Feasibility Study
4 Environment and Land
4.1
4.1.1 Preliminary assessments have been made of environmental effects (including noise, airquality, greenhouse gases, landscape, heritage, biodiversity, water environment,physical fitness and journey ambience), safety, economy, accessibility and integration.These are incorporated into the Project Assessment Report. No investigation has beenmade regarding the location of environmentally sensitive sites such as Sites of SpecialScientific Interest (SSSI) and archaeological remains.
4.1.2 Land affected by the scheme is assumed to be agricultural apart from a small area oftree planting alongside the A19 on the east side. The areas of land inside the loopshave been assumed to remain in private ownership and new access to them isprovided. It is possible that these areas may not be viable for agricultural use and mayattract additional compensation or purchase by the highway authority. Additional costsassociated with this are a risk that is covered by the Optimism Bias.
