1. Introduction 1.1 The West of England (WoE) Local Authorities - Bath and North East Somerset (B&NES), Bristol
City (BCC), North Somerset (NSC) and South Gloucestershire Councils (SGC) - are promoting the
South Bristol Link (SBL), a major transport scheme to address current and future transport
problems in the south Bristol area.
1.2 This scheme has been identified as a funding priority in the South West Region’s Regional
Funding Allocation (RFA). The authorities are preparing a Major Scheme Business Case (MSBC)
submission to the Department for Transport (DfT) for the scheme.
1.3 The South Bristol Link is a combined orbital highway and Rapid Transit link with adjacent
foot/cycleway between the A370 and Hartcliffe. The SBL would link the A370 with the A38 and the
A4174 at Hartcliffe Roundabout adjacent to Hengrove Park. The scheme is shown in Figure 1.1
and comprises:
SBL Rapid Transit starting from the Long Ashton park and ride site, and merging with the
single carriageway SBL highway link at South Liberty Lane;
Combined highway/ Rapid Transit link from South Liberty Lane to the A38, with segregated
Rapid Transit route adjacent to the highway lanes;
Combined highway/ Rapid Transit link from A38 to Hartcliffe roundabout, with segregated
bus-ways for Rapid Transit in the centre of the route, and highway lanes either side; and
Rapid Transit Line 2 extended from Long Ashton park and ride site to a new terminus at the
South Bristol Hospital to be built in Hengrove Park.

1.4 A suite of models termed the Greater Bristol Modelling Framework (GBMF) covers the WoE’s
main urban areas. These Variable Demand Models follow the latest (DfT) guidance, and have
been designed to act as the starting point for the assessment of a range of potential transport
interventions in the sub-region. The G-BATS3 model is the component of the GBMF that focuses
on the main urban area of Bristol and is the starting point for the modelling of the SBL MSBC.
1.5 The G-BATS3 model has been updated specifically for the SBL study, and this version of the
model is referred to as G-BATS3 SBL. The G-BATS3 SBL modelling system consists of three key
elements:
a Highway Assignment Model (HAM) representing vehicle-based movements across the
Greater Bristol Area for a typical 2009 morning peak hour (08:00 – 09:00), an average inter-
peak hour (10:00 – 16:00) and an evening peak hour (17:00 – 18:00);
a Public Transport Assignment Model (PTAM) representing bus and rail-based movements
across the same area and time periods; and
a five-stage multi-modal incremental Demand Model that estimates frequency choice, main
mode choice, time period choice, destination choice, and sub mode choice in response to
changes in generalised costs across the 24-hour period (07:00 – 07:00).
1.6 In addition to updates to the transport models, the SBL forecasting approach has been to update
the land use distribution from previous versions to the latest land use distribution provided by the
four WoE Local Authorities and to control to TEMPRO v6.1.

2. Forecasting Methods
The G-BATS3 Model 2.1 A suite of three models termed the Greater Bristol Modelling Framework (GBMF) covers the
WoE’s main urban areas (Figure 2.1). These Variable Demand Models have been developed
following Department for Transport (DfT) guidance.

2.2 All three models have been developed in accordance with the requirements for appropriate
Variable Demand Modelling (TAG Unit 3.10), Modelling Public Transport Schemes (TAG Unit
3.11) and Modelling Road Pricing (TAG Unit 3.12). The overall structure of the G-BATS3 model is
shown below (Figure 2.2).

