We also include plenty of examples so you can see how our guidelines can be applied creatively and effectively. Our goal in these guidelines is simple: to provide a framework that makes it easy to develop clear, consistent and creative communications which reflect and reinforce our brand. These guidelines are not static and we expect them to evolve and respond to the new applications and challenges of running our business.

Updates on modernisation work are available at @My_Metro and /mymetrotw nexus.org.uk/metro M ETRO Metro Marketing design guide 4 Our vision and values There are few people living in Tyne and Wear whose daily lives are not touched in some way by Metro. It might be getting to work, or taking the children to school. It might be a day out shopping, a family trip to the coast or enjoying a night out on the town without worrying who will be driving home. We aim to provide a service which is ‘part of everyday life’. We also aim to provide, plan and promote a public transport service which can improve the economic prosperity of Tyne and Wear, and the daily lives of its people. The £350m Metro: all change modernisation programme will deliver improvements which are focused on the needs of our customers but looking to the future, will create the travel networks people will want to use in decades to come. Metro Marketing design guide 5 The Metro brand The Metro brand is how the customer identifies with us. It’s formed by a combination of factors, not just from Target audience Commuters marketing, advertising or PR, but from all areas where Leisure goers the company interacts with customers. Students Users and non-users For example, the conditions of the stations, train Brand values Brand Car users reliability, behaviour of staff and information sent out. Quality personality Modern Honest/open Progressive We must strive to communicate the same message as Positive Part of everyday all of the above factors have an impact on how our Positioning life/community customers view Metro. ‘Part of everyday life’ How people How customers want to feel The brand wheel captures these different elements want to be seen Safe which contribute to the Metro brand: Important Relaxed Valued What customers Comfortable want Security Reliable and frequent train service Information Convenience Affordability Metro Marketing design guide 6 1 About this style guide The aim of this guide is to provide total consistency for Metro information. The suggested styles within this document will apply for all information; however, there may be exceptions in some circumstances. Where this occurs Nexus will supply the approved versions. 2 Write for your audience Always bear in mind who you are targeting. Be concise. Do use: • short sentences (keep it to the point) average 15-20 words • simple, everyday words (try to use words people will be searching for) • a friendly tone (talk to your reader) - say, ‘you’, ‘we’ (it makes it sound more personal) • a friendly/welcoming tone Don’t use: • jargon or technical language • complicated words • repetition • too much detailed information/’welcome’ messages Metro Marketing design guide 7 3 DDA compliance It is important to use plain English that avoids jargon and abbreviations. For people with vision impairments the most important issues are the size of text, contrast of text against background and the avoidance of italics, stylised typefaces and capitalisation. Always left align text with a ragged right-hand edge. This keeps the words all the same distance apart. (Justified text leads to gaps that can be mistaken for the end of a sentence.) Finally, avoid the use of words that are considered unacceptable by disabled people. Not acceptable: Acceptable: The disabled Disabled people Handicapped - Wheelchair-bound Wheelchair user Disabled toilet Accessible toilet The blind Vision impaired Metro Marketing design guide 8 4 Simple words Simplicity is the key to understanding. Short words in short sentences present the audience with fewer obstacles to comprehension. For example: • Assistance - help • Numerous - many • Attempt - try • Discontinue - stop • Subsequently - later. 5 Jargon Try to avoid jargon. Try to replace it with real accessible language instead. For example, the company says the new model will cause a paradigm shift. Avoid the jargon by saying, it’s a big change in the generally accepted point of view. 6 Abbreviations Avoid unnecessary abbreviations. If you have to use abbreviations, spell out the word or explain what it is when it first occurs (eg Network Ticketing Limited (NTL), Concessionary Travel (CT)). After this it is acceptable to continue with the abbreviation. When using abbreviations, there should be no full stop. The only common exception to the rule is ‘no.’ when standing for ‘number’. Metro Marketing design guide 9 7 Capitalisation Always keep capitals to a minimum. Using too many The first word of a direct quotation which is a sentence: capital letters is distracting to the eye, spoils the Metro Director, John Brown, said: “We are determined to appearance of the page and makes reading difficult. crackdown on a minority of people who think they can get away with travelling on Metro without a ticket.” Never write in all capitals as this can be difficult for But there is no capital letter if the quotation is not a partially sighted people to read.

Green travel modes already play an important part, and their role will increase further as the Trust develops the long-term strategies for the NHS area. Prior to the development of the first Travel Plan by the Trust in 2000, access issues tended to be considered largely in isolation, with little interaction between the various stakeholders in the area.

  • 1 the Vasculum
    THE VASCULUM APRIL, 1967 Vol. LII No. 1. Price 5/per annum, post free. Edited by T. C. DUNN, B.Sc. THE POPLARS, CHESTER-LE-STREET BY THE WAY Secretaries of Societies and other contributors to "The Vasculum" are invited to send their notes to the Editor before 15th June, 1967. OBITUARY NOTICE PROFESSOR JOHN WILLIAM HESLOP HARRISON, D.SC., F.R.S., F.R.S.E. On January 23rd 1967, Professor J. W. Heslop Harrison passed away at the age of 86, at his home in Birtley. After graduating at Armstrong College, University of Durham in 1903, he became a science master at Middlesbrough High School. During these school- teaching years, he carried on with his researches in his spare time. It was not long before his abilities in field studies, in both plants and insects, became widely known. It is not surprising, therefore, to find him returning to the University as a lecturer in zoology in 1919. His subsequent rise to fame was phenomenal. In 1926 he was appointed to a personal Readership in Genetics, the only one there has ever been at Newcastle. In 1927 he was appointed to the Chair of Botany, then in the very next year he gained his greatest distinction by becoming a Fellow of the Royal Society. During all this time and indeed until only a few years ago, research papers flowed from his pen at an unbelievable rate. His name must have appeared in every journal of biological subjects at one time or another. In addition, it must be remembered that he was one of the four founder editors of the "Vasculum" in 1915, one of the founder members of the Wallis Club in 1922, one of the founder members of the Northern Naturalists' Union in 1924 and the first Vice-President of the Naturalists' Trust of Northumberland and Durham.
