1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 This Travel Plan has been prepared by Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) on behalf of

St. Albans City & District Council (SACDC) in respect of a planning application for

the redevelopment of Westminster Lodge at Holywell Hill, St. Albans. Refer to CEC

Plan 2811/201 [Site Location Plan] contained within Appendix 1.

1.2 This report examines the existing accessibility of the site by sustainable modes of

transport, discusses existing Leisure Centre user travel habits and the availability of

car parking and identifies potential travel plan measures, objectives, targets and

performance monitoring. The scope for the Travel Plan has been discussed and

agreed with Officers at Hertfordshire County Council (HCC), which is the local

Highway Authority for the area.

Consultations

1.3 The discussions with Technical Officers of HCC have resulted in broad agreement

regarding the content, methodology and data inputs that are adopted within this

Report.

1.4 A Transport Assessment relating to the proposed redevelopment accompanies this

report as a separate document.

What is a Travel Plan?

1.5 A Travel Plan is a long-term strategy for improving and managing access to a

development, which focuses on promoting sustainable travel modes and minimising

single occupancy car trips.

1.6 It will be the responsibility of the operator of the Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre

to implement the actions identified in this Travel Plan. They will either appoint staff

internally, or use a specialist consultant to ensure the actions are completed.

1.7 A Travel Plan needs to consider all the journeys to and from a development site.

With respect to the Leisure Centre, this relates to not only the journey to and from

work for members of staff, but also to journeys to and from the Leisure Centre by its

users and visitors/spectators (hereon referred to as users).

Travel Plan Objective

1.8 The high-level objective of this Travel Plan is:

1.9 This aim can be achieved in a number of ways, but the intention will be to:

Scope

1.10 This document does not set out to explain the concepts behind a Travel Plan, which

are discussed in detail in other relevant information, sources, and publications. It has

however, been prepared using the following guidance:

To reduce the impact of the development's travel demands through raising awareness and

encouraging environmentally friendly travel behaviour.

§ reduce single person occupancy car use;

§ increase the number of people car sharing;

§ increase the number of people walking and cycling to the leisure Centre (be it

staff or users; and

§ increase the number of people travelling to the Leisure Centre by public

transport, including the use of bus and rail infrastructure.

§ 'The Essential Guide to Travel Planning' by the Department for Transport (DfT);

§ ‘Green Travel Plan Guidance for Hertfordshire’ by Hertfordshire County Council

(HCC); and

§ Other reference material.

1.11 DfT guidance emphasises the importance of Travel Plans as part of the Transport

Assessment process. It states that the Travel Plan measures that are implemented can

have a direct influence on the likely impact of the proposed development, by reducing

the overall number of car-borne trips generated by the development.

1.12 This document is divided into the following sections:

§ Section 2.0 describes the existing local highway network conditions;

§ Section 3.0 outlines the policy context of the development proposal;

§ Section 4.0 describes the development proposals;

§ Section 5.0 describes the accessibility of the development site;

§ Section 6.0 provides a summary of the Travel Surveys;

§ Section 7.0 describes the package of measures to be provided as part of the Travel

Plan;

§ Section 8.0 describes the management of the Travel Plan;

§ Section 9.0 sets down the targets for the Travel Plan;

§ Section 10.0 discusses the proposed monitoring and review regime;

§ Section 11.0 describes the Actions and Programme for Implementation;

Review

1.13 This Travel Plan will need to be reviewed and updated periodically in order to:

§ review the targets and whether these are being achieved;

§ revise the targets or the initiatives accordingly; and

§ update information relating to available public transport, cycle routes etc.

Benefits of a Travel Plan

1.14 The key objectives of a Travel Plan relating to new development, are to ensure that

appropriate locations are chosen for development, minimising additional demand for

(car) travel and securing appropriate measures to maximise the opportunities for

travel by other means.

1.15 This Travel Plan for the Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre will help to maximise the

opportunities to travel by modes other than the car with respect to staff and users

associated with the proposed development.

1.16 Ultimately, this Travel Plan will facilitate environmental benefits through:

§ the promotion of public transport, pedestrian and cycle links between the Leisure

Centre and local desirable destinations;

§ the promotion of car/lift sharing amongst staff;

§ improved modal choice to staff and users;

§ a reduction in car use, thereby minimising the traffic and environmental impacts

on the surrounding highway network and local communities;

§ improved quality in staff journey experience to and from work;

§ improved levels of personal fitness through the encouragement of walking and

cycling for local trips;

§ reduction in stress associated with congestion etc; and

§ compliance with local, regional, and national transport policy and best practice.

2.0 LOCAL HIGHWAY NETWORK – EXISTING CONDITIONS

Site Location and Description

2.1 Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre is located on the western side of the A5183

Holywell Hill, some 900 metres south of St. Albans city centre, and set within the

grounds of Verulamium Park. Refer to CEC Plan 2811/201 [Site Location Plan]

which illustrates the location of the site.

2.2 Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre currently comprises of a range of indoor facilities

including a swimming pool, gymnasium, dance studio, health suite, crèche, café and

personal training area.

2.3 ‘St. Albans Abbey’ Railway Station is located some 300 metres to the east of the site

on the opposite side of Holywell Hill whilst St. Albans Cathedral is located

approximately 600 metres to the north. Junction 1 of the M10 is located

approximately 1.4 kilometres (0.9 miles) to the south.

2.4 A number of other facilities are located within (and share access with) the

Westminster Lodge site including; the Abbey Theatre, the Sea Cadet Corps, and

Verulamium Park (comprising an athletics track, 9 hole golf course, tennis courts,

basketball court and ‘crazy golf’ course). Refer to CEC Plan 2811/202 [Existing Site

Layout] contained within Appendix 1.

Verulamium Park

2.5 Vehicular access into Westminster Lodge is from the A5183 Holywell Hill priority

junction as described below. Traffic entering the site is separated from traffic exiting

the site by means of a grass strip approximately 3 metres wide along the full length of

the internal access road. Both sides of the road are marked with double yellow lines

prohibiting vehicles from parking (Refer to Photograph 2.1 below).

Photograph 2.1 Access Road into Westminster Lodge from the A5183 Holywell Hill

2.6 Signage indicates pedestrian priority through the site. A two-metre wide footpath

(with street lighting) follows the alignment of the road, but is separated by an area of

grass with a line of trees and a ditch.

2.7 Approximately 130 metres along the road from Holywell Hill is the access to the

Abbey Theatre and car park (which is shared with the existing Leisure Centre). The

access road provides one-way access only and has a footway on the western side that

provides the most direct pedestrian route to the existing Leisure Centre from Holywell

Hill. Opposite this access point is a gated access to a field (Bell Meadow) used when

Verulamium Park hosts events such as Race for Life, funfairs and circuses.

2.8 Vehicles leaving the theatre must travel around the Leisure Centre located northwest

of the theatre complex. Vehicular egress is via the entrance/exit to the Leisure Centre

car park and sea cadets that is located 100 metres distant from the theatre access.

2.9 The access road continues west from this point leading to the athletics track and an

additional car park for the existing Leisure Centre. The track thereafter leads to the

footpath network of Verulamium Park.

Local Highway Network

2.10 The site offers good access to both the local and strategic highway network, with the

A5813 Holywell Hill providing access to both St. Albans city centre, and the M10 at

Junction 1. In addition, the A1081 London Road provides convenient access to the

A4104 Northern Orbital Road, which in turn facilitates access to Junction 3 of the A1

(M) at Hatfield.

2.11 The most significant local highways in the vicinity of the site include Holywell Hill,

London Road, St Stephen’s Hill, King Harry Lane, and High Street / Verulam Road,

and these are described in the following paragraphs. Refer to CEC Plan 2811/201,

which illustrates the local highway network in the vicinity of the site.

A5183 Holywell Hill

2.12 Holywell Hill forms a section of the A5183, which locally links the M10 at Junction 1

to the south of the site, with St. Albans city centre to the north. Beyond the city

centre it heads northwest as High Street, Verulam Road, Redbourne Road and then

Dunstable Road, before connecting with the M1 at Junction 9.

2.13 The section known as Holywell Hill extends between the city centre (from its signal

controlled junction with the A1081 London Road), and its roundabout junction with

St. Stephens Hill / Griffiths Hill, passing along the site frontage between these two

points.

2.14 It is a single carriageway road with a footway and street lighting provided on both

sides. Its width in the vicinity of the site varies from approximately 18.0 metres (near

its junction with the Westminster Lodge access) and 7.5 metres (as it approaches the

city centre). See Photograph 2.2 below showing Holywell Hill in the vicinity of

Westminster Lodge.

A5183 St. Stephens Hill

2.18 The A5183 continues south beyond the site where it is known as St. Stephens Hill.

As with Holywell Hill, it is characterised by a footway on both sides and has a typical

carriageway width of some 7–8 metres. It extends south from its junction with

Griffiths Way / Holywell Hill for a distance of some 430 metres, before forming a

double mini roundabout junction with King Harry Lane / Watford Road. The A5183

heads southwest from this junction where it is known as Watling Road.

A5183 Watling Street

2.19 Watling Street is a single carriageway road and has residential properties (some with

frontage access) on both sides. It has a typical carriageway width of 6.0 metres and is

subject to a 30mph speed limit. It is oriented in a northwest-southeast direction and

connects with the M10 / A414 at its southeastern end. Watling Street provides access

to Marlborough College, as well as a number of residential side roads including

Robert Avenue, Tithe Barn Close, and Vesta Avenue.

2.20 The A5183 continues southeast beyond its junction with the M10 / A414, crossing

over the M25, via Radlett, before linking up with the A41 south of Elstree.

