  • Douglas Oakervee Independent Chair, Oakervee Review Department for Transport Albany House 94-98 Petty France London SW1H 9EA
    Douglas Oakervee Independent Chair, Oakervee Review Department for Transport Albany House 94-98 Petty France London SW1H 9EA Dear Douglas Oakervee Review Submission from Greater Manchester Parliamentarians As members of the Greater Manchester All Party Parliamentary Group (GM APPG) we wanted to welcome your review on the future of HS2 and to ensure that the collective views of Greater Manchester Parliamentarians are considered and taken on board. Greater Manchester MPs of all parties work collaboratively to provide a strong voice for the city- region in Westminster, working alongside the Mayor and local business and political leaders to help maximise future investment and growth for the benefit of the communities throughout Greater Manchester. We want to emphasise the following key points: After decades of underinvestment in strategic rail infrastructure and transport in the North, HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail, if combined with a clear commitment to much needed investment in our intra city transport networks, will provide the basis for a once-in-a-generation programme to secure the levels of investment and productivity in our northern cities that is essential to transform the North’s economic output and the life chances of residents here. Given the scale of the challenge to rebalance and level-up the UK, the GMAPPG strongly believes that choices cannot be made between HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail. Only by delivering the two initiatives together, as a future strategic rail network can we achieve the transformational economic outcomes that we share with Government. In making our case we would urge your team to consider the following points: • The full and timely delivery of Northern Powerhouse Rail (NPR) and HS2 Phase 2b is central to Greater Manchester’s wider ambitions for the role of rail in city-region growth.

  • The Rt Hon Chris Grayling MP Secretary of State for Transport Department for Transport Great Minster House 33 Horseferry Road London SW1P 4DR
    The Rt Hon Chris Grayling MP Secretary of State for Transport Department for Transport Great Minster House 33 Horseferry Road London SW1P 4DR 12 June 2018 Dear Secretary of State, During the past month over 2000 Northern Rail trains have been cancelled completely. A further 2000 or so have been “part cancelled” and hundreds of services have been confined to inadequately short trains. These statistics show how clear it is that Northern Rail is yet another failing franchise. Northern Rail’s passengers, our constituents, have been left in the lurch, with cancellations and delays causing complete chaos. We in the North have passengers who cannot travel to work, children who cannot travel to school, with some commuters reporting that more than 70% of their journeys have been delayed over the past six months. Northern Rail was awarded the franchise in 2016 under the stipulation that the outdated pacer trains would be phased out by 2019, along with other improvements and extra services being introduced. We are sure that you will be aware that these things have not yet happened. Your announcement that improving Northern Rail’s service is the Department of Transport’s ‘number one performance priority’ is welcome, but it is crucial that this aspiration is quickly followed by positive action to relieve the travelling misery that our constituents are enduring. We hope that you are also willing to make regular statements to the House to allow those of us who represent Northern Rail’s passengers to question the Government on your plans, which are of a huge significance to so many of our constituents.
