1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. PFA Consulting was commissioned by Wiltshire Council to develop future year
traffic model forecasts using the Devizes S-Paramics micro-simulation traffic model to assess the traffic impacts on the highway network from additional transport demand in Devizes up to 2026.
1.2. The traffic modelling provides technical evidence to assist Wiltshire Council in
developing its Core Strategy as part of the Local Development Framework (LDF) process. The results from the traffic modelling will help guide the development of a transport strategy for Devizes which will support the formulation of the Core Strategy element of the LDF.
Background
1.3. A 2011 base year S-Paramics traffic model of Devizes has recently been developed which represents the existing traffic patterns and conditions on the local highway network in both the weekday AM peak period (07:00-10:00) and weekday PM peak period (16:00-19:00).
1.4. The validated 2011 base year traffic model provides the basis from which to
develop 2026 future year model forecasts to assess potential development options put forward by Wiltshire Council to meet the housing and employment requirements of Wiltshire’s Core Strategy.
1.5. Figure 1 identifies the Devizes traffic model study area with the S-Paramics
modelled highway network represented at Appendix A. Report Outline
1.6. This report details the methodology adopted in developing future year traffic model forecasts and presents the model outputs from a number of development scenarios tested.

2. FORECASTING METHODOLOGY 2.1. The aim of the forecasting in the Devizes traffic model is to determine the
impact on the future transport network as a consequence of shifting patterns of demand over time from planned development and traffic growth.
2.2. The model forecasting has assumed an assessment year of 2026 which is
consistent with Wiltshire Council’s Core Strategy Plan Period. 2.3. The forecasting methodology has allowed for traffic growth, proposed
developments, peak spreading and changes to the highway network planned to come forward by 2026. A summary of the forecasting methodology is set out below.
2026 Matrix Development
‘Lights’ (cars & lgvs)
Split the 2011 ‘Lights’ matrix into two matrices; an ‘external’ matrix containing external to external trips only, and an ‘internal’ matrix which only contains trips with an origin and/or a destination in Devizes.
Take the 2011 ‘external matrix’ and growth trips by applying Wiltshire TEMPRO growth factors.
Take the 2011 ‘internal matrix’ and generate a future year 2026 ‘internal
matrix’ by “furnessing” to future year trip ends allowing for proposed development in Devizes and applying local Devizes TEMPRO growth factors to zones where appropriate (e.g. town centre car parks, retail stores, external zones).
Add the factored 2026 ‘external matrix’ to the factored 2026 ’internal matrix’
containing development trips.
‘Heavies’ (hgvs) Take the 2011 HGV matrix and growth trips to 2026 by applying National
Transport Model (NTM) growth factors from the Department for Transport (DfT) ‘Road Transport Forecasts 2009’ for the South-West Region.
2026 Network Development
Development of a 2026 forecast modelled highway network to include proposed highway improvements assumed to come forward by 2026. This includes the two pedestrian crossings on London Road and Windsor Drive, and the proposed relocation of the eastbound bus stop on Estcourt Street.
2026 Model Forecasts
2026 model forecasts were created for a number of development scenarios to assess the operation of the local highway network in Devizes. The 2026 demand profiles were adjusted using a ‘peak spreading’ procedure to reflect drivers retiming their journeys to avoid congestion.