Figure 2.2 – G-BATS3 Modelling Structure
Model Development 2.3 The BATS3 v2.3 model, with a base year of 2006, was previously developed by Atkins for the
WoE local authorities. As part of the development of the G-BATS3 SBL model, G-BATS3 v2.3 was
updated and re-based to 2009. These update tasks included:
enhancing the zoning system for the assignment models to provide more detail in the SBL
study area;
enhancing the highway network to give more detail in the SBL area, and updating bus service
representation to the 2009 timetable;
updating the highway and public transport demand matrices to incorporate newly-collected
survey data;
revalidating the highway and public transport assignment models to a 2009 base year; and
changing the trip end modelling processes to be consistent with current guidance (WebTAG
Unit 3.15.2).
2.4 More detailed information can be found in the following reports:
SBL Highway Assignment Model Development Report (Atkins, February 2010);
SBL Public Transport Assignment Model Development Report (Atkins, February 2010); and
G-BATS3 SBL Demand Model Validation Report (Atkins, February 2010).
Overall Approach 2.5 Transport forecasting is a three stage process. The first stage requires the generation of future
year travel demand (without any change in cost) and is referred to as the ‘reference case’. The
second stage estimates the impact of known changes in the supply of transport to be incorporated
into the model, and is referred to as the ‘without intervention case’. The final stage predicts the
impact of the transport intervention and this is referred to as the ‘with intervention case’.
2.6 TEMPRO projections of population, employment and trip ends were used in the model to forecast
travel growth across the whole of the sub-region for the G-BATS3 SBL Model; however, in order
to more realistically reflect projected land use changes, travel demand growth has been
distributed throughout the area using more detailed local planning data supplied by the West of
England Partnership.

3. Future Year Demand Assumptions
Forecast Years 3.1 Centralised planning data forecasts are available for a range of forecast years from the DfT's
National Trip End Model (accessed via the TEMPRO software programme) between 2001 and
2031. The LTP cycle is focused on five-yearly intervals with LTP reflecting the period 2001-2006
whilst, more recently, LTP2 focussed on the period 2006-2011.
3.2 The recent submissions to the Regional Assembly have looked further ahead with assessments
made for 2016, 2021, 2026 and 2031 reflecting both medium and/or longer term planning
horizons. As such, the majority of the planning data currently available from the local authorities
reflects 2011, 2016, 2021, 2026 and 2031 forecast years.
3.3 The SBL modelling framework has been developed to represent a 2009 Base Year to which the
model has been calibrated and validated; and two forecast years: 2016 and 2031.
Reference Case Demand 3.4 Demand forecasting needs future year trip ends as an input to the Demand Model. Future year trip
ends for the G-BATS3 SBL model were derived using two datasets:
TEMPRO v6.1; and
Local data relating to future land use provided by the West of England Partnership, including
committed land use developments and the assumptions for core scenario land use
developments.
3.5 WebTAG Unit 3.15.2, para 5.7.8 states that trip end growth should be consistent with TEMPRO at
the study area level, in order to allow consistency between different parts of the country when
justifying transport proposals, as well as reducing the risk of optimism bias. Consequently, trip end
growth was controlled to TEMPRO forecasts at the study area level, but distributed throughout the
study area on the basis of the more detailed local planning data.
3.6 The trip end methodology adopted for the G-BATS3 SBL model may be summarised as:
Calculate TEMPRO background growth and TEMPRO forecast trip ends for each modelled
zone.
Within the WoE area, redistribute trip growth according to more detailed local planning data.
Produce reference case demand matrices by furnessing the base demand to the forecast trip
ends.
Segment reference case demand by mode and time period using base year proportions.
Finally, control demand to TEMPRO trip ends to correct for any numerical rounding errors.
3.7 Further details of each stage in the process are given below.
TEMPRO Background Growth
3.8 Table 3.1 summarises the overall population and employment figures for the WoE area from
TEMPRO, for the base year (2009), and future years 2016 and 2031, respectively.
3.9 There is a growth of approximately 6% in population between 2009 and 2016, compared with a
10% growth in households, due to an assumed reduction in household size over this period.
Forecasting Report
5083585 - SBL Forecasting Report v2.01.docx 11
Employment growth is lower at 5% between 2009 and 2016. The growth from 2006 to 2031 is
largest for households, with an increase of 29%, though the population only increases by 21%
again due to reduction in household size. Job growth is healthier between these two years at
15%.

