If significant remains are encountered full scale excavation would be necessary inorder to deal with them appropriately. This will be done in consultation with EnglishHeritage and the County Archaeologist.Post excavation work would entail processing and analysis of all data retrievedtogether with the production and publication of a specialist report.4.7 Residual EffectsThere would be no residual effects as all archaeological deposits encountered wouldbe mitigated through preservation by record.32
5 Disruption Due to Construction5.1 Assessment MethodologyThis section of the report addresses the potential effects of the Preferred Version onpeople and the environment during the construction phase. The main potentialenvironmental impacts associated with the construction of the Preferred Version areanticipated to be associated with dust, noise, visual intrusion, disruption to roadusers, residents and import and disposal of fill and excavate respectively. There isalso the likelihood of damage to buried archaeology and disruption to agriculturalaccess.5.2 Baseline ConditionsThe assessment has been undertaken in accordance with the methodology outlinedin the DMRB Volume 11: Section 3: Part 3, published by the HA. The impact ofconstruction on archaeology, noise and vibration landscape and water resources areincluded under each topic contained within the report.Therefore the assessment in this chapter focuses on the following sensitive receptorswithin 100 m of the Preferred Version corridor:• 68 residential properties within 100 m of the Preferred Version. No sensitivereceptors (e.g. schools, hospitals);• and a row of garages on Coalpit Lane representing commercial land use.5.3 Potential ImpactsPotential impacts have considered those resulting in short-term temporary effectsexperienced over the 15 month construction phase starting in 2010 and those longertermor permanent effects extending over onto the operational phase.5.4 Assessment of Environmental ImpactsAccess and Journey TimesThe implementation of traffic management throughout the construction period wouldresult in temporary adverse impact on local residents, commercial properties androad users. .All deliveries to site would be off the main carriageway only. During the construction,there would be some disruption to normal movement along Coalpit Lane during itswidening. This would be particularly disruptive to local residents in the Pepperly Riseresidential area.Also the gaps in the central reserve are to be closed at the beginning of theconstruction works, and under the traffic management provisions, narrow laneswould be in operation throughout.Commercial LossThe identified A row of garages would be demolished under the scheme proposals.need to be demolished to allow for the construction of the A1(T) / Coalpit Lane link ofthe preferred scheme.33