3. TRAFFIC GROWTH 3.1. To represent the situation in the 2026 forecast year, traffic growth has been
applied to the 2011 base year trip matrices following guidance set out in the DfT Transport Analysis Guidance (TAG) Unit 3.15.2 ‘Use of TEMPRO data’, for highway only models, this ensures that the model forecasts benefits from nationally and locally derived growth projections in accordance with government guidance.
3.2. TEMPRO (Dataset version 6.2) was used to calculate growth factors for external
to external trips and for trips with an origin and/or a destination within Devizes.
External to External Traffic (Lights) 3.3. For the longer distance (external to external) through trips the car driver trip end
growth for the Wiltshire TEMPRO zone was derived for both the AM and PM peak periods.
3.4. Table 1 below shows the external to external growth factors 2011-2026 derived
from TEMPRO for both the AM and PM peak periods. Full details of the traffic growth calculations are included at Appendix B.
Table 1: External to External Traffic Growth Factors 2011–2026 (TEMPRO) Wiltshire TEMPRO Zone Growth Factor
AM Peak 1.117
PM Peak 1.128
3.5. The above growth factors derived from TEMPRO were applied to the 2011 base
year external to external matrices to produce 2026 external to external forecast matrices.
Internal Trips (Lights) 3.6. For the internal trips the car driver trip end growth for the local Devizes
TEMPRO zone was derived for both the AM and PM peak periods. 3.7. Table 2 below shows the internal growth factors 2011-2026 derived from
TEMPRO for both the AM and PM peak periods. Full details of the traffic growth calculations are included at Appendix B.
Table 2: Internal Traffic Growth Factors 2011–2026 (TEMPRO) Devizes TEMPRO Zone Growth Factor
AM Peak 1.048
PM Peak 1.057
3.8. Table 3 shows reduced traffic growth factors derived from the Devizes TEMPRO
zone using the ‘alternative planning data’ facility within the TEMPRO software which reflects only those committed housing developments in Devizes coming forward by 2026. Full details of the TEMPRO calculations are provided at Appendix B.

Table 3: Internal Traffic Growth Factors ‘Committed Development Only’ 2011–2026 (TEMPRO) – Alternative Planning Data Assumptions Devizes TEMPRO Zone Growth Factor
(Committed Development only) AM Peak 1.021
PM Peak 1.030
3.9. The standard method of applying trip-end growth factors is by multiplying base
year trip matrix row and column totals by TEMPRO growth factors and then ‘furnessing’ the base matrix to these totals. However, to more accurately model the development likely to come forward in Devizes, the future year trip ends (row and column totals) were derived having regard to the scale and location of future development in Devizes (See Section 4), with TEMPRO growth factors only applied to non-development zones where appropriate.
3.10. As the ‘furness’ procedure only converges when row and column totals each
have the same number of trips, the two estimates of the total trips in the matrix (one from the rows, one from the columns) need to be reconciled. This was done by taking the average of the two estimates, and controlling both row and column totals to this total.
3.11. The trip end growth factors derived from TEMPRO were applied to the 2011
base year matrices using the ‘furness’ procedure described above to produce 2026 forecast matrices for internal trips.
HGV Growth 3.12. Growth factors for HGV’s were obtained from the ‘Road Transport Forecasts
2009’ document which is produced by the ITEA division of the DfT using the National Transport Model (NTM). The NTM provides growth factors at the regional level by road type for rigid and articulated HGV’s.
3.13. Table 4 details the HGV growth between 2011 and 2026 derived from the NTM
for the South West Region for Principal Roads, with full details provided at Appendix B.
Table 4: HGV Growth Factor 2011-2026 (NTM) South-West Region Principal Road Type Growth Factor
2011 to 2026 1.107
3.14. The HGV growth factors derived from NTM were applied to the 2011 base year
HGV matrices to produce 2026 HGV forecast matrices.

4. FUTURE DEVELOPMENT 4.1. The TEMPRO guidance advises that where a development proposal is likely to
have a significant impact on demand for transport it should be explicitly modelled.
4.2. The Devizes traffic model forecasting has explicitly modelled all developments
in Devizes to ensure a robust and more accurate assessment of the impacts that the developments would have on the operation of the highway network.
Committed Development 4.3. Table 5 details existing committed developments (as of July 2011) in Devizes
which are assumed to be delivered by 2026. This includes the outstanding residential commitments at the former Spitalcroft allotments, Naughton Aveneue, Quakers Walk and Bureau West, together with the saved Kennet Local Plan employment allocation on Land at Nursteed Road. The commitments have also included the new two-form entry primary school at Quakers Walk which is due to open next year, and the new B&Q retail store off Hambleton Avenue which opened in the summer (the former FOCUS store was closed in the 2011 base model).

4.4. Figure 2 details the locations of each of the committed developments.
Core Strategy Potential Development Sites 4.5. Table 6 details those sites which Wiltshire Council considers could potentially
be developed within the Devizes urban area thorough its Core Strategy. 4.6. The sites represent a general distribution of development within Devizes’ current
limits of development. The residential sites were chosen from the published Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA). The sites do not however have any status within the Core Strategy and their selection should not be read as implying development will be permitted. They were selected to test potential impact on the highway network of the housing proposals for Devizes in the emerging Wiltshire Core Strategy.

