LJMU Green Travel Plan

1. Overview 1.1. Aim of the Travel Plan

This Travel Plan has been developed by Liverpool John Moores University and Merseytravel to assist with the delivery of initiatives and communications to staff and students, promoting the use of sustainable transport in order to minimise the impact on the environment, and achieving carbon and cost savings for the University, its staff and its students.

The subsequent Travel Action Plan (Appendix H) incorporates a package of measures and recommendations to encourage the use of alternatives to single-occupancy car-use and promote increased accessibility and sustainable modes of transport. It is anticipated that implementation of these recommendations will deliver fiscal, environmental and health benefits to LJMU. 1.2. LJMU Masterplan and Connected University Village

This Travel Plan is being developed concurrently to the LJMU Masterplan which is designed to reinforce the rationalisation of the LJMU estate, strengthen the connectedness and flow between different buildings and sites, and in part contribute to LJMU’s carbon emissions reduction obligations. Within the wider plans, the new flagship development at Copperas Hill (due to be commissioned in 2017/18) should assist with improved transit across the estate and a reduced need to depend on high- emission modes of transport (e.g. single passenger car journeying). From a location perspective, Copperas Hill will be extremely supportive to future travel plan: the site is adjacent to Lime Street station and within a few minutes’ walking distance of the other city train stations, all bus route stops, bus stations, and citybike posts. To find out more about the Estate Masterplan, please see Appendix A

Policy Context.

2. Objectives and Targets

The Travel Plan will encapsulate relevant objectives outlined in a number of policy documents, (see Appendix A for fuller details):

 To improve access to all LJMU buildings for all staff, students and visitors.  Promote active travel (walking and cycling) to enhance health and wellbeing of LJMU students and staff.  To put measures in place to reduce potential negative impact of travel on the environment, by encouraging the use of more sustainable modes of transport.  To reduce the number of single occupant car journeys and car dependency, and consequently ease car parking congestion at the University.  To increase the travel survey participation rate.

Mode Staff Students Outline Targets Walk ≥ 7 ≥ 33 for 2015/16 Bicycle ≥ 6 ≥ 5 Public transport ≥ 50 ≥ 46 onwards Car share ≥ 11 ≥ 10 Car (single passenger) ≤ 25 ≤ 10

3. Existing & New Targets The Staff Travel Survey took place in February 2014, whilst the Student Travel Survey was deferred until April 2015. Moving forward, it is proposed that the surveys will be conducted in tandem in Semester One of every other academic year. This will reduce conflict with other surveys (e.g. the National Student Survey which runs during Semester Two) and will deliver data for extrapolating carbon emissions for the annual HESA (Higher Education Statistics Agency) Estate Management Return. This runs annually from January through February and requires travel survey data to be within 24 months of validity. Whilst the fuller surveys will be conducted every two years, snapshot surveys of modal choice may be carried out on the alternating years simply to monitor any significant change in transport and travel choices amongst the LJMU community.

The following tables illustrate LJMU’s staff and student travel preferences since 2005 as a long-term monitoring exercise, including a comment on participation rates. The table outlines success against the 2005 baseline results and against the targets made for 2014. It should be noted that motorbike/moped and other modes of transport are excluded from the achievement evaluation as it cannot be judged at this time whether the changes mark a positive or negative impact on sustainability. Continual improvement is an expected standard moving forward, but red flags are raised with regards a few areas:

3.1. Staff Travel Survey Results LJMU accommodated 2,500 staff across its sites. The 2014 Staff Travel Survey had a response rate of

13% which was a decrease from previous participation rates (33% in 2005; 21% in 2008; 26% in 2009). A robust strategy for effective communication, promotion and potential incentivising will be undertaken to ensure that a participation rate target of 20% minimum rate may be achieved in subsequent surveys. It is proposed that the Staff Travel Survey runs in Semester One (September- December) to align with the Student Travel Survey. Mode of Transport 2005 (%) 2008 (%) 2009 (%) 2014 2014 staff Against Against target (%) survey (%) 2005 targets baseline for 2014 Car (single passenger) 50 40 34 30 27

