVR to make a distinction between the data used for validation and calibration, particularly with regards to Map 2-2 Location of Link and Junction counts on Page 4 2.2.1. A map has been prepared and included in Appendix B showing the location of the link and junction counts identifying the counts used for model calibration and validation purposes. 2.3. POINT #3 FROM EMAIL DfT suggested WSP PB to explore the possibility of having a screen line in the vicinity of the proposed SLR. 2 / 12

2.3.1. We have looked into this on the basis of the data available and a screen line can be produced. The results are summarised in the table below and the location of the screen line is identified in Appendix C. The model shows a good level of validation in this area of the model although it should be noted there is a lack of observed traffic data for Grafton Lane. However, it is not considered that this compromises the robustness of the model. AM Interpeak PM Inbound Observed screen line flow 1,025 583 916 Modelled Screen line flow 956 518 882 Absolute difference 69 65 34 Relative difference -7% -11% -4% GEH 2.2 2.8 1.1 Outbound Observed screen line flow 1,019 619 1,002 Modelled Screen line flow 855 505 1,050 Absolute difference 164 114 48 Relative difference -16% -18% 5% GEH 5.4 4.8 1.5 2.3.2. The summary table includes traffic flow data from five sites and shows the modelled flows are a fair representation of the split of trips across these routes in/out of Hereford in the vicinity of the Southern Link Road. Further details of the screen line validation have been included in Appendix D. 2.4. POINT #4 FROM EMAIL With regards to matrix calibration comparisons (Table 6.6, Table 6.7), DfT suggested further analysis, with regards to sectors 1 to 4 within Hereford Centre, needs to be presented in the LMVR 2.4.1. The derived base year trip matrices were then calibrated to the totals of counts on a number of cordons and screen lines in the model area, represented by the sector boundaries shown in Map 3-2 and 3-3 in the MDVR. The trip matrices were assigned to the updated model networks and select link assignments carried out for links corresponding to each of the count sites. The select link trip matrices were then summed to give matrices for each of the cordons and screen lines. 2.4.2. The corresponding origin-destination movements in the full matrices were then factored so that the total trips in the select link matrix portions were the same as the count totals. This was repeated for each cordon and screen line and 10 iterations of the process carried out so that the matrix totals converged to the count totals. 2.4.3. The differences between the initial and calibrated matrices were small, as shown in the tables attached as Appendix E. The small initial calibration changes validated the matrix building method using NTEM trip ends, the calibrated gravity model and the 2001 journey to work distribution. 2.5. POINT #5 FROM EMAIL DfT confirmed with WSP PB about the overall approach to matrix rebuilding. DfT wanted to understand that the approach was primarily using NTEM, NTM and Census data for trip ends and use of gravity model for trip distribution compared to the use of traditional approach using RSI data 2.5.1. Further details of the matrix build process have been addressed in Sections 3 and 4 of this technical note. 3 / 12

3. FROM EMAIL (MAIN TEXT): xxxxxx [DfT] TO xxxxxxxxx [WSP], SOUTH WYE COMMENTS ON LMVR REPORT, 30 OCTOBER 2015 @ 12:24 We One of our main concerns is the approach used for matrix development. understand that SATURN model s prior matrix was built from gravity modelling using NTM, NTEM and Ctripend without using any of the survey data. This approach is not in line with WebTAG guidance. In order for us to understand the uncertainty and risks related to approach, it will be useful if you could demonstrate if the model is fit for purpose, especially in the following: 3.1. BULLET POINT #1 < Provide evidence that the matrix can reflect observed trip pattern and local demand such as using survey data such as RSI, ANPR, mobile phone data etc. < The use of census data- how the census data were used for matrix development? Any validity check on the key movements identified for the study area from raw census data. < The representation of vehicle composition, esp. the percentage of HGV on key routes in the study area is reasonable. < The modelling coverage it should present the scope of the impact of the new road and its competitive routes. Provide evidence that the matrix can reflect observed trip pattern and local demand such as using survey data such as RSI, ANPR, mobile phone data etc. 4 / 12