A5183 Verulam Road

2.21 Verulam Road provides access into St. Albans city centre from the west, connecting

with London Road / Chequer Street / Holywell Hill at its eastern end via a signal

controlled crossroads junction arrangement, and with Hemel Hempstead Road /

Redbourne Road / Batchwood Drive at its western end via a roundabout junction. It

has a typical carriageway width of 6.0 metres and has footway provision on both sides

along its length.

A1081 London Road

2.22 The section of the A1081 through St. Albans known as London Road provides access

into St. Albans city centre from the southeast. At its south-eastern end it connects

with the A414 Northern Orbital Road at a roundabout junction, beyond which it

continues south east to Junction 22 of the M25, providing a bypass for London

Colney.

2.23 At its northwestern end, it connects with Holywell Hill / Chequer Street / Verulam

Road at a signal controlled crossroads within the city centre. It is a single

carriageway road subject to a 30mph speed limit, and has footway provision on both

sides. London Road provides access to the Verulam Industrial Estate, as well as the

Verulam Golf Course.

King Harry Lane

2.24 King Harry Lane is located to the south of the site and is oriented in an east-west

direction. At its western end it connects with the A4147 Hemel Hempstead Road at a

roundabout junction, whilst at its eastern end it connects with the B4630 Watford

Road at a mini roundabout, some 500 metres south of Westminster Lodge.

____________________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________ Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) 13 - JANUARY 2010

2.25 It is a single carriageway road with a typical width of 7.0 metres and footways on

both sides. King Harry Lane provides access to several residential side roads, as well

as providing direct frontage access to a number of residential dwellings. Towards its

western end, it provides access to a Waitrose supermarket whilst at its eastern end it

provides access to St. Columba’s College. It also provides access to a large playing

field on its southern side.

Griffiths Way

2.26 Griffiths Way, which is located to the south of the site, is oriented in an east-west

direction and provides access to the Abbey View Retail Park, and a Sainsbury’s

supermarket. It is a single carriageway road with a typical width of 8.5 - 9.0 metres

with footways on both sides. At its western end, it connects with Holywell Hill / St.

Stephens Hill at a roundabout junction (Refer to Photograph 2.5 below) whilst at its

eastern end it terminates within the Abbey View Retail Park. Despite the proliferation

of car parks within the Retail Park, on-street parking is commonplace during the

week.

Existing Personal Injury Accidents (PIAs)

2.27 Personal Injury Accident (PIA) data has been obtained from Hertfordshire Highways

for the period 1st April 2004 to 31st March 2009 for the length of A5183 Holywell

Hill / St Stephens Hill between King Harry Lane and High Street. This includes the

following principle junctions:

§ Holywell Hill / Westminster Lodge site access / Prospect Road staggered priority

junction;

§ Holywell Hill / Griffiths Way / St. Stephens Hill roundabout junction;

§ St. Stephens Hill / Watling Street / King Harry Lane double mini roundabout; and

§ Holywell Hill / High Street / Chequer Street / London Road signal junction.

2.28 The type, location and severity of accidents are shown on the Accident Plan contained

within Appendix 2. The accident records have been examined for accident factors,

trends and groups, to identify for example, a regular type of accident for one type of

road user. The details of the PIAs are summarised below in Table 2.1.

2.29 A total of 53 accidents were recorded of which 43 were classified as 'slight', 9 as

'serious' and 1 as 'fatal'. Forty-six accidents occurred along the length of the A5183 in

the study area with 37 of these occurring at or on the approach to the many junctions.

Most of the side roads serve residential areas with the principle junctions listed in

paragraph 2.27 leading to more locally strategic routes or facilities such as the St.

Albans Abbey railway station, the industrial area and supermarket off Griffiths Way

and the Cathedral and facilities at Westminster Lodge and Verulamium Park.

2.30 The highest number of accidents at any one junction occurred at the London Road /

Chequer Street / High Street crossroads (7), Prospect Road (7), Belmont Hill (5) and

the Westminster Lodge access (4). All of these accidents were of a 'slight' severity,

with the exception of one at Belmont Hill and two at Prospect Road. Fewer accidents

occurred along the section of the A5183 know as St. Stephen's Hill, with no more than

one accident at any one particular location.

2.31 Thirty-two of the 43 accidents involved vulnerable road users, the majority of which

were pedestrians (14), followed by motorcyclists (10) and cyclists (8). The highest

number of accidents through the period assessed occurred in 2007 (16) with fewer

accidents occurring in 2004 (4) albeit that this was not a full calendar year (from

April). Fewer accidents occurred following the peak in 2007 with 10 in 2008, and

should 2009 continue at the same rate as the first three months of the year, then eight

could be expected. No particular trend is therefore evident over time.

___________________________________________________________________________ Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) 16 - JANUARY 2010

2.32 Six of the accidents at the cluster located at the crossroads between the A5183

Holywell Road / London Road / High Street / Chequer Street involved pedestrians,

where pedestrian crossing facilities already exist. However, one of the incidents

involved an intoxicated individual and another pedestrian fell after becoming ill.

Other causations included a manoeuvring error by a left hand drive HGV, a

motorcycle fleeing a police vehicle and poor driver behaviour by a moped rider.

2.33 The junction is busy and there is limited space available due to adjacent buildings.

However, given that there are already pedestrian crossing facilities in place and that

some of the other accident causes are somewhat unusual, it is concluded that there is

not a road safety issue at this location that can be addressed by better highway design.

2.34 Concentrating on the 11 accidents in the vicinity of the staggered crossroads with the

Westminster Lodge access and Prospect Road, most occurred in wet or frosty

conditions and only two occurred during either the morning or evening peak hours. Of

the accidents occurring at the staggered junction, only four occurred at the

Westminster Lodge access. Two of the accidents were considered 'serious' and

occurred at and just northwest of Prospect Road.

2.35 In considering the causes of these accidents, it is clear that driver error was

responsible for most of the accidents at this location and throughout the study area.

At the staggered crossroads, most accidents involved vehicles turning across the paths

of vehicles travelling along Holywell Hill. However, some accidents were caused by

somewhat unusual circumstances (including one ‘serious’ accident) such as a vehicle

swerving to avoid a fox and a driver 'blacking out'.

2.36 It is possible that the central reserve at the staggered crossroads is contributing to

some of the turning manoeuvre accidents. This could potentially be improved

through measures such as high visibility signage and coloured anti-skid surfacing, as

well as by raising the canopy of the trees in order to improve visibility and light

conditions for all road users.

2.37 It is concluded that there is no particular highway safety problem within the study

area that will require mitigation as part of this development. However, it may be

beneficial to provide some minor improvements at the Westminster Lodge / Prospect

Road staggered crossroads such as those listed below, and it is proposed that these

will be funded by the development:

§ high visibility signage;

§ anti-skid surfacing on Holywell Hill junction approaches; and

§ raising of tree canopies (subject to the approval of the Local Planning Authority’s

Arboricultural Officer).

2.38 The above improvements will improve the safety of vulnerable road users

(pedestrians and cyclists) by providing a safer local environment.

3.0 PLANNING AND POLICY CONTEXT

Introduction

3.1 This section of the study presents an appraisal of the relevant planning and policy

documents at national, regional and local levels.

National Planning Policy

Transport White Paper – 'The Future of Transport: A Network for 2030'

3.2 The Transport White Paper, published in 2004, sets out factors that will shape

transport networks over the next thirty years. An important part of the Government's

strategy is to manage the growing demand to travel, but at the same time to increase

capacity in more appropriate modes. In particular, the Government aims to provide

journey choice by public transport as well as to increase walking and cycling, making

it a more convenient, attractive and realistic choice for many more short journeys.

Planning Policy Statement 1: Delivering Sustainable Development

3.3 Planning Policy Statement (PPS) 1 sets out the overarching planning policies on the

delivery of sustainable development through the planning system. It notes that good

design is the key element in achieving sustainable development and should contribute

positively to making places better for people.

3.4 One of the general aims of planning policy should be to promote communities which

are inclusive, healthy, safe and crime free. This can be helped by improved access to

leisure, community facilities, open space, sport and recreation by being located where

everyone can access services or facilities on foot, bicycle or public transport rather

than rely on access by car. Developments that attract a large number of people should

be focused in existing centres to promote their vitality and viability, social inclusion

and more sustainable patterns of development.

Planning Policy Guidance 13: Transport

3.5 Government guidance is also contained in Planning Policy Guidance (PPG) 13. The

objectives of PPG13 (March 2001) are to 'integrate planning and transport at the

national, regional and local level to:

§ promote more sustainable transport choices…;

§ promote accessibility to jobs, shopping, leisure facilities and services by public

transport, walking and cycling; and

§ reduce the need to travel, especially by car'.

3.6 PPG13 states that “walking is the most important mode of travel at the local level and

offers the greatest potential to replace short car trips, particularly under 2 kilometres”

as well as forming part of longer journeys by public transport and car. New

developments should therefore exploit the potential of walking to substitute for

journeys by car through their location and design.

3.7 Similarly, it states cycling “has potential to substitute for short car trips, particularly

those under 5 kilometres”. Cycling as a mode of transport should therefore “influence

the design, location and access arrangements of development” including the

“provision of convenient, safe and secure cycle parking and changing facilities”.

3.8 It suggests that tools such as parking policies alongside other planning and transport

measures should be used to promote sustainable transport choices. Evaluation of

accessibility by each mode should take account of journey times, public transport

frequency, quality and safety. To improve accessibility to all, it requires that the

needs of disabled people as pedestrians, public transport users and motorists are taken

into account. Whilst overall parking provision is proposed at a sensible (and

sustainable) level, Section 4.0 of this report demonstrates that disabled parking has

been increased over that presently provided as a result of established demand.

