General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)

On 25 May 2018, the UK General Data Protection Regulations (UK GDPR) became law. The law requires National Highways to explain to you – consultees, stakeholders and customers – how your personal data will be used and stored.

National Highways adheres to the government’s consultation principles, the Planning Act 2008 and the Highways Act 1980 as required and may collect personal data to help shape development of highways schemes.

Personal data collected by the project team will be processed and retained by National Highways and its appointed contractors until the scheme is complete.

Under the UK GDPR regulations you have the following rights:

  • right to restrict procession or to object to processing
     
  • right to data portability

If, at any point, National Highways plans to process the personal data we hold for a purpose other than for which it was originally collected, we will tell you what that other purpose is.

We will do this prior to any further processing taking place and we will include any relevant additional information, including your right to object to that further processing. You have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, the Information Commissioners Office.

There is a non-technical summary (NTS) of this report too. To read a copy of our PEIR or NTS, please visit m60-junction-18-simister-island-interchange.

7. To what extent do you agree or disagree that our proposals will minimise the impacts of construction?

More information: minimising construction impacts

We’re continuing to look at how we’ll build the project as we develop our proposals, and this includes looking ahead to what happens during construction.

We’re working closely with landowners and stakeholders, including Bury Council, to identify potential construction impacts and the measures that we’ll use to reduce them. We’re also looking to reduce disruption and the number of lorries delivering or collecting materials.

Where possible, we’ll also re-use excavated materials from the existing landscape. More information on our plans for construction can be found on page 9 of the consultation brochure.