3.1.1. The trip matrix has been validated against TrafficMaster OD data, further details are provided in Section 4.3.8 4.3.12 of this technical note. No other datasets exist, hence the need to adopt a matrix synthesising process. 3.1.2. The use of mobile phone data in the production of trip matrices is not yet proven. The DfT are currently assembling best practice into the use of mobile phone datasets for the purposes of developing trip matrices. Once this is completed this will then be used to inform the development of guidance for the incorporation into WebTAG. Given the programme for the development of the HTM model, it was not considered appropriate to pursue the use of mobile phone data in the development of the trip matrices. 3.1.3. The use of ANPR data for use in a model the size of the HTM is limited due its inability to provide any certainty where trips start and finish. ANPR Data collected from a cordon of cameras around the city would provide information regarding the number of trips passing into / out of the cordon but would not provide information regarding the destination within the cordon. A proportion of the trips would enter the cordon at one point and exit at another but information regarding their ultimate journey start and end points would not be available. For ANPR data to have been useful, a cordon around the whole of Hereford would have been required along with secondary and tertiary cameras to track movements within the city. The cost of collecting such data would have been prohibitive and disproportionate to the amount of useful information on trip patterns it would provide. 3.2. BULLET POINT #2 The use of census data- how the census data were used for matrix development? Any validity check on the key movements identified for the study area from raw census data. 3.2.1. This comment has been addressed in Section 4.5 of this technical note. 3.3. BULLET POINT #3 The representation of vehicle composition, esp. the percentage of HGV on key routes in the study area is reasonable. 3.3.1. The following tables demonstrate the representation of the vehicle composition and how the model reflects the percentage of HGVs across the cordons and screen lines. CORDON OR SCREEN LINE % DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OBSERVED AND MODELLED FLOWS NUMBER OF LINKS WHERE GEH < 4 AM IP PM AM IP PM Outer Cordon Inbound -10% -4% -40% 89% 100% 100% Outer Cordon Outbound -10% -9% -29% 89% 100% 100% Inner Cordon Inbound -21% -16% -35% 67% 89% 100% Inner Cordon Outbound +1% -22% -39% 89% 67% 89% East/West Screen line Eastbound -15% -30% -3% 83% 17% 17% East/West Screen line Westbound -22% -34% -40% 67% 67% 67% 5 / 12

3.3.2. Across the cordon and screen lines the representation of the volumes of HGVs is good, although the East/West screen line could be better with a poor distribution across the links but a good total number of HGVs crossing the screen line. The table shows large percentage differences, but this is due to the very low numbers of HGVs crossing the screen lines and cordons, therefore not compromising the robustness of the model. 3.3.3. A detailed report of the performance of individual links across the cordons and screen lines has been included in Appendix F. AM peak hour Interpeak hour PM peak hour CRITERION Flows to have GEH 5.0 or less Flows (<700pcu/h) to be within 100 pcu/h of observed Flows to have GEH 5.0 or less Flows (<700pcu/h) to be within 100 pcu/h of observed Flows to have GEH 5.0 or less Flows (<700pcu/h) to be within 100 pcu/h of observed NUMBER OF OBSERVATIONS ACHIEVING CRITERION PERCENTAGE ACHIEVING CRITERION 44 92% 48 100% 42 88% 48 100% 45 94% 48 100% 3.3.4. When considering the performance of individual links within the model, but not on a cordon or screen line, the table above demonstrates that more than 85% of links across all three modelled periods meet the criterion for all flow validation when applied specifically for HGVs. 3.3.5. It is considered that the information in these tables demonstrates that the model has a reasonable representation of HGV patterns across the network, especially within the fully modelled area. 3.4. BULLET POINT #4 The modelling coverage it should present the scope of the impact of the new road and its competitive routes. 6 / 12

