1. Qualification and experience
1.1 My name is Douglas Reid. I have a BA (Cantab) degree in Engineering and
an MSc in Transport Engineering. I am a Chartered Engineer and member of
the Institution of Civil Engineers. Later in my career I gained a part-time PhD
in junction design and reducing traffic congestion.
1.2 I am a director of JCT Consultancy Ltd which specialises in traffic signals. As
well as consultancy services, JCT provides traffic signal training, and also
produces the LinSig computer program, used by most highway authorities and
consultants for the modelling and design of traffic signal junctions and
networks. I am the tutor for many JCT courses and work on the development
of LinSig for detailed traffic modelling in the UK and overseas.
1.3 Since training and qualifying as a civil engineer, I have gained 37 years of
experience in traffic and transportation. Much of this has been with local
highway authorities, involving extensive experience of traffic signal control
systems, junction design, major transport schemes and appraisals, strategic
transport modelling and the management and production of local transport
plans. I have supported key parts of this work at a number of public inquiries.

2. Scope of evidence
2.1 My evidence is solely concerned with the impact of the development on the
Hugglescote crossroads (HCR) traffic signal junction. It has been prepared in
response to the Proof of Evidence submitted by Mr Mark Edwards dated April
2012 on behalf of Bloor Homes East Midlands. It supports the response to
the same evidence by Mrs Rebecca Henson of Leicestershire County Council
regarding the impact on HCR, as well as the concerns regarding HCR as set
out in Mrs Henson’s Proof of Evidence.
2.2 I was commissioned to prepare this evidence because of doubts about the
validity of the HCR modelling in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards, his
proposed mitigation measure, and the lack of assessment of the previously
agreed higher distribution of development traffic through HCR. My evidence
specifically addresses the following matters:
• The need for a clear record of the traffic flows used to assess the impact
of the development on HCR at the disputed levels of distribution.
• The need for up to date LinSig modelling using the most recent
information on the current signal sequence and various time settings.
• A clear presentation of LinSig model results, including comparisons where
applicable with equivalent figures in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards.
• A response to the mitigation measure proposed in the Proof of Evidence
of Mr Edwards, showing how it would not be available to implement.
• A definitive assessment of the impact of the (previously agreed) higher of
the two disputed levels of distribution of development traffic through HCR.

3. Traffic flows used for impact assessment
3.1 The modelling of impacts at HCR in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards (see
Appendix L) are for the assessment year of 2020, and my evidence is all
based on that same year. The first sets of traffic flows needed for assessment
are the 2020 AM and PM base flows without the development. These were
obtained from the Savell Bird & Axon (SBA) Technical Note TN004 in its
Appendix B. The main body of SBA TN004 (without appendices) is contained
in the Evidence of Mr Edwards (see Appendix J). The 2020 AM and PM base
flows without development, together with the other flows I have used, are
shown diagrammatically in this proof of evidence (see my Appendix A).
3.2 For preparing the JCT LinSig model, the extra traffic flows arising from the
development were first calculated as if there would be a notional 100%
distribution towards HCR. These notional flows were therefore the inflows
and outflows for the whole development, and could be taken from the Proof of
Evidence of Mr Edwards (see Appendix B, Para. 2.1.3). At HCR the turning
proportions were calculated using the percentages in the Proof of Evidence of
Mr Edwards (see Appendix H, Figure 2 and Para 4.14) as follows:
• Turning to/from north (Central Road): 12.76% / 36.1% = 0.353
• Ahead to/from west (Ashburton Road): (4.47%+12.63%)/36.1% = 0.474
• Turning to/from south (Station Road): 6.24%/36.1% = 0.173
3.3 The resulting turning flows for the notional 100% distribution to HCR are set
out in my Appendix A and were entered into the JCT LinSig model of HCR to
enable any distribution percentage to be rapidly calculated and tested. The
remaining flow diagrams in my Appendix A are the disputed 8.3% and 36.1%
distributions of the development traffic added to the base flows, as calculated
within the JCT LinSig model, and used in my subsequent modelling.
3.4 For the previously agreed 36.1% distribution, the total approach traffic flow
figures in my Appendix A are very close to the figures in the SBA LinSig
modelling of the 36.1% distribution, as detailed in Appendix E of the SBA
Technical Note TN004, but not included in the Proof of Evidence of Mr
Edwards as noted above (see 3.1).

