ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR AND TRESPASS During the lockdown periods, many areas of the country saw increased cases of trespass and anti-social behaviour, but particularly so in the Sheffield area. This Summer Rowena will be working with Element Society, based in Sheffield, to deliver part of the National Citizenship Service Programme, it will involve promoting rail safety and positive behaviour around the railway. Problem areas are often between stations, so Rowena has also been in touch with schools in between stations in those areas to promote rail safety talks. Backtrack returns this June, with another competition, this year there is no upper age limit, providing us with the scope to engage with a wider range of people. We are looking forward to using some of the entries to further develop our Rail Safety Engagement Programme.

  • Barnsley Rail Vision 2018 to 2033
    Barnsley Rail Vision 2018 to 2033 Getting Barnsley on Track Key Messages 1 Barnsley Rail Vision Getting Barnsley on Track Foreword The 1980’s and earlier rail rationalisations were particularly savage in disconnecting Barnsley Dearne Valley and the former coalfield communities of South East Wakefield and the ‘Five towns’ from the direct inter-city and inter-regional rail network. This had the further consequence of those communities being marginalised by subsequent rail investment. Today Barnsley Dearne Valley passengers experience poor rolling stock deployed on routes with low line-speeds and journey times that compare poorly against car travel. The Barnsley Rail Vision is welcomed as setting out a strategy for re- connecting Barnsley and its neighbouring Wakefield and Kirklees communities more directly to inter-city and inter-regional rail services. Delivering the vision will enable the Barnsley Dearne Valley economy – 10th most populous built up area in the Northern Powerhouse – deliver its full potential to both Sheffield and Leeds City Regions and the Sheffield- Barnsley-Wakefield-Leeds growth corridor. We look forward to promoting to key stakeholders full awareness of the rail vision and its importance to the national and sub-national economy and urging them to ensure inclusion of its aspirations in their own infrastructure and operational investment strategies. In particular HS2, Northern Powerhouse Rail, Network Rail and inter- city/inter-regional franchise investment strategies must provide excellent, high quality services linking Barnsley Dearne Valley and its Wakefield and Kirklees neighbouring communities and into the national high speed networks. Dan Jarvis MBE MP, Mayor of the Sheffield City Region Barnsley, its Dearne Valley and western rural communities all have a place in the Barnsley Rail Vision.

Whilst decarbonisation should promote rail over road, its viability as a transport strategy relies upon safe and convenient access to and from a station. Car parking charges provide an economic incentive to find an alternative, but too often there isn’t one. Walking and cycling routes may be unsafe, whilst local buses are sadly lacking, especially in rural areas and when commuters need them. So rail campaigners should lift up their eyes and recognise that the overall journey requires a holistic solution. Roger Smith We continue with the usual roundup of news items from groups around the UK. Please keep your contributions coming: they are all gratefully received. Friends of the Far North Line To establish 'best practice' for timber transport by rail, the Scottish Government's Strategic Rail Freight Fund provided Vectra Railfreight with £195,000 to run a six-week trial from the first week of August from Georgemas Junction to Inverness and thus the nearby Norbord factory. It marks a major milestone in the work undertaken by Frank Roach of HITRANS [Highlands & Islands Transport Partnership] on the 'Branchliner' project.