3.9 The policy document considers that leisure facilities that are likely to generate

significant amounts of travel should include a Travel Plan.

3.10 PPG13 provides maximum parking standards for D2 use classes (assembly and

leisure) of 1 space per 22m2 gross floor area (GFA) for developments whose GFA

exceeds 1000m2. National standards for disabled parking facilities are set out in the

Department for Transport's (DfT) Transport Advisory Leaflet 05/95, where this

specifies that for car parks with more than 200 spaces there should be 4 disabled

spaces plus 4% of the total capacity of the car park. Existing and proposed levels of

parking provision are discussed in more detail within Section 4.0.

Planning Policy Guidance 17: Planning for Sport, Open Space & Recreation

3.11 Planning Policy Guidance (PPG) 17 gives guidance on proposals for new sporting,

open space and recreation facilities and states that open spaces, sport and recreation

all underpin peoples' quality of life. It identifies a number of general principles

including:

§ “promote accessibility by walking, cycling and public transport, and ensure that

facilities are accessible for people with disabilities;

§ locate more intensive recreational uses in sites where they can contribute to town

centre vitality and viability;

§ meet the regeneration needs of areas, using brownfield in preference to

greenfield sites”.

3.12 Paragraph 21 of PPG17 states that planning permission for mixed-use sport,

recreation and leisure facilities should only be granted where they are to be located in

highly accessible locations or adjacent to town centres, or in district or neighbourhood

centres. Westminster Lodge meets this criterion.

Sub-Regional Policy

The East of England Plan Regional Spatial Strategy 2021

3.13 The East of England Plan supersedes an initial Regional Spatial Strategy that

comprised the former Regional Planning Guidance for East Anglia.

3.14 In order to reduce the region’s impact on, and exposure to, climate change:

§ “development should be located so as to reduce the need to travel;

§ a major shift away from car use towards public transport, walking and cycling

should be effected”.

3.15 In order to realise the economic potential of the region and its people:

§ “the plan aims to improve the alignment between the locations of workplaces and

homes;

§ and ensure adequate and sustainable transport infrastructure”.

3.16 In order to improve the quality of life for people in the region and promote social

cohesion:

§ “access should be improved to work, services and other facilities”.

3.17 The Plan's Regional Transport Strategy (RTS) provides a regional framework for the

delivery of transport investment and policy priorities to support the aims of the spatial

strategy. Key to this is reducing dependence on car travel while improving the scope

of alternatives. Parking is identified as one tool to reduce dependence on car travel. It

suggests that the standards specified in PPG13 should be treated as maxima and

encourages local authorities to adopt more rigorous standards. This approach has

been adopted for the Westminster Lodge proposals.

Local Planning Policy

Hertfordshire Structure Plan 1991-2011

3.18 The County's Structure Plan sets the broad strategic direction for the planning of land

use and development having regard to national and regional policies, although,

Structure Plans are being replaced by Regional Spatial Strategies. At the strategic

level, Hertfordshire is now covered by the policies of The East of England Plan, as

detailed above. Only a few of the Structure Plan policies are currently 'saved' until

they too are replaced.

3.19 The Structure Plan’s vision as regards transport, includes the following:

§ the close proximity of everyday needs and facilities would reduce reliance on the

private car;

§ well maintained and diverse open spaces would be within easy reach of most

people;

§ an integrated transport system would be dominated by effective, viable and

attractive public transport options;

§ roads would not be congested and road traffic pollution would be substantially

reduced.

Hertfordshire Local Transport Plan (LTP) 2006/07 – 2010/11

3.20 The Hertfordshire Local Transport Plan focuses on the County’s following shared

priorities:

§ tackling congestion;

§ delivering accessibility;

§ providing safer roads;

§ improving air quality;

§ and improving the quality of life for residents .

TRAVEL PLAN PROPOSED REDEVELOPMENT OF WESTMINSTER LODGE AT HOLYWELL HILL, ST. ALBANS

____________________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________ Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) 23 - JANUARY 2010

3.21 The Local Transport Plan attempts to tackle transport problems that affect

Hertfordshire. It introduces the concept of accessibility planning to help overcome

problems of getting to key services. Given their contribution to a healthy lifestyle and

community cohesion, leisure and recreational facilities could justifiably be considered

as key services.

3.22 The Local Transport Plan recognises that the County suffers from high levels of

traffic congestion and identifies some reasons for this. Some of these reasons are set

out below:

§ More than one million residents [are] spread amongst a dozen medium sized

towns and many more smaller towns;

§ neighbouring London attracts large commuting flows;

§ rail services do not provide for east-west movements;

§ the county sits astride three important national routes (M25, M1 and A1(M));

§ high car ownership.

3.23 The Local Transport Plan’s vision is “to provide a safe, efficient and affordable

transport system that allows access for all to everyday facilities…”. It identifies

modal choice and making best use of the existing network as key to this vision.

City and District of St. Albans District Local Plan Review November 1994 (Saved

Policies)

3.24 The stated challenge of the Local Plan is to facilitate appropriate development whilst

protecting the environment by means of positive land-use control. A new indoor sport

facility is highlighted on the Local Plan’s proposals map at Westminster Lodge.

3.25 With regards to transport, Policy 35 of the Local Plan describes how the Council will

seek highway improvements or contributions to highway or public transport

improvements from developers whose proposals would otherwise result in detrimental

highway conditions.

___________________________________________________________________________ Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) 24 - JANUARY 2010

3.26 Policy 39 sets out the Council's car parking standards. No standard exists specifically

in relation to leisure use. Instead, the requirement is that “applicants must

demonstrate that sufficient parking is proposed for the long term needs of the

development”. However, maximum parking standards are set out within the St.

Albans City and District Revised Parking Policies and Standards and are discussed in

more detail below.

Emerging Core Strategy

3.27 Public consultation on some of the issues that are likely to affect the district of St.

Albans is currently being held that will feed into development of the Authority’s Core

Strategy. The Core Strategy will be at the heart of the Authority’s Local

Development Framework, which in time, will replace the Local Plan.

3.28 As with all policy documents, the promotion of alternatives to car use will be key.

More recreational opportunities are highlighted in the Council’s consultation material

along with other provisions to improve quality of life. The proposed new Leisure

Centre at Westminster Lodge is identified, in order to support healthier communities.

St. Albans Urban Transport Plan 2008

3.29 Urban Transport Plans (UTPs) have been specifically developed for towns and cities

in Hertfordshire in order to identify local problems and propose solutions.

3.30 St. Peter’s Street in the city centre is identified as a road which could be closed to car

and motorcycle traffic between Hatfield Road and Victoria Street. This could

potentially improve the operation of the High Street / Chequer Street / London Road /

Holywell Hill crossroads to the north of the Westminster Lodge site.

3.31 The UTP also describes how widening of the M1 and M25 in the vicinity of St.

Albans is intended to reduce congestion on the strategic highway network in this area

and thus relieve congestion in St. Albans through the removal of diverted traffic.

TRAVEL PLAN PROPOSED REDEVELOPMENT OF WESTMINSTER LODGE AT HOLYWELL HILL, ST. ALBANS

____________________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________ Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) 25 - JANUARY 2010

3.32 The UTP identifies a range of measures to combat the congestion problems described

in the document. These measures include:

§ School and workplace travel planning;

§ personalised travel planning;

§ residential travel planning;

§ footway and cycleway improvements on a number of routes, including the Alban

Way which leads close to the Westminster Lodge site;

§ introduction of covered cycle parking at Westminster Lodge and other key leisure

facilities;

§ travel planning websites and mapping;

§ travel information; branding and promotion of public transport services;

§ Holywell Hill feasibility testing of schemes such as the review of signal

coordination and re-phasing of signals; and the removal of pay and display bays

where appropriate and beneficial;

§ Hatfield Road Bus Corridor;

§ signage and parking strategies

St. Albans City and District Revised Parking Policies and Standards, January 2002

3.33 St. Albans’ parking standards reflect those of PPG13 in that they are a maximum

standard set at 1 space per 22m2 for D2 (leisure) use classes. Disabled parking

standards also reflect national policy set out in DfT’s TAL 05/95, in that they are a

minimum standard and are additional to the standard car parking space provision. For

leisure use, they are set out as 4 disabled spaces plus 4% of total car parking capacity

where that capacity is greater than 200 spaces.

3.34 Whilst St. Albans’ standards are maxima, the proposed parking level should be

appropriate for the development up to the appropriate maximum provision. The

Council defines two zones for the district, in which Westminster Lodge falls into

Zone 1. The actual parking provision should therefore fall within the range of 75% to

100% of the maximum standard.

3.34 Contd.

Where provision is below this range, it is understood that the Council may request

commuted sums for investment in sustainable transport measures.

3.35 Cycle parking standards are also set out within this document. The standards are set

out so as to facilitate Hertfordshire County Council’s target of 10% of employees

cycling to work as laid out within Supplementary Planning Guidance. St. Albans

City & District Council recognises that the 10% target is, however, ambitious and so

requires at least 50% of the standard to be met. The standard for leisure uses is as

follows:

§ 1 short term space per 25m²; plus

§ 1 long term space per 10 full-time employees;

Hertfordshire Carbon Management Programme; Strategy Implementation Plan

(SIP), May 2008

3.36 This Travel Plan will operate within the context of Hertfordshire County Council’s

carbon reduction plans, set out within the above document. The Council has set itself

a target to make a 25% reduction (from 2006 levels) in carbon dioxide emissions

arising from its property, schools, business mileage and street lighting by 2013.

