The scheme has been under development since 2002. 1.3 The project consists of four distinct Phases. Phase 1 introduced traffic signal and associated pedestrian crossing facilities at the A4037 Dudley Road/B4517 High Street, Tipton. Phase 2 has introduced new bus stops, pedestrian crossing facilities and minor junction improvements specifically to parts of route 311. Phases 3 and 4 progress the design and implementation of the remainder of the route 311 together with the whole of the length of route 313. 1.4 This report relates solely to route 313.

Cabinet Member for Neighbourhoods 15th July 2005 Peter Whitehouse John Barton Head of Highways Head of Strategic Finance Contact Officer Dave Crisp Major Works Manager 0121 569 4162 Keith Sansom Traffic and Road Safety Manager 0121 569 4149 Bus Showcase - Route 313 (Walsall to Stourbridge) Proposals 3. Strategic Resource Implications 3.1 Funding has been made available from the West Midlands Local Transport Plan for 2001/2005 to develop the highway proposals for the Route 313 Bus Showcase within Sandwell and to date £520k has been allocated to the design and implementation of Route 311/313 Bus Showcase. 3.2 The estimated cost of implementing the works detailed in Appendix A and B is £1.3 million and this will be released from the District funds held centrally by Centro, subject to the agreement of the Network Co-ordination Group (Chief Officers administering the funds). 4. Legal and Statutory Implications 4.1 Implementation of this scheme requires Traffic Regulation Orders to support bus lanes, waiting and loading restrictions, together with notifications in accordance with Section 23 of the Road Traffic Regulations Act 1984 for signal controlled pedestrian crossings. 4.2 A future report will be presented to the Cabinet Member seeking authority for approval to instruct the Head of Legal and Democratic Services to undertake any necessary legal procedures. 5. Implications for the Council’s Corporate Priorities Transforming the physical environment 5.1 Route 313, Walsall to Stourbridge within Sandwell, travels between Tipton and Walsall, via A4037 Dudley Road, Hurst Lane, Bloomfield Road, Princes End, Wednesbury Oak Road, Gospel Oak Road, Ocker Hill, Leabrook Road, Wednesbury Bus Station, Trouse Lane, Whitley Street, Manor House Road, Myvod Road and A461 Wood Green Road to M6 junction 9, as shown on Drawing No. 33471 S/3. 5.2 This project is being developed to provide effective traffic management control to reduce congestion and provide bus priority measures. The needs of pedestrians are considered throughout the design with improved crossing and boarding facilities. 5.3 As part of the Bus Showcase philosophy, all bus shelters and stops will be upgraded to the latest specifications improving the facility and making it easier to get on and off buses. 5.4 The policy of improving public transport travel benefits all sectors of the community. Parents with pushchairs, the elderly and people with mobility problems will all find public transport interchange easier. Improvements to street lighting in the vicinity of stops will be implemented where appropriate. Increased use of public transport will reinforce community confidence and reduce fear. Implications for Young People 5.5 The ‘Bus Showcase’ standard bus stops allow passengers to enter the bus at level. This is particularly beneficial for carers with pushchairs and will hopefully encourage greater use of public transport. Use of public transport from an early age makes this method of travel more acceptable in later life. 5.6 Young people should be given every encouragement to live a more healthy life. Walking in conjunction with reliable and efficient public transport supports the sustainability of a healthy environment. 6. Background Details 6.1 On 25th January 2002, the Cabinet Member endorsed plans for public consultation showing the proposals for the 311/313 Bus Showcase route. The consultation took place during February 2002. 6.2 The views of the Wednesbury and Tipton Town Committees were sought at their meetings during February 2002. 6.3 On 22nd March 2002, the Cabinet Member for Sandwell Direct gave approval to the development of the 311 Showcase scheme, based on preliminary proposals. 6.4 The current report introduces the development of detailed proposals for route 313 and seeks approval to undertake local consultation. 6.5 The objective of the Bus Showcase projects is to provide a high quality, frequent, reliable and attractive bus service developed in accordance with Bus Showcase standards and practice. 6.6 Bus Showcase involves a quality partnership between the bus operator, who provides low floor buses and customer care trained drivers, Centro, who provide high quality shelters and the local authority, who provide bus priority measures and bus stops with raised kerbs to allow near-level boarding. 6.7 In order to ensure that bus stops are unobstructed, it is proposed to introduce road markings supported by Bus Stop Clearways for the whole of the route. 6.8 New raised kerbs with tactile surfacing will be provided at all stops. 6.9 It is proposed that bus lay-bys will be infilled, where appropriate, as they inhibit satisfactory ‘docking’ and also result in delays to buses rejoining the flow of traffic. 6.10 Where parked cars may be a problem and carriageway widths permit, ‘bus boarders’ may be provided. This involves building out the footway at the stop so that the bus can ‘dock’ with the raised kerb, enabling level boarding which particularly benefits those with pushchairs and people with mobility problems. 6.11 Emphasis is also given to the pedestrian routes for passengers by the introduction of ‘push button’ pedestrian facilities at traffic signals along the route, pedestrian refuges, zebra and puffin crossing where appropriate. 6.12 Route 311/313 runs between Walsall and Stourbridge as separate routes but travel mutually along various sections of highway within Sandwell. 6.13 The project consists of four distinct Phases. Phase 1 introduced traffic signal and associated pedestrian crossing facilities at the A4037 Dudley Road/B4517 High Street, Tipton. Phase 2 has introduced improvements specifically to parts of route 311. Phases 3 and 4 progress the design and implementation of the remainder of route 311 together with the whole length of route 313. 6.14 The current proposals are summarised in Appendix A and B and are estimated at £1.3 million and are subject to the agreement of Network Co-ordination Group. 6.15 Any unresolved matters will be the subject of a future report to the Cabinet Member.

