  • Approval of Tyne and Wear Metro CHP Letter
    Annette Egginton Head of Competition and Consumer Policy Directorate of Railway Markets & Economics Email: [email protected] 21 September 2016 David Gibson Managing Director DB Regio Tyne and Wear Dear David Approval of DB Regio Tyne and Wear Limited (Trading as Tyne and Wear Metro) Complaints Handling Procedure (Condition 6 of the Station Licence and Passenger Train Licence) Thank you for submitting your draft Complaints Handling Procedure (CHP) for approval. A copy of your revised CHP is attached to this letter, and will be published on our website along with a copy of this letter. I confirm that we have reviewed your CHP against the 2015 “Guidance on complaints handling procedures for licence holders” (the guidance), and can confirm that your revised CHP meets the requirements of Condition 6 of your station licence and passenger train licence. We also sought views on your draft CHP from Transport Focus. We welcome the following, which we believe is likely to be positive for passengers: Your commitment to respond to 95% of web and email complaints in 5 working days and to respond to 95% of telephone, written and fax complaints within 10 working days. This is more challenging than the minimum regulatory target of responding to 95% of complaints within 20 working days; and Your commitment to ensure that, where possible, the same member of staff handles a complaint from start to finish. You have confirmed that where a complaint has not been resolved and your internal procedures have been exhausted, you will provide information on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) to the complainant, in accordance with the Alternative Dispute Resolution for Consumer Disputes (Competent Authorities and Information) Regulations 2015.

  • Review of Tyne and Wear Metro DPPP
    Annette Egginton Head of Competition and Consumer Policy Directorate of Railway Markets & Economics Email: [email protected] 28 February 2017 David Gibson Managing Director Tyne and Wear Metro Dear David Review of DB Regio Tyne and Wear Limited (Trading as Tyne and Wear Metro) Disabled Peoples Protection Policy (Condition 5 of the Station Licence and Passenger Train Licence) Thank you for providing updated versions of your Disabled People’s Protection Policy (DPPP) documents for review. A copy of your revised DPPP is attached to this letter, and will be published on our website along with a copy of this letter. I confirm that we have reviewed your DPPP against the 2009 Guidance “How to write your Disabled People’s Protection Policy: A guide for Train and Station Operators” (the Guidance) and can confirm that your revised DPPP meets the requirements of Condition 5 of your station licence and passenger train licence. We welcome your reduced notice period for assistance bookings which requires passengers to give 6 hours’ notice for assistance booking when travelling on your services. We believe this is likely to be positive for passengers. Since your DPPP was originally submitted to ORR we have had several exchanges in the intervening period in order to bring about the changes required to make it fully compliant with the Guidance. We also sought views on your policies from Transport Focus and the Disabled Persons Transport Advisory Committee (DPTAC). The main areas where you clarified your policies during our review were: Provision of ramps: The guidance states that ramps must be made available at staffed stations to provide assistance to passengers when boarding or alighting the train.

This report outlines a proposed response to the Secretary of State’s legal direction dated 27 July 2017 requiring Gateshead, Newcastle and North Tyneside Councils to produce a feasibility study to identify the option which will deliver compliance with legal limits for nitrogen dioxide in the Councils’ administrative areas in the shortest possible time. It illustrates the issues faced in developing this study within constrained timescales set by government and recognises that decisions of this magnitude should not be taken without due consideration of the impact on specific and more vulnerable communities. Having undertaken this study jointly with Newcastle City and North Tyneside Councils, approval is sought to commence public consultation across the area on a package of potential measures. Background 2. Outdoor air pollution is a major risk to human health. Based on national estimates, poor air quality is considered to be responsible for around 360 deaths each year across Gateshead, Newcastle and North Tyneside and around 40,000 across the UK.

  • Update on Operational Rail Issues PDF 413 KB
    Rail North Committee Meeting – Subject: Update on Operational Rail Issues Author: Adam Timewell, Head of Rail Service Outputs Sponsor: David Hoggarth, Strategic Rail Director Meeting Date: Wednesday 21 October 2020 1. Purpose of the Report: 1.1 This report provides an update on operational rail issues and provides an opportunity for members to discuss current progress and next steps on the timetable recovery plans. It covers current operational performance, and December 2020 & May 2021 timetable plans. It also covers a proposal received by the Rail North Partnership relating to Boxing Day services in 2020. 2. Executive Summary: 2.1 This report summarises the current operational performance and levels of demand in light of the transition from summer holiday period to the return of school. The report also touches on impact the recent local lockdown and other Covid restrictions have had on demand in recent weeks. 2.2 This report outlines the upcoming timetable changes for both December 2020 and May 2021 as part of the Covid recovery timetables, building further on the recent September timetable changes. 2.3 This includes an update on the approach to Boxing Day services. 3. Current Operational Performance 3.1 Previously, punctuality was primarily recorded using the Public Performance Measure (PPM) which considered trains to be ‘on time’ if they arrived within five or ten minutes at their final destination only, for short distance and long-distance trains respectively. In April 2019, all rail companies began to use the more transparent measure as its primary method of measuring punctuality. Rail companies now publish a spread of information about train punctuality: early, within a minute of the timetabled arrival or within three, five, 10 or 15 minutes and after 15, 20 or 30 minutes.