3.10 WebTAG 3.10.2c (Para 1.6.18) recommends that TEMPRO growth be applied to base
productions and attractions at an all-day and all-modes level. TEMPRO background growth was
calculated for G-BATS3 following this guidance, separately for each purpose (HBW/ HBEB/
NHBEB/ HBO/ NHBO) and car availability sector car available, non car available (CA/ NCA).
3.11 The steps involved in creating TEMPRO background growth are presented below:
Aggregate base production/attraction (P/A) demand matrices over modes and time periods
and then create base production and attraction trip ends (PA_base);
Extract TEMPRO base year trip ends (TEMPRO_base) and future year trip ends
(TEMPRO_future) at an all-day and all-modes level; and
Calculate forecast year background trip ends by purpose and by car availability
(PA_Future_background), by applying TEMPRO growth factors to base P/A trip ends at an
all-day and all-modes level.
PA_Future_background = PA_base * (TEMPRO_future / TEMPRO_base)
3.12 To apply the TEMPRO background growth, a new sector system with 53 sectors has been created
as shown in Figure 3.1, aggregated over the 600 G-BATS3 zones and compatible with TEMPRO
zone, District, County or Region boundaries. Each TEMPRO zone within the G-BATS3 modelled
area is defined as a sector.

Redistribution of Growth Within WoE Area
West of England Development Strategies
3.13 The West of England Partnership provided information regarding the committed land use
developments planned for the Greater Bristol area in the periods to 2016 and 2031.
3.14 Each new development within the planning data was classified by land-use type as follows:
Residential developments, specified as number of new dwellings.
Employment developments , specified in Gross Floor Area (GFA); further subcategorised
into, for example,
- Retail.
- Office; and
- Leisure.
3.15 Committed developments are shown in Figure 3.2 and Figure 3.3 for 2009 to 2016 and 2009 to
2031 respectively.

Trip End Creation for Developments
3.16 The trip rate database package TRICS 2008 was used to calculate trip rates at all-day and all-
modes level. With extensive data collection from surveys throughout UK, TRICS is able to
calculate multi-modal average trip rates at daily level according to different types of land use.
3.17 The TRICS software requires the specification of an area type. In order to correctly model the
Greater Bristol area, the region was divided into city centre, suburban and rural sub-regions.
These were respectively associated with TRICS 2008 trip rates for:
Edge of Town Centre,
Suburban; and
Edge of Town sites.
3.18 It should be noted that Edge of Town Centre was chosen over Town Centre to represent the city
centre areas because the number of Town Centre survey sites in TRICS was particularly low.
3.19 In order to optimise sample size for the generation of the trip rates whilst keeping them
representative of the Greater Bristol area, the data used covered England but excluded the
Greater London area from the sample.
3.20 The total number of origin and destination trip ends generated by TRICS is shown Appendix A.
3.21 The trip ends were then converted from origin/ destination format to P/A format for the next stage
of the processing. In this step, the TEMPRO background P/A trip ends were replaced with the
development P/A trip ends within the WoE area. The WoE trip ends were then factored so that the
Greater Bristol Modelling Framework – G-BATS3 Forecasting Report
/5083585 - SBL Forecasting Report v2.01.docx
total forecast productions and attractions across the WoE area were controlled to the TEMPRO-
derived values.
Furnessing to Trip Ends
3.22 In general, the future year demand was distributed using the original distribution of trips in the
base year model. For brownfield (or greenfield) development zones, the base year demand
matrices could not provide a sound basis for the incremental choice model. In these cases the
base year trip matrices were "seeded" with a synthetic distribution taking account of the cost of
travel between zones and the relative attractiveness of each destination zone.
3.23 The P/A format seeded base matrices (aggregated across modes and time periods) were
furnessed to the forecast trip ends to produce the forecast reference case demand matrices.
Matrix Segmentation
3.24 WebTAG 3.10.2c recommends that segmentation of future year matrices by mode and time period
is undertaken by applying base proportions. Note that this segmentation process was applied
within each purpose (HBW / HBEB / NHBEB / HBO / NHBO) and person type (CA / NCA), as
TEMPRO background trip ends are extracted at this level.
3.25 It is a relatively simple process to apply base proportions for zones with existing traffic movements
to split by mode and time period at the matrix cell level.
3.26 For brownfield (or greenfield) development zones for which base trips are zero, or for which the
base patterns of trip making cannot be assumed to apply to the future year demand, the
segmentation cannot be applied at the matrix-cell level. Instead, the average base proportions
calculated across the whole matrix are applied to the brownfield and greenfield development
zones.
Finalising Forecast Demand
3.27 In the final step, the forecast reference case demand matrices were again factored to the
TEMPRO-derived trip ends to correct for any rounding errors. The above steps in trip end
modelling ensure consistency with national forecasts and thus avoid bias. In essence, the trip end
calculation uses local land use development assumptions but ensures that total trips across the
WoE area are constrained to be equal to the benchmark trip ends set by TEMPRO background
growth.
LGV and HGV Growth 3.28 Table 3.2 below shows the growth rates used to forecast Light Goods Vehicles (LGV) and Heavy
Goods Vehicles (HGV) from the Base Year to 2016 and 2031 respectively. Growth factors were
derived from the Department for Transport’s 2007 Road Transport Forecasts for England.