3.2. Student Travel Survey Results LJMU accommodated 22,500 students, of which xxx are regularly accommodated across the University’s sites. The 2015 Student Travel Survey had a response rate of 6% which demonstrated no particular trend or departure from previous participation rates (5% in 2005; 3% in 2008; 11% in 2009). A robust strategy for effective communication, promotion and potential incentivising will be undertaken to ensure that a participation rate target of 10% minimum rate may be achieved in subsequent surveys. Timing of the survey will also be of importance: the 2015 Student Travel Survey was conducted during end of semester/examination periods, and also whilst the National Student Survey was ongoing. It is proposed that future Student Travel Surveys are conducted in Semester One (September-December). Mode of Transport 2005 (%) 2008 (%) 2009 (%) 2014 2015 Against Against student student 2005 targets target (%) survey (%) baseline for 2014 Car (single passenger) 19 17 12 10 10.8

Staff areas for improvement: Walking has decreased as a mode of transport and overall has failed to achieve anywhere near 10% in the last ten years. A postcode plot, walking challenges and overall promotion of the fitness and wellbeing benefits of walking up to 5 miles a day may need reasserted focus moving forward in order to improve this performance figure. Since 2008, car share appears to have plateaued at around 11%. Exploring options for encouraging and supporting car share amongst staff could be effective in likewise reducing single-passenger car journeys down to a neat 25%.

Student areas for improvement: There has been no significant improvement in car-sharing or cycling and this poses a number of areas for discussion. In some respects, LJMU as a predominantly city-based university lends itself to walking (which is now the modal choice for more than a third of LJMU students) and public transport. Broader questioning in the survey indicate that there is not a huge appetite for cycling due to safety and infrastructural restraints in Liverpool.

4. Working in Partnership

Whilst the Travel Plan is managed and developed by the LJMU Sustainability and Environmental Team (with engagement from Estates Department, Corporate Communications, Liverpool Student Union, and other internal bodies), LJMU has also pursued and established a number of external partnership opportunities to strengthen the objectives and success of its Travel Plan. These include:

4.1. City Centre Travel Plan Group (CCTG)

This partnership was set up in 2009 and is based across the Knowledge Quarter including key stakeholders such as LJMU, Merseytravel, Liverpool City Council, Royal Liverpool University Hospital, Liverpool Women’s and Alder Hey Hospitals, University of Liverpool, and Liverpool Hope University. The CCTG refreshed momentum of the partnership with meetings scheduled in tandem with the Employers Network Forum (see below), with a view to bolstering city-wide sustainable transport efforts by all partners, and to collaborate and engage regarding promotion and awareness-raising exercises and activities. 4.2. Merseytravel’s TravelWise Employers Network Forum The Employers Network notes the following benefits of signing up: “The TravelWise Employers Network gives your organisation access to bespoke consultancy support to enable you to give your staff and visitors choice about how they travel to work, alleviating car parking pressures and giving your organisation the best advice in order to maximise your productivity where staff travel and transport is concerned.” For further details, get in touch with the Environment and Sustainability Team or visit

http://www.letstravelwise.org/content99_Employers--Network.html.

4.3. Citybike Scheme Liverpool City Council launched its citybike scheme in May 2014, the largest one of its kind in the UK outside of London. The LJMU Sustainability and Environmental Team have taken advantage of the opportunity to propose and support installation of a suite of citybike stations on campus at the following sites: Byrom Street; IM Marsh (Barkhill Road); and further initial proposals for Brownlow Hill, Great Crosshall Street, Aigburth Station and North Western Halls at Lime Street. These will be available for use by staff and students, and will be communicated as a key sustainability initiative from the Travel Plan. They will also be a complementary addition to the citybike posts already situated at Mount Pleasant (John Foster Building), Tithebarn Street, Lime Street and other locations across the city-based sites. Further details on citybike can be found at www.citybikeliverpool.co.uk. LJMU Sustainability and Environmental Team aim to engage with corporate deals for students and staff; all enquiries should be directed using the contacts at the end of this document.

4.4. Liverpool Students’ Transport Charter The Liverpool Students Travel Charter has been officially endorsed by the Merseytravel Board of Directors following its presentation in 2015 by Liverpool SU’s previous Vice President Community Engagement. The Charter was researched and developed by Liverpool SU to help deliver more convenient and cost-effective travel for all students (including those from LJMU’s neighbouring universities and colleges) across Liverpool. There has been a commitment to ensuring the Charter is taken into account when Merseytravel and transport providers in Liverpool are developing policy which directly affects students in the region. The full Charter is included in Appendix G.

5.1. Walking and Cycling

Walking and cycling – also known collectively as active travel – are simple ways of incorporating physical activity into our daily lives. Walking and cycling will provide the following benefits:

 Healthier and happier staff and students, and increased productivity;  Reduced stress and improved health which leads to lifestyle improvements;  Reduced absenteeism due to healthier staff; and  Overall reduced traffic levels which result in less pollution and improve air quality in the local area, as well as fewer accidents.

