These have been developed significantly over the past 30 years, largely by the efforts of local organisations such as Balsall Heath Forum and St Paul’s Community Trust. Many local people have been involved in constructive processes by which the social, environmental and economic conditions of Balsall Heath have been improved. People are used to being consulted, and this has been to the advantage of the NDP, which has used existing networks as a basis for the various stages of consultation. 1.2 Consultation processes have been consistent with the City Council’s policy Statement of Community Involvement (2008), which sets criteria and methods by which citizens are enabled and encouraged to be involved in planning issues.

  • Bus Rationalisation Appendix 1
    Technical note Project: Birmingham Bus Stop To: Matthew Till / Danny Gouveia Consolidation Subject: 6 Draft Report From: Andy Clark / Anna Little / Tim Colles Date: 21st July 2017 cc: Adrian Taylor 1. Introduction Atkins has been commissioned by National Express West Midlands to undertake a study investigating the scope for bus stops on several routes in Birmingham to be rationalised. This is in response to growing concern from National Express West Midlands and Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) regarding increasingly long and unreliable bus journeys in the West Midlands. Bus patronage is dropping sharply as congestion increases. The average speed of buses has reduced by 3% (Birmingham-wide) between 2014 and 2016 with patronage reducing by 4% in response. These delays are amplified at peak times with buses 13% slower in the morning peak and 10% slower in the evening peak. The time that passengers spend on the bus impacts the likelihood of passengers using the bus in the future. An increase of in-vehicle time of 10% will result in a 5% reduction in journeys made. Reducing in-vehicle time will have the opposite effect, with additional passengers drawn to the route. This demonstrates the importance of journey times in determining whether a passenger chooses to make a journey by bus and the sensitivity associated with changes in journey time. The increases in road congestion are a major cause of the increase journey times. To an extent, without significant infrastructure spending or a marked decrease in car usage, this is out of the direct control of the bus operators. However it is prudent to look at how services are routed to ensure that passengers are getting where they need to be expediently and without unnecessary delay.
