Project Orpheus PROJECT ORPHEUS Options for Corridors Considered Unsuitable as Metro Extensions During Phase 1A of Project Orpheus Final Report May 2003 Prepared for: Prepared by: Nexus Steer Davies Gleave Nexus House 1 York Place St.James' Boulevard Leeds Newcastle upon Tyne LS1 2DR NE1 4AX [t] +44 (0)113-242 9955 [i] www.steerdaviesgleave.com JacobsGIBB 1270 Century Way Leeds LS15 8ZB [t] +44 (0)113 204 4567 Options for Corridors Considered Unsuitable as Metro Extensions During Phase 1A of Project Orpheus 1. OVERVIEW 1.1 This note is intended to summarise the information collected, and conclusions drawn, during the Phase 1A Option Sifting stage of Project Orpheus. An update will also be produced at the end of Phase 1B. It is intended to inform future scheme development within the Local Transport Plan (LTP) process. 1.2 A total of twenty-nine corridors were examined during the initial stages of Project Orpheus to establish their potential suitability for Metro Extensions. These corridors were developed from strategic travel markets identified by stakeholders. Recommendations for each of the corridors/routes are summarised in Table 1.1, showing the stage within the sifting process at which the conclusions were drawn. At the end of Phase 1A, a total of 18 corridors/routes (out of the total of 29) were considered unsuitable as Metro extensions, as follows: • 13 corridors at the end of the Phase 1A Corridor Selection (3, 4, 7, 11, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 20, 24, 27 and 29) • 5 routes at the end of the Phase 1a Route Selection (10, 15, 22, 25 and 26) 1.3 This leaves eleven routes to go forward as possible Metro extensions (1, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 12, 19, 21, 23 and 28) to be evaluated in more detail during Phase 1B. 1.4 Many of the 18 corridors/routes rejected as Metro Extensions have the potential to become key public transport corridors using modes other than LRT. The Orpheus consultancy team recommends that public transport improvements be developed further as parallel studies in the context of delivering the LTP objectives and strategies. 1.5 It should be emphasised that the note discusses options with the underlying assumption that public transport needs improving on all of the key public transport corridors identified. The transport case for the suggested options, encompassing indicators such as value for money, has not yet been assessed.

NOTES ON THE 13 CORRIDORS REJECTED AT THE END OF THE PHASE 1A CORRIDOR SELECTION PROCESS 2.1 These recommendations take into account the Superoute (Phase One) network which is currently being implemented (see Figure 2.1). Superoutes aim to deliver frequent, high quality services along key routes offering: • frequent services – 7am until midnight 7 days a week (9am Saturdays, 9.30am Sundays); • quicker journeys – bus priority measures are being implemented along routes; • quality vehicles – low floor, ‘Easy Access’ vehicles which are simple for people with wheelchairs and buggies to use. Superoute buses are all under 7 years old and will be compliant with Euro II emissions standards by 2004; • high quality infrastructure – aim to repair bus stops and shelters within 5 days and have modern shelters at 90% of stops by 2006; • good information – bus timetables will not change more than once a year and up to date timetables will be displayed at every bus stop. 2.2 Over the past few years, NEXUS have been developing the concept of Metro Complimentary Routes on some key public transport corridors. These studies have been included in the consideration of suitable route improvements. They are seen as a clearly defined upgrade to existing services with a more significant infrastructure cost to enable a higher degree of segregation and interchange to: • Provide fast limited stop branded services with quality interchange and halt facilities linking key centres; • State of the art accessible vehicles; • Dedicated routes with a high degree of segregation, priority over other traffic and the perceived permanence of railway systems; • Fully disability friendly; • Halts and interchanges which a re safe and secure, have real time passenger information systems and ticketing systems comparable with Metro; • Focused park and ride connections.