3.4.1. Further details of the model coverage are included in Section 2.1 of this technical note. To reiterate, the next alternative route within Hereford is a residential route which is heavily trafficked by local movements and further from Hereford the alternative routes are tortuous country lanes with small settlements. There are no further roads which will have any level of strategic reassignment on the network which are not included in the model. 4. FROM EMAIL (ATTACHMENT: COMMENTS ON MODEL DEVELOPMENT LMVR-SOUTH WYE29102015.DOCX): xxxxxxxxx (HEAD OF MODELLING, LOCAL ECONOMICS, DEPARTMENT FOR TRANSPORT) TO xxxxxxxxxxxxx, SOUTH WYE COMMENTS ON LMVR REPORT, 30 OCTOBER 2015 @ 12:24. 4.1. COMMENT #1: [CH. 3] SATURN MODEL ROAD NETWORK WAS NOT PROVIDED IN THE REPORT. THE SLR (SOUTH LINK ROAD) IS OUTSIDE THE DETAILED MODELLING AREA (MAP 3-1) Please ensure the modelling coverage is able to represent the proposed new road and its alternative routes. 4.1.1. Further details of the model coverage are included in Section 2.1 of this technical note. Any intention to demonstrate if the modelling coverage is robust using methods such as variable demand modelling? 4.1.2. There is no intention to undertake variable demand modelling using the base year model. Consideration of variable demand modelling will be undertaken during the forecasting stage of the scheme assessment. It is unclear how variable demand modelling would inform the model coverage. 4.2. COMMENT #2: [CH. 3] 404 ZONES IN THE NEW ZONING SYSTEM AND 295 ZONES WITHIN HEREFORD. IT IS UNCLEAR ON HOW AGGREGATED DEMAND WERE DISAGGREGATE AT THE ZONAL LEVEL. Please explain on how tripend data were applied and split into the detailed zonal level for the study. 4.2.1. Details of how the new zone system was created are included in Chapter 6 of the MDVR. 4.2.2. Essentially, the land use inputs into the trip generation calculations are identified using Census data and AddressBase property classification data and grouped to the modelled zone system. The CTripEnd programme is used to generate the trips for each model zone. The aggregate total number of people, households and jobs are constrained at the TEMPRO zone level. Multiple model zones form a single TEMPRO zone. 4.2.3. This process is different to calculating the number of trips in a TEMPRO zone and then disaggregating across the modelled zones within the TEMPRO zone and is considered to be more accurate as it includes detailed information on the land uses and demographics within each modelled zone. 4.3. COMMENT #3: [CH. 6] SYNTHETIC MATRICES WERE USED FOR PRIOR MATRIX DEVELOPMENT USING CENSUS DATA 2001/2011, NTM AND CTRIPEND WHICH DOES NOT FOLLOW THE GUIDANCE IN WEBTAG. PLEASE PROVIDE DETAILED EVIDENCE ON NOT USING EXISTING SURVEY 7 / 12

DATA (PARA 6.1.2). ANY CONSIDERATION OF USING THE SURVEY DATA TO VALIDATE TRIP PATTERNS. The rationale and evidence for not following the guidance on matrix development, i.e. developing a fully synthesised prior matrix using NTEM, NTM and CTripEnd instead of using observed survey data such as RSI as recommended in WebTAG. 4.3.1. The collection of origin and destination data for the HMMTM focussed on using a combination of household, workplace, car park interview and automatic number plate recognition data. Roadside interview surveys were not undertaken. 4.3.2. Having reviewed the data collected for the development of the HMMTM, it was determined that much of the data had been processed and that the raw data was unavailable and/or details of the processing that had been undertaken were either inadequate or missing. 4.3.3. Therefore, the decision was made to synthesise the trip matrices using land use and demographic information to develop the prior matrices, then to use the traffic count data and journey times to calibrate and validate the model. The methodology adopted is common to that used by NTM as it combines demographic and employment data with trip rates. Early discussions took place with DfT colleague xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in autumn 2014 and this approach was verbally agreed in principle. According to WebTAG, TEMPRO tripend data should be used as the basis of trip growth rather than as absolute trips. Any evidence that the prior matrix can reasonably represent the local demand. 4.3.4. Sections 6.4 and 6.5 of the MDVR detail how the prior matrix produces a reasonable estimate of local demand based on the performance of the matrix in terms of sector to sector movements and movements crossing a series of screen lines. Please clarify which survey data (such as household survey, ANPR and employment survey) were used. Contradictory information was given in the scheme meeting on 13/10/2015 at DfT. 4.3.5. Details of the traffic count and journey time data used in model development can be found in Chapter 4 of the MDVR. The data includes Automatic Traffic Counts (ATCs), Manual Classified Counts (MCCs), journey time surveys, and Trafficmaster origin/destination data. 4.3.6. ATC data was used to inform the cordon / screenline calibration. The MCC turning count data was used to inform the matrix estimation procedure. The MCC link counts were used in the model validation. patterns were validated against Trafficmaster Origin/Destination data. 4.3.7. No origin and destination survey data was used in the production of the trip matrices for the HTM. Origin and destination data was collected for the HMMTM and used in the development of the highway assignment part of that model. A review of that data found it not fit for use in this modelling exercise as it had already been subject to post-collection processing and manipulation. 8 / 12

