    Patrick Derek Sturivant · Prevention of Future Deaths report

    This summary was generated using AI from the published report. Please read the original report for the complete account.

    Report summary

    Patrick Derek Sturivant was struck by a Mercedes while crossing the A303 near Byway 11 at Stonehenge on 29 August 2014 and died in hospital the following day from an unsurvivable brain injury. The concerns were that public use of the area near Byway 11 for parking and viewing Stonehenge created a risk of similar deaths, and that closing or modifying Byway 11 could shift the risk to Byway 12.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Foreseeable displacement of the Byway 11 safety hazard to the Byway 12 connection with the A303

    Wider context from the report

    “(2) Even if the above proposal is adopted in co-operation with the National Trust and Wiltshire Council I have however a further concern that in my view it is reasonably foreseeable that the problem currently associated with the area adjacent to the point at which Byway 11 joins the A303 will move approximately 390 metres west to the point at which Byway 12 connects to the A303. I know the area well and I can just see the problem shifting to this particular location and that concerns me from the point of view of the prevention of future deaths as if not addressed at this point could again lead to another fatality occurring in similar circumstances following the closure of Byway 11. I heard evidence from ████████ that Byway 12 is actively used as a green lane and I am fully aware that any modification to Byway 12 due to its use as a connecting green lane between the A303 and the A360 is likely to be highly controversial and political but that does not remove the concern that I have that there in my view is a reasonably foreseeable risk in the future if the terminal end of Byway 11 is closed. It is within in mind and having considered the matter further after the inquest that I have included in the list of recipients of this Regulation 28 Report, The Department of Transport and English Heritage. The reason for this is of course last year the issue of the A303 generally in this area, having regard to the A344, has prompted a review of the highway infrastructure in this area from the point of view of diverting the A303 or indeed as regards the funding of a tunnel through which the A303 would pass underground in the vicinity of the Stonehenge Monument and I would therefore like my concerns relative to the issues raised in this report relative Byway 11 and Byway 12 south of the A303 to be taken into consideration. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Public use of the northernmost Byway 11 area as a car park or stopping point

    Wider context from the report

    “(1) At the end of the Inquest I heard live evidence from ████████ who had prepared a helpful Traffic Management and Road Safety Assessment. I have enclosed a copy of that report with this letter as it includes helpful diagrams and maps to help explain the issue. He gave evidence having visited the scene that indications of activity on Byway 11 would appear to be limited to the area in the immediate vicinity of the A303 itself being used by the public as a car park or a stopping point so as to enable the occupants of vehicles, as indeed was the case with Pat and his passenger, to get a better view of the Stonehenge Monument lying to the north of the A303. Clearly the public are using this area in this manner and I am therefore concerned that there is a risk of future deaths occurring in similar circumstances if action is not taken. It was not ████████ opinion that the rest of Byway 11 was being actively and frequently used as a green lane. Byway 11’s current designation is as a BOAT (Byway Open to All Traffic). In Highway Law the right of the public to use such a right of way is to pass and repass along it. The right does not extend in the absence of an emergency to parking. ████████ explained that discussions have taken place with the owner of the land, The National Trust and also with Wiltshire Council Rights of Way Department and their legal team with a view to possible closing of the terminal 600 metre section of Byway 11 laying immediately south of the A303 and the Stonehenge Monument, downgrading Byway 11 down to a Bridleway and then diverting the bridleway along a current permissive path on National Trust Property so that the diverted Right of Way will then join Byway 12 approximately 400 metres south of the A303. The explanation and a plan are found on the final page of ████████ Report. I can entirely see the logic of this proposal and fully support the proposal as a means of addressing my concern relative to the area at the northernmost point of Byway 11. Such a modification would stop this area being used as a car park so as to facilitate free viewing access to the Stonehenge Monument. ”