St. Albans City and District Council Carbon Management Programme: The

Strategy and implementation Plan (SIP)

3.37 The District Council also has its own SIP, which adopts the same target to reduce its

carbon dioxide emissions by 25% by 2013 (from 2006 levels). The SIP was

developed through the District's participation in the Carbon Trust Local Authority

Carbon Management Plan.

Nottingham Declaration Action Plan 2008 - 2025

3.38 The District Council signed up to this national pledge to systematically tackle climate

change within Local Authorities and their areas of responsibility.

Theme 2 of the District's Nottingham Declaration Action Plan describes measures the

Council will take with regard to Sustainable Travel. These include the community

based car sharing website (project ST1); a quality bus partnership agreement (project

ST4); a cycling strategy (project ST8); and a walking strategy (project ST9), that form

part of the St. Albans Green Travel Plan (project ST12).

3.39 The Cycling Strategy and Walking Strategy have the following common objectives:

§ improve facilities for each mode;

§ promote a walking and cycle friendly culture;

§ integrate walking and cycling into relevant policy initiatives and programmes; and

§ increase walking and cycling

3.40 Additionally, the cycling strategy aims to improve cycle safety and security.

The Hertfordshire Sustainable Community Strategy. Hertfordshire 2021: A

Brighter Future

3.41 The Hertfordshire Sustainable Community Strategy sets out an ambitious agenda for

improvement over forthcoming years. It identifies that encouraging people to be

active is an important way to prevent illness in later life. The proposed new Leisure

Centre at Westminster Lodge will clearly play a role in the strategy’s objectives to:

§ improve the health and wellbeing of all Hertfordshire residents in the 20% most

deprived wards;

§ reduce the mortality rate difference between deprived and non-deprived areas.

3.42 The Hertfordshire Sustainable Community Strategy recognises the link that transport

and access play in achieving sustainability aims. It provides an appraisal of the

County’s high levels of car ownership and congestion, but highlights the importance

of maintaining and improving access to facilities.

‘Improving access to the countryside, open spaces and cultural activities for

recreation and health’ is among the Strategy’s long-term objectives to 2021 along

with improving quality and use of public transport and reducing the need to travel. A

short-term aim is to ‘promote walking, cycling and other sustainable transport

through travel plans’.

St. Albans City Vision

3.43 The St. Albans City Vision aims to develop a strategy that guides development over

the next twenty years. Reducing the carbon footprint of the city and providing new

facilities to meet the expectations of residents, businesses and visitors, are identified

as important challenges. A city for cyclists, pedestrians and buses won public support

following an exhibition held as part of the consultation exercise.

3.44 With regard to transport, the Vision concentrates on the city centre in particular and

examines several pedestrianisation schemes. However, walking links from the centre

to Verulamium Park and Westminster Lodge have been attributed high priority for

their existing and potential future facilities and open space. Users of Westminster

Lodge and Verulamium Park would benefit from proposed new or improved bus links

between ‘St. Albans Abbey’ railway station and the city centre.

3.45 The Vision's objectives with respect to transport include the following:

§ addressing congestion;

§ developing walking and cycling infrastructure so that these modes become the

'mainstream';

§ improving bus provision; and

§ encouraging sustainable car use

Green Travel Plan Guidance for Hertfordshire

3.46 This Travel Plan has been written in accordance with Green Travel Plan Guidance

for Hertfordshire (hereafter referred to as the 'Guidance') produced by Hertfordshire

County Council. This guidance has been written within the framework of Planning

Policy Guidance 13: Transport, Hertfordshire's Local Transport Plan I, and in

particular policy 25 of the Hertfordshire Structure Plan (see above).

3.47 The overall requirement of a Green Travel Plan (GTP), it says, is “adoption of a

package of measures that will lead to agreed targets, performance measures and

monitoring regime in respect of promoting more sustainable modes prior to the

commencement of the development”. The targets should be aimed at increasing the

share of trips to the site by modes other than the car, or reducing single car occupancy

trips. Evidence of progress toward the targets is required through monitoring and the

GTP reviewed as appropriate.

3.48 This Travel Plan, along with the application's Transport Assessment demonstrates that

the location of the development is such that it minimises the distances that the Leisure

Centre's employees and users are required to travel, as deemed necessary by the

Guidance.

3.49 The Guidance stipulates that a GTP will be required for new D2 use classes including

leisure that would have a gross floor area greater than 1,000m2. The detailed GTP

would be secured through a Section 106 agreement with the local planning and

highway authorities prior to occupation of the development.

Standards and Guidelines

3.50 This Travel Plan has made reference to the following national standards and

guidelines:

4.0 DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS

4.1 Westminster Lodge is the principle Local Authority Leisure Centre in the city of St.

Albans. The only other formal Local Authority leisure facility in the city is the

Batchwood Golf and Tennis Centre located on the outskirts of St. Albans

approximately 2km from the city centre.

4.2 Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre is managed by Harper Fitness which is the fitness

brand for Leisure Connection with whom St. Albans City and District Council is

working in partnership. Harper Fitness manages Leisure Centres across the country

and so Westminster Lodge benefits from its branding and experience. Of particular

help in encouraging new users and providing information to existing users is the

Harper Fitness corporate website, which can be accessed via

www.leisureinstalbans.co.uk to which there is a link from the District's website.

4.3 The site currently comprises of the existing Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre, the

Abbey Theatre, a facility for the St. Albans Sea Cadets, and a facility for the St.

Albans detachment of the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Army Cadet Force as well

as car parking facilities and access to the numerous sporting facilities that make up

Verulamium Park. The existing Leisure Centre comprises of the following facilities:

§ 33m Swimming Pool and flumes;

§ Learner Pool;

§ 41 Station Gym;

§ Dance Studio with 36 classes per week;

§ Health Suite (with Sauna, Steam Room and Spa);

§ Crèche;

§ Café; and

§ Personal Training.

4.4 The existing opening times of the Leisure Centre are as shown below, with each of the

individual facilities operating their own timetables within these periods:

§ Monday to Friday 06:30-22:00;

§ Saturday 07:00-18:00; and

§ Sunday 08:00-22:00

There is also a grounds maintenance depot on the Westminster Lodge site.

Proposed Facilities

4.5 The proposed development represents renewed investment in leisure facilities within

the St. Albans district, which was identified as part of the Authority's Sport and

Recreation Facility Strategy. The proposed new facility at Westminster Lodge and a

possible additional facility at the town of London Colney were the preferences of a

Cabinet meeting held in late 2006.

4.6 The development proposals at Westminster Lodge comprise the following key

elements (refer to S&P Plan 3033 (08) 012 [Proposed Site Plan] contained within

Appendix 1):

§ construction of a new Leisure Centre on the site of the eastern car park (adjacent to

Holywell Hill);

§ demolition of the existing Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre;

§ provision of a replacement car park on the existing Leisure Centre site; and

§ provision of a new service road for the Leisure Centre and Abbey Theatre along the

southern boundary of the site;

4.7 This Travel Plan considers the proposed redevelopment of Westminster Lodge

Leisure Centre, where the following facilities are proposed:

§ 25m, 8 lane Competition Pool (with spectator seating for 250 people);

§ Learner Pool;

§ 200 Station Gym;

§ Two exercise studios and one spinning studio;

§ Private Consulting Rooms (2 No.);

§ Exercise Studios;

§ Health Suite (comprising 9 spa rooms);

§ Crèche;

§ Café;

§ Personal Training;

§ Climbing Wall;

§ Youth Activity Provision;

§ Soft Play Area; and

§ Four Court Sports Hall..

4.8 The above facilities mix is proposed following comprehensive consultation with both

key stakeholders and the general public.

4.9 The other existing facilities within the site that do not form part of Westminster Lodge

(such as the golf course, athletics track etc.) are to remain.

Existing Car Parking

4.10 St. Albans City and District Council manages the current 304 parking spaces available

within the Westminster Lodge site as a whole, of which 13 are allocated for disabled

use. The car park is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with charges applicable

between 07:30 and 18:30 every day as shown below:

§ Up to three hours free (ticket must be obtained);

§ Between 3 and 5 hours £1.00;

§ Over 5 hours £3.00;

4.10 Contd.

§ Seven day ticket £12.00; and

§ Coaches £14.00 per visit (up to one hour free).

4.11 Although there are officially 304 parking spaces available, it has been acknowledged

by St. Albans City and District Council that in reality the actual operational capacity

of the car parks is circa 270 spaces due to the lack of formal parking bays leading to

inefficient parking.

4.12 From meetings held with representatives of St. Albans City and District Council it is

understood that the peak times for use of the car park by coaches is associated with

the nearby St. Columba's College drop off/pick up times when up to 6 coaches park

up. During holiday periods, we understand there can typically be up to three tourist

coaches at any one time.

4.13 In addition, CEC understands that the car parks are also used as overspill parking

from nearby employment and retail premises and ‘St. Albans Abbey’ railway station.

The railway station itself has only twenty car parking spaces including one disabled

space (refer to Photograph 4.1 below). A number of charging regimes are available

based on the duration of stay with the daily rate being £2.50, i.e. cheaper than the

Westminster Lodge car park.

Photograph 4.1 Car Parking at St. Albans Abbey Railway Station

St. Albans city centre Controlled Parking Scheme

4.14 The southern extent of the St. Albans city centre Controlled Parking Scheme is

defined by the River Ver that runs east-west and intersects Holywell Hill. The

restrictions imposed by the scheme (permits and vouchers, together with time

restrictions) do not therefore apply to Holywell Hill south of this point (approximately

90m north if the Westminster Lodge access) where on-road parking is unrestricted.