4.3.8. Roadside interviews would have provided a partial representation of travel demand and we would have had to synthesise the remainder of the trip matrix. If we had created a cordon around Hereford and conducted roadside interviews on the cordon, we would still have needed to synthesise all trip making within Hereford and 90% of the trips (assuming a 10% sample rate) passing each roadside interview location. Historic data has suggested that 40% of trips remain within Hereford, 40% are to/from Hereford and 20% of trips are through the City. This would mean we would need to synthesis 94% (40%+36%+18%) of trips in the model; the roadside interview data would directly provide 6% of trips. 4.3.9. The ability of ANPR to supplement the roadside interview data is very limited due to its inability to tell you where trips start and finish. See paragraph 3.1.3 of this technical note for further details. Please suggest way in which demonstrate matrix is fit for purpose using evidence to confirm that the model can accurately reflect the underlying real trip pattern (such as using RSI, ANPR, mobile data, etc) particularly on the key strategic routes and those trips might be attracted to the new route. 4.3.10. External validation of the trip matrices produced has been undertaken using TrafficMaster OD data. Whilst the comparison can only be done at a bespoke sector level, it does provide confidence as to the representativeness of the highway assignment model. 4.3.11. Details of the sector to sector comparison are in Appendix F of the MDVR. The appendix shows that the majority of modelled sector to sector movements across the different modelled time periods and user classes are within 10% of the equivalent sector to sector movements observed with the TrafficMaster data. 4.4. COMMENT #4: [CH. 6] THE CALIBRATION OF GRAVITY MODEL For the calibration/validation of gravity model s parameters, the observed average costs/ trip length distribution are seemed to be from the previous developed SATURN model instead of observed data- please clarify. Please provide the rationale for this. 4.4.1. The local data was used in producing the matrices for the HMMTM and calibrating the gravity model to these has resulted in locally derived distribution parameters. 4.4.2. Deriving the distribution parameters for the gravity model from the trip matrices from the previous version of the model is similar to using the original origin and destination data. It could be regarded as more accurate as the matrices have been calibrated and validated. 4.5. COMMENT #5: [CH. 6] THE USE OF CENSUS DATA It is unclear how the Census 2001 and 2011 data were used. Concerns of using very old census data, esp. 2001 Census data for the matrix development. 4.5.1. 2001 data was only used to estimate the proportion of intra-zonal trips for each zone and not for any part of estimating the land use inputs for the trip generation. It was not possible to derive the equivalent estimates from the Census 2011 datasets as the required level of disaggregation is no longer available. 9 / 12

