Hampshire County Council Executive Member-Environment 21 January 2005 Environment Policy Review Committee 21 January 2005 Proposed Capital Programme 2005/06 to 2008/09 and Revised Transport Capital Programme 2004/05 Report of the County Treasurer and Director of Environment |
Item Item 7 |

1. Summary
1.1 This report updates progress on and proposes further amendments to the 2004/05 integrated transport capital programme (Appendix 1), and proposes the capital programme for 2005/06 to 2008/09 (Appendix 2).
2. Introduction
2.1 The following guideline limits were set by Cabinet at its meeting on 13 December 2004 for the locally resourced programme for the Environment Service:
£000
2005/06 11,369
2006/07 11,369
2007/08 11,369
2008/09 11,369
2.2 The guidelines include an addition of 2.5% for inflation, in line with the non-pay inflation assumption for the revenue budget. However, Executive Members have been requested to identify cashable efficiency savings of up to 1.25%. The target for savings relating to this service's locally resourced capital programme are:
£000 | |
2005/06 |
139 |
2006/07 |
139 |
2007/08 |
139 |
2008/09 |
139 |
2.3 Any efficiency savings that are required would be delivered by top slicing the inflation allowance included in each component of the locally resourced programme and by prioritising the allocation of the remaining budget over schemes.
2.4 Executive Members may vary the guidelines between years provided their total four-year guideline is not exceeded and bunching of payments in any one year or front-loading is avoided.
2.5 Executive Members may propose supplementing their capital guidelines under the `prudential framework' agreed by Cabinet at its meeting on 24 November 2003, thereby integrating more closely decisions on revenue and capital spending in support of Corporate Aims. The additions may include:
(i) virement from the Executive Member's revenue budget; and
(ii) temporary unsupported borrowing to provide bridging finance in advance of capital receipts or other contributions, with the cost of servicing the unsupported borrowing in the interim being met from the Executive Member's revenue budget.
2.6 In addition, Executive Members may also propose schemes funded from:
(i) use of Executive Member's share of capital receipts obtained in 2003/04 as allocated by the Cabinet in June 2004 (if not already used for the 2004/05 programme); and
(ii) anticipating their share of capital receipts obtained in 2004/05 provided the receipt has actually been received.
2.7 The level of Government support for transport capital works for 2005/06 is £27,456,000, which is a decrease of 12% compared with the equivalent figure for 2004/05. In addition, the Government has made available a further £6,600,000 in 2005/06 for the A3 Bus Priority Corridor project, which was accepted as a major scheme on 28 October 2003.
3. Capital Programme 2004/05 - Progress and Proposed Amendments
Transport
3.1 The programme for 2004/05 is proposed to be amended to accommodate early completion of bridge parapet works, Local Transport Plan (LTP) support for an environmental improvement, and schemes slipping into 2005/06 and beyond.
3.2 Resources for integrated transport in 2004/05 were set at £15.8 million in the LTP settlement of which £2.1 million has been re-allocated to the roads and bridges maintenance programme leaving £13.7 million to spend in 2004/05. It is proposed that a further £0.7 million be transferred to enable urgent safety work on bridge parapets to be completed in this financial year. Planned spending on integrated transport will therefore total £13 million in 2004/05.
3.3The current forecast expenditure for the completion of schemes in the pre 2004/05 programmes is £2.8 million. The balance of £10.2 million will be spent implementing the revised 2004/05 programme and preparing for future years' programmes. Expenditure will be monitored and carefully controlled to ensure the overall resource is not exceeded.
3.4 Since the December report, eight schemes have slipped into 2005/06. These are:
Andover Station to Town Centre Cycle Scheme
Pennington Cross to Belmore Road, Lymington
Rookes Lane, Lymington
Gosport Urban Improvements
A27 Botley Road, Hedge End
A27 Corridor Traffic Management and Pedestrian Crossings
Hayling Billy Route Stage 2 (Havant Station)
Water Lane, Totton.
3.5 Two schemes from the casualty reduction programme, namely A325 Bucks Horn Oak and A30/A327 Hartfordbridge Flats, have been deferred to 2006/07.