4.8. The locations of the Core Strategy potential development sites in Devizes are
shown in Figure 2.
Additional Larger Peripheral Residential Sites 4.9. Table 7 details additional larger scale residential development in Devizes. The
sites were chosen from the SHLAA and to reflect where there is developer led interest for additional, long term, development in Devizes.
4.10. The sites were selected to test the potential impact of peripheral growth on the
highway network. However, not all options where there is developer interest for additional long term growth were tested.
4.11. The locations of the three larger scale residential sites are shown in Figure 2.

Development Traffic Generation & Distribution 4.12. Traffic generation for the various developments detailed above was estimated
using trip rates derived from either locally observed data or the TRICS database. 4.13. The traffic generation calculations for both the AM peak (07:00-10:00) and PM
peak (16:00-19:00) time periods for each of the development sites, including the trip rates adopted, are set out in the table at Appendix C.

4.14. The methodology adopted for the distribution of the development traffic was based on the distribution from existing zones (same land use and location) in the traffic model. Appendix C identifies those zones used for distributing the development traffic for each development site.
Forecast Zone Plan 4.15. The Devizes traffic model zone plan was refined to incorporate the proposed
development detailed above. Appendix D details the revised Devizes zone plan used for the traffic forecasting.

5. PEAK SPREADING 5.1. Peak spreading is a behavioural response to congestion resulting from traffic
growth. It occurs when travellers choose to depart earlier or later than their preferred time of travel in order to reduce their travel time.
5.2. Peak spreading is caused by relatively small changes in departure time, which
are a response to the variation in travel times between origins and destinations. These variations are caused by the build-up and dispersal of queues at points in the network. This is a dynamic process, which is not possible to represent using standard assignment methods, which are time-aggregate.
5.3. Within a modelled time period, S-Paramics provides the ability to represent
demand variation through the use of release profiles based on 5-minute periods. These are applied in a flexible manner to groups of zones, individual zones, sector to sector movements, or specific origin/destination (OD) movements. The release profiles provide an ideal tool for modelling peak spreading.
5.4. The peak spreading methodology uses an incremental logit model of departure
time choice, where changes in travel time govern the spread of demand over the peak period. The incremental logit model is used to derive a new release profile by modifying a base year release profile with reference to the change in travel times between base and future years.
5.5. The peak spreading procedure outlined above has been applied to the Devizes
traffic model forecasting resulting in a revised set of demand release profiles for the 2026 model forecasts as a consequence of people retiming their journeys to avoid congestion. Not all of the profiles in the model have been subject to the peak spreading procedure, for example, the profiles for trips to/from schools in Devizes have been unaltered from the 2011 base year.

7. MODEL OUTPUTS 7.1. This section of the report provides the outputs from the S-Paramics models for all
of the scenarios tested. The outputs represent an average from 5 separate seeded runs of the model for each scenario. Performing multiple runs and combining the data is statistically more robust than relying on a single run of the model.
7.2. To assess the relative performance of each of the scenarios the following model
outputs have been analysed:
Modelled Link Flows Network Wide Average Speed Network Wide Average Journey Time A361 ‘Through Traffic’ Average Journey Time Bus Journey Times Vehicle Emissions Modelled Link Flows
7.3. Figures 3 & 4 show two-way link traffic flows on key links in Devizes derived from the traffic model for each scenario for the weekday AM peak hour (08:00-09:00) and weekday PM peak hour (17:00-18:00) time periods.
7.4. The figures show some links experiencing little change in traffic flows in the
2026 forecast year, this is not unusual in congested urban networks where less traffic gets through as congestion increases. The effect of peak spreading also reduces the level of traffic during the peak hours with increased levels of congestion.
Network Wide Average Speed
7.5. Tables 11 & 12 details the network wide average speed (kph) for all vehicles for each of the scenarios in both the AM and PM peak periods.

