This includes factors such as the speeds, flows and accident rate before and after the scheme.The monitoring process also considers feedback from interested parties and other feedback and processes such as Road Safety and Quality Audits.Newport Works Road Safety £150k £150k 0 £150k 0 £150k July 2013 December 2013The scheme employs of a combination of traffic signs, road markings, surface treatment and the provision of a fifty miles per hour speed limit (subject to the Traffic Regulation Ordermaking process). The traffic signing element consists of:• Enhanced warning signing of double bend at Ty’n-y-Ffynnon• Enhanced warning signing of narrowing and bend at Machen bridge• Improved signing of eastbound crawler lane at Machen Farm• Improved direction signing at Lower Machen• Enhanced warning signing of the junction at Maypole Lane.The fifty miles per hour speed limit will extend from the existing thirty miles per hour speed limit at Rhiwderin to Plas Machen, near Machen bridge.Road markings consist of:• Installation of permissive/prohibitory centre lining and reflective road studs• Installation of coloured surfacing material and central hatching on approach to Machen Bridge.Finally, high friction surfacing material will be installed Ty’n-y-Ffynnon.Anticipated benefits of the scheme are:A 60% reduction in the total number of KSI casualties in the five years to the end of 2014 by comparison with the 2007 to 2012 total.A 33% reduction in the number of 17 – 24 year old casualties in the five years to the end of 2014 by comparison with 2007 to 2012 total.A 33% reduction in the total number of slight casualties in the five years to the end of 2014 by comparison with the 2007 to 2012 total.In terms of the motorcyclist category, a separate target has not been identified simply because the KSI category is composed of a significant proportion of motorcyclists, 60% of the total.See prioritisation tool.Monitoring of casualty statisics to be undertaken at regular intervals following scheme completion.Torfaen Works Road Safety £7k £7k 0 £7k 0 £7k June 2013 September 2013This scheme will provide central hatch carriageway markings along the length of this road, which when constructed as part of Cwmbran as a new town between the late 1950-70’s,provided a road with generous carriageway width similar to many residential areas throughout Cwmbran. The central hatching will visually narrow the carriageway along its entire lengthand will be in combination with either gateway or warning signage where deemed necessary. The scheme forms part of, and builds on, an area wide programme to implement these typesof measures across the Cwmbran ‘New Town’ area.The introduction of the carriageway markings (central hatching) along the entire length of the road will physically and visually narrow the carriageway width in order to reduce vehicularspeed. The application of the markings will also ensure that the road layout/markings are consistent and/or of a similar nature to that of other similar local distributor roads in the area.See prioritisation tool.Speed monitoring loops have been deployed on this road to collect ‘Before’ speed/volume data and similar ‘After’ monitoring will be undertaken approximately 1-2 months after schemecompletion.Torfaen Works Road Safety £10k £10k 0 £10k 0 £10k November 2013 February 2014This scheme will provide new warning signage, lining and pedestrian guardrailing along a section of the road where there are concerns over excessive vehicular speed, pedestriancrossing safety and inappropriate parking outside and in the vicinity of local shops.The introduction of these signs and markings will narrow the carriageway and warn motorists of potential hazards to be encountered along this section of the road and will be in addition to,subject to statutory procedures, proposed parking restrictions the Authority will be promoting shortly.The installation of pedestrian guardrailing will prevent pedestrians from crossing thecarriageway at a dangerous or inappropriate location(s) and deter on-street parking directly outside the shops.See prioritisation tool.speed monitoring loops have been deployed on this road to collect ‘Before’ speed/volume data and similar ‘After’ monitoring will be undertaken approximately 1-2 months after schemecompletion.Blaenau Gwent Works Road Safety £10k £10k 0 £10k 0 £10k June 2013 September 2013
