Constraints
The owner intends to vacate the property for the duration of the works. There will be some
alterations to the incoming services where they pass through the basement works. We will maintain
a “live” connection of the utilities; gas, water, electricity and drainage for the Phase 1 and Phase 2
works. All of the Utilities have been contacted to establish positions of all live services and copies of
location plans / photographs are attached. The electrical connection is to be re-located and a
quotation has been obtained from UK Power Networks.

CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN
We set out in this section our proposed Traffic Management Plan based upon guidance headings
provided by the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea.
2.1
Route for access and egress of construction vehicles
We will establish the following proposed traffic route for construction vehicles to and from the site;
Approaching the site:
•
Vehicles will approach from Holland Park Avenue
•
From Holland Park Avenue turn into Ladbroke Grove
•
From Ladbroke Grove turn left into Lansdowne Road
Departing the site:
•
Vehicles will leave from 61 Lansdowne Road
•
Will turn left into Lansdowne Rise
•
From Lansdowne Rise will turn right into Lansdowne Crescent
•
From Lansdowne Crescent turn right into Ladbroke Grove
•
From Ladbroke Grove into Holland Park Avenue
We have appended a map plan showing the above routing of traffic.
The routes indicated above can accommodate the vehicles that will visit the works. The proposed
works to the house are comparatively minor.

CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN
61 LANSDOWNE ROAD
Access arrangements to site
We would envisage and request during the Phase 1 works for the parking bay area directly in front of
the property, 61 Lansdowne Road to be suspended.
During this phase the typical vehicles to visit will be:•
6 and 8 wheel grab trucks – these will be used for the removal of the debris from the
demolition of existing vaults structure and for disposal of excavated material.
•
6 wheel concrete truck – to be used for concrete pours to foundation, new basement slab,
new walls and ground floor slab.
•
Medium size material delivery trucks
The timetable for deliveries and removal vehicles will be between 10am and 4pm.
During the Phase One, (forming basement) there will be a hoarding erected in the road around a skip
for the purposes of removing excavated spoil and debris. A conveyor belt will be installed at high
level over the pavement and be fully enclosed, thus allowing the pavement to remain in use.
During Phase Two deliveries, concrete pours and the removal of debris and waste materials, whilst
the construction vehicle sits in the road directly outside 61 Lansdowne Road, the footpath will be
temporarily closed using movable barriers. A banks man will be in attendance to re-direct
pedestrians to the opposite footpath.
2.3
The estimated number of vehicles
We anticipate during the Phase 1 works the average number of vehicles over the period would be
one per day, with a maximum per day of three.
For the Phase 2 works which is a soft refurbishment of the existing property, we anticipate an
average of one vehicle per day over the duration of the works, with a maximum of three vehicles.
The typical vehicles delivering to the property in this phase will be smaller i.e. vans and open back
trucks.
For waste material and debris removal this would be undertaken as “a fixed skip surrounded by a
hoarding as described above with the skip sizes being a mix of 6 yard and 8 yard skip.
2.4
Details of the vehicle loading area
During Phase One only there will be a hoarded skip immediately in front of the property which will
be removed once the Phase One works are complete. Our proposal for the hoarding around the skip
and conveyor is as the attached hoarding proposal photographs (attached).

CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN
61 LANSDOWNE ROAD
During the Phase Two works the hoarding will be removed and this parking space will be cordoned
off with temporary barriers to allow access as and when required for deliveries. As the proposed
works are comparatively small in nature and the volume of traffic as mentioned above in Section 2.3
will be minimal.
2.5
Details of vehicle call-up procedure
The Main Contractor’s Site Manager will be responsible for arranging and co-ordinating deliveries to
the site to ensure the site is clear;
Phase 1 – the intention is to suspend in the parking bay directly in front of the property to ensure
there is space for the construction vehicle and it does not block local residential traffic.
Phase 2 – the intention will be not to suspend the parking bay as Phase One, but temporary block
the bay as and when required, the vehicles for this phase will be smaller, lighter and less frequent.
The area directly in front of the property will be temporarily “coned-off” in good time prior to the
arrival, so to minimise disruption to residents parking.
2.6
Estimate for type of parking suspension
The existing and current parking facility directly outside the property is “residents parking” bays.
The house to the left of the property has a drop kerb leading onto a drive. The access will be
maintained clear at all times, to prevent any inconvenience to the next-door neighbour.
In Phase One we estimate a requirement to suspend the “residents parking bay” directly outside the
property for a period of sixteen (16) to eighteen (18) weeks.
2.7
Details of diversions, disruption and use of public highway
We will retain the footpath open, the only time the footpath will be temporarily closed, will be for
concrete lorries, grab trucks and deliveries where the Main Contractor’s banks-man will direct
pedestrians.
The Contractor will take note of local rubbish collection to ensure this not disrupted, or collection
prevented to properties.
2.8
Utilities
We have obtained copies of local utility service routes and enclose with this plan copies of the
layouts provided by them. In the case of British Telecom they went to site and marked out the

location of their services which have been transposed on to the site location plan. The relevant
utility companies will be contacted prior to any works being carried out where services run within or
near the area to be excavated. Prior to any excavation all existing services will be mapped, located
and made known to the workforce.
Supplies will be retained to the property during the works and the gas and electricity meters
relocated to suit the new structure at the front elevation at lower ground level.
2.9
Works Programme
We are currently working on a project programme but the major dates are as set above in the
introduction namely;
•
Phase One – Anticipated timeframe: between 1st May 2013 and 30th Aug 2013
•
Phase Two – Anticipated timeframe: between 1st May 2013 and 20th December 2013
The site operating hours will be 07.30 to 17.30 Monday to Friday. Operatives will arrive to the
work-face at 07.30. Noisy work will not take place outside of the hours between 08.00 and 16.00.
2.10
Site Plan Boundary
We confirm the works are contained with the boundary of the property.
2.11
Main Contractor
Symm & Co with Box Associates will arrange to meet with the Royal Borough of Kensington and
Chelsea to review and reaffirm the agreed Construction Traffic Management Plan.
2.12
Residents/neighbours
It has been made aware to us that there has been numerous construction projects in Lansdowne
Road, which have caused a level of inconvenience and disruption to the vicinity and therefore the
site management of this project will communicate with the neighbours so they are made aware of;
vehicle movements, particular noisy works and works that impact visibility i.e. external scaffold,
hoarding as well as any other issues that are likely to cause any inconvenience.
2.13
Complaints Procedure

Monitoring of Construction Traffic Management Plan
The monitoring of the CTMP will be in the first instance by the Site Manager and the Contract
Manager. Any supplier / subcontractor not following the requirements of the CTMP will be warned
as to their behaviour of their driver and that any subsequent misdemeanours may result in the
cancellation of their contract. The Site manager will check the traffic route on a regular basis and
liaise with contractors on other developments along the route when major deliveries are being
planned so as to avoid problems with access and deliveries to this and other sites.
2.15
Instructions on the CTMP to Suppliers / Sub-Contractors and Site visitors
We appreciate the area is a heavily residential environment, so we will instruct all delivering
suppliers / sub-contractors to follow the traffic management plan. A copy of the agreed traffic route
will be issued as part of the sub-contract/supplier terms and conditions of contract and every
supplier/ sub-contractor will be expected to comply with all of the contractual terms and conditions.
Anyone found not following the instructions will be reprimanded with sanctions applied for any
repeated offences. Deliveries will be managed (by the site manager) to avoid vehicle stacking. The
site manager will also liaise and advise the neighbours in advance of major deliveries that may affect
traffic flow.
All Site visitors will be asked (if visiting by private vehicle) to find parking away from the site and use
public transport wherever possible.