The LJMU campus, including IM Marsh, is easily accessible on foot (see Appendix E for walking stat

tables). To find out your best route – including how many calories you can burn and how much CO2 you could save – the urban walking route planner ‘Walkit’ is a great tool. This is available at www.walkit.com, or alternatively as an app on either iOS or Android. Identifying a ‘walking buddy’ is also a great initiative, especially during the winter months (see 5.8 Car and Journey Share).

Table generated by walkit.com for distance, time, calories burned and CO2 saved on each journey by foot between Tithebarn

Street and John Foster Building.

LJMU is well served with cycling storage spaces, equipment lockers and changing facilities on site (see Appendix D). The campus also benefits from a dedicated University Cycle Route which offers cyclists a less congested route between the city centre and IM Marsh: http://liverpool.gov.uk/media/504782/universityroute.pdf. This route takes approximately 25 minutes–

that’s around 200 calories burned and 1.3kg CO2 saved per trip!

5.1.1. Cycle Storage CCTV

Eight state-of-the-art CCTV cameras have now been installed and are operational across the campus in key cycle storage areas. The bid was won by the Environment and Sustainability Team from the Department for Transport, administered through Merseytravel. Monitoring is required going forward to analyse the project’s impact. Working with the Security Team, further initiatives are in place concerning cycle locks for students to ensure that the LJMU cycling community feels more secure in its transport choice.

5.1.2. Citybikes for Hire

During 2014, LJMU worked with the Liverpool scheme in conjunction with Liverpool City Council to arrange for a suite of citybike hubs to be installed at key buildings and sites (see Campus Breakdown for further information). The citybike can be hired for as little as £1 a day and £5 a week. Alternatively, if you join the citybike scheme as an annual member for £55 (or £50 if you are a student), you can make as many 30 minute bike rides as you like for free – that’s as little as 15p a day for the annual membership fee!

5.1.3. Bike & Go bike hire and free storage!

There is also a scheme operating at numerous Merseyside rail stations, including Liverpool Central and Liverpool South Parkway, where you can hire bicycles daily for just £3.80. Further details can be found at www.bikeandgo.co.uk. This is supplemented by free, secure cycle storage at various train stations: to register and receive your personal fob, please visit: http://www.merseyrail.org/plan- your-journey/getting-to-our-stations/bike/secure-cycle-shelters.aspx. A map of hire stations can be found in Appendix B.

5.2. Public Transport & Journey Apps

For accessibility guidance, please see section 5.11.

Public transport is very important in providing links between a skilled workforce and the workplace, whilst also enhancing opportunities to establish and maintain new contacts, work in partnership and access new markets. Furthermore, it is vital to the student population who are based across the

Liverpool City Region to access the University for Education and extra-curricular activities (see 7.

Campus Assessment). LJMU has various schemes in place to encourage increased public transport use (see 6. Sustainable Travel Initiatives).

You can easily check the quickest journey for you by bus or train using a free journey app or website, such as the new Merseytravel Journey App:

 PC: http://jp.merseytravel.gov.uk/nwm/XSLT_TRIP_REQUEST2?language=en

 iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/merseytravel/id879482399?mt=8

 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mdv.LiverpoolCompanion

5.3. Buses

There are now a number of buses that operate under a Quality Bus Network (QBN). These are agreements made as part of a partnership between bus companies, local authorities and Merseytravel to ensure the customer has a high standard of service, infrastructure, marketing and ease of use. Fares types and prices can be found in the tables in section 5.5 Tickets and Fares.

A Merseytravel Zone and Area Map is available in Appendix B.

5.4. Trains

Merseyside has a comprehensive public transport system network serving Liverpool city centre and the surrounding area. City-centre train stations include Lime Street, Central, Moorfields and James Street. The closest train stations to the IM Marsh campus are Aigburth, West Allerton and Mossley Hill. The nearest train stations to the Lairdside Maritime Centre are Green Lane, Birkenhead Central and Rock Ferry. Fares types and prices can be found in the tables in section 5.5 Tickets and Fares.

The new Copperas Hill development (anticipated completion in 2018) will deliver a ‘beating heart’ to the LJMU campuses across the city and is excellently situated for train commute. Copperas Hill shares one side of its road with Lime Street station, while Central station is only two minutes away. See Section 7 for a fuller breakdown of travel and transport access.

