Herne Bay, Kent Ryse Hydrogen
Mosodi was appointed to provide specialist transport planning services in support of a proposed Hydrogen Electrolysis Production Facility in Herne Bay. The 2,100 sqm facility is designed to produce clean hydrogen fuel to support decarbonisation of the regional transport network. Our work included the preparation of a Transport Statement, a Framework Travel Plan, and inputs to the Environmental Statement (ES), ensuring the development aligns with planning policy, sustainability goals, and local transport considerations.
Background
The proposed development forms part of a wider push toward clean energy infrastructure in the UK, with hydrogen production recognised as a key enabler of future-ready, low-emission transport. Located in Herne Bay, the site offers strategic access to the local vehicular network. Mosodi was commissioned to assess the transport impacts of the scheme and demonstrate how the project would integrate into existing infrastructure without adverse impacts, while supporting long-term air quality and climate targets.
Outcomes
Mosodi’s transport planning work demonstrated that the proposed hydrogen facility could operate efficiently with minimal impact on the surrounding road network. The Transport Statement and Framework Travel Plan ensured that all vehicle movements were accounted for and managed appropriately. The development is set to contribute directly to cleaner transport by producing hydrogen fuel that supports low-emission vehicle use, aligning with broader air quality goals and regional sustainability targets.
