The resulting trip ends were compared against the TEMPRO forecasts. 1.1 1 Introduction 1.3 Testing the LDF Scenarios for 2026 1.3.1 Nine options were tested, which comprised of three differing residential development scenarios, each with and without mitigating infrastructure. In addition, for each development scenario a further test was undertaken with an assumption that for new trips the car mode would constitute no more than a 50% mode share. Full details of the options are in Table 3.5. 1.3.2 Each scenario was analysed against the ‘2026 Baseline’ which assumed the following improvements from the 2001 network: Bognor Regis Relief Road; Chichester bypass improvements; Angmering bypass; Titnore lane (West Worthing) improvements; and 700 bus service headway decreased from 30 to 10 minutes. Further mitigating infrastructure is included in some options as specified in Table 3.5. 1.2 2 West Sussex County Transport Model 2.1 Suitability for Purpose 2.2 Model History 2.1.1 The West Sussex County Model was considered to be suitable for this strategic transport assessment.

  • Passenger Information During Snow Disruption December 2010
    Passenger information during snow disruption December 2010 A Rail passenger Information during snow disruption December 2010 Headline Findings 1. The National Rail Enquiries (NRE) website appears to have coped well with very high volumes 2. The online real time journey planner on the NRE website did not show correct information for some train operating companies (TOCs) 3. The online journey planners on TOC and third-party websites did not generally reflect the contingency timetables in operation 4. Tickets continued to be available for sale online for many trains that would not run 5. Station displays appear to have reflected formal contingency timetables, except for Southeastern 6. Station displays and online Live Departure Boards did not always keep pace with events 7. The NRE call centres appear to have provided good information, but queuing times of 11 or 12 minutes were common. 1 The National Rail Enquiries appears to have coped well with very high volumes We saw no evidence that the NRE website crashed or was slower than usual, despite a large spike in volume (Chris Scoggins reported that the volume on 2 December was twice the previous record peak on 7 January 2010). 2 The online real time journey planner on the NRE website did not show correct information for some train operating companies NRE had to advise passengers not to use the journey planner for enquiries about East Coast, Southeastern and South West Trains. This was a significant failure, with three scenarios: 2a Although the journey planner showed services from a contingency timetable for East Coast on 1 and 2 December, it also showed services from the base timetable that were no longer running.

  • West Sussex County Council
    West Sussex Local Economic Assessment Spatial Area Factsheets ARUN Introduction to Spatial Area Factsheets The Local Economic Assessment In 2010/11 West Sussex County Council produced the Local Economic Assessment (LEA) for West Sussex, in accordance with requirements set out in the Local Democracy, Economic Development & Construction Act (2009). It: • Sets out the economic conditions in West Sussex and how they affect businesses and residents; • Identifies the economic linkages between West Sussex and the wider economy; • Identifies strengths and weaknesses within the county’s economy and its economic challenges and opportunities; and • Identifies constraints on land to sustainable economic growth. It is intended that the information in the LEA will be updated on a regular basis, so that there is readily available intelligence to inform local economic development policies and interventions. What is in this Spatial Factsheet This spatial area factsheet provides a summary of the key data about Arun that is contained within the West Sussex Local Economic Assessment. It has three sections: • People. This focuses on population trends; the skills and qualifications of local residents; labour market participation and the occupations that people work in; • Place. This focuses on the physical characteristics in each area, including transport, housing and the environment; • Economy. This provides information on the business structure, business start ups, sector strengths and economic performance. Ten other spatial factsheets have been produced

Introduction 2. State of the Town 3. Vision & Objectives 4. Planning Policies 5. Delivery Plan 6. Proposals Map Appendix A: Schedule of Evidence Arundel Neighbourhood Plan: Submission Plan November 2013 2 Foreword Arundel is a very special place, with a long history. Its position between the South Downs and the sea, with the river Arun running though it and the magnificent skyline sets it apart from all other towns in Sussex and the South East. The recent Arun Leisure and Culture Strategy identified Arundel as one of the most attractive heritage towns in the country. In March 2013 The Times listed Arundel at the top of a list of the “Best Towns to Live in Britain”. Those of us who live here and those who visit as tourists, friends and family or nearby residents all value what Arundel has to offer, and the Arundel Neighbourhood Plan sets a vision and objectives to protect and enhance these fine attributes of the town for the enjoyment of future generations. Arundel is developing fast in the 21 st Century as a modern market town, heritage and cultural centre and a place for leisure experience seekers. This mix of development needs to be carefully managed, within local planning policy, to protect the town and to proceed in line with the wishes of local people.