Proposed Car Parking

Construction Phase

4.15 During construction of the new Leisure Centre, the existing Leisure Centre will

remain operational. As such, a temporary car park for 62 cars (plus 5 disabled

parking bays) is proposed on and adjacent to the aforementioned ‘depot’ site (refer to

S&P Plan No. 3033 (08) 010, Appendix 1. This temporary car park will remain in

operation from the commencement of construction of the new Leisure Centre, until

the existing Leisure Centre has been demolished and the new car parks on the existing

Leisure Centre site have been constructed.

TRAVEL PLAN PROPOSED REDEVELOPMENT OF WESTMINSTER LODGE AT HOLYWELL HILL, ST. ALBANS

____________________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________ Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) 36 - JANUARY 2010

4.16 As previously stated in Paragraph 4.11, the lack of formal parking bays in some of the

car parks, is leading to inefficient parking. As such, it is proposed to sweep the car

parks which remain and introduce bay marking as shown on S&P Plan No. 3033 (08)

010, Appendix 1. This will result in a total parking provision of 265 car parking

spaces (including 9 disabled) during the construction period. This provision is

therefore almost identical to that presently available, i.e. there will be nil-detriment to

available parking during the construction phase.

Following Leisure Centre Completion

4.17 Once the new Leisure Centre has been constructed and the existing building has been

demolished, there will be a permanent car parking provision of some 328 car parking

spaces (including 24 disabled spaces). This represents an increase of some 11

disabled car parking spaces, when compared to the current official capacity, and only

13 standard spaces.

4.18 The parking requirements set out within Section 3.0 of this Travel Plan, result in the

following required levels of maximum parking provision:

§ Car Parking at a maximum of 1 space per 22m² GFA

= maximum of 346 spaces [for Leisure Centre users] (328 proposed for whole site

including disabled)

§ Disabled Parking at a rate of 4 spaces plus 4% of the total capacity

= 17 (24 Proposed)

4.19 The additional 7 disabled parking spaces that are proposed over and above the

required 17 No., will be kept available for ‘disabled users only‘ between 9am and

noon on Saturdays, whilst also being available as child and parent spaces at all other

times. This additional disabled parking provision reflects the established demand by

the Salmon Club on Saturday mornings.

___________________________________________________________________________ Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) 37 - JANUARY 2010

4.20 In order to discourage use of the car parks by off-site visitors (i.e. users of the nearby

employment areas and railway station) a parking charge regime could be implemented

that favours on-site users. An example of this might be to impose charges from say

09:45 each day in order to benefit the likes of those who wish to use the Leisure

Centre before work, yet discourage all-day commuter use and employees from other

sites. For such a system to work, the purchase of a ticket before say 9am would need

to be somehow prevented.

4.21 Such a charging regime could be investigated in consultation with the Local

Authority, but it is acknowledged that unwanted effects such as displacement parking

onto surrounding streets may increase. We also understand that a seasonal parking

strategy is being considered.

Parking Accumulation

4.22 Tables 4.1 and 4.2 below show the parking accumulation based on the recorded flows

into and out of the site (on the busiest recorded weekday and Saturday) and the

predicted flows based on TRICS for the additional 4,043m² GFA of the Leisure

Centre (proposed 7,613m² GFA - existing 3,570m² GFA).

4.23 The tables present a basic analysis of peak parking demand, where the difference in

arrivals and departures is calculated for each one hour period. In reality, at busy times

there is greater ‘churn’ meaning spaces become more readily available throughout

each hourly period. Notwithstanding, the analysis gives an indication of the adequacy

of the proposed car park provision.

4.24 Tables 4.1 and 4.2 above show that on an average weekday, the maximum parking

demand will be some 260 vehicles, whilst the maximum parking demand on a

Saturday would be some 342. Based on the above parking accumulations, this will

result in a minimum of 68 free parking spaces during the weekday and an under

provision of say 14 parking spaces on a Saturday.

4.25 However, it should be noted that the arrivals and departures based on TRICS do not

take account of any transfer of trips to more sustainable modes. Based on the

measures outlined within this Travel Plan, it is likely that the predicted parking

accumulation would actually be lower than that shown within Tables 4.1 and 4.2.

Additionally, a separate car park (St. Michaels Street car park) is also available on the

opposite side of Verulamium Park, where users of the Park can leave their vehicles, if

this Westminster Lodge car park area is close to capacity.

4.26 Table 4.3 shows observed levels of parking on various days and times, where the

observed levels of parking closely relate to the recorded ATC flows for the period

11am to 4pm.

Cycle Parking

4.27 The cycle parking requirements set out within Section 3.0 are as follows:

§ 1 space per 25 m² GFA and 1 space per 10 F/T Staff = 305 + 41 (94 Proposed)

4.28 However, the standards outline that, initially, some 50% of the above requirement can

be provided, with supplementary cycle parking being provided if demand dictates.

This lower requirement would be 154 spaces, which CEC still consider to be high

given that there is presently no cycle parking provided.

4.29 It is therefore proposed that some 94 cycle parking spaces are provided, of which at

least half will be covered. Parking will be provided adjacent to the Leisure Centre

entrance, as well as elsewhere throughout the site, to benefit other users, such as those

visiting the Abbey Theatre or Verulamium Park.

1 37 F/T staff / 10 = 3.7 ≈ 4

5.0 ACCESSIBILITY & SUSTAINABILITY

Introduction

5.1 This section presents an assessment of the transport accessibility of the site by

sustainable modes, including walking, cycling and public transport.

Walking

5.2 PPG 13 identifies that walking offers significant potential to replace short car trips,

particularly those less than 2 kilometres. CEC Plan 2811/203, which illustrates

0.5km, 1.0km, 1.5km and 2.0km radii centred on Westminster Lodge, indicates that a

significant proportion of the residential areas of St. Albans are accessible within this

distance, including both St. Albans Abbey, and St. Albans railway stations.

5.3 The site’s relatively central location just south of St. Albans city centre offers

excellent accessibility on foot, with a network of footways and footpaths providing

convenient and attractive linkages between the site and surrounding area. Several

footpaths, including the Hertfordshire Way traverse the Verulamium Park site,

passing in close proximity to Westminster Lodge as indicated on CEC Plan 2811/205.

5.4 Additionally, the Hertfordshire Way links up with the Alban Way, which provides a

dedicated off-road pedestrian/cycle route between the towns of St. Albans and

Hatfield, following the alignment of a disused railway line.

5.5 Other pedestrian facilities in the vicinity of the site include a Pelican crossing on

Holywell Hill adjacent to the site access. Another pelican crossing is provided further

north on Holywell Hill, immediately north of Albert Street. It is acknowledged that

the gradient of Holywell Hill may deter some people from walking or cycling to/from

the Westminster Lodge site.

5.6 Pedestrian signage located on Holywell Hill between the Westminster Lodge access

and Prospect Road (see Photograph 5.1 below) indicates that the city centre is an 11

minute walk, the main railway station a 25 minute walk and St. Albans Abbey railway

station a 1 minute walk. Westminster Lodge is shown as being a 6 minute walk from

this location. These timings would appear to reflect local topography.

Photograph 5.1 Pedestrian Signage on Holywell Hill

Cycling

5.7 The site also benefits from good accessibility by bicycle, with the Alban Way

providing a dedicated off-road cycle connection in the vicinity of the site. As

previously mentioned, the Alban Way provides a traffic-free link between St. Albans

and Hatfield and is an important commuter, leisure and safe routes to school

sustainable transport link.

5.8 There is an additional section of on-road cycle route which links the end of the Alban

Way with St. Albans Abbey railway station. Refer to CEC Plan 2811/204, which

illustrates the route of the Alban Way within St. Albans.

5.9 PPG13 identifies that cycling offers the potential to replace car trips less than 5

kilometres in length. A 5km radius from Westminster Lodge is indicated on CEC

Plan 2811/205 and demonstrates that in addition to the whole of St. Albans, the

settlements of How Wood, Chiswell Green and London Colney are also accessible

within this distance. The site is therefore considered to offer good accessibility by

bicycle.

Bus

5.10 As with the pedestrian and cycle accessibility, the site benefits from excellent bus

accessibility, with regular and frequent buses serving Holywell Hill, with both north

and south bound bus stops being located adjacent to the Westminster Lodge site

access (see Photograph 5.2 below). Passenger facilities at these stops comprise of a

shelter with up to date timetable information. Free-flow traffic conditions are

maintained when buses are stopped due to the width of Holywell Hill and dedicated

widening on Holywell Hill southbound.

5.12 Table 5.1 above indicates that Westminster Lodge offers excellent accessibility by

public transport, with regular and frequent buses linking the site with neighbouring

towns including Hatfield, Borehamwood, Rickmansworth and Watford, as well as St.

Albans city centre, St. Albans railway station, and residential areas of St. Albans.

Given the excellent level of bus service provision along Holywell Hill, there is clearly

potential for a significant proportion of trips to Westminster Lodge to be made by bus.

5.13 We understand that improved bus services will soon be provided along Holywell Hill

as a result of S106 monies received from the new Butterfly World tourist attraction.

These improved bus services will obviously benefit staff and users associated with the

proposed Leisure Centre.

Rail

5.14 There are two railway stations within comfortable walking distance of the site; these

being St. Albans Abbey located some 300 metres to the east, and St. Albans, located

within the city centre. St. Albans Abbey is a single track railway line and is the

terminus of the branch line from Watford Junction. St. Albans station is located on

the Midland Main Line between Luton Airport Parkway and Elstree & Borehamwood.

