PURPOSE OF REPORT The purpose of this report is to inform the Transport Committee about the plans and mitigation for the Liverpool Lime Street Station Improvement Programme works to be delivered from 30 September to 22 October 2017. For part of these works mainline rail services will terminate at key interchange stations with passengers transferring onto rail to rail connections wherever possible or rail replacement buses to complete their journeys. Work continues to be undertaken with key city region partners and stakeholders (from the LEP, Liverpool Vision and local business and educational representatives) to engage them in the programme, so they are aware and can plan for the arrangements; and to develop and help spread the message that the Liverpool City Region remains open for business. This report highlights the impact these works and the mitigation plan will have across the city region and beyond. 2. RECOMMENDATIONS 2.1. It is recommended that the Transport Committee: (a) Note that rail services will be impacted by engineering works from 30 September to 22 October 2017; and (b) Note the arrangements Network Rail are putting in place in partnership with Train Operation Companies (TOCs) to use key interchange stations (Liverpool South Parkway, Huyton, St Helens Junction and St Helens Central) across the City Region to support this work and the impact these works will have on travel within and outside the Region between these dates. -

Illustrative Option Schemes in CP5 HLOS
Illustrative Option schemes in CP5 HLOS The Department worked with Network Rail, the train operators and the transport authorities in the major cities to build up shared information on current rail usage. As far as practicable a shared view was also agreed on forecast demand, using standard rail industry models but adjusting these where there was evidence of likely stronger growth. This forecast growth is stated as a peak demand to be met in the HLOS. The forecast growth was assessed against current plans for train service provision in 2019. Illustrative train service enhancements that provided the capacity to meet this demand were identified and modelled for the morning peak services in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds. In many cases these were directly based on the work undertaken by recent rail industry Route Utilisation Strategies (RUS). In some cases, notably in Leeds and Manchester, recent Government commitments to funding electrification and capacity enhancements had happened after the RUS and so the Department worked with key stakeholders to determine the most likely train service patterns the infrastructure changes might produce. The illustrative peak train services are not what will happen; that will be guided both by the rail industry’s response to the HLOS in the Strategic Business Plan for CP5 where the industry will set out how it proposes to meet the HLOS, and by the outcome of future train operator franchise competitions. But the illustrative train services are needed for the Department to confirm that a value for money solution can be provided to meet peak demand. It is likely the rail industry will produce a more detailed and efficient solution, and in this context the illustrative option can be viewed as the simple answer that should be bettered. -
