1. Approach and Methodology
Context
1.1 This technical background report supports the analysis of how people are
travelling within South East Wales, made in Emerging Conclusions and Chapter
4 of Summary Background.
1.2 The South East Wales Transport Model (SEWTM) is a multi-modal disaggregate
transport model of the South East Wales Area. It comprises highway and public
transport assignment models linked together by a policy-responsive variable
demand model. It was built by a team led by Mott MacDonald between 2015
and 2017 and has a base year of 2015. The model is owned by Welsh
Government, managed by Transport for Wales (TfW) and operated by a team
led by Mott MacDonald.
1.3 The Fully Modelled Area (Figure 1) consists of the local authorities of Neath
Port Talbot, Bridgend, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Vale of Glamorgan, Cardiff, Merthyr
Tydfil, Caerphilly, Blaenau Gwent, Torfaen, Newport and Monmouthshire.

Figure 1: SEWTM Study Area
1.4 The model was built to provide a strategic analysis tool for assessing a wide
variety of transport and policy interventions. In particular, its relative strengths
are to:
understand the current travel patterns and the performance of the
transport system
predict future travel patterns and conditions on the transport network
assess the impacts of possible interventions in the transport system in a
consistent manner
assess the impacts of land use changes such as new housing developments
and employment locations in a consistent manner
provide inputs required for transport appraisals and business case
development
provide data required for development control work
1.5 The SEWTM has been used to identify the patterns underpinning the main
travel movements in the South East Wales Transport Commission (SEWTC)
study area, which covers highway, bus and rail trips.1 This has been done by
investigating movements across eight screenlines in the model.
1.6 It should be noted that SEWTM model outputs used in this report do not
account for the removal of the Severn Bridge tolls. The model is currently being
updated to reflect this. Whilst we expect traffic volumes to have increased as a
result of this change, we do not expect the overall distribution of origin-
destination movements to have been altered.
Screenlines
1.7 Model outputs are summarised based on the screenlines in Figure 2 below. Any
highway, bus or rail trip which crosses these lines was extracted. Details of all
the links included in each screenline are given in Section 9.
1 Walk/cycle trips are represented in the demand model but have not been included in this report.

Figure 2: Baseline Screenlines
Methodology
1.8 Figure 3 shows how the Fully Modelled Area was split into different sectors
(geographical zones). The sector system is largely based on local authority
boundaries in South East Wales.
1.9 Trips were assigned to the transport network based on where they start and
finish (i.e. origin and destination).
1.10 The following analysis was completed:
Trip purpose split of vehicles crossing a screenline at different times of the
day, summarised in Sections 2 and 3
Trip lengths of vehicles crossing a screenline, summarised in Section 4
Modal share of bus, highway and rail crossing a screenline, summarised in
Section 5
Trip lengths of vehicles crossing a screenline at different times of the day,
summarised for each screenline in Section 6
The top five origin-destination movements between sectors crossing a
screenline are identified with coloured arrows in Section .
More detailed analysis of trips crossing a screenline between SEWTM
sectors is shown on choropleth maps in Section 7 and 8. These show trip
numbers in terms of trips per km2 over 24 hours (measured per vehicle for
highway movements and per person for public transport movements)2