3.6 The A33/A339 Popley Way, Basingstoke project is part of a strategy associated with development in the area which feeds directly onto the A33 national primary route. The strategy comprises three junction improvements with a total cost of over £10 million funded from a combination of developers' contributions and LTP support. The County Council is developing a transport model which will be used to assess the likely requirements for this corridor in the light of potential longer term development and transport changes. It is proposed therefore to hold this commitment until detailed studies have been undertaken.
3.7 A programme of strengthening bridge parapets at road/rail interfaces is currently underway. Initially a sum of £1.2 million was allocated to this programme in 2004/05 and an additional £0.25 million was subsequently added to accelerate the programme to reduce the risk of accidents. For the same reason it is proposed that the programme be completed in 2004/05 by allocating further resources of £0.7 million from this year's provision for Government supported expenditure. In order to ensure the completion of these works within the financial year, it is proposed that the existing contract with Raynesway Construction Southern Limited (RCS) is extended. RCS has a partnering arrangement with the parapet supplier that ensures that materials and other resources are available to complete the works on programme, which could not be guaranteed if re-tendering occurred. RCS's original tender was significantly lower than the next conforming tender price, and therefore a competitive price for the additional works can be assured.
3.8 It is proposed to contribute £70,000 from the LTP integrated transport programme towards the Country Towns Initiative project for Hythe Promenade which will benefit pedestrians in this area.
3.9 It is proposed to add the Safer Routes to Schools programme to the list of block allocations already controlled on an `expenditure' basis rather than on a `starts' basis. It is considered to be a more practical way to control the lump sums allocated to programmes like this which contain a large number of small schemes at various stages of development and implementation.
3.10 It is proposed to add £30,000 to the 2004/05 pedestrian crossings programme to improve facilities and access for people with disabilities.
3.11 The proposed changes would mean a revised 2004/05 LTP funded capital programme for integrated transport totalling £14,861,000 (Appendix 1). The revised spending plan for integrated transport for 2004/05 is now £13.0 million and for maintenance and bridges, the LTP funded forecast is now £19.2 million. These figure are consistent with the forecasts submitted in the 2004/05 LTP Annual Progress Report.
Regeneration of Older Urban Areas 2003-2005 Programme
3.12 Established in 1984, the Regeneration of Older Urban Areas (ROUA) programme is an ongoing Hampshire County Council led initiative that responds directly to the regeneration needs and priorities identified by County Council Members. The programme is managed to implement landmark projects to raise the quality of life of all who live, work and visit urban areas. All projects are designed to demonstrate the benefits of making the best use of land and property; high quality design; long life solutions and materials; and appropriateness to the local sense of place. The ROUA programme responds directly to the urban renaissance agenda and is a continuing objective for the County Council.
3.13 The ROUA 2003-2005 programme was approved by the Executive Member for Environment on 23 July 2003. The programme includes future phases of major regeneration projects initiated under previous ROUA programmes and new schemes brought forward in partnership with local authorities where there is agreement about the objectives and details of the scheme. The projects are:
£
(i) The Square, Hamble 125,000
(ii) Town Quay, Fareham 175,000
(iii) Waterfront, Warsash 329,000
(iv) Town Centre, Yateley 300,000
(v) Town Centre, Havant 125,000
(vi) `Old Totton' 300,000
3.14 Scheme development, planning or design work has started on all the projects in the programme. Match-funding is being negotiated for all the projects and has already been secured from the relevant districts for planned work at Hamble, Fareham and Havant.
3.15 Project appraisals for Rumbridge Street in `Old Totton' and Shore Road, Warsash have been approved and work will commence respectively in January and September 2005. A further project appraisal for Rumbridge Street, setting out a second phase of the joint RUOA and LTP £1.1 million scheme, will be presented for approval early next year.
3.16 A first phase of work at The Square, Hamble, was completed in spring 2004 in partnership with Eastleigh Borough Council. Proposals are being prepared for a major second phase to start on site in January 2006. Consultants have been appointed to support the development of scheme details for a first phase at Yateley. It is planned to begin implementation in autumn 2005.