4. Future Year Supply Assumptions
Without-Intervention Case Networks 4.1 The Without-Intervention Case represents those elements of the planned package that can
reasonably be expected to be delivered by a specific forecast year. The Without-Intervention Case
schemes have been determined based on an uncertainty log which allocates schemes to one of
four categories as follows:
Near Certain : The outcome will happen or there is a high probability that it will happen;
More than likely: The outcome is likely to happen but there is some uncertainty;
Reasonably Foreseeable: The outcome may happen but there is significant uncertainty; and
Hypothetical: There is considerable uncertainty whether the outcome will ever happen.
4.2 Based on the uncertainty log, the Without-Intervention Case should include schemes that are
considered ‘near certain’ or ‘more than likely’. The Without-Intervention Case should represent a
realistic view of what is likely to happen in the absence of any specific scheme proposals. It
should focus on maintaining present transport facilities and implementing the more certain aspects
of regional and local transport strategies.
4.3 The Without-Intervention Case network includes modifications to the public transport and
highways networks. These are described in more detail below:
Recent highway improvements – Newfoundland Circus Gyratory, M32 J3 signalisation,
Jacobs Wells signalisation, M5 J19 capacity enhancements and Hartcliffe Roundabout
signalisation
Greater Bristol Bus Network – bus priority schemes and proposed service enhancements.
This includes the developer-funded schemes within South Gloucestershire.
A38 to Cribbs Causeway Distributor Road – part of the Filton Northfield development,
includes associated bus links through the development site
M4/M5 Managed Motorways – peak period capacity enhancements through dynamic hard
shoulder running and variable speed limits (this is a new addition to the Reference Case
compared with previous submissions)
Ashton Vale to Temple Meads Rapid Transit

5. Forecasting Assumptions 5.1 There are a number of key forecasting assumptions, in addition to changes in supply and
demand, that affect model forecasting:
Vehicle occupancy;
Vehicle operating costs;
Values of time;
Bus fares;
Rail fares; and
Parking charges.
5.2 It is noted that the models are defined to work in real terms – i.e. excluding the effects of inflation.
This means that only changes in real costs and values need to be included in the forecasts.
Vehicle Occupancy 5.3 Car passenger occupancies are assumed to increase per annum by the factors shown in Table
5.1 (WebTAG Unit 3.5.6).

Vehicle Operating Costs and Values of Time 5.4 Vehicle operating costs were taken from WebTAG Unit 3.5.6 and increased to 2009 prices. Non-
fuel costs are assumed to remain constant in real terms over the forecast period. The cost
parameters used are shown in Table 5.2 below. These parameters (non-fuel based vehicle
operating costs) are used in calculating the PPK (pence per kilometre) values. Fuel costs are
assumed to increase in line with WebTAG recommendations.

Bus Fares 5.7 Changes in bus fares were derived using historical fare data taken from the Bulletin of Public
Transport Statistics1.
Table 5.5 shows the changes in bus fare receipts since 1990/91. On this
basis, a linear bus fare growth factor of 1.096% p.a. in real terms was calculated for the period
1990/91 – 2005/06, and this was assumed to apply from 2009 base year onwards.

Rail Fares 5.8 Similarly, fares indices were derived for non-London and South East operators from data
published in National Rail Trends2. It was considered that only data collected after rail
privatisation in 1997 was representative. A linear rail fare growth of 1.05% p.a. in constant prices
was calculated for the period January 1998 – January 2004. This was applied to factor up base
year rail fares for each forecast year (Table 5.6).

