Vulnerability of the project to risks

Works will be programmed as far as is reasonably practicable to avoid periods of adverse weather or heavy rainfall. There will be no increase to the likelihood of flooding on the A86 within the scheme extents upon completion of the works.

A Traffic Management Plan (TMP), which includes measures to avoid or reduce disruption to road traffic, will be produced in accordance with the Traffic Signs Manual (Department of Transport 2009). The TMP will ensure that there is no severance of community assets, access routes or residential development.

These measures, along with mitigation measures and standard working practices, will be detailed in the SEMP and adhered to on site. The vulnerability of the project to risks of major accidents and disasters is considered to be low.