4.5.2. The Census 2011 datasets were used to establish the relative proportions of the number of people (in 88 person types), number of households, number of jobs in 11 employment classifications and modal split indicators for the work and home ends of the trips all at the output area level (this is detailed in 6.3.3-6.3.12 of the MDVR). Where the zone system is more detailed than output areas, classified address data was used to disaggregate people/households and jobs to this level. Please provide details on how the Census data were used in the model development and any validity check on the key movements identified from the census data. Please provide key movements identified from the Census data. 4.5.3. The example zones in Appendix G show how the input Census and AddressBase Data compare and how this corresponds to the trips generated in each zone. It can be seen that for the residential data, the total number of addresses in each output area closely corresponds with the Census 2011 data. In general the census figures are slightly lower which is likely due to a combination of non-responses and not all addresses being occupied. The HBW trip ends produced by the model generally correspond well with the 2011 Census travel to work data for each OA with 30-40% of the total car driver origins departing in the AM peak. 4.5.4. The examples also demonstrate how using the AddressBase data to subdivide land use inputs beyond Census level works to ensure sensible trip ends are generated for each zone. For example in zone 11055 where there are no residential zones there are also no home based trips generated. 4.5.5. The example zones also show how the employment data is used and the generated trip ends generally correspond well with the travel to work data, with approximately one third of the car driver trips arriving in the morning peak. As with the residential data, where the zone structure is finer than the workplace zone structure, the address data ensures that very few work trip ends are generated in purely residential areas like Zone 11111 4.6. COMMENT #6: [CH. 4] ME PROCESS AND MODEL VALIDATION LMVR to make a distinction between the data used for validation and calibration, particularly with regards to Map 2-2 Location of Link and Junction counts on Page 4. 4.6.1. Details of the link and junction counts used for the model calibration and validation are provided in Appendix B of this technical note. Matrix estimation seems to use both ATC and MCC. It is unclear if the MCC single day counts were adjusted to average day counts. Please confirm. 4.6.2. The MCCs were single day counts and not adjusted to average day counts. The counts were factored for model development purposes from vehicles to Passenger Car Units (PCUs). It would be useful to provide validation details in the area of most interest (i.e. routes adjacent parallel to the scheme) and demonstrate model s fit in the area (with the use of screen lines if possible). 10 / 12

4.6.3. Full details of all the calibration and validation points in the vicinity of the scheme are provided in Appendices D and I in the MDVR. A further validation screen line parallel to the scheme has been reported in Section 2.3 of this technical note. There are no roads that can be considered parallel to the scheme. Matrix calibration comparisons (Table 6.6, Table 6.7) considerate changes at sector level post ME, esp. sectors 1 to 4 within Hereford Centre. Please examine and any adjustments are required. What are the possible impact on the underlying trip pattern and appraisals? 4.6.4. Further information on the initial matrix calibration of sectors 1 to 4 within Hereford is included in Section 2.4 of this technical report Any evidence on model s representation of vehicle composition, esp. on HGV % as the new road and existing route are intended to be used for HGV in addition to other vehicles. 4.6.5. Further information on the representation of HGVs in the model is provided in Section 3.3 of this technical note. 4.7. COMMENT #7: [CH. 4 PAGE 19] LACK OF INFORMATION ON JOURNEY TIME SURVEYS Please provide information on sample size, standard deviation, etc as well as date of collection 4.7.1. The journey time survey data was collected for the HMMTM in 2012, summary details including information on average free flow and delayed travel times, standard deviations and sample sizes has been included as Appendix H. 5. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS 5.1. SUMMARY 5.1.1. This technical note should be considered as an addendum to the original South Wye Transport Package Model Development and Validation Report produced in October 2015. 5.1.2. From the various comments received, there are a couple of common themes that this technical note has sought to address, namely: Further information on the development of the trip matrices as the approach does not conform to current WebTAG guidance; further information on the performance on the model in the vicinity of the scheme, as the scheme is on the edge of the fully modelled area; and further information on the model s representation of HGV traffic 5.1.3. Additional information has been provided: that explains the trip matrix development in more detail and demonstrates that the matrices produced are a reasonable representation of the demand for travel on the highway network within the fully modelled area; that demonstrates that the model is suitable for assessing the impact of the South Wye Transport Package, albeit that the highway scheme is on the edge of the Hereford urban area. The other measures which make up the transport package are aimed at travel from the south west of Hereford to/from the city centre and are within the fully modelled area; and 11 / 12

that demonstrates that the transport model has a reasonable representation of HGV trips. 5.2. CONCLUSION 5.2.1. This technical note should be treated as an addendum to the original South Wye Transport Package Model Development and Validation Report. 5.2.2. The content of this technical note has addressed all the comments received from the Department for Transport and adds to the South Wye Transport Package Model Development and Validation Report in demonstrating that the Hereford Transport Model is a robust and suitable tool for assessing this stage of the South Wye Transport Package business case. 12 / 12