Parking Charges 5.9 It was assumed that there would be no increase of parking charges in real terms or changes in
parking supply for the Without-Intervention Case.
Modelling Rapid Transit 5.10 Rapid Transit is modelled alongside bus in the Demand Model hierarchy. However, there is
evidence to suggest that Rapid Transit has a higher degree of attractiveness compared to other
public transport modes.3 ‘Attractiveness’ in this context means the propensity for travellers to
choose Rapid Transit over other options, other things such as time and cost, being equal.
5.11 The relative attractiveness of Rapid Transit is modelled using a modal constant of, on average, 9
minutes, added to the in-vehicle time. The actual constant applied for each journey depends on
the time spent on the Rapid Transit service (passengers spending more time on the service(s) will
incur a higher modal constant) but the modal constant is calculated such that the average
reduction in generalised cost for all Rapid Transit passengers is 9 minutes.

6. Without-Intervention Case Results
Introduction 6.1 This section presents a set of headline indicators for the Without-Intervention Case forecasts for
2016 and 2031. The key indicators for option performance are:
model convergence;
demand response;
highway network performance; and
public transport network performance.
Model Convergence 6.2 Model convergence is an indicator of the stability of the model. Convergence is measured by the
% Gap between supply and demand curves with the demand model. Perfectly converged models
would have a % Gap of zero and the guidance recommends values of less that 0.2%.
6.3 The demand model convergence is shown in Table 6.1 and it can be seen that suitable
convergence is reached in 21 loops in 2016 and a convergence well below 0.2 in 29 loops in
2031. Highway model convergence is shown in Table 6.2. The nature of the public transport
model assignment (i.e. without capacity restraint) means that very high levels of convergence are
always reached.

travelled on the modelled highway network for every zone pair multiplied by the number of
passenger car units (pcu's) for that zone pair;
Total Travel Time (pcu hours) - the sum (over all zone pairs) of the total time travelled on the
modelled highway network for every zone pair multiplied by the number of passenger car
units (pcu's) for that zone pair;
Average Network Speed (km/hr) - the average speed is the total distance travelled divided by
the total travel time; and
Greater Bristol Modelling Framework - G-BATS3 Forecasting Report

Total Delay (pcu hours) - total delay is taken as the difference between congested and free
flow travel time on the modelled highway network in pcu hours.

Public Transport Model Performance 6.10 The overall public transport network performance for the whole of the G-BATS3 modelled area is
summarised in terms of the following:
Total Travel Time (passenger hours) - the total time travelled on the modelled public transport
network;
Total Distance Travelled (passenger kilometres) - the total distance travelled on the modelled
public transport network multiplied by the number of passengers;
Passenger boardings – the number of public transport boardings.
6.11 These are shown in Figures 6.6 to 6.8 respectively for Bristol Urban Area (sectors 1-3). The
morning peak is the busiest time period and shows the greatest increase over time.

7. Preferred Scheme Results 7.1 The South Bristol Link is a combined orbital highway and Rapid Transit link with adjacent
foot/cycleway between the A370 and Hartcliffe. The SBL would link the A370 with the A38 and the
A4174 at Hartcliffe Roundabout adjacent to Hengrove Park. The scheme is shown in Figure 7.1
and comprises:
SBL Rapid Transit starting from the Long Ashton park and ride site, and merging with the
single carriageway SBL highway link at South Liberty Lane;
Combined highway/ Rapid Transit link from South Liberty Lane to the A38, with segregated
Rapid Transit route adjacent to the highway lanes;
Combined highway/ Rapid Transit link from A38 to Hartcliffe roundabout, with segregated
bus-ways for Rapid Transit in the centre of the route, and highway lanes either side; and
The SBL Rapid Transit service is formed by extending the Ashton Vale to City Centre Rapid
Transit along the SBL to a new terminus at the South Bristol Hospital to be built in Hengrove
Park. One out of every three peak services will be extended, and half of the inter-peak
services, giving a service headway of 18 minutes in the morning and evening peak periods,
and 24 minutes in the inter-peak period.

7.2 The key indicators for option performance are:
model convergence;
demand response;
highway network performance; and
public transport network performance.

Model Convergence 7.3 The demand model convergence is shown in Table 7.1 and it can be seen that suitable
convergence is reached in 22 loops in 2016 and a convergence below 0.2 in 29 loops in 2031.
Highway model convergence is shown in Table 7.2. The nature of the public transport model
assignment (i.e. without capacity restraint) means that very high levels of convergence are always
reached.

