Project Evaluation - Evaluation Methodology

As set out in the Background to Project Evaluation section, this 1YA report presents the results of a One Year Evaluation of the M8 M73 M74 Motorway Improvements Project, focusing on:

The operation of the project: how the project is operating (in terms of traffic and safety in particular); and
Objectives: whether the project is on-track to achieving its objectives.

Furthermore, a process evaluation has been carried out, which considers how the project was implemented across the elements of project cost, programme and key processes. A commentary on this is included under other criteria (e.g. RSA process under Safety), the main aspects of process evaluation have been summarised above in the Summary of impacts section of this report

This evaluation was supported by site visits carried out in November 2019. These focussed on the environmental mitigation measures provided as part of the project, in addition to the facilities provided for non-motorised users (NMU). External stakeholder views were invited from a variety of respondents, including a comprehensive array of businesses located within the wider area. Feedback received is presented within the report.
