PlusBus is a combined rail and bus ticket offering customers train travel and unlimited bus travel around their origin or destination station in one easy transaction. It’s available for over 260 stations nationwide. Tickets can be sold from any National Rail station ticket office, rail appointed travel agent or selected telesales offices. Season Tickets available PlusBus tickets are available for one day, with Season Tickets available for 7 days, a month, 3 months and a year for many PlusBus stations. PlusBus can be added to period return tickets if customers say what date they are coming back and a separate PlusBus ticket is sold for the return date. How do I issue PlusBus tickets? For rail journeys to PlusBus stations, ask customers if they want PlusBus for travel around their destination station. Then: ● Select Origin/PLUSBUS (+BUS) Destination/Route for the journey. ● Where a through fare is shown, issue the ticket in the usual way. ● Where a through fare is not shown (for example, if it says ‘no fare available’), issue the rail ticket and a separate PlusBus ticket from the destination station. All PlusBus fares are included in the latest ticket issuing systems. ● If customers are not returning the same day, they can buy an additional PlusBus ticket dated for their return travel day. ● Customers can buy PlusBus tickets for bus travel around stations at the beginning and/or end of their rail journey. ● Usual rail discounts apply to children and Railcards for day PlusBus tickets. ● Holders of Privilege travel facilities, Status Passes, All-Line & Regional Rail Rovers and BritRail passes can be issued with PlusBus tickets, without discount. Remember,for London a separate one day bus pass must be issued – please refer to instructions in the RailLinks Manual. What do I offer customers? Get to know PlusBus stations and areas covered that people travel to from your station. Is there a shopping centre, tourist attraction, business park or college in PlusBus station zones to help you persuade customers to buy PlusBus? Customers\ also like to buy PlusBus, especially Season Tickets, if they make journeys to or from stations with very busy car parks or if there is road traffic congestion around stations.

    Essex Rail Strategy 2006-2011 and Beyond now we’removing informing, engaging and inspiring Foreword Essex Rail Strategy – 2006-2011 and Beyond ‘I cannot think of a higher priority for the County Council than for it to strive to achieve a first class highways and transportation system for all who live in, work in or visit the county of Essex. The challenges in front of us are enormous. Over 130,000 new homes are being proposed for Essex and its borders with surrounding authorities, the travel needs of which will have a direct impact on the transport network in Essex. All aspects of passenger transport will play a key role in delivering this vision. The County Council has therefore produced three daughter strategies to support the Local Transport Plan, focusing on how passenger transport will contribute towards a fully integrated transport network. The Road Passenger Transport, Bus Information and Rail Strategies outline the ways in which we intend to improve the lives of Essex people by addressing traffic growth, road congestion and improving public transport. They contain measures aimed at improving options for travel and access to services to develop a more effective transport network. To produce the strategies the County Council has consulted widely at regional, district and parish level, with key service providers, a wide range of user groups and the general public so that collectively they represent a tangible commitment by Essex County Council to make our County a better place to live and work and to support a decent public transport network. I am committed to delivering a transport system that meets the challenges we face in Essex and look forward to working in partnership with stakeholders to bring about the transformation we now need.’ Councillor Rodney L.

  • Members and Parish/Neighbourhood Councils RAIL UPDATE
    ITEM 1 TRANSPORT COMMITTEE NEWS 07 MARCH 2000 This report may be of interest to: All Members and Parish/Neighbourhood Councils RAIL UPDATE Accountable Officer: John Inman Author: Stephen Mortimer 1. Purpose 1.1 To advise the Committee of developments relating to Milton Keynes’ rail services. 2. Summary 2.1 West Coast Main Line Modernisation and Upgrade is now in the active planning stage. It will result in faster and more frequent train services between Milton Keynes Central and London, and between Milton Keynes Central and points north. Bletchley and Wolverton will also have improved services to London. 2.2 Funding for East-West Rail is now being sought from the Shadow Strategic Rail Authority (SSRA) for the western end of the line (Oxford-Bedford). Though the SSRA have permitted a bid only for a 60 m.p.h. single-track railway, excluding the Aylesbury branch and upgrade of the Marston Vale (Bedford-Bletchley) line, other Railtrack investment and possible developer contributions (yet to be investigated) may allow these elements to be included, as well as perhaps a 90 m.p.h. double- track railway. As this part of East-West Rail already exists, no form of planning permission is required; however, Transport and Works Act procedures are to be started to build the missing parts of the eastern end of the line. 2.3 New trains were introduced on the Marston Vale line, Autumn 1999. A study of the passenger accessibility of Marston Vale stations identified various desirable improvements, for which a contribution of £10,000 is required from this Council.

  • Competitive Tendering of Rail Services EUROPEAN CONFERENCE of MINISTERS of TRANSPORT (ECMT)
    Competitive EUROPEAN CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS OF TRANSPORT Tendering of Rail Competitive tendering Services provides a way to introduce Competitive competition to railways whilst preserving an integrated network of services. It has been used for freight Tendering railways in some countries but is particularly attractive for passenger networks when subsidised services make competition of Rail between trains serving the same routes difficult or impossible to organise. Services Governments promote competition in railways to Competitive Tendering reduce costs, not least to the tax payer, and to improve levels of service to customers. Concessions are also designed to bring much needed private capital into the rail industry. The success of competitive tendering in achieving these outcomes depends critically on the way risks are assigned between the government and private train operators. It also depends on the transparency and durability of the regulatory framework established to protect both the public interest and the interests of concession holders, and on the incentives created by franchise agreements. This report examines experience to date from around the world in competitively tendering rail services. It seeks to draw lessons for effective design of concessions and regulation from both of the successful and less successful cases examined. The work RailServices is based on detailed examinations by leading experts of the experience of passenger rail concessions in the United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands.

  • Network Rail Response to Grand Union Trains Wales Application- 30
    OFFICIAL 30 October 2020 Gareth Clancy Head of Access and Licensing By email only Dear Gareth Grand Union Trains Section 17 Application between London and Carmarthen: Capacity and Performance Assessment I am writing in response to your letter of 16 October 2020. Network Rail has been working on assessing the Grand Union Trains Ltd (GUTL) applications in good faith. We have taken a methodical and logical progression of work to assess the applications. A timeline showing the work undertaken by Network Rail to assess the GUTL applications is in Annex 1. This demonstrates the volume of work which has been undertaken to assess the applications, as well as the considerable effort by Network Rail to assist GUTL in finding compliant proposals for train slots. It is only with the latest iteration of the proposed service specification that Network Rail and GUTL are in a position to understand which parts of the proposition can have a compliant train and platform plan; this will now allow meaningful performance modelling to be carried out. The static performance analysis conducted so far on the various GUTL applications using historic performance data shows there is a potential performance risk which is why the detailed modelling is required. The Coronavirus pandemic has significantly impacted the railway industry, with a collapse in passenger numbers, which has been sustained for several months. As service levels were reduced, there was an immediate improvement in punctuality and performance on the network. Indeed, during the early months of the pandemic, punctuality reached record levels with the proportion of trains arriving on time, to the minute, rising to 80-90% and around 95% of trains routinely arriving within 5-10 minutes of their scheduled time.