Demand Response
Response by Purpose
7.4 The demand model forecasts demand by mode and purpose for the given forecast year. The
forecast demand by car, bus and rail modes for home based work (HBW), other non-work trips
(Other) and employer’s business trips (EB) are shown in Table 7.3 below and the difference
between the Preferred Scheme and Without Intervention scheme is shown in Table 7.4.
The Preferred Scheme has the effect of decreasing car and bus use in the morning peak and
inter-peak but increasing rapid transit and park and ride use. In the evening peak there is an
increase in car demand but also an increase in rapid transit use. Overall, there is a shift in
demand towards the evening peak period.

Response by Location
7.6 The demand by mode has been sectored using the sector system shown in Figure 6.1. This
system splits the modelled area into the following five sectors:
Within Bristol Central Cordon
Within Bristol Inner Cordon
Within Bristol Outer Cordon
Rest of Greater Bristol sub-region; and
Rest of UK
7.7 Demand by mode and time period for each sector to sector movement is shown in Appendix C.
Highway Network Performance 7.8 The overall network performance for the whole of the G-BATS3 modelled area is summarised in
terms of the following:
Total Distance Travelled (pcu kilometres)
Total Travel Time (pcu hours);
Total Delay (pcu hours)); and
Average Network Speed (km/hr).
7.9 The changes in these statistics against the Without Intervention Case are shown in Figures 7.2 to
7.5 respectively for Bristol Urban Area (sectors 1-3).
7.10 The Preferred Scheme gives significant reductions in total vehicle delay, particularly in the
evening peak where delays across the whole urban area are cut by over 2%. This feeds through
to reductions in travel time and increases in average network speeds of approximately 0.6% in the
morning peak and over 1% in the evening peak by 2031. There is a small increase in the total
distance travelled.

7.11 Changes in flow as a result of the SBL are shown in Figures 7.6 for the morning peak in 2031, as
a means of showing the most significant changes. It can be seen that the SBL attracts local traffic
from the Bedminster Down and Headley Park area.

Public Transport Model Performance 7.13 The overall public transport network performance for the whole of the G-BATS3 modelled area is
summarised in Figures 7.9 to 7.11 respectively for Bristol Urban Area (sectors 1-3). There are
small increases in passenger hours and passenger distance travelled across the network
compared with the Without Intervention Case. Boardings decrease slightly in 2031, but this is
mainly due to a reduction in the average number of interchanges. The total public transport
demand (including park and ride) is almost unchanged in 2031.

8. Lower Cost Option Results 8.1 The key difference between the Lower Cost Option and the Preferred Scheme is that the rapid
transit shares the highway link for its full route, rather than having a dedicated rapid transit only
access to Long Aston Park and Ride site.
8.2 The scheme is shown in Figure 8.1 and comprises:
Combined highway/ Rapid Transit link from the Long Ashton park and ride site to the A38,
with a segregated Rapid Transit route adjacent to the highway lanes;
Combined highway/ Rapid Transit link from the A38 to Hartcliffe roundabout, with segregated
bus-ways for Rapid Transit in the centre of the route, and highway lanes either side; and
Rapid Transit Line 2 extended from Long Ashton park and ride site to a new terminus at the
South Bristol Hospital to be built in Hengrove Park.
Figure 8.1 – South Bristol Link Lower Cost Option
8.3 The key indicators for option performance are:
model convergence;
demand response;
highway network performance; and
public transport network performance.
Model Convergence 8.4 Model convergence is an indicator of the stability of the model. Convergence is measured by the
% Gap between supply and demand curves with the demand model. Perfectly converged models
would have a % Gap of zero and the guidance recommends values of less that 0.2%.
Greater Bristol Modelling Framework - G-BATS3 Forecasting Report
5063509/5083585 - SBL Forecasting Report v2.01.docx 50
8.5 The demand model convergence is shown in Table 8.1 and it can be seen that suitable
convergence is reached in 23 loops in 2016 and a convergence below 0.2 in 29 loops in 2031.
Highway model convergence is shown in Table 8.2. The nature of the public transport model
assignment (i.e. without capacity restraint) means that very high levels of convergence are always
reached.

