Download Original Attachment Subject to assurance Great Eastern Man Line Upgrade Programme (SOBC) Executive Summary This Strategic Outline Business Case (SOBC) is presented to obtain the commitment and approval for the development of the Great Eastern Main Line (GEML) Upgrade Programme, which proposes the application of Digital Technologies as part of a system-wide upgrade. Conclusions and Recommendations There is a case for Traffic Management and Connected Driver Advisory Systems (C-DAS) on the Anglia Route, independent of ETCS, delivering route-wide performance benefits. The costs and benefits of this option should be investigated further for implementation in CP6 (2019 - 2024). This aligns to Anglia Operating Strategy and Route Study and performance targets. The development of Traffic Management and the decision support tools (such as C-DAS, stock and crew, Incident Management and Customer Information Systems) build on the skills and experience already developed as part of the Romford Traffic Management 1st Deployment on Essex Thameside. There is a strategic fit with this deployment team’s knowledge being retained and their learning being used to support the next phase of deployment. The deployments of Thameslink, Cardiff and Romford Traffic Management Systems should be used to validate estimated performance benefits and capture lessons learnt. The package of conventional infrastructure and ETCS without signals is good value for money if rolling stock fitment costs are shared as part of a wider programme and if timing is aligned more closely to renewals in CP7 (2024 - 2029). The package delivers capacity to increase the train service on the GEML. The conventional alternative to deliver the same output, including an additional track between Chelmsford and Stratford, does not provide value for money. To deliver ETCS in CP7 development of the ETCS components would be required in CP6, and the rolling stock would need to be fitted. Developing an integrated programme between the conventional enhancements, digital enhancements and train operator investment is recommended. Capacity enhancements on the GEML could be phased to provide incremental benefits: o CP6: Bow Junction remodelling, dependency to unlocking additional peak paths, and enables an additional 3 peak paths; o CP7: Package of conventional and ETCS enhancements to provide capacity to enable a further 4 peak paths. To develop the Anglia Digital Programme towards OBC will require £10 to 20 million. This does not represent a full commitment to deployment, but rather the start of the next stage of development. Following the completion of the SOBC for the Anglia Route, the Digital candidate projects across the network will be reviewed together to understand linkages and priorities. Elements of this business case may also be prioritised for earlier delivery and therefore development tranches. Strategic Case The East of England has seen the fastest growth in employment outside of London in recent years and contributes significantly to the UK economy. For this reason, the GEML on the Version 1.0 Page 3 of 112 Issued: 28 April 2017 00SOBC-NWR-REP-MPM-000300 Great Eastern Man Line Upgrade Programme (SOBC) Anglia Route is of vital economic importance. Due to its strategic location, passenger growth is expected to rise by 75% from 2011 to 20431 . The new Greater Anglia Franchise is introducing higher capacity rolling stock which will increase peak seating capacity by 9%. However, demand is forecast to grow during CP6 and CP7 and crowding will continue without additional train services. Providing capacity to meet the demand forecast is constrained by current infrastructure. Bow Junction remodelling is a deferred CP5 scheme. Despite the additional capacity provided by the Greater Anglia Franchise, the Bow Junction remodelling scheme is still required to meet forecast growth and is a key dependency to running additional peak paths proposed in this SOBC. Increasing the train service robustly above 26 tph is limited by the signalling headway between Chelmsford and London Liverpool Street. ETCS would reduce the headway and would avoid the need for additional track, the delivery of which would be disruptive and expensive. ETCS in combination with a package of conventional infrastructure enhancements would provide capacity for 27 tph peak services, meeting demand growth to the late 2020s. Providing an all-day London to Norwich in 90 minutes and Ipswich in 60 minutes service is a key aspiration for the Route. The proposed package of ETCS with conventional infrastructure enhancements would provide capacity in the off peak for these fast services to operate with stopping and freight services. The Anglia Route is a mixed traffic railway with much of the Route two-track. During disruption it is easy for delays to be quickly transferred between services with few regulation points available to for signallers to manage the service. Traffic Management systems automate tasks that would otherwise have to be carried out manually by the signaller, and makes communicating changes to the plan more straightforward between the controllers and the signaller. Traffic Management gives greater visibility of regulating decisions over a wide area of control, which reduces reactionary delays, and improves passenger and freight customers’ experiences. The real time information provided by the Traffic Management system can be linked to other decision support tools which when combined could provide further benefits. Economic Analysis: Delivery of Traffic Management and C-DAS on the Anglia Route offers medium value for money: o A benefit cost ratio of 1.5-2; o Net Present Value of £50-£100 million. Options to deliver ETCS without signals offer better value for money than with signals. The package of conventional enhancements and ETCS without signals with the rolling stock fitment shared across a programme offers high value for money: o A benefit cost ratio between two to four; 1 Network Rail (2016) “Anglia Route Study” p4 Version 1.0 Page 4 of 112 Issued: 28 April 2017 00SOBC-NWR-REP-MPM-000300 Great Eastern Man Line Upgrade Programme (SOBC) o Net Present Value of £600-£700 million. The case strengthens if the timing if pushed back to align with renewals. The conclusions of the value of money of ETCS options are very sensitive to whole life cost assumptions. The whole life costs of the option will need to be explored in detail at the next stage of development to address this uncertainty. Commercial Case: There is high appetite for Digital Railway amongst the rail supply chain. Close and collaborative work with the supply chain is essential to the success of the Digital Railway Programme. Financial Case: There are opportunities which need to be explored at the next stage to introduce new private finance sources into the rail industry, to bring down the overall financial requirement. Management Case A delivery model (“thin client”) has been identified for the route to adopt and progress with the support of the Digital Railway team. This model will manage risks going forward, particularly the development of Digital Railway applications (ETCS and Traffic Management), which will need to be delivered at the same time as the current plans for conventional signalling renewals. Further developments at OBC stage: C-DAS, stock & crew systems, the interface with Customer Information Systems and Incident Management Systems should all be developed as part of Traffic Management. These form the complete suite of support tools to collectively improve the operational of the railway and will provide additional benefits not quantified in this SOBC. Explore options to connect the Traffic Management and C-DAS deployments on Essex Thameside and Cross-London Routes, and the radial Route from London, due to the benefits for freight services. Explore options around fitment of the ETCS in-cab equipment for the passenger trains and also to share costs of freight train fitment with other deployments (e.g. the East Coast Main Line South). Explore opportunities to focus the train service specification assumptions for additional services with a view to reduce operating costs yet maintain benefits. This approach may further improve the value for money of the package of ETCS and conventional works and should therefore be explored. Automatic Train Operation needs to be tested to understand if it is required, feasible and whether there is a value for money case. Further work to assess the option benefits including capacity assessment based on the new franchise proposals, development of train service specification as well as assessment of wider benefits.