  • (JSNA) for Children and Young People Aged 5-19 Years Old
    Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) for children and young people aged 5-19 years old Public Health Department Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council Executive summary Sandwell borough has a population of over 300,000 people, approximately 20% of whom are aged five to nineteen years old. In the decade since 2004, there was an increase in younger residents, with the number of 5-19 year olds increasing by 4.9% (2,853 persons). By the year 2026 the population of 5-19 year olds in Sandwell is projected to increase by 15.3% to 70,546 persons. Sandwell has some of the highest levels of deprivation in the country and children and young people are particularly affected; indicators of child poverty in Sandwell are worse than the overall measurements of deprivation for the borough. It is important to focus on younger people in order to tackle inter-generational worklessness, dependence on low-paid employment, and poverty as these conditions affect many families living in Sandwell. Many Sandwell residents suffer poor health outcomes, with people living more than ten years longer in poor health compared to the national average. In order to tackle the causes of ill-health in Sandwell in the long term, it is important to focus on our children and young people by supporting them to adopt healthier lifestyles at an early age, and by creating a safe, healthy environment in which they can live and thrive. This JSNA looks at seven areas which impact on the health and wellbeing of 5-19 year olds, as agreed by local stakeholder engagement.

  • Worcestershire Has Fluctuated in Size Over the Centuries
    HUMAN GENETICS IN WORCESTERSHIRE AND THE SHAKESPEARE COUNTRY I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Abet ystwyth Received7.x.66 1.INTRODUCTION THEwestern limits of Worcestershire lie about thirty miles to the east of Offa's Dyke—the traditional boundary between England and Wales —yet Evesham in the south-eastern part of the county is described by its abbot in a petition to Thomas Cromwell in as situated within the Principality of Wales. The Star Chamber Proceedings (No. 4) in the reign of Henry VII refer to the bridge of stone at Worcester by which the king's subjects crossed from England into Wales and the demonstrations against the Act of 1430 regulating navigation along the Severn were supported by large numbers of Welshmen living on the right bank of the river in Worcestershire. The object of the investigation is to ascertain whether significant genetic differences exist in the population of Worcestershire and south-western Warwickshire and, in particular, whether the people living west of the Severn are more akin to the Welsh than to the English. The possibility of determining, on genetic grounds, whether the Anglo- Saxon penetration was strongest from the south up the rivers Severn and Avon, or across the watershed from the Trent in the north, or from the east through Oxfordshire and Warwickshire is also explored. 2. THECOUNTY Worcestershirehas fluctuated in size over the centuries and Stratford-on-Avon came for a period under its jurisdiction while Shipston-on-Stour, now a Warwickshire township, remained in one of the detached portions of Worcestershire until the turn of the present century.