4. Basis for JCT LinSig modelling
4.1 My JCT LinSig model of HCR is based on up to date details of how the traffic
signals operate in terms of the sequence and time settings, for example the 7
secs green man time rather than the 6 secs in the SBA LinSig model. The
details are from a recent traffic signal configuration document supplied by
Leicestershire County Council (LCC). My other JCT LinSig parameters are
mainly in line with the SBA LinSig model details referred to above (see 3.4),
including saturation flows, right turn storage and non-blocking storage in front
of the north (Central Road) and south (Station Road) stop lines.
4.2 Two important differences between the JCT and SBA LinSig models are:
• For the north (Central Road) and south (Station Road) right turns, the
maximum flow whilst giving way is the standard LinSig default value of
1439 pcu/hr instead of SBA specified value of 1400 pcu/hr.
• More significantly, for both these right turns which have to give way, the
coefficient applied to the oncoming traffic is the standard LinSig default
value of 1.09 instead of the SBA specified value of only 0.01.
4.3 Regarding the second bullet above, the SBA coefficient value of only 0.01
models both right turns as if they hardly had to give way at all, and is a highly
optimistic and misleading representation of the turn behaviour. Correcting the
value to 1.09 causes a realistic accumulation of vehicles waiting to turn right
during green, and particularly from the north (Central Road) represents the
way that more than one waiting right turner will block other vehicles from the
same lane going straight on or turning left towards the development. No such
blocking can occur in LinSig with the SBA specified coefficient of 0.01.
4.4 The SBA LinSig model details referred to above (see 3.4) consist of pages
printed out by LinSig with the user of the model shown as a named officer of
Leicestershire County Council (LCC), possibly because earlier LinSig models
were supplied by LCC to assist the Coalville Transport Study (CTS), in which
Mr Edwards was involved. However, I consider it inconceivable that any LCC
LinSig modeller could have chosen to replace the LinSig default values that
should always be used for right turners giving way to oncoming traffic.

4.5 A further difference in the JCT LinSig modelling is the cycle time used in the
PM peak. With sufficient traffic demand, the current time settings allow cycle
times up to 82 secs without the pedestrian green man or 97 secs with the
pedestrian green man. This results from the PM peak maximum green times
in the recent traffic signal details referred to above (see 4.1). If two such
cycles run consecutively the overall period of 179 secs gives an average cycle
time of 90 secs. This average has been used with alternating pedestrian
green man periods in all the JCT PM peak modelling.
4.6 Whilst the existing volumes of traffic at the junction may not always extend the
cycle times to the maximums currently allowed, the JCT PM peak base LinSig
modelling, with growth to 2020 and increasing right turn blocking, shows a
level of congestion that would definitely result in the maximum allowable cycle
times. However, this modelling does not assume any growth in pedestrian
demand causing more frequent appearances of the pedestrian green man.
4.7 The JCT and SBA LinSig models in the AM peak both use the same cycle
time of 90 secs, and both have the pedestrian green man appearing in every
cycle. It should be noted that vehicles at all four stop lines are stopped at red
for the green man period, and that frequency of pedestrian demand has an
important affect on junction capacity for vehicles.

