Consultation Proposals

Benefits

At Moto, we are proud of the work we do to lead the way in transitioning to clean, sustainable energy and make a lasting impact on the communities around our sites. 

Our proposals for Junction 16 will deliver the following key benefits: 

  • At least 150 new FTE jobs from operation, prioritising employing local people where possible.

  • £30m investment into the local economy.

  • Improved road safety through providing a new place for motorists to stop, refresh and refuel.

  • Providing 50 much needed new EV charging spaces, with the site future-proofed to deliver more as demand and grid capacity grows. In a strategic location on the M4, this new EV Super Hub will support the transition to EV and reduce range anxiety for motorists.

  • Helping to decarbonise the road network through reducing petrol and diesel vehicles, ensuring cleaner air for future generations.

  • 62 new HGV spaces to address the critical local shortage, helping to prevent parking in lay-bys or at industrial estates and providing HGV drivers with much needed welfare facilities.

  • c.12.5% biodiversity net gain, delivered through onsite enhancements and thriving wildlife habitats.

  • A highly sustainable development, incorporating a living green roof and solar panels to generate renewable energy onsite.

  • Commitment to support local community through charitable works.
