The transport assessment comprised a comprehensive range of measures. These included a detailed access strategy, assessment of traffic distributions, evaluation of junction capacity, legal discussions on rights of access, review of pedestrian and cycle facilities, implementation of traffic calming measures along Frame Lane, and ongoing collaboration with Staffordshire County Council highways officers.