5. JCT modelling results and comparisons
5.1 The key JCT LinSig results are shown in the form of junction layout diagrams
(see my Appendix B). For each modelled scenario, the apportionment of
green time within the cycle time has been optimised to minimise the worst
degree of saturation in any lane. This worst value directly determines the
practical reserve capacity (PRC) of the junction. The LinSig optimisation at
the specified cycle time thereby maximises the capacity of the junction as a
whole. Where the PRC value is negative, there is a degree of overload at the
junction, and degrees of saturation in one or more lanes exceed the standard
practical capacity threshold of 90%, with congestion to be expected for part of
the hour or longer. PRC values therefore provide a straightforward basis for
assessing traffic signal junction capacities and development impacts.
5.2 The SBA LinSig results for 2020 without development and with the 8.3%
distribution are in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards (see Appendix L). The
SBA LinSig results for the previously agreed 36.1% distribution are in SBA
Technical Note TN004 as previously referred to (see 3.4).
5.3 The JCT LinSig PRC results, with the corresponding SBA figures in brackets,
are as follows:
• 2020 AM peak without development: PRC -5.7% (SBA -2.9%)
• 2020 PM peak without development: PRC -11.4% (SBA -12.8%)
• 2020 AM peak with 8.3% distribution: PRC -7.9% (SBA -4.5%)
• 2020 PM peak with 8.3% distribution: PRC -13.6% (SBA -7.9%)
• 2020 AM peak with 36.1% distribution: PRC -19.9% (SBA -16.1%)
• 2020 PM peak with 36.1% distribution: PRC -26.1% (SBA -18.8%)
5.4 Regarding the second bullet above it should be noted that the SBA PRC
figure of -12.8% was modelled using an average cycle time of 75 seconds and
is therefore not comparable with all the other figures at the 90 secs cycle time.
Had SBA instead used the 90 secs cycle time, a PRC in the order of -5%
would probably have been obtained. The most likely reasons for the more
favourable SBA results have been noted (see 4.2 and 4.3).

6. Lack of Mitigation
6.1 During the AM peak (see 5.3) the PRC of the HCR in 2020 would worsen from
-5.7% to -7.9% with the 8.3% distribution, but to -19.9% with the previously
agreed 36.1% distribution. The Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards contains no
proposals for mitigating any impact in the AM peak.
6.2 During the PM peak (see 5.3) the PRC of the HCR in 2020 would worsen from
-11.4% to -13.6% with the 8.3% distribution, but to -26.1% with the previously
agreed 36.1% distribution. The Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards (see 4.4.17
and Appendix L) claims to provide sufficient mitigation of the 8.3% distribution
impact by increasing signal timings in the PM peak.
6.3 The claimed PM peak mitigation is based on an average cycle time of 75 secs
without development being increased to an average 90 secs cycle time with
development (see 5.4). On this basis the SBA PRC of -12.8% at 75 secs
cycle time without development would be reduced to the SBA PRC of -7.9% at
90 secs cycle time with development at 8.3% distribution, more than mitigating
the impact of development.
6.4 The SBA average PM peak cycle time of 75 secs is based on a video survey
at the junction and is described in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards (see
Appendix J, Table 2 and 3.1.3/4). The survey recorded 48 cycles in the PM
peak hour, equating to an average cycle time of 75 secs. The SBA LinSig
modelling assumes that this 2012 observed cycle time would be unchanged
without the development in 2020. This assumption is made despite the
predicted general traffic growth from 2012 to 2020 of about 12%.
6.5 I have previously described (see 4.5) how the maximum allowable PM peak
cycle time is currently an average of 90 secs if the pedestrian stage is
demanded in every alternate cycle, but does not extend to this value under
current levels of traffic demand. The SBA observed average PM peak cycle
time therefore results from the current numbers of vehicles passing over the
approach detectors and extending the green times.
Land off Grange Road, Hugglescote Rebuttal Proof of Evidence of Douglas Reid
- 10 -
6.6 With general traffic growth of about 12% to 2020, the green times will naturally
extend year by year up to the maximum values currently set at the junction.
Without any intervention by LCC, the average cycle time will therefore
naturally extend from 75 secs to 90 secs. The 2020 PM peak PRC of -11.4%
from the JCT LinSig modelling at the 90 secs cycle time without development
(see 5.4) indicates that this cycle time will be reached without intervention
long before 2020.
6.7 Because the PM peak average 90 secs cycle time is currently allowed at the
junction and will be naturally taken up by short term traffic growth, there will be
no opportunity to implement an average cycle time increase from 75 secs to
90 secs as a mitigation measure to offset the impact of development. This
latter cycle time increase in just the PM peak is the only proposed mitigation in
the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards (see 4.4.16/7 and Appendix L).
However, he refers to the length of two consecutive cycles and describes the
increase as being from a 150 secs to 180 secs double cycle, but meaning the
same thing as the above 75 secs to 90 secs increase in average cycle time.
6.8 In summary, mitigation by increase of cycle time would clearly not be available
to implement with development because the current time settings, without any
intervention by LCC, will result in a natural increase in cycle time to the 90
secs average without any development and long before 2020.
6.9 The position at HCR with either the 8.3% distribution, or previously agreed
36.1% distribution, would therefore be one of full detriment with no proposed
mitigation if the development were to proceed. This lack of mitigation at HCR
is a key conclusion in the Proof of Evidence of Mrs Henson (see 16.7).

