After three rounds of public consultation, we have continued to develop the design of the Scheme and undertake environmental surveys and assessments. The findings of the Environmental Impact Assessment are presented in the Environmental Statement (ES) which can be accessed here.

The ES describes the design evolution and reasonable alternatives of the Scheme. Following a detailed assessment of the likely significant effects of the Scheme, we identified mitigation measures that we are proposing to implement to avoid or reduce effects or enhance the benefits of the Scheme. A Non-Technical Summary of the ES can be found by clicking here.