3.17 The ROUA 2003/05 programme also includes a budget allocation for Town Quay, Fareham and Havant town centre. Feasibility work is currently underway for the Town Quay area and it is hoped that a joint scheme with Fareham Borough Council will start towards the end of 2005. Hampshire County Council and Havant Borough Council have jointly commissioned consultants to prepare long term planning and design guidance for Havant town centre and it is expected that projects will come forward next year for implementation utilising the Borough Council's Liveability Fund award.
Villages Initiatives Programme 2004-2006
3.18 The Hampshire Villages Initiative (HVI) was approved by the Executive Member for Environment on 13 July 2004 and 7 December 2004. The current two year programme allocation is £160,000. The programme includes environmental improvements identified in partnership with local communities, either as `stand alone' works or as additional works to planned highway works, in accordance with criteria approved for the programme.
3.19 The projects are:
£
(i) Ashford Hill 15,000
(ii) Bishopstoke 7,000
(iii) Easton 3,000
(iv) Headley 6,500
(v) Horndean 50,000
(vi) Hursley 5,000
(vii) Hurstbourne Tarrant 10,000
(viii) Ibsley/Moyles Court 5,000
(ix) Kimpton 5,000
(x) Little London 15,000
£
(xi) Mottisfont 1,800
(xii) Rowlands Castle 3,250
(xiii) South Warnborough 3,000
(xiv) Steep Marsh 3,000
(xv) West Liss 17,450
(xvi) Wherwell 3,000
3.20 Scheme development, consultation, planning or design work has started on all the projects in the programme. Conditions are being negotiated for all the projects and have already been secured from the relevant parishes and districts for works planned at Bishopstoke, Hursley, Ibsley/Moyles Court, Kimpton, Wherwell and West Liss.
3.21 Contributions for projects with highway related works will be awarded from a £40,000 Highways Maintenance budget recently ring-fenced to enable the HVI programme. It is anticipated that the full allocation for the HVI will be expended to programme.
Country Towns Initiative Programme 2003-2006
3.22 The Country Towns Initiative (CTI) programme was set up in 1990 to respond to the conservation and regeneration needs of the rural towns. Sixteen major town centre schemes of environmental enhancement have been implemented in 14 rural centres with seven further schemes proposed.
3.23 The programme reflects Government and County Council corporate strategies towards conservation, economic regeneration and reinforcing sustainable, small and rural centres. It acts as a catalyst to inspire further investment in the locality by emphasising quality, responding to local needs and helping to create a climate of future confidence. Works include street scene enhancements, improving safety and making the town centres more attractive places in which to live, work and shop. The popularity of the Initiative has been well acknowledged, and a number of local and national design awards have been received. It works closely with the County Council's programmes for highways improvements and promotion of market town economies.
3.24 The CTI programme for 2003/06 has a current allocation of £768,000 which was approved by the Executive Member for Environment on 24 June 2003 and 15 October 2003. The programme will attract external funding and link to and influence other council and local authority budgets for schemes valued at approximately £2.7 million. The following programme includes further funding for major schemes initiated under the previous programme, together with new schemes promoted in partnership with local authorities:
£
(i) Hythe Promenade 118,000
(ii) Romsey, Church Place 279,000
(iii) Alton town centre 25,000
(iv) Fordingbridge, Market Place 10,000
(v) Andover, High Street 50,000
(vi) Odiham town centre 230,000
(vii) Swanmore centre 50,000
3.25 Works for improving Hythe promenade were put out to tender by New Forest District Council but unfortunately tenders came in higher than expected. On 12 October 2004 the Executive Member for Environment agreed that the design should be reviewed to achieve cost savings and that additional funding sources be sought. A revised scheme and funding package to the value of £771,000 is to be considered by the Executive Member for Spatial Strategy on 21 January 2004. Works at Church Place, Romsey at a project value of £395,000 have been successfully completed and an opening to coincide with the completion of other Romsey town centre highway improvements was held in November 2004.