7. Implications of Traffic Impact
7.1 Because HCR in 2020 would be congested in both peaks without the
development, any extra traffic demand would have a disproportionate impact
on queues and delays. The 8.3% distribution would worsen the PRCs by
2.2% in both the AM and PM peaks (see 5.3). However, traffic delays would
increase to a much greater extent, as indicated by the average delays
calculated from the LinSig summary results (see my Appendix B). In the 2020
AM peak the increase would be from 84 secs to 91 secs (i.e 8%). In the 2020
PM peak the increase would be from 101 secs to 123 secs (i.e. 22%).
7.2 With the previously agreed 36.1% distribution as expected, the development
impact at HCR would be much more severe (see 5.3). The AM peak PRC
would worsen by 14.2%, and the PM peak PRC would worsen by 14.7%. In
the 2020 AM peak the delay increase would be from 84 secs to 169 secs (i.e
101%). In the 2020 PM peak the delay increase would be from 101 secs to
241 secs (i.e. 139%). Whilst 241 secs or 4 minutes would be the average
delay from all four directions over the PM peak hour, I would expect delays
well in excess of 5 mins on certain approaches for parts of the hour. All these
values of delay are the typical times that an everyday user of the junction
might expect to experience.
7.3. As regards overall queuing at the junction, the impact can most simply be
quantified by adding together the queue values for all four arms in the LinSig
summary results (see Appendix B). With the 8.3% distribution the combined
four queues in the 2020 AM peak would increase from 54 to 59 pcu (i.e. 9%).
In the 2020 PM peak the increase would be from 79 to 89 pcu (i.e 13%). With
the 36.1% distribution the combined four queues in the 2020 AM peak would
increase from 54 to 97 pcu (i.e. 80%). In the 2020 PM peak the increase
would be from 79 to 156 pcu (i.e 97%).
Land off Grange Road, Hugglescote Rebuttal Proof of Evidence of Douglas Reid
- 12 -
7.4 With the 8.3% distribution at HCR, and based on the above results, the Proof
of Evidence of Mr Edwards (see 4.4.22) is not reliable in claiming that where
the development would cause adverse impact in the future year scenario,
measures to mitigate the impact have been proposed. For the AM peak no
mitigation is proposed at HCR, and for the PM peak the proposed cycle time
increase (see 6.7/8) is currently allowed by the signal settings at HCR and will
naturally take place without the development long before 2020.
7.5 With the previously agreed and much more realistic distribution of 36.1%, the
above results (see 7.2/3) clearly demonstrate a severe and unacceptable
impact at HCR if the development were allowed to proceed as currently
proposed.
7.6 At the time of agreement to the 36.1% distribution, SBA did, but no longer,
proposed to fund an upgrade of the HCR to the MOVA method of control.
This is described in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards (see Appendix L
(4.1.1/2)). MOVA (Microprocessor Optimised Vehicle Actuation) is a more
sophisticated version of the Vehicle Actuation (VA) which currently operates at
HCR. This upgrade from VA to MOVA was claimed to reduce peak hour
delays by 13%, thereby implying some degree of mitigation.
7.7 I do not consider that MOVA would give any increase in capacity at peak
times, because it would be unable deal sensibly with the effects of right turn
blocking (see 4.3). Any lengthening of individual cycle times by MOVA above
current VA settings would exacerbate right turn blocking on the north (Central
Road) approach, apart from being detrimental to pedestrian waiting times. If
implemented, I am convinced that the maximum MOVA peak cycle times
would have to be capped at the existing maximum VA settings.
7.8 The TRL and DfT trials referred to in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards
(see 4.1.2) did record MOVA delay savings of 13% compared with VA, but
these were over the whole working day, consisting of mainly off-peak hours.
At off-peak times at HCR, when there would be no congestion, I am confident
that MOVA would reduce delays, but this would in no way go towards
mitigating the impact of the development at congested peak times.

