INTRODUCTION Instruction 1.1 BWB Consulting (BWB) has been instructed by Stoford Properties Ltd (the Client) to provide highways and transport advice and prepare a Travel Plan (TP) report to support an application for a proposed operational hub and major incident response centre for the West Midlands Ambulance Service (WMAS) on Shidas Lane, Oldbury. 1.2 The proposed site layout is shown in Appendix 1. 1.3 This report presents the Travel Plan (TP) for the development and should be read in conjunction with the Transport Statement. 1.4 This TP outlines the proposed targets and measures with the objective of reducing car travel for staff employed at the site. The TP also includes measures to provide students/visitors with information on how to travel to the site sustainably. Definition of a Travel Plan 1.5 A Travel Plan is a living document that sets out ways in which an organisation can reduce the number of vehicle trips to their site by promoting more sustainable travel options. It is site specific and considers the unique needs and interests of employees, visitors, and deliveries in the context of the local environment and transport network. 1.6 A Travel Plan involves the development of agreed targets and outcomes which are linked to an appropriate package of measures aimed at reducing the need to travel, encouraging more sustainable travel, and reducing car use, for all trips to and from the development. The Travel Plan process also includes continuous monitoring, review, and refinement over time, as travel survey data is collected to determine trends in travel patterns. A Travel Plan is therefore a living document that will be continually updated. Introduction to this Travel Plan 1.7 This TP has been prepared to address travel by car to the Site. 1.8 The overarching objective of this TP is to minimise the number of car trips generated by staff. 1.9 This TP is structured as follows: • Section Two details the benefits and objectives of the TP • Section Three details the site location and existing opportunities for travel to and from the site. • Section Four details the proposed development. • Section Five details the forecast trip generation of the proposed development. • Section Six sets the Travel Plan targets. Page | 5 West Midlands Ambulance Service Oldbury Travel Plan December 2020 SHID-BWB-GEN-01-RP-TR-0003_TP_S2_V1 • Section Seven details the measures and incentives to encourage the use of sustainable modes of travel, in the context of the site’s location; the existing opportunities for sustainable travel and the likely operation of the development. • Section Eight includes methods for implementing, monitoring and reviewing the TP and the travel patterns of the development Page | 6 West Midlands Ambulance Service Oldbury Travel Plan December 2020 SHID-BWB-GEN-01-RP-TR-0003_TP_S2_V1 2.

While this is a corruption of the truth, many rail passengers in the (Radio Times) West Midlands are asking whether we really are heading towards a winter of discontent to follow what has been an autumn of discontent. West Midlands Railway has admitted that problems exist and has pointed to “an over-ambitious timetable enhancement in May 2019”. This is certainly true on the Chase Line between Walsall and Rugeley Trent Valley where the extension of services to London Euston has resulted in regular late running and an unacceptable level of cancellations north of Walsall.

  • Sandwell and Dudley Station
    STATIONS AS PLACES Opportunity Prospectus Integration, Community and Delivery: a Masterplan for Sandwell and Dudley station SANDWELL AND DUDLEY STATION APRIL 2020 FOREWORD Introducing the concept of Stations as Places The Stations as Places programme aims to promote local railway stations as community ‘hubs’ rather than simply access points onto the rail network. The vision is to develop local railway stations as an asset highly valued within the community, contributing to economic growth and acting as a hub for creativity, heritage and social amenity. The Vision “We will develop stations as quality gateways between communities and the railway, supporting the changing needs of our passengers, residents and visitors. Stations in the West Midlands will be community assets, supporting the wellbeing and development of the areas they serve through involving local community and business.” West Midlands Station Alliance (WMSA) Mission Statement What does the prospectus do for Sandwell and Dudley Station? There is an important role for the railways to play in both the economic and social regeneration of the local areas which our stations serve. This Opportunity Prospectus sets out the economic, social and geographic landscape of the area around our station and highlights some of the opportunities for commercial development, partnership working, inward investment and community regeneration. We have included a profile of Sandwell and Dudley station in this document and looked at different types of activity neighbouring our stations, from local businesses providing facilities to the travelling public, local authorities using existing assets in different ways, businesses looking for investment opportunities and the impact of new development in the surrounding area.

    HITCHMOUGH’S BLACK COUNTRY PUBS DUDLEY (Inc. Harts Hill, Kates Hill, Priory, Woodside) 3rd. Edition - © 2014 Tony Hitchmough. All Rights Reserved www.longpull.co.uk INTRODUCTION Well over 40 years ago, I began to notice that the English public house was more than just a building in which people drank. The customers talked and played, held trips and meetings, the licensees had their own stories, and the buildings had experienced many changes. These thoughts spurred me on to find out more. Obviously I had to restrict my field; Black Country pubs became my theme, because that is where I lived and worked. Many of the pubs I remembered from the late 1960’s, when I was legally allowed to drink in them, had disappeared or were in the process of doing so. My plan was to collect any information I could from any sources available. Around that time the Black Country Bugle first appeared; I have never missed an issue, and have found the contents and letters invaluable. I then started to visit the archives of the Black Country boroughs. Directories were another invaluable source for licensees’ names, enabling me to build up lists. The censuses, church registers and licensing minutes for some areas, also were consulted. Newspaper articles provided many items of human interest (eg. inquests, crimes, civic matters, industrial relations), which would be of value not only to a pub historian, but to local and social historians and genealogists alike. With the advances in technology in mind, I decided the opportunity of releasing my entire archive digitally, rather than mere selections as magazine articles or as a book, was too good to miss.
