Thank you for your January 2012 letter seeking support for the above scheme. Portsmouth’s LSTF bid is most welcome. The measures will make a big difference to strengthening Portsmouth’s economy, creating growth, and contributing to the man-made climate change mitigation. As one of two Portsmouth CTC right to ride representatives, I fully support the LSTF bid to reduce levels of private motor transport through practical and feasible measures, to increase the proportion of journeys made by bicycle for the following reasons: • It will enhance the development of a sustainable transport system in Portsmouth. It will help make Portsmouth a cycle-friendly city . Portsmouth’s flat and compact geography makes it ideal for active travel modes for residents, commuters and visitors, and encourage shift from personal car use. The National Highways and Transport Survey 2011 highlights the need to fill important gaps in the national cycle network in Central Portsmouth and provide additional cycle parking across the city. The measures will be important in promoting rail-cycle trips. • It will build on successful initiatives to promote cycling as part of the Healthy Pompey Project. This resulted in: o Publication of popular local themed ride leaflets, guided rides. 50,000 leaflets were distributed. o 4947 under 10s received cycle training; II o Access2cycling (A2C) days to encourage businesses to encourage their employees to cycle to work. 8 major employers, 5 colleges and the university took part. o Setting up of a successful bike recycling scheme (now being run by Portsmouth Cycle Forum). 1228 people participated in the bike recycling scheme. • It will help boost Portsmouth’s economy: Healthier employees encouraged to cycle more will benefit their employers through reduced absenteeism, lower turnover rates, improved productivity and employee morale, and lower health care costs. • It will help boost Portsmouth’s retail economy – Switching to the bicycle means that visitors will have significantly more money to spend – the green pound. Research shows that high street turnover increases after investment to improve the public realm. People who travel to the shops on foot, by cycle or by public transport spend as much if not more than those who travel by car (Local Transport White Paper, 2011). • It will help boost Portsmouth’s tourist economy: Cycle tourism in the UK is currently valued at £635 million per year. Encouraging cycle tourism can encourage utility cycling. Many people rediscover cycling on holiday or as a leisure activity, and are encouraged to cycle more for other purposes. Portsmouth is a gateway ferry port used by many cycle tourists. This role needs maximising. • It will improve health via active travel : The health benefits of cycling are well known and include maintaining healthy body weight reducing associated health risks, prevention of falls and osteoporosis, and mental health and well-being. • It will reduce congestion and deliver environmental benefits: More cyclists mean fewer cars on the road, less pressure for car parking in work and residential areas, less congestion, and reduced emissions. • It will help boost Portsmouth social cohesion: Cycling promotes enhanced social cohesion as areas become progressively traffic free, and improved health and physical fitness result when undertaken as regular exercise. • The bike hub will increase cycling in and around the city. It will: o Enable people who work in and visit the city centre. o Overcome a major barrier to cycling, the fear of theft. o Offer outreach, information and training to promote safe and responsible cycling. o Engage new people with cycling and introduce them to its economic, health and environmental benefits. o Benefit visitors/ tourists by providing hire bikes, information on routes and acting as a centre for guided rides. (Leicester Bike Park in Leicester Town Hall has achieved 81% growth in commuter cycling (2004 to 2009) and 10,500 daily city cycle journeys.) o Be a resource for advice, bike servicing and repair. o Provide opportunities for employment training. o Be a PCC “shop window” as a Premier green healthy –cycling- Waterfront City. III • Cycling is an anti-poverty measure: Cycle ownership is a measure in “Poverty and Social Exclusion in the UK: The 2011 survey and the Europe 2020 Poverty Measurement.” Portsmouth has the lowest car ownership in Hampshire. These proposals support and encourage people to use low cost healthy travel by bike for work, education, leisure and shopping and avoiding worklessness. Cycling plays a part in sustainable energy security: Cycling plays a part in energy security against the backdrop of the global recession and the challenge of man-made climate change. PCC plans that present some clear solutions to ever rising energy costs, dependency, and reduced energy reliability are further welcomed and supported. CTC is particularly keen to support the bid by working with the City Council to : • Set up University and City Centre Cycle Hub : The CTC has much national and local experience, resource and advice to implement best practise in setting these up. • Promote cycling in Portsmouth : CTC works with Portsmouth Cycle Forum, nationally and at European level. CTC is able to promote Portsmouth as a cycling destination, and also as an infrastructure resource for best practise. I look forward to supporting Portsmouth City Council in delivering the transport improvements you propose, and securing long-lasting greener healthier aspirations for the City. Yours sincerely, Hilary Reed Hilary Reed CTC Portsmouth Right to Ride Representative. IV 9th February 2012 Pam Turton Assistant Head of Traffic and Street Management Portsmouth City Council Civic Offices Guildhall Square Portsmouth PO1 2NE Dear Ms Turton, Portsmouth’s Local Sustainable Transport Fund Bid ––– A Sustainable and Connected Centre Thank you for your letter of the 6th February, inviting Cascades Shopping Centre to indicate support for the above scheme. The proposed measures will complement and add value to a variety of short and longer-term initiatives designed to make Portsmouth a more attractive place to live, work and visit. These include the development of the proposed Northern Quarter development in the City Centre, the Tipner Park and Ride scheme, and public realm / development proposals for The Hard Interchange, Guildhall Square, and Portsmouth and Southsea Station. Portsmouth’s LSTF bid is most welcome. The proposed package will play a vital contribution in strengthening Portsmouth’s economy and creating jobs. In particular, it will: • Help attract employers to Portsmouth, and inincreasecrease the skill level of employees - Many employers report that higher qualified employees do not see Portsmouth as an attractive place to live and work. Currently, competing businesses and business relocations to outside Portsmouth attracts higher calibre staff. Reducing traffic congestion is essential in encouraging business to choose a city centre location and road schemes to improve internal circulation around the city centre, such as those attached to the Northern Quarter scheme, are most necessary, as is Park and Ride . • Accessibility - Ensure workers are able to access the jobs available in Central Portsmouth, by a variety of modes, and are not deterred from working in central Portsmouth. • Strengthen Portsmouth’s retail and tourist economyeconomy – The overall attractiveness of Portsmouth as a retail and leisure destination is diminished by the dispersed nature of the Central area (with Gunwharf Quays, the City Centre and Southsea seen as separate destinations). Measures to make it easier to travel around Portsmouth (such as more visible public transport, walking and cycling links, and better information) will help Portsmouth compete with other primary retail and leisure destinations in the region. • The opening of the new Mary Rose Museum in AAAutumnAutumn 20201212 – An even greater number of international and domestic visitors are expected to visit Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. A clear and visible transport network will be essential in encouraging them to stay and spend money at the wide variety of other attractions that Portsmouth has to offer. The proposed measures will