8. Conclusions
8.1 My evidence is solely concerned with the impact of the development at the
Hugglescote crossroads (HCR) traffic signal junction. I am a director of JCT
Consultancy Ltd, who are commissioned by Leicestershire County Council to
provide full information on the development impact at this junction and
respond to the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards of Savell Bird & Axon (SBA).
8.2 Using the best available information, I have prepared an up to date LinSig
model to assess the capacity of the HCR without and with the development
and both the 8.3% and previously agreed 36.1% distributions of traffic towards
HCR. All the traffic flows used and the summary outputs of the LinSig model
are documented in the Appendices to this evidence.
8.3 Comparisons with the LinSig results in the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards
show my capacity figures to be worse in all comparable scenarios. This is in
part due to an optimistic error affecting the SBA modelling of right turners
when they have to wait in the junction giving way to oncoming vehicles.
8.4 My LinSig model results with the 8.3% distribution show a significant adverse
development impact at HCR over and above the congestion expected without
development. My detailed account of cycle time setting in the PM peak shows
that no signal timing mitigation would be available to implement as claimed in
the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards.
8.5 My LinSig model results with the previously agreed 36.1% distribution show
that the development would cause a particularly severe and unacceptable
impact on congestion at the HCR traffic signal junction. In the 2020 PM peak
average delays would increase by 139% up to 4 mins, but with delays well in
excess of 5 mins on some approaches for parts of the hour.
8.6 The findings in my evidence regarding the HCR junction fully substantiate the
position of Leicestershire County Council set out in the Proof of Evidence of
Mrs Henson, and also her response to the Proof of Evidence of Mr Edwards.

Appendix B – LinSig Result Summaries
B1 The following six pages show the LinSig summary results for the six scenarios
modelled for my evidence (see 5.3). The table at the top of each diagram indentifies
each scenario and gives the overall result in terms of PRC and total delay. The PM
peak overall cycle time shown as 180 secs is for the combination of two consecutive
cycles, one of which includes the pedestrian green man period.
B2 Each page shows a schematic representation of the HCR geometric layout with
numerical results in each approach lane indicating traffic flow (pcu/hr), degree of
saturation (%age) and queue (pcu) as referenced by the Key at the bottom of the
diagram.
B3 The delay figures in my evidence (see 7.1/2) are obtained from total delay figure
(pcu.hrs) divided by the summation of the four approach flows (pcu) to give the delay
for each pcu (hrs), and then multiplied by 3,600 to give the delay for each pcu (secs).
B4. The Each lane approaching and leaving the junction is indicated by the grey shaded
shapes with a heavy black line to one side. Each of the numbered arms consists of a
one way direction of flow. The four exit lanes show just the traffic flow, but have zero
degrees of saturation and queuing.
B5 The black lines emanating from each lane number circle indicate the allowed turning
movements (i.e. left, ahead and right). The dotted line indicate where right turners
have to give way to oncoming vehicles.
B6 The white rectangles in front of two of the lines indicate right turn storage of 3 pcu in
front of stopline with one pcu offset to the right showing the how many can wait
without blocking (see 4.3)