All stations are marked on the Merseyrail map in Appendix B. The tables below highlight which train station are nearest to the various campus sites (shaded in pale yellow), and walking distances between Halls and stations – particularly useful for students travelling to IM Marsh or Lairdside Maritime Centre (see 7. Campus Assessment for more details).

Listed below are the closest train stations to the various LJMU sites and their respective walking times. For details of how Train stations closest to many calories burned and CO2 saved for each trip, please refer LJMU sites to the individual campus sections (Section 7).

5.6. IM Marsh Travel Grant

In recognising that there is often an additional travel cost incurred by students travelling the IM Marsh campus, Liverpool SU in partnership with LJMU is delivering a travel grant initiative. First year students living in Halls of Residence in the city centre, and whose programmes are fully or in-part delivered at IM Marsh, are entitled to claim up to £125 to help cover the cost of this travel.

First year students interested in taking advantage of this initiative should contact Liverpool SU for further information at [email protected]. 5.7. Ferry

The Ferry terminal at Liverpool Pier Head is a short walk to and from the city-based campuses. At the Wirral terminal in Seacombe, commuters benefit from free parking facilities and receive a free cup of coffee in the morning when they travel. Mersey Ferries – Commuter Timetable and Fares Taking only 10 minutes, the ferry offers a great way to commute from Wirral to Liverpool and vice versa. Commuter fares are shown below and timetable information is under ‘Notes’. Single Return Weekly Monthly Quarterly Annual £2.50 £3 £12.50 £53 £130 £465 Notes Ferry services begin at 07:20 and run approximately every twenty minutes until 10:00. Afternoon commute services begin at 16:00 then 17:00 and every twenty minutes thereafter.

Mersey Ferries commuter ticket prices and timetables are available on their website here: Tickets - http://www.merseyferries.co.uk/commuters/Pages/Ticket-Prices.aspx Timetable - http://www.merseyferries.co.uk/commuters/Pages/Commuter-Timetable.aspx

5.8. Taxis

Taxis are an important and complementary part of the transport system for commuting. As an alternative to single-passenger journeys, taxi sharing can reduce travel costs for LJMU and individual staff, while decreasing carbon emissions. This is particularly true if taxies are chosen for inter-campus travel, rather than staff commuting singly in cars on days when inter-campus travel is required. They can also be a safe and secure way for students to travel back to Halls after a night out, especially if you travel as a group and split the costs.

Two types of taxi are available in and around Liverpool: the hackney-style (or Black cabs), which you can flag down on the street or find at one of the ranks throughout the city. Make sure you take a note of the yellow-lit cab number which is located in the window divider between the back of the car and the taxi driver; private hire cabs, which must be pre-booked.

Generally, if you are planning a journey it is advisable to pre-book a private hire taxi and agree the fare on booking. There is a taxi pick-up/drop-off point on campus in front of the Meeting Place at IM Marsh. Please note: this is a pick-up point for pre-booked taxis only.

Safe Taxi Scheme – In conjunction with Alpha Taxis, Liverpool Students’ Union is pleased to announce the launch of Liverpool’s first ‘Safe Taxi’ scheme, designed to provide safe transport in the event that a student has been left alone in the centre of Liverpool or found themselves stranded without money. For full details on how it works, terms and conditions please visit: http://www.liverpoolsu.com/safetaxi

5.9. Car and Journey Sharing

Car sharing is a great option for people who are travelling to and from the same destinations. The benefits are numerous: the average car share commuter saves up to £800 a year, and time spent searching for a parking space can be reduced if there is subsequent eased demand in car parks. Car sharing is also beneficial to the region as a decrease in the number of cars using the roads reduces congestion, emissions and associated environmental impacts.

Other ways to journey share include partnering up on cycle routes or searching for walking buddies – particularly helpful for those who would like a bit more confidence and encouragement cycling on the roads or for those who would feel safer with a walking partner during the darker winter months.

Liverpool runs a City Car Club service, providing people with access to low-emission vehicles on a pay-as-you-go basis. All vehicles are available to use from reserved bays 24/7, 365 days a year, and for as little as 30 minutes. The service can be for those who do not own a car but who have occasional need for one, or for business usage as an alternative to pool car vehicles or single-passenger business travel. For more information, please visit http://www.citycarclub.co.uk/locations/liverpool-car-hire.