Norfolk Rail Prospectus Foreword Norfolk’s Prospectus The Future of Rail Today Foreword by Cllr Graham Plant Norfolk County Council Cabinet Member for Planning and Transportation I am pleased to present this rail prospectus for Norfolk. For too long Norfolk has been at the end of the line for rail investment, despite it being clear that improvements are needed so to boost the county’s economic prospects. However, I believe that this picture is changing. MPs from across East Anglia have supported us – with other local authorities and the Local Enterprise Partnerships – in our overarching vision for rail; set out in the Greater Anglia Rail Prospectus. The rail industry is beginning to take notice and is working with us on developing and delivering various improvements across the area. The coalition government too, is listening. We were extremely pleased that their recent statement (on HLOS, the High Level Output Specification) included money for an upgrade to rail infrastructure in Ely, a crucial junction in the rail network for passenger and freight services out of the county. The overarching prospectus for the Anglia region included our priorities: faster journey times, with more capacity, between London and Norwich; half hourly journeys from London to King’s Lynn; and half hourly journeys between the great university cities of Cambridge and Norwich.

    EB/046 Anglia Route Study Long Term Planning Process Summary Document March 2016 2 Anglia Route Study: Summary Document March 2016 The Railway in Anglia The railway in Anglia plays a vital role in the region’s economy, providing links between communities and employment, industry and markets, and conveying nationally important freight flows from ports where container traffic arrives in the UK. The rail industry has delivered more trains, reduced delays and improved safety, at the same time as improved efficiency and value over the last 20 years. Over the next 30 years more and more people are expected to travel by train, and more freight traffic is forecast to come off the road and onto the railway. This presents significant challenges which are explored and options to address them presented in the Anglia Route Study.

  • Environment Development and Transport Committee Item No
    Environment Development and Transport Committee Item No. Report title: Update on Strategic rail issues Date of meeting: 19 January 2018 Responsible Chief Tom McCabe - Executive Director, Community Officer: and Environmental Services Strategic impact This report updates Members on strategic rail issues for the county. These are important because they affect the longer term provision of rail services that benefit business, residents and visitors. Good rail services encourage businesses to invest in the county, facilitate business to business interaction and provide services enabling people to get into work. They are also important for leisure trips, boosting tourism by allowing people to get to Norfolk, or for Norfolk residents to get elsewhere; as well as to bring forward sustainable growth and easing road congestion. Executive summary The first part of this report examines how the county council deals with strategic rail issues. The purpose of the review was to examine the range and scale of the county council’s activities, and to understand how the county council might be able to become more efficient and effective in its business. The review does not recommend any major changes to the way in which this work is dealt with, but suggests that the Norfolk Rail Group be charged to consider how it could improve its effectiveness. We should seek to strengthen our advocacy role to wield more influence over decisions to benefit the county, and how we could better ensure that the rail industry performance is accountable. The second part of the report updates Committee on a number of strategic issues. The main points are government’s recent Strategic Vision for Rail, proposed amendments to timetables affecting King’s Lynn services, national spending programmes and consultation on community rail.

  • Norfolk Rail Prospectus
    2020 Norfolk Rail Prospectus Draft Norfolk Rail Prospectus 2020 Executive Summary Rail is vitally important to the county of Norfolk. There has been an increase in passenger numbers at 24 of the 31 stations within Norfolk in the last five years. Rail provides links for business and leisure trips to London, Cambridge, Peterborough and other major centres. Rail also serves important commuting links, especially into Norwich from Sheringham, Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft. The population of Norfolk is forecast to grow and there is a large amount of housing and jobs growth planned in the county. People are becoming increasingly mobile, travelling further for leisure trips or into work, we expect rail usage to increase even further. This will increase the need for further investment into rail to ensure that it can rise to the challenge. Norfolk County Council works closely with the rail industry, stakeholders and rail users. The Council understands the existing issues and the pressures likely to surface in the future. This prospectus sets out what we feel is required to make sure that rail can serve the needs and expectations of passengers, and to ensure that it continues to support Norfolk’s economy and helps deliver the housing and jobs growth planned. Our priorities include: • Faster journey times on all routes • Half hourly frequencies on the King’s Lynn to London and Norwich to Cambridge lines • Earlier and later trains on all routes • Station and accessibility improvements • New track capacity at Ely and on the Norwich to London line • New station near Broadland Business Park in Norwich • New passenger services between Cambridge and Oxford (East West Rail) • Dereham to Wymondham mainstream passenger line in the longer term Across the network This section summarises what the county council considers is required across the whole of the network to ensure that rail can effectively serve the needs of people and businesses.