Table 12: Network Wide Average Journey Speeds – PM Peak Period (16:00-19:00)
Network Wide Average Journey Time 7.6. To provide an indication as to the overall performance of the modelled highway
network for each of the scenarios tested, graphs output from S-Paramics representing ‘average journey times’ for all vehicles on the network have been produced for both the AM and PM peak periods, and are reproduced at Appendix E.
7.7. The network wide ‘average journey time’ is a good indicator as to the relative
performance of each of the scenarios in terms of queuing and delay on the modelled highway network throughout the time periods modelled. This output is commonly used to assess the overall performance of highway networks for S-Paramics models of this size.
7.8. Tables 13 & 14 summarise the network wide ‘average journey times’ for each of
the scenarios for both the AM peak hour (08:00-09:00) and PM peak hour (17:00-18:00) time periods. The tables also show the increase in average journey times for each of the 2026 model forecast scenarios.
7.9. The tables show that average journey times increase with increasing numbers of
trips on the network as a consequence of increased levels of congestion.

Bus Journey Times 7.12. Tables 17 & 18 show the average bus journey times for all scheduled bus
services in Devizes for both the AM and PM peak period. The tables also show the increase in average bus journey times for each of the 2026 model forecast scenarios.
Table 17: Average Bus Journey Times–AM Peak Period (07:00-10:00)
Table 18: Average Bus Journey Times–PM Peak Period (16:00-19:00)
7.13. The above tables show that average bus journey times increase with increasing numbers of trips on the network as a consequence of increased levels of congestion.

Vehicle Emissions 7.14. To accurately estimate emissions from each of the scenarios modelled the AIRE
(Analysis of Instantaneous Road Emissions) software module has been used. 7.15. The AIRE software was developed to enable micro-simulation outputs to be
accurately and efficiently interpreted to produce emissions estimates for multiple model runs. AIRE contains more accurate data on current engine types, and its use combined with micro-simulation model outputs results in a more refined estimate of vehicle emissions particularly when modelling urban networks with stop-start conditions.
7.16. The outputs from AIRE are oxides of nitrogen (NOX), particulate matter (PM10)
and total carbon with estimates produced for each vehicle at each simulated timestep that can be aggregated by individual link, per trip or across entire networks.
7.17. The fleet compositions and engine type forecasts included in AIRE are based on
the National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory (NAEI) datasets. This assumes that the proportion of older engine types decreases, and the proportion of newer, "cleaner" engines increases as time progresses. This has a significant impact on the emissions of NOX and PM10 which are very sensitive to fleet changes with reduced emissions resulting from an improved vehicle fleet.
7.18. Outputs from AIRE for the 2026 forecast year have been produced for both an
improved vehicle fleet, based on the NAEI dataset, and the existing 2011 vehicle fleet assuming the status-quo. This provides a range of values for each pollutant the level of which will be dependent on the extent to which improvements to vehicle fleet compositions and engine types come about in the future.
Network Wide Vehicle Emissions
7.19. Tables 19 & 20 shows the vehicle emissions in respect of NOX, PM10 and total carbon from all vehicles over the entire modelled highway network for each scenario in both the AM and PM modelled peak periods.

Table 20: Network Wide Vehicle Emissions – PM Peak (16:00-19:00)
7.20. The results output from AIRE show that in 2026 both NOX and PM10 would be
lower than existing levels if the assumed vehicle fleet and engine types assumed by the NAEI materialise. The improved vehicle fleet in the future year offsets the increased volumes/congestion. This is not the case for the carbon emissions which are not as affected by the fleet changes (scope for decreases in carbon output with better engines is not as great as that for reducing NOx and PM10 emissions) and as such even though the fleet may be more efficient in the future year, this is not offset by the increased flows/congestion in the context of the carbon emitted.
7.21. If however no improvements to vehicles fleet and engine types were to come
about then there would be an increase in NOX, PM10 and total carbon emitted as a consequence of increased volumes and congestion on the highway network. Local Area Vehicle Emissions
7.22. Air quality monitoring in Devizes has highlighted a number of locations where air quality is a particular concern.
7.23. Figure 5 shows the three locations from which vehicle emissions have been
specifically collected, namely, Shane’s Castle, Brewery Corner and The Green/Roses Roundabouts. Each of these local areas experience significant traffic volumes and queuing at peak periods.
