Construction Method Statement / Traffic Management Plan

For

Beck Homes Ltd

For the erection of 8no dwellings

Land adjacent to St Paul’s Church,

Edisford Road

CLITHEROE
Background

Planning permission was granted 23rd December 2015 for the erection of 8no
detached houses on land adjacent to St Paul’s Church, Edisford Road, Clitheroe
by Ribble Valley Borough Council reference number 3/2015/0624

Scope of Works

The works comprise of the demolition of a former scout hut and the erection of
8no 2 storey detached houses along with all associated roads, sewers, external
works, landscaping and fencing / boundary walls. The development also
comprises of a new vehicular access off Edisford Road and the sealing off of the
vehicular access off St Paul’s Terrace.

Parking of vehicles for site operatives and visitors

The site is predominately a green field with the exception of the former scout
hut and parking area in 1 corner of the site accessed off St Paul’s Terrace. While
the new vehicle entrance to Edisford Road is being created parking will be
available on the existing car park to the former scout hut. Once the new
entrance road and visibility splays have been created and the new roadway
stoned up parking will be available on site for both visitors and site operatives.
Signage will be erected advising where parking is available. The vehicle entrance
to St Paul’s Terrace will then be sealed off

Loading / Unloading of Plant & Materials

All plant and materials will where possible be delivered in suitable sized loads to
ensure lorries have sufficient turning areas within the confines of the site. A
banks man will assist any delivery vehicles in turning / entering / exiting the
site. Where possible all materials / plant will be loaded and unloaded within the
site perimeters.

Storage of Plant and Materials

Materials generally will be stored on site as close as possible to their place of use
and in a safe and orderable fashion. Where possible materials will only be
delivered to site when they are required.

No flammable materials will be stored near the boundary fencing or adjacent to


the new buildings.

Plant will be stored so as not to create obstruction, keys shall be removed when
not in use and isolators if fitted will be activated. Should any fuel need to be
stored on site for plant this will be housed in double skinned bunded tank.

Erection and Maintenance of Security Hoarding

The permanent fencing to the perimeter of the site will be erected at the
commencement of the development with temporary gates fitted at the entrance.
The fencing around the trees to protect the root zones will also be erected at the
commencement of the development. The fencing and gates will be checked on a
daily basis along with the fencing protecting the tree roots zone. Once the
building works to each plot is completed the dividing fences / walls will be
erected between the houses.

Wheel washing facilities

The entrance road to the site will be stoned up at the commencement of the
development and kept clear of mud, debris and materials at all times. In
addition it is anticipated that any excavated material from the development will
be recycled on site. This will minimize any mud or debris being spilled onto
Edisford Road so there should be no need for wheel washing facilities. However
the roads will be inspected on a daily basis and if required a road sweeper will be
implemented.

Measures to control the emission of dirt and dust during construction

Dust arising from the ground prevalent in dry spells and generated by wind and
plant traversing the site will be controlled by spraying water over the ground
from a water bowser.

Dust generated by site works will be controlled by suitable water suppressant or


vacuum system attached to the appropriate piece of plant.

Routes to be used by vehicles carrying plant and materials.

There will be only one main vehicle access to the site which is on Edisford Road
so this will be the only route for delivery vehicles carrying plant and materials to
and from site.

Timing of deliveries

The site is within a predominately residential area with Edisford Road a main
thoroughfare from Clitheroe to the villages of Mitton, Bashall Eaves etc. Either
side of the site is St Pauls Church and Ribblesdale sports pool / complex. There
is also a junior school close by on Edisford road. To minimize disruption to the
school, deliveries to site will generally not be made at the start and finish times
of the school day.

Maintaining access to adjoining properties

The majority of houses on Edisford Road have private driveways where residents
park their vehicles. The contractor will ensure that no delivery vehicles will
impede driveways. The timing of deliveries will generally not be at peak times as
mentioned earlier to minimise disruption to residents.