Demand Response
Response by Purpose
8.6 The demand model forecasts demand by mode and purpose for the given forecast year. The
forecast demand by car, bus and rail modes for home based work (HBW), other non-work trips
(Other) and employer’s business trips (EB) are shown in Table 8.3 below for the Low Cost Option.
The difference between the Low Cost Option and the Without Intervention case is shown in Table
8.4.
8.7 The Lower Cost Option results in a reduction in Rapid Transit passengers across the day
compared with the Preferred Scheme, but a corresponding increase in bus passengers. The
number of car trips is slightly higher in the morning peak compared with the Preferred Scheme.
8.8 Mode split for motorised travel modes (i.e. excluding walking and cycling) is summarised in Table
8.5 for 2009, 2016 and 2031. There is no notable change in city-wide mode share compared with
the Without Intervention Case or Preferred Scheme.

Highway Network Performance 8.9 The changes in the key statistics against the Without Intervention Case are shown in Figures 8.2
to 8.5 respectively for Bristol Urban Area (sectors 1-3). The results are much like the Preferred
Scheme, with a reduction in delays across the urban area and increases in average network
speed,, especially in the evening peak.

Public Transport Model Performance 8.12 The overall public transport network performance is shown in Figures 8.9 to 8.11 respectively for
Bristol Urban Area (sectors 1-3). There are small increases in passenger hours and passenger
distance travelled across the network, although increases in passenger distance are less
significant than for the Preferred Scheme. As in the Preferred Scheme, boardings slightly
decrease in 2031, mainly as a result of a reduction in the average number of interchanges.

8.13 The boarding and alighting profile for the SBL Rapid Transit is shown in Figures 8.12 to 8.17 for
each time period in 2016 and 2031.
8.14 There are a total of 60 passengers boarding the SBL Rapid Transit service on the new section
between Hengrove Park and the Long Ashton park and ride site in the morning peak hour in 2016,
rising to 92 by 2031. This is a 24% reduction in boardings relative to the Preferred Scheme in
2016 and a 29% reduction in 2031, indicating that the less favourable routing for the SBL Rapid
Transit scheme has an impact on patronage.

9. Sensitivity Tests
Introduction 9.1 This section describes the performance of a range of sensitivity tests undertaken as part of the
SBL MSBC. The following investigations and tests were undertaken:
Low Growth (without-intervention and with intervention)
Highway Model Sensitivity Tests
9.2 No public transport sensitivity tests have been undertaken at this stage. The benefits from public
transport are approximately 10% of the total benefits. As the public transport benefits are small
component of the total scheme benefits, any sensitivity tests will have a limited impact on total
benefits.
Low Growth Test Results The low growth test reflects uncertainty regarding economic growth and fuel prices and is based
upon a sensitivity test suggested in WebTAG (Unit 3.15.3) where reference case demand growth
is reduced by 2.5% per annum for car, 2.0% per annum for rail and 1.5% per annum for bus, rising
with the square root of the number of years. This is equivalent to a reduction in growth of:
4.0% (Bus), 5.3% (Rail) and 6.6% (Car) for 2016; and
corresponding values of 7.0%, 9.4% and 11.7% respectively for 2031.
Model Convergence
9.3 The demand model convergence is shown in Table 9.1 and Table 9.2 for Without-Intervention and
Preferred Scheme respectively and it can be seen that suitable convergence is reached in 2016
convergence is below 0.2 in 2031. Highway model convergence is shown in Table 9.3 and Table
9.4 for Without-Intervention and Preferred Scheme respectively. The nature of the public
transport model assignment (i.e. without capacity restraint) means that very high levels of
convergence are always reached.

Highway Network Performance
9.5 The overall network performance for the whole of the G-BATS3 modelled area is summarised in
terms of the following:
Total Distance Travelled (pcu kilometres) - the total distance travelled on the modelled
highway network multiplied by the number of passenger car units (pcu's);
Total Travel Time (pcu hours) - the total time travelled on the modelled highway network
including delays multiplied by the number of passenger car units (pcu's);
Average Network Speed (km/hr) - the average speed is the total distance travelled divided by
the total travel time; and
Total Delay (pcu hours) - total delay is taken as the difference between congested and free
flow travel time on the modelled highway network in hours multiplied by the number of
passenger car units (pcu’s).
9.6 These are shown in Table 9.7 for 2016 and 9.8 for 2031 for Bristol Urban Area (sectors 1-3).