5.15 St. Albans Station benefited from a £225,000 investment early in 2009 when the

following improvements were made:

§ installation of CCTV;

§ installation of modern lighting;

§ installation of ticket vending machine;

§ new information display cases;

§ new signage;

§ more cycle storage;

§ new platform seating;

§ installation of fencing around perimeter of railway land;

§ new footway;

§ new car park markings; and

§ new variable height platform to help bridge the gap between trains and the

platform.

5.16 Further work is planned that includes the installation of real time information displays

and a telephone help point. Improvements such as these can only serve to encourage

more use of trains to the benefit of St. Albans and the Leisure Centre.

5.17 Both railway stations can be reached within a comfortable walking distance from

Westminster Lodge, and bus services along Holywell Hill also serve St. Albans

railway station. Tables 7.2 and 7.3 provide a summary of the rail services available

from both St. Albans Abbey railway station and St. Albans railway station

respectively.

5.18 Tables 5.2 and 5.3 below provide a summary of the rail services available from both

St. Albans Abbey railway station and St. Albans railway station respectively, whilst

5.19 The above tables demonstrate that St. Albans is very well served by rail services, with

regular and frequent connections available to neighbouring towns and cities, as well

as to other more local destinations on the Watford Junction – St. Albans Abbey

branch line.

5.20 Whilst it is not envisaged that on a day-to-day basis, staff or users would travel to

Westminster Lodge by train, it is conceivable that users may choose the train when

attending a competition or event, such as a swimming gala, for example. As such, rail

use will need to be promoted for such special events as part of any marketing

campaign.

Summary

5.21 Westminster Lodge is considered to offer excellent accessibility by sustainable modes

of transport, with a network of foot and cycleways facilitating convenient

pedestrian/cycle linkages to and from the surrounding area, and regular and frequent

public transport services (bus and rail) linking the site with neighbouring towns and

cities, as well with residential areas of St. Albans.

6.0 TRAVEL SURVEYS

6.1 The catchment of Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre for users of the facility has been

assessed by the National Benchmarking Service for Sports and Leisure Centres

undertaken by Sport England (July 2008). Its catchment is defined as the area within

which Westminster Lodge attracts more users than any other centre, ie. where

Westminster Lodge is the dominant supplier. It shows that it is used largely by

residents of the south and west of the city, and also villages to the west and north up

to the boundaries of the neighbouring towns of Harpenden and Hemel Hempstead.

6.2 Residents from outside this area could and do use the Westminster Lodge Leisure

Centre, but the centre is not the dominant supplier. It is clear from the appraisal

provided in this Travel Plan and the accompanying Transport Assessment that the

centre's location and the extra facilities proposed have the potential to attract residents

from elsewhere in the city of St. Albans who also live within a reasonable distance of

the site.

6.3 The National Benchmarking Service surveyed 364 Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre

users and found that the majority of people (62.5%) came to the centre 'straight from

home' with a significant proportion (32.5%) coming from work, school or college (a

linked trip).

6.4 Respondent's main mode of transport was by car or motorcycle (77.7%) while 15.7%

walked. Other modes of transport attracted less than a 5% share each. Few people

travelled longer than 30 minutes to get to the Leisure Centre with most having

between a 5 and 15 minute journey (56.8%). This provides an indication of the

distance that people live from the centre, and it can be concluded therefore that most

users travel from within St. Albans and the surrounding area, as shown by the

catchment map of the Benchmarking Service.

____________________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________

Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) - 52 - JANUARY 2010

6.5 All but eight of those surveyed had been to the centre before, and 27.3% of users are

considered to use the centre regularly having answered that they had been to the

facility three or more times during the seven days prior to the survey. During the four

weeks prior to the survey 55.3% of users had been to the centre 1 to 5 times which is

considered to be relatively infrequent.

6.6 Given that it appears most users of the centre travel from within St. Albans or the

immediate surrounding areas, there is potential to transfer many of the current car

trips to more sustainable modes, particularly walking and cycling. However, a third

of trips to the centre were made as part of a linked trip, in which the main purpose of

the trip was for school, college or work. The decision about which mode of transport

to use for these trips would most likely be based on these main trip purposes and

destinations. The scope for changing the mode of travel for these users is therefore

limited. These users would benefit from a more holistically integrated public

transport system for the area.

7.0 TRAVEL PLAN PACKAGE OF MEASURES

7.1 This chapter identifies a range of suitable measures to encourage greater use of

sustainable modes of transport amongst staff and users and to generally help manage

the transport impacts associated with the proposals. Following receipt of planning

consent, the Leisure Centre operator will need to review and update this Travel Plan

prior to first occupation, for approval by St. Albans City and District Council. At that

stage, all of the measures identified within this section will need to be given further

consideration. Such measures include both on and off-site initiatives.

7.2 The success of this Travel Plan will be dependent on establishing a culture of

sustainable travel behaviour from the outset. The operator of the Leisure Centre and

the information provided to staff and users at the outset on taking occupation will

therefore play a key role in achieving the Travel Plan aspirations.

Measures to be adopted within the Travel Plan

7.3 Specific measures to be introduced as part of this Travel Plan are outlined within this

Section. Some of these measures will need to be reviewed following initial feedback

from staff and users once the new Leisure Centre is open to the general public. Some

measures will be more appropriate for particular staff and users than others. Some of

the more specific measures have been discussed with HCC’s Travel Planning Offier.

The Leisure Centre Actions & Expenditure

7.4 'Bulleted' items in bold italic discussed below identify those actions that the operator

of the leisure Centre will undertake as part of this Travel Plan.

Travel Plan Co-ordinator

7.5 A Travel Plan Co-ordinator (TPC) for the Leisure Centre will be appointed prior to

occupation of the new Leisure Centre. This role is likely to be undertaken on a part-

time basis by one of the Leisure Centre's employees who are based on site.

7.5 Contd.

§ The operator of the Leisure Centre will be required to notify HCC/SACDC as to who has been

appointed as the TPC, prior to occupation.

7.6 Notwithstanding the above, the Travel Plan actions will be delivered as a team effort,

with the TPC providing the central point of contact for staff, users, HCC, SACDC and

other outside parties. The TPC will be recognised as a 'champion' for the cause.

7.7 The TPC will ultimately report to the Manager of the Leisure Centre, but will also be

responsible for liaison with HCC, SACDC, public transport operators, users etc.

Travel Surveys

7.8 Individual Travel Surveys will be undertaken upon occupation of the Leisure Centre.

These will identify the staff and users' likely travel habits to and from the Leisure

Centre. Information sought will include where staff live and where users travel from

in order to visit the Leisure Centre, including whether the visit is part of a linked trip

to other facilities/attractions.

7.9 This information will be used by the TPC to undertake personal travel planning.

§ Personal Travel Planning: Staff and users will be informed of the suitable sustainable travel

choices available to them based on their likely trip origins identified in the Travel Survey

completed by the TPC at the time of occupation.

7.10 The Leisure Centre may employ the services of Cole Easdon Consultants (or other

consultant) to assist with this Personal Travel Planning advice. In addition, it is

anticipated that HCC's Travel Plan Team would offer support with this personal travel

planning if required and if available. Obviously, members of staff and the general

public may reserve the right to refuse such travel planning advice when offered.

Alternatively, it is possible that the sustainable travel marketing material will provide

sufficient information for staff and users to make their own informed decision.

Marketing & Promotion

7.11 It is essential that this Travel Plan is effectively marketed and promoted to potential

staff and users of the Leisure Centre. This promotion of the Travel Plan will initially

be achieved through staff and users having face-to-face contact with the TPC (or

TPC's Assistant) from the outset and the opportunity to discuss personal travel

planning. Potential users will be able to access Travel Plan information via the

Leisure Centre's website.

7.12 As well as explaining the various travel choices that are available to staff and users, it

is essential that the many benefits of sustainable travel are also promoted. These

include potential improvements in personal fitness, reduced stress, reduced congestion

etc.

7.13 After this initial face-to-face contact, it is essential to continue to market the Travel

Plan aspirations. This marketing will be undertaken using the following promotional

methods:

§ a ' Travel Information Pack' given to each member of staff;

§ provision of Green Travel Notice Boards to be positioned within/adjacent to the Leisure Centre

to provide information to the general public;

§ green travel information added to the Leisure Centre's website;

§ details of the sustainable travel credentials of the site to be included within promotional

literature for the Leisure Centre (e.g. close proximity of bus services, cycle network,

walking/cycling routes to and from the site etc); and

§ promotions considered appropriate by the TPC.

Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) - 56 - JANUARY 2010

7.14 The Travel Information Pack, Green Travel Notice Board and Website will contain

the following information:

a. A supporting Statement from the Leisure Centre promoting the sustainable travel

benefits which arise from the proposed development;

b. Information on the health benefits of walking/cycling;

c. Information regarding the location of cycle storage facilities within St. Albans and

on site;

d. Location of nearby cycle/cycle maintenance shops;

e. Maps showing local footpaths/cycle network;

f. Relevant bus timetable information, website links and contact telephone numbers;

g. Information on available discounts for bus travel, such as season tickets, discount

for children etc.;

h. Train timetable summary, pocket timetables for local destinations, relevant

website links and contact telephone numbers; and

i. Promotion of local/national events such as Bike Week, charity fun

runs/walks/cycle rides, cycle security coding promotions, local health walks etc.

7.15 The above information will need to be reviewed and updated on a regular basis by the

TPC.

§ TPC to review information detailed in 7.14 on a regular basis (at least every six months).

