  2. Latest figures on the average number of traffic interruptions per day due to oversize vehicles and hazardous load escorts, together with the average length of time per interruption, and the average length of time traffic is interrupted during a 24 hour period.
  3. Forecasts of the average number of traffic interruptions per day due to oversize vehicles and hazardous load escorts, and the average length of time traffic is interrupted during a 24 hour period, that will continue to occur after Option C east of Gravesend is built and operational.
LOWER THAMES CROSSING – OPTION A14
  1. Traffic analysis data, sources, assumptions, calculations, and supporting information used to determine the forecast traffic volumes that would be attracted to and make use of Option A14 (a) per day, and (b) per peak hour.
