  • Tring Station: a Need for Integrated Cross-County Planning
    Tring Station: a need for integrated cross-County planning Dear Mr Gordon and Mr Tett, The attached note describes the significant modal interchange capacity issues being faced at Tring railway station today. In essence the station is already operating to capacity and beyond in its ability to effectively function as a hub. Future planned developments in West Hertfordshire and South Buckinghamshire will exacerbate the problems unless an holistic approach is taken to housing and the associated transport infrastructure development. We recommend that an integrated transport strategy is developed for the West Dacorum / Southern Vale areas, coordinated and facilitated by Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire County Councils working together and in collaboration with the several other parties involved. I am writing to you as Leaders of the Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire County Councils, and copying your Chairs (and other relevant parties) as our senior elected representatives with responsibility for ensuring the continuing wellbeing and economic prosperity of our communities. I and my fellow Councillors would be very grateful if you would take ownership of this major cross- County strategic issue. We would be delighted to meet with you in order to provide more detail, answer questions and understand your positions. Yours sincerely, Duncan Eggar Duncan Eggar Chair, Aldbury Parish Council Tring Station: a road / rail interchange that needs integrated cross-County planning Tring station lies in Hertfordshire and is a passenger transport hub for the surrounding areas that lie in both Dacorum / Hertfordshire and Aylesbury Vale / Buckinghamshire. Given the drive to create more homes in the south east of the UK, there is a consequent need to develop a cross-County integrated transport strategy that recognises the impact of this housing increase on the local infrastructure.