Alternative to Corridor 1 & 2 Quality bus route recommended, Possibility of some segregated bus way but limited opportunity for bus priority on existing highway system. Link with Metro/LRT in Sunderland and heavy rail/LRT in Seaham. Reasons High cost and difficulties accessing Metro at Sunderland Seaham & Sunderland better linked by rail (currently 2tph in AM peak) (Corridor 1) Sunderland to Doxford Park picked up by Corridor 2 Improving the bus services linking Hetton-le-Hole and Houghton-le- Spring to Sunderland would assist the current problems of social exclusion. Possibility of introducing priority measures/segregation in corridor. This bus option could be in place quickly to cater for expanding local population. 2.3 The Sunderland to Doxford Park section forms part of Corridor 2. Corridor 1 provides a link between Seaham and Sunderland which would parallel the existing heavy rail route. As a result, only the section of Corridor 3 serving Houghton-le-Spring, Hetton- le-Hole and Murton is not covered by Corridors 1 or 2, both of which have been taken forward for more detailed analysis during Phase 1A. 2.4 There is limited congestion through these three towns at peak periods and therefore the provision of bus priority measures are unlikely to have a significant impact on running times or reliability. It is recommended that a Quality Bus partnership be considered which could encompass services linking the three towns with the centres of Seaham and Sunderland and integrated with nodes on the future Orpheus network. 2.5 These links are partially served by two Superoutes: • Superoute 35: South Hetton - Easington Lane – Hetton-le-Hole – Houghton-le- Spring – Doxford Park - Sunderland - South Shields • Superoute 222: Durham – Houghton-le-Spring – Sunderland; 2.6 Future expansion of the Superoute network could link into the rail station at Seaham and via the new retail and leisure development at Dalton Park in Murton. 2.7 Further work should focus on: • Development of the quality infrastructure and priority elements of Superoutes 35 and 222 • Examine the feasibility of a Quality Bus partnership on routes from Seaham to Hetton-le-Hole via Murton and integration/interchange with Superoute 35, as part of a overall network improvement.

  • Initial Proposals for New Parliamentary Constituency Boundaries in the North East Region
    June 2021 North East region Initial proposals summary Who we are and what we do The Boundary Commission for England (BCE) is an independent and impartial non‑departmental public body, which is responsible for reviewing Parliamentary constituency boundaries in England. The 2023 Review We have the task of periodically reviewing the boundaries of all the Parliamentary constituencies in England. We are currently conducting a review on the basis of legislative rules most recently updated by Parliament in 2020. Those rules tell us that we must make recommendations for new Parliamentary constituency boundaries by 1 July 2023. While retaining the overall number of constituencies across the UK at 650, the rules apply a distribution formula that results in an increase in the number of constituencies in England (from 533 to 543). The rules also require that every recommended constituency across the UK – apart from five specified exceptions (two of them in England) – must have an electorate that is no smaller than 69,724 and no larger than 77,062. Initial proposals We published our initial proposals for the new Parliamentary constituency boundaries in England on 8 June 2021. Information about the proposed constituencies is now available on our website at www.boundarycommissionforengland.independent.gov.uk What is changing in the North East region? The North East region has been allocated 27 constituencies – a reduction of two from the current number. Our proposals leave two of the existing 29 constituencies wholly unchanged, and 11 with only minor substantive changes of one to two wards. As it has not always been possible to allocate whole numbers of constituencies to individual counties, we have grouped some county and unitary authority areas into sub‑regions, based on the relatively recently created combined authorities, which encompass the entire North East region.

  • Ryhope Doxford Link Road
    Ryhope Doxford Link Road- FAQs What is South Sunderland Growth Area? The area of land which makes up the South Sunderland Growth Area (SSGA) has been seen as a future growth area for the city for many years now. SSGA lies between Doxford Park and Ryhope and is made up of 4 development sites commonly known as Chapelgarth, Land North of Burdon Lane, Cherry Knowle and South Ryhope. There are a number of smaller peripheral dwellings that also form part of the growth area. Plan 1- SSGA Location Plan The area has the potential to provide approximately 3,000 new homes and meet 20% of the City’s future housing need. SSGA will see the development of a new community, along with the housing development there will be: • Over 50ha of greenspace/ parkland • A new two form primary school • Extension of two existing schools • Completion of the Ryhope Doxford Link Road • Wheeled play facility • Four play parks • 3g pitch • Multi purpose playing field • Allotments • Small retail centre • Community facilities • Extensive footpaths and cycleway • Affordable Housing • Family & Executive Housing What are the proposals for the Ryhope Doxford Link Road (RDLR)? The Ryhope Doxford Link Road (RDLR) runs along the southern boundary of the built up area of Tunstall and Ryhope, linking Ryhope to the A19 with Tunstall and Doxford Park in the west and linking Doxford Park to the Southern Radial Route which provides enhanced access from the City Centre to the A19 in the south. Parts of the road are already in place, with only two sections left to be constructed.

Walking is beneficial for both our physical and mental wellbeing and is a great way to take in our natural surroundings. We have chosen six parks and one walking route from across the city and have set up a challenge in each area. Simply take your booklet to the parks, from there the challenge is to find each picture that is displayed for each landmark in that park. Once found you may wish to take your own photograph or simply tick each landmark off. The parks and routes included are: • Barnes Park • Herrington Country Park • Hetton Lyons Country Park • Mowbray Park • Roker Park • Silksworth Sports Complex • Washington Wetland Centre Page 3 A walk in the park Barnes Park The land for Barnes Park was bought in 1904 by the Borough of Sunderland for £8,500.