3.26 Footbridge and associated works at Alton town centre are completed. A public sculpture as part of the wider Fordingbridge, Market Place highways scheme was completed and opened in a ceremony in April 2004. Further minor landscape works are planned to be implemented early in 2005. Works to the historic forecourt and setting of Andover Guildhall, linked to Test Valley Borough Council's £1.14 million improvements to the Andover High Street, are soon to go out to tender and are also expected to start early in 2005.
3.27 Proposals for improvements to The Bury, Odiham and Swanmore centre are at the feasibility stage in consultation with local representatives and interests, and are expected to be implemented towards the end of the programme period.
4. Capital Programme 2005/06 to 2008/09 - Locally Resourced Schemes
4.1 The guideline figure of £11.369 million per annum for locally resourced programmes include allocations for Structural Maintenance of Non-Principal Roads, Environmental Improvements, including the Country Towns Initiative, Regeneration Of Older Urban Areas, Hampshire Villages Initiative, Landfill Sites Remedial Works and Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs). The allocations for 2005/06 are:
(i) £9,575,000 for Structural Maintenance of Non-Principal Roads;
(ii) £406,000 for Environmental Improvements;
(iii) £921,000 for Regeneration of Older Urban Areas;
(iv) £82,000 for Hampshire Villages Initiative
(v) £61,000 for Landfill Sites Remedial Works; and
(vi) £324,000 for Household Waste Recycling Centres.
4.2 In addition it is proposed that the share of capital receipts obtained in 2003/04 totalling £7,000, as allocated by Cabinet in June 2004, be used as contributions to private street works.
4.3 It is not proposed to add any schemes under the `prudential framework'. There is however the potential for funding some street lighting column replacement works under the private finance initiative (PFI) in 2005/06 and action is being taken to consider the opportunity for making a PFI bid.
4.4 A transfer of £238,000 from the locally resourced capital provision for structural maintenance has been made to cover a base budget increase of £238,000 in the four-yearly average of winter maintenance expenditure, in accordance with the special budgetary arrangements for this activity. This transfer is reflected in the programme totals shown in the detailed capital programme appendices.
5. Capital Programme 2005/06 to 2008/09 - Schemes Supported by Government Approvals
Local Transport Settlement 2005/06
5.1 On 2 December 2004 the Government Office for the South East wrote with its assessment of Hampshire's LTP Annual Progress Report (APR) submitted in July 2004 and its allocation of resources (attached as Appendix 3). Relative to other local transport authorities, the County Council's performance in 2003/04 was assessed as "above average".
5.2 The total block allocation is £27.456 million, comprising £13.492 million for integrated transport and £13.964 million for maintenance. This compares with indicative allocations of £13.492 million and £7.893 million respectively, notified in the December 2000 LTP settlement. Funding provided in the block allocation must be used within the 2005/06 financial year, although there is flexibility in terms of how it is used (eg sums identified for integrated transport may be spent on highways maintenance and bridges and vice-versa).
5.3 The County Council has also been allocated funding of £6.6 million in 2005/06 to continue work on the A3 Bus Priority Corridor which was accepted as a major scheme by the Government on 28 October 2003. The funding is split 50% (£3.3 million) of Section 56 grant which is ring-fenced to the A3 project and 50% (£3.3 million) supported capital expenditure, which, because Hampshire is a CPA rated "excellent" authority, has been issued as un-ring-fenced Single Capital Pot SCE(R).
5.4 The Government is working with the County Council on revised proposals for the South Hampshire Rapid Transit (SHRT) project. These are being considered on the basis of their value for money, including their wider benefits and affordability. Consequently no funding has been provided for the project in 2005/06 at this time.
Transport Resources 2005/06 to 2008/09
5.5 The County Council's transport schemes are funded by Government, either through specific grant and credit approvals (for schemes costing over £5 million) or through the general allocation of credit approval in the local transport settlement (for schemes costing less than £5 million).
5.6 The new programme has been produced on the basis that, from the £27.456 million available for 2005/06 through the LTP process, £14.614 million will be spent on highway maintenance and bridges and £12.842 million on integrated transport. The total for highways maintenance supported from Government approvals is £650,000 higher than the indicative allocation included in the local transport settlement. This is to compensate for an equivalent transfer from the locally resourced capital programme provision for structural highways maintenance to the revenue budget. This transfer, which covers additional transport policy related expenditure on marketing, to support behavioural change, technical studies and sub-regional strategies modelling, was originally made in preparing the 2004/05 revenue budget and has been continued in the construction of the revenue base budget for 2005/06.
