Air quality assessment in Waltham Forest

11 June 2015

Aether has been asked to undertake an air quality assessment using dispersion modelling for a proposed development site in Waltham Forest. The development lies close to a busy junction, and the model has been set up to take into account the impacts of queuing traffic that builds up during peak hours. The work will provide the developer and the Local Authority with the information they need to make an informed decision about the air pollution mitigation options required, so that residents are not exposed to high nitrogen dioxide concentrations.