Public Transport Model Performance
9.8 The overall public transport network performance for the whole of the G-BATS3 modelled area is
summarised in terms of the following:
Total Travel Time (passenger hours) - the total time travelled on the modelled public transport
network time;
Total Distance Travelled (passenger kilometres) - the total distance travelled on the modelled
public transport network multiplied by the number of passengers;
Passenger boardings – the number of public transport boardings.
9.9 These are shown in Table 9.9 for 2016 and Table 9.10 for 2031 for Bristol Urban Area (sectors 1-
3).

Economic Performance
9.10 The TEE Table for the SBL Low Growth sensitivity test is shown in Table 9.11. The share of
benefits between highway and public transport is consistent with the Preferred Scheme test. The
BCR of this test is slightly lower than Preferred Scheme test, suggesting that a High Growth Test
would result in a slightly higher BCR.

Highway Sensitivity Tests
Origin and Destination of SBL Traffic
9.11 To demonstrate the fitness of purpose of the Base Year model for testing the SBL scheme, we
have undertaken an analysis of the traffic using the SBL. The test used the SATRAP function of
SATURN to assign selected matrices to the paths of from a particular assignment. The aim of the
test is to determine the proportion of traffic that comes from observed and estimated sources. In
this case, the test assigns the following base year matrices to the 2016 AM peak paths:
Pre-RSI trip matrix
RSI trip matrix
Matrix estimated (ME2) trip matrix
9.12 The results of the test demonstrate the provenance of the trips using the SBL (Table 9.12 and
9.13). The analysis shows that in the eastbound direction approximately 5% of trips would come
from the pre-RSI matrix, almost 75% of trips would come from the RSI matrix and 20% would
come from matrix estimation. In the westbound direction approximately 25% of trips would come
from the pre-RSI matrix, almost 60% of trips would come from the RSI matrix and 15% would
come from matrix estimation.
9.13 From this analysis we conclude that the source of data for the majority of trips using the SBL is
observed data.

Highway Network Speed Sensitivity Test
9.14 This sensitivity test was undertaken to determine some of the uncertainty regarding the highway
model validation. The test makes adjustments to the highway network speeds to reflect the
variation in model and observed journey times. The test undertaken increased the highway
network speeds to reflect the greatest differences between modelled and observed journey times.
The adjustments are shown in Table 9.13.

9.15 Changes were made to the Without-Intervention Case and the Preferred Scheme.
Economic Performance
9.16 The TEE Table for the highway network speed sensitivity test is shown in Table 9.14. It shows
very little difference between in BCR between this test and the Preferred Scheme. As such,
changes to the highway model, reflecting concerns over validation have little effect on the results.

10. Conclusion
Forecasting Approach 10.1 A suite of three models termed the Greater Bristol Modelling Framework (GBMF) covers the
WoE’s main urban areas All three models have been developed in accordance with the
requirements for appropriate Variable Demand Modelling (TAG Unit 3.10), Modelling Public
Transport Schemes (TAG Unit 3.11) and Modelling Road Pricing (TAG Unit 3.12). The overall
structure of the G-BATS3 model is shown below (Figure 2.2).
Scheme Performance 10.2 The Preferred Scheme and Low Cost Option both have robust benefit cost ratios. The schemes
generate significant highway benefits and some public transport benefits.
10.3 Sensitivity tests have confirmed that a lower growth land use scenario would also yield significant
benefits and the investment in the scheme would still be justified.
10.4 Sensitivity tests on the highway model, the source of most of the benefits, confirm that the
modelling tools have provided robust answers.

A.1.1 Following the process set out above the trip rates generated using TRCIS2008 are presented
below in for land uses: retail; residential; and employment sub-categories B1, B2, B8.
A.1.2 Further to this, Table A1 and Table A2 respectively detail highway and public transport trip rates
for ‘other employment’. This is in response to some developments in the WEPO planning data that
are detailed per employee instead of by GFA, and therefore required trip rates per employee
instead of per 100 sq m. In addition these employment developments were not sub-categorised as
either B1; B2; or B8 and therefore the trip rates calculated were an average of these three sub-
LUs.