5.7 Resources beyond 2005/06 are still uncertain although the Department for Transport has given an indicative maintenance allocation of £14.601 million for 2006/07. By 2006/07 a new `formula' system will be introduced for integrated transport and the maintenance formula may be reviewed. For planning purposes it has been assumed that the allocations for future years will be £15 million for maintenance and £13 million for integrated transport. Consequently only indicative block allocations have been identified beyond 2005/06 in the detailed capital programme summaries.
5.8 The new 2005/06 programme totals £12.53 million for integrated transport and with commitments brought forward from 2004/05 and development costs for future years' schemes the spending plan forecast for 2005/06 is £12.8 million. The programme level has been set on the basis that a planned commitment of £4.7 million will be carried forward into 2006/07. The programme will be managed so that the 2005/06 spending plan will be met which means that some 2005/06 schemes will be started late in the financial year.
Major Transport Schemes
5.9 The A3 Bus Priority Corridor project was accepted as a major scheme by the Government on 28 October 2003. It will continue through 2005/06 to be funded from Government resources of £6.6 million made available specifically for the project in the year and carry on into 2006/07, at a total cost of £25 million.
5.10 The Government is continuing to work with the County Council on revised proposals for the SHRT project. No decision on funding or a possible start date can be anticipated at this time.
5.11 The programmes proposed in this report have been prepared on the basis that there is no requirement for the LTP block allocation to provide funding for the SHRT project. Should this prove not to be the case, then amendments to the programme may be necessary.
Other Major Scheme Provisional Programme
5.12 The programme will be reviewed as part of the LTP preparation.
5.13 It is proposed that the improvements in Totton will be carried out in stages and funded from the LTP programme. Preparatory work will continue on the other major schemes which are listed below:
Chickenhall Lane Link Road, Eastleigh
Stubbington Bypass
Botley Bypass.
It is however too early to be able to determine when these schemes are likely to commence on site, and they have therefore not been included in the proposed four year programme.
Highways Maintenance and Bridges
5.14 The proposed LTP funded programme for 2005/06 is for £14.614 million, comprising £11.114 million for highways maintenance and £3.5 million for bridges. Details of the programmes will be presented to the Executive Member in March.
Integrated Transport
5.15 The proposed new programme is very much based on the draft programmes presented to the Area Transport Strategy Panels in the autumn. Each of the schemes was assessed against criteria based on Hampshire County Council's LTP objectives, its Corporate Objectives and the Government's ten year transport objectives of Economy, Environment, Accessibility, Safety and Integration. The Area Transport Strategy Panels supported the programmes as submitted.
5.16 There are amendments proposed for the following reasons:
(i) Additional schemes have been added or brought forward where they are specifically related to the County Council's Public Service Agreements with regard to promoting bus patronage and reducing road accident casualties. These schemes promote the LTP objectives of safety and promoting travel choice. They also support the County Council corporate objectives relating to maximising life opportunities through improved accessibility, stewardship of the environment by promoting alternatives to the car, economic prosperity by assisting access to employment and the promotion of safe and secure communities as well as directly enhancing services, eg for public transport users.
(ii) In some cases LTP resources have been added to ensure that schemes largely funded from external contributions can be implemented in accordance with the legal agreements made with the developers.
5.17 The planned LTP spend comprises:
£ million
Casualty Reduction 3.0
Public Transport 2.8
Walking and Cycling 2.3
Traffic Management 2.0
Safer Routes to Schools 1.5
Road and Junction Improvements 1.0
Monitoring Equipment, etc 0.2
Total Integrated Transport 12.8
LTP Maintenance and Bridges 14.6
5.18 The programmes from 2006/07 onwards are part of the second LTP process and will be closely related to the objectives and targets (both mandatory and optional) included within that LTP. The Area Transport Strategy Panels are shortly to be consulted on a scheme assessment mechanism as part of the preparation of the new LTP and this will help the preparation of the new programmes and their contribution to transport and wider corporate and national targets and objectives.
