Details
This report sets out AECOM’s assessment of the engineering feasibility and estimated capital costs of constructing new crossing capacity at each of the 3 location options under consideration, as well as the feasibility and cost for providing a variant to option C (involving enhancement to the A229 between the M2 and M20).
The report documents:
- the identification of environmental, planning and engineering constraints that could affect conceptual designs
- the use of preliminary traffic forecasts to develop assumptions for road widths, standards and junction provision
- the development of conceptual designs
- the production of cost estimates