Measures

7.16 Many people working at or visiting the Leisure Centre will live within St. Albans.

The measures outlined below specifically target these trip purposes.

Walking and Cycling

7.17 The accessibility of the Leisure Centre by foot will be promoted through the Leisure

Centre's marketing campaign.

Walking is best suited to journeys under 2km. Generally, staff and users living within

5km of the site are potential cycle users. The site has been designed to be pedestrian

and cyclist friendly. The site also includes footway linkages to and from the local

road and foot network. The following measures are proposed as part of the Walking

& Cycling Strategy:

§ provision of safe walking and cycle route information to all staff including distances and times

to residential areas via the 'Travel Information Pack';

§ the provision of safe, secure and accessible cycle parking facilities for staff and users to the

Leisure Centre [Refer to S&P Plan 3033 (08) 012, Appendix 1];

§ the provision of well maintained and free to use on-site facilities such as storage lockers and

showers;

§ additions to the existing user orientation signs located at appropriate site entry points (as

appropriate);

§ raising the canopy of the trees along Holywell Hill to provide a safer ‘lighter’ environment for

pedestrians (subject to the approval of the SACDC Aboricultural Officer)

§ documents within the 'Travel Information Pack' to raise awareness of the health and

environmental benefits of walking and cycling;

§ TPC to try to influence the number of staff walking/cycling to the Leisure Centre, (targeting

those people who live within St. Albans (this can be done during the personal travel planning

sessions and following feedback from monitoring questionnaires – refer to the following

section); and

§ TPC to try to influence the number of users walking/cycling to the Leisure Centre.

7.18 Currently, 15.7% of users walk to the Leisure Centre. Given the measures outlined in

this section, a realistic target for walking to the new proposed centre would be 20%.

Currently, less than 5% of users cycle to the Leisure Centre, but given the measures

outlined in this section and St. Albans City & District Council’s desire to encourage

cycling, a realistic target would be say 10%.

§ User Targets: Walking 20%

Cycling 10%

7.19 Separate targets for the Leisure Centre staff could be set. Current levels of walking

and cycling are not known, but targets in line with St. Albans City & District

Council's Green Travel Plan for its employees of 10% walking and 8% cycling would

seem a reasonable starting point.

§ Staff Targets: Walking 10%

Cycling 8%

7.20 The development proposal includes for some 60 to 100 cycle parking spaces on site,

where 50% of these will be covered. The cycle parking (as shown on S&P Plan 3033

[08]012) is located throughout the site to provide convenient parking facilities for

users of the Leisure Centre as well as the Abbey Theatre, Athletics Track,

Verulamium Park etc. There are no cycle parking facilities on the site at present.

Public Transport

7.21 With respect to scheduled bus services, the operator of the Leisure Centre will

implement the following package of measures:

§ provision of maps and timetable information to each member of staff, through a leaflet within

the 'Travel Information Pack' and information relating to internet access, (also to be displayed

on the Green Travel Notice Board within the Leisure Centre and on their website);

§ marketing of the close proximity of available bus services to the Leisure Centre in promotional

flyers for the site; and

§ availability of maps and timetable information in reception for the general public.

7.22 The operator of the Leisure Centre will undertake the following actions in order to

encourage rail travel:

§ provision of relevant rail timetables within the 'Travel Information Pack' (where applicable to

that member of staff) for local services (also to be displayed on the Green Travel Notice Board

within the Leisure Centre and on their website); and

7.22 Contd.

§ provision of relevant rail travel websites within the 'Travel Information Pack' so that up-to-date

information is always available.

7.23 The bus/rail pocket timetables provided within each information pack will be most

relevant to staff. However, where future staff wish to find out about the potential for

rail travel to other destinations, appropriate web links will be provided. The

information pack will be updated on a bi-annual basis to ensure that information

issued to new members of staff is up-to-date.

§ update Information Pack on a bi-annual basis.

7.24 As mentioned in Section 5.0 above, it will be important to promote rail travel for

special events, such as swimming galas or athletics events, where people will travel

from further afield.

7.25 Current levels of public transport usage of Leisure Centre users is 2.6%. Given the

measures outlined in this section, a realistic target would be 5%. Existing staff public

transport usage is unknown, but a target rate of 10% in line with St. Albans' Green

Travel Plan for its employees would be a realistic starting point.

§ User Target: Public Transport 5%

§ Staff Target: Public Transport 10%

Car Parking

7.26 Car parking will be closely managed by SACDC, with ticketing regimes implemented

as appropriate, subject to further detailed discussion with the Local Highway

Authority in order to manage demand and discourage single-occupancy car trips.

We understand that SACDC are presently considering the most appropriate parking

regime to reflect the various desired uses of the car park i.e. for Westminster Lodge

users, Verulamium Park visitors, tourists and coach use.

7.27 The new car park which is to be provided adjacent to the Leisure Centre, will be

constructed in accordance with Disability and Discrimination Act requirements and

best practice guidance. For example, circulation space will be provided for each and

every disabled parking space and maximum car park cross-fall gradients will be 1 in

40.

7.28 In addition to the on-site parking, during one-off events such as swimming galas,

bonfire night etc. temporary off-site parking is likely to be required for visiting teams

and spectators etc. Any event traffic management will need to be discussed with the

Local Highway and Police Authorities. The following locations are potential sites for

off-site parking, although the operator of the Leisure Centre / SACDC will need to

negotiate with the relevant land owners:

§ Abbey View Retail Pak (Argos Extra, Carpet Right, Currys, Halfords, Homebase,

Matalan, McDonalds and Sainsbury’s)

§ Alban Park / The Merlin Centre

§ Brick Knoll Park

§ Clarence Park

§ Loreto College

§ Mandeville Primary School

§ Marlborough Science College

§ Oaklands College (Smallford Campus)

§ Playing Field South of King Harry Lane

§ Premier Foods (Serena Offices)

§ St. Albans School

§ St. Columbia’s College

§ St. Stephen / St. Alban RC Junior School

§ University of Hertfordshire

§ Verulam Golf Course

§ Verulam School

§ Ventura Park

7.29 It is likely that land owners will be more willing to provide the Leisure Centre with

temporary parking during certain time periods such as evenings or weekends.

Obviously at weekends, during the day, the car parking associated with office

buildings and educational establishments will be more readily available than the retail

premises. However, the parking associated with these retail premises is likely to be

available during the evening events such as Bonfire Night and ice skating etc.

7.30 On-street parking is also available along Griffiths Way, where there is capacity for

some 45 cars.

7.31 The TPC will undertake the following actions with regard to one-off events:

§ negotiate off-site parking locations with relevant land owners as appropriate;

§ discuss event traffic management with the Local Highway and Police Authorities; and

§ make the necessary traffic management arrangements, such as the need for Marshalls etc.

7.32 The opportunity has been taken to improve coach parking on the site as part of the

redevelopment. Dedicated space for some 4 coaches is provided in the westernmost

car park, where this represents a significant improvement over the existing, more

random situation. The dedicated bays will improve the safe passage of coach

passengers, on foot, to their destination.

7.32 Contd.

Furthermore, it improves the pick up/drop off situation for St. Columba’s students,

who presently use this car park on a daily basis during term time.

7.33 A coach drop off bay has also been provided adjacent to the new Leisure Centre

entrance, alongside the main access road. This provides the facility for coach

passengers to be dropped close to the Leisure Centre, prior to the coach driver

continuing to the Westminster Lodge car park to ‘park up’. This is considered an

excellent facility, given that circa 1,000 children use the existing Leisure Centre on a

regular basis each week.

7.34 Where the use of other, more sustainable modes of transport is not practicable, travel

by coach should be encouraged over and above car journeys. Refer to later discussion

for special events.

Car Sharing

7.35 Car sharing can be an effective means of reducing the number of cars driven to and

from the proposed site. In order to maximise this potential, the following strategy is

proposed:

§ the TPC will encourage staff to consider the benefits of car sharing during personal travel

planning sessions with individual members of staff.

7.36 Car sharing can be a very effective way of reducing peak hour congestion and easing

parking problems. It can also assist in reducing staff expenses. Invariably, some staff

will choose to travel by car and if this is going to be the case then car sharing and

drop-off/pick-up should be positively promoted. Parking spaces could be reserved for

such users closer to the building's entrance, and staff and users could make use of

existing car-share schemes by registering with Hertfordshire's 'Herts Lift Share'

website or national databases such as 'National Car Share'.

____________________________________________________________________________________

Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) - 63 - JANUARY 2010

7.37 A guaranteed lift home, by taxi if necessary, could form part of the package should

one of the car share pair be called away earlier than planned. This would help to

ensure confidence in the system and therefore take up.

7.38 The proportion of existing car sharers to the Leisure Centre is unknown, but a target

of 5% would seem realistic due to shift patterns. The target set out within the St.

Albans' Green Travel Plan is 6%.

7.39 Inevitably, regardless of the alternatives available, some people will choose to travel

to and from Westminster Lodge by car. To help reduce the number of peak hour

vehicle trips on the network, more competitive rates could be offered for off-peak

Leisure Centre use, e.g. off-peak gym membership.

§ the TPC to consider more competitive rates for off-peak Leisure Centre usage.

Flexible Working

7.40 The nature of the Leisure Centre business ensures that the vast majority of staff

movements occur outside of the conventional highway network peak hours due to

shift patterns and the longer opening hours of the centre.

Users

7.41 With respect to users of the Leisure Centre, the Leisure Centre will:

§ provide all 'Travel Information Pack' details on their website such that relevant details can be

accessed by users; and

§ make public transport timetable information available in the reception area.