  • Annex SCHEMES to BE PROGRESSED IF DEVELOPER FUNDING IS SECURED
    Annex SCHEMES TO BE PROGRESSED IF DEVELOPER FUNDING IS SECURED March 2009 Background This document is called “Schemes to be progressed if developer funding is secured” and is also known as the “Blue Book”. In line with latest national guidance (see below), County and District Councils have developed a structured approach to the identification of transport needs related to development proposals. This aims, in particular, to improve the link between meeting the needs of development and the aims of the Local Transport Plan. The County Council’s Works Programme and Forward Programme are produced annually to list the highways and transport schemes to be progressed with the funds available. This year, the Forward Programme has been extended to include schemes that have been identified, in liaison with the Local Planning Authorities, as meeting LTP objectives but that cannot be progressed within available funding. Developer contributions will be sought towards these schemes, where they are seen to meet the needs of development proposals. This extended Forward Programme has been subject to consultation and will be supported by District Councils and used to assist the development control process. The programme will be updated each year and it is intended to engage wider community interests in developing and updating the programme in future years. Planning Context Planning Policy Guidance Note 13 : Transport requires authorities to demonstrate a linkage between land use planning and transport policies and objectives. PPG13 recognises that: • Local Transport Plans have a central role in co-ordinating and improving local transport provision and should relate to measures which form part of the local approach to the integration of planning and transport.

    Agenda Item 6 Report PC 75/13 Report to Planning Committee Date 12 September 2013 By Director of Planning Local Authority SDNPA (Arun District) Application Number SDNP/12/01594/FUL Applicant Mr and Mrs D and K Searle Application Change of use of land to a private gypsy and traveller caravan site consisting of 8 no. permanent residential pitches, play area and landscaping. Address The Former Petrol Filling Station, Land Lying South Of former A27, Poling, Arundel Purpose of Report The application is reported to Committee for a decision. Recommendation: That planning permission be granted for the reason and subject to the conditions in paragraph 10.1 of this report. Executive Summary The proposal is for the site to be a permanent gypsy and traveller site for 8 pitches. The application has been considered against the criteria set out on the Planning Policy for Traveller Sites 2012 and found to meet the criteria. The development is acknowledged to affect to some degree the character and setting of this part of the South Downs National Park in terms of its impact on rural tranquillity. Whilst it is acknowledged that this is a large scale scheme, in a rural location, it is considered that when balanced against the need for gypsy and traveller sites, and given the design, layout and appearance can be justified notwithstanding its rural location and countryside policies. The Highway Authority has raised no objection to the scheme. Comments and concerns raised by the community in relation to planning issues include the lack of need for such permanent sites, adverse impact on the landscape, overdevelopment and highway safety.

This document describes our Penalty Fares Scheme for the purposes of rule 3.2 b. 1.2 We have decided to introduce a Penalty Fares Scheme because the previous operator of the railway passenger services comprised of the Thameslink Great Northern franchise, First Capital Connect and Southern Railways, operated a Penalty Fares Scheme in such franchise area and the experience has proved that it is an efficient means to deter ticketless travel. In addition, once some Southeastern routes and stations are integrated into the TSGN franchise from 14 December 2014 and once the entire current Southern franchise is integrated into the TSGN franchise on 26th July 2015, it is important that there is consistency across all franchise areas (as Southeastern and Southern both also operate a Penalty Fares Scheme); so as to avoid causing confusion for our passengers. This scheme will now include all stations under schemes previously operated by Govia Thameslink Railway Limited and Southern Railway Limited.