Waste Management
5.19 A notional £50,000 for each year has been included for environmental control schemes at landfill sites funded from SCEs.
Coast Protection Act
5.20 A notional £100,000 for each year has been included for contributions to coast protection schemes promoted by District Councils which likewise will be funded from SCEs.
Corporate Aims
5.21 The proposed programme for 2005/06 to 2008/09 supported by Government approvals contribute primarily to Aim 2 Stewardship of the Environment and Aim 4 Building Strong and Safe Communities, as well as to Aim 3 Achieving Economic Prosperity and Aim 1 Maximising Life Opportunities, particularly in the social accessibility area. Much of the programme is directly related to Improving Services (Aim 5) especially in the public transport field.
6. Developer Funded Programme
6.1 Schemes wholly or partly funded by developers' or other contributions are included in the programme, with details in Appendix 2. The programme totals £7.7 million for 2005/06. The programmes for 2006/07, 2007/08 and 2008/09 are anticipated to be in the region of £6 million per annum. Schemes have only been included where there is reasonable confidence on funding security and programme dates.
7. Waste Management Programme
Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRC)
7.1 The annual HWRC capital programme from 2005/06 has increased from the guideline figure of £324,000 to £1,000,000 as agreed by Cabinet in July 2004, the balance to be funded from a combination of capital receipts and anticipated Government support (through the Waste Management Performance Reward Grant).
7.2 The additional financial support will enable higher recycling targets to be achieved and allow for much needed investment in the network. A number of existing sites are small and are struggling to cope with public demands. Additionally some sites only benefit from temporary planning consent and in specific areas of the county provision is limited or non existent.
7.3 The increased funding will enable a number of these issues to be put right over the next three years or so, and at the same time the intended average recycling rate will increase from 44% in 2003/04, above 50% and towards a local target of 60% for the HWRC network by the end of the decade.
7.4 Over the next three years, plans for new sites in Romsey, South West Basingstoke and Fleet will be progressed, subject to the availability of funding. The cost of these three projects alone will be around £3 million unless land can be secured (with the aid of District Councils) at less than market value. The Romsey development would replace the small and inadequate Casbrook site and will serve a greater number of Romsey residents as well as householders from North Baddesley and parts of Chandler's Ford, eg Valley Park. The planned new developments in South West Basingstoke and Fleet are both in areas where "service gaps" have long been recognised.
7.5 The above network improvements, funded from local resources, will complement the £1.25 million of investment from the National Waste Recycling and Minimization Fund award, secured from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) last year.
7.6 Three improvement schemes are already planned from this source of funding. These include a significant project at the central Basingstoke site in Wade Road which will see its present capacity doubled, as well as smaller but never the less important expansions of the sites at Hartley Wintney and Alton. It is hoped that up to £0.3 million of funding will still be available after these improvements, with projects at Andover, Marchwood or the Waterside presently considered as potential new schemes.
Facilities Management
7.7 The annual capital programme for facilities management is currently £61,000 and will need to deliver pollution control works at closed unlicensed landfill sites and pollution control/remediation works carried out at closed licensed sites managed under the contract with Hampshire Waste Services. This area of waste management is increasingly under pressure with a growing requirement to manage risk. New and strengthening regulations, increases in planning requirements, along with a consistent lack of investment in infrastructure have all led to an increased demand for investment.
7.8 The current allocation will allow waste management to deliver a minimum programme of short term solutions for closed landfills in Hampshire (excluding the Efford site). Every effort will be made to maximise external funding sourced through Government borrowing approvals (previously Supplementary Credit Approval) although it is recognised that not all capital works, particularly those related to landfill gas management and planning requirements, will be eligible for this type of funding.
7.9 In order to manage risk and avoid continuously increasing revenue and capital costs in this area, it is necessary to deliver long term solutions for closed landfill sites in Hampshire. This is not possible under the current capital allocation and work is being undertaken to develop an alternative programme.
8. Capital Programme Summary