Incentives

7.42 Financial incentives or prizes could be offered to users of the centre who travel

sustainably to the leisure centre say ten times.

____________________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________

Cole Easdon Consultants (CEC) - 64 - JANUARY 2010

7.42 Contd.

An example of such an incentive could be a free swim. Such a system would

obviously need to be based on the trust of the individual. Alternatives to the ‘free

swim’ could be a free drink in the café, for example. This may help to encourage

those people who have say monthly membership of the gym.

7.43 Abuse of a system such as that described above, whereby a regular cyclist or public

transport user gets a free swim or fitness class, could be monitored and reduced by the

user being required to show their cycle helmet or bus ticket for example. However,

this incentive scheme has been discussed with HCC’s Travel Plan Officer, where it

was established that abuse of such incentive schemes elsewhere is minimal.

7.44 Interest-free loans could be offered to staff of the Leisure Centre for the purchase of

cycle equipment, or rail and bus season tickets. Such a system is currently operated

by St. Albans City & District Council for its employees as part of the Authority's

Green Travel Plan. Indeed, as a Local Authority Leisure Centre (albeit managed by

an agent) the centre's staff may be eligible to participate in the Authority's scheme.

Instalments could be deducted from employees' pay.

7.45 With respect to incentives, the TPC will:

§ investigate the potential for financial incentives or prizes for both staff and users who regularly

travel by sustainable modes.

Special Events

7.46 Special events will need to be co-ordinated by the TPS on an individual basis, this due

to the many factors that will influence demand, such as:

§ the time of year;

§ the day of the week;

§ the timing of the event;

§ the longevity of the vent (number of days);

§ the anticipated spectator attendance;

§ the distance over which attendees are likely to travel to reach Westminster Lodge;

and

§ where attendees are likely to travel from (i.e. widespread, or all from pone

location).

7.47 Given consideration of the above factors, the TPC will need to consider the suitability

of all sustainable modes of travel, including consideration of whether coach travel is

appropriate.

Summary

7.48 This section has highlighted a wide range of measures that will be implemented as

part of this Travel Plan in order to encourage sustainable travel associated with the

Leisure Centre.

8.0 TRAVEL PLAN MANAGEMENT

Who will Manage the Travel Plan?

8.1 If the planning application is approved, responsibility for this Travel Plan will lie with

the operator of the Leisure Centre. They will be required to appoint a suitable person

to act as Travel Plan Co-ordinator (TPC) and ensure the measures outlined in this

Travel Plan are implemented and that the Travel Plan is taken forward.

§ the operator of the Leisure Centre to appoint a TPC, and advise SACDC/HCC of that

appointment.

8.2 The operator of the Leisure Centre may retain the services of Cole Easdon

Consultants to support their own TPC by providing ad-hoc advice and information

with respect to marketing material and personal travel planning.

8.3 The Leisure Centre operator’s responsibility for this Travel Plan lies not only in

appointing the TPC, but also in ensuring that the up-front Travel Plan measures are

provided during the marketing stage, this by working together with the TPC and St.

Albans City & District Council towards a common goal. After the new Leisure

Centre has been occupied, the specific role of the TPC will continue with promotion

of sustainable travel associated with the redeveloped Leisure Centre. It is important

that the so-called ‘hard measures’, such as covered cycle parking, are provided from

the outset, being available from the first day of opening.

8.4 The operator of the Leisure Centre is responsible for ensuring that the various actions

as outlined in Table 11.1 (within Section 11.0) are implemented.

Deliverability

8.5 The TPC will provide the initial co-ordination needed to ensure the Travel Plan's

success. Their primary responsibilities will include:

9.0 TRAVEL PLAN TARGETS

9.1 Targets are measurable goals, which are set in order to assess whether the objectives

of a Travel Plan have been achieved. The Government Advisory Committee on

Business and the Environment Agency recommend a target reduction of 10% in the

number of employees travelling to work alone by car. Provisional targets for the

Leisure Centre are provided below:-

§ to reduce single person occupancy car use of staff and users by 10%;

§ to increase the number of people car sharing;

§ to increase the number of people walking and cycling; and

§ to increase the number of people travelling by public transport.

9.2 More explicit targets can be set once the results of the travel surveys of staff and users

are known.

10.0 TRAVEL PLAN MONITORING & REVIEW

10.1 An essential element of the Travel Plan will be to monitor its successfulness and

progress with time. As such, monitoring will be carried out on a regular basis to

assess staff and users' travel patterns, and to determine whether modal split targets are

being met. A monitoring or 'snapshot' survey will be undertaken on an annual basis to

find out whether the Travel Plan is succeeding in its objectives. Monitoring will be

undertaken by the TPC (on behalf of the operators of the Leisure Centre).

10.2 The monitoring will be carried out by the TPC and will involve the following surveys

to be undertaken on an annual basis:

§ a questionnaire survey, to determine how staff travel, and to collect any

comments on travel and transportation matters; and

§ a questionnaire survey, to determine how users travel, and to collect any

comments on travel and transportation matters.

10.3 The TPC will be responsible for providing feedback from the surveys to the

appropriate officers of SACDC and HCC. The modal split targets can be adjusted in

due course through consultation with SACDC and HCC as appropriate.

§ the TPC is to undertake staff and user travel surveys on an annual basis

Monitoring Plan

10.4 The effects of the various initiatives set out in the Travel Plan will be monitored by

reviewing the results of the staff and user travel surveys each year to identify progress

with meeting the targets and objectives identified within this report.

The Alban Way...the green route from St Albans Abbey to Hatfield House...The Alban Way is a trail for cyclists and walkers along a former railway line. It is an important link in the local sustainable transport network and forms part of Route 61 of the Sustrans National Cycle Network.

The Alban Way has a smooth surface, suitable for all users, with lighting at the Hatfield end. It has many access points, most of which are ramped or level. It provides a route for leisure, commuting and safe routes to school.

The Alban Way is 61/2 miles long (about 40 minutes’ cycling). It runs between Cottonmill Lane in St Albans and Wrestlers Bridge in Hatfield, providing a safe link between these two historic towns, with access to many amenities and facilities.

For most of its length, the Alban Way runs along the former route of the Hatfield to St Albans branch line of the Great Northern Railway. Opened in 1865, the line was used for freight and passenger services until it was closed and dismantled in 1969.

London Road station was one of the main passenger stations on the old railway line. It now houses small businesses.

Near the old station, the Alban Way passes under a huge railway bridge carrying today’s mainline rail traffic.

St Albans Abbey

St Albans

Start/Finish

Just off Riverside Road and just by the access ramp

up onto the Alban Way is the Watercress Wildlife

Association nature reserve. Maintained by volunteers, this small space provides

an urban sanctuary for wildlife on the site of

former watercress beds and includes a butterfly

meadow, a woodland area, a bog and an orchard.

Watercress Beds

London Road

The old wooden railway platform on the north side is all that is left of the Sanders Siding, built in 1890 to transport orchids from the nearby Sanders Nursery.

Sanders Sidings

Camp Road

The old platform on the south side used to be Hill End Station, close to the former county psychiatric hospital. In the war, the railway was used to ferry wounded soldiers to the hospital.

Hill End

Take care crossing the road. Hill End Lane leads to Hixberry Lane, a pleasant off-road route to the village of Tyttenhanger.

Hill End Lane

These fields and private fishing lake have been created from a former landfill site. Please keep to the paths in this area.

Smallford Pit

On the north side is the derelict railway building and old platform – all that remains of the former Smallford Station.

Smallford Station

St Albans is one of England’s oldest cities with a rich architectural heritage. It has several museums, including the Roman museum in Verulam park (left) and the City museum on Hatfield Road. Today, St Albans is a thriving market town, with plentiful pubs, restaurants and cafes.

Cross with delight Camp Road Bridge, built in 2003.

St Albans Abbey forms the heart of the historic city of St Albans. Following the departure of the

Romans from the ancient town of Verulamium, the Abbey was

founded in the fourth century and was one of England’s greatest abbeys until the dissolution of

the monasteries in the sixteenth century, after which it fell into

disrepair until its restoration at the end of the nineteenth century.

From the city, follow any of the yellow roads on the map to reach

the Alban Way.

Take care crossing the

railway line! This is the official

start of the St Albans end of

the Alban Way, at Leyland Avenue.

Hatfield HouseOld Hatfield has many historic

buildings, including the Old Palace, built in 1497, whose most famous

resident was Princess Elizabeth. It was here, in 1558, that she learned she had become Queen, following the death of

Queen Mary.

The Old Palace sits in the grounds of Hatfield House, built in 1607 as the

seat of the Cecil family and still home to Lord and Lady Salisbury. A stunning Jacobean house, Hatfield House sits in its own Great Park and has magnificent

gardens, nature trails and a national collection of model soldiers.

Cycles are not allowed in the grounds, but you can lock your bike at the

Railway Station opposite the main entrance on the Great North Road.

Dating back to Saxon times, the village of Hatfield was first known as Hetfelle. Always important because of its position on the Great North Road, Hatfield grew rapidly in the late nineteenth century, with the development of fast railway links with London and the north.

The town grew even faster in the twentieth century, fuelled by the aircraft industry and the post-war demand for new housing, and was developed as one of London’s new towns.

Hatfield

In 1934, the De Havilland aircraft company set up its factory here, to produce many remarkable planes, including the Mosquito, Trident, Comet Racer (right) and Tiger Moth (left).

The airfield has been redeveloped to provide commercial, residential and leisure facilities, as well as a new campus for the University of Hertfordshire.