In the 2015 LJMU Student Travel Survey, 55% of respondents answered Yes to the question ‘Do you think it would be useful to run a student car share scheme at the University’; 27% said Don’t mind/don’t know. The LJMU Environment and Sustainability Team will use this feedback to inform production of future guidance on the operation of an LJMU car and journey share scheme.

LJMU Green Travel Plan

5.10. Driving, Parking and Electric Vehicles

LJMU recognises that whilst driving is sometimes the only practical option, a lot of trips are frequently unnecessary. For example, around half of all car journeys in the UK are for less than five miles with alternatives such as walking, cycling or public transport are more environmentally friendly, healthier and in some cases cheaper.

However, where these options are not suitable, LJMU offers two car park ticket types as per the following table. A full schedule of the parking capacity across LJMU sites and permit allocation policy is available in Appendix F.

Car Park Availability Price Ticket Type Day Month Annual Type A Available to all LJMU staff, for use £3.50 £40 £480 before 4:30pm Type C Available to all LJMU staff and N/A N/A N/A approved students attending evening classes and/or meetings after 4:30pm. IM Marsh and Tithebarn Street car parks only.

5.10.1. Electric Vehicles at LJMU

As the electric vehicle agenda progresses in Liverpool, LJMU is trialling an initiative to introduce electric vehicles to the University vehicle fleet. The pilot initiative includes 1 x Nissan Leaf Hatchback

and 1 x Nissan E-NV200 commercial vehicle for potential replacement of the existing Security vehicles.

The existing security vehicles travel around 22,000 miles per annum using approximately 687.5 gallons of petrol and 628.57 gallons of diesel. In contrast, the Nissan vehicles will require about 220 battery charges each per year – around 4.6 megawatt of in-house electricity per car. The table below illustrates the anticipated savings in comparison to the existing petrol and diesel security vehicles:

Vehicle Type Tonnes CO2 emitted Running cost Additional costs? (per annum) (per annum) Nissan Leaf Hatchback + 4.6 £1,100 – electricity Nissan E-NV200 Note: if the vehicles are charged overnight during ‘off-peak’ supply rates, this would be even lower at approximately £620.

Petrol + Diesel 14.8 £7,000 – fuel £300 road fund licence

Total emissions from the entire University vehicle fleet for 2013-14 was calculated at around 50 tonnes CO2 and we can anticipate with some confidence that the 2015/16 fleet emissions figures will be reduced by at least 10 tonnes CO2.

Additionally, LJMU is completing installation of three electric charging points to assess the feasibility of adopting these changes across the University’s entire vehicle fleet. The results of the study will inform LJMU’s future policy and investment in electric vehicle charging.

5.11. Disabled Access

As a student with a disability, there is a huge variety of services and support available at LJMU.

In the first instance, the LJMU Disability Advice Team helps provide general and bespoke support. The Disability Team provide information on:  Relevant disability focused support and appropriate funding opportunities;  Adapted accommodation;  Individual Student Learning Plans (ISLP) which set out the type of support you may need and who is responsible for ensuring your support is in place.

Given the split-campus nature of LJMU’s estate, the Disability Advice Team can also provide bespoke guidance upon request on accessible routes between its sites.

The Team also liaise with and work closely with the Disability Coordinators. There are Disability Coordinators in every Faculty who you can talk to about a range of support and information. They also act as a point of liaison with you and Faculty staff. Staff, students and visitors with an access query are encouraged to contact the Disability Advice Team at:

Website: www.ljmu.ac.uk/discover/targeted-support/students-with-a-disability Email: [email protected] Tel: 0151 231 3164 / 3165

LJMU policies relating to disability and equality may be viewed here for additional guidance:

https://www2.ljmu.ac.uk/secretariat/128873.htm#D

5.11.1. Accessible Journey Planning

LJMU works closely with DisabledGo, a non-judgmental source of information on accessibility across all LJMU’s buildings and sites. DisabledGo also provides detailed access information on the surrounding facilities such as student accommodation, cafes and restaurants, leisure facilities, cinemas, museums, places of worship and more. The Disability Advice Team and Disability Coordinators will be able to signpost you to the website, but you can also access it freely here:

Main webpage: www.disabledgo.com LJMU platform: www.disabledgo.com/organisations/liverpool-john-moores-university/main-2

LJMU students who use DisabledGo are able to tailor their profile to suit them, incorporating bespoke and favourited sites and trips. Going forward, there are potential opportunities for LJMU to further increase its functionality with DisabledGo; this may be through employing additional wayfinding services and by linking the LJMU Green Travel Plan directly to the online platform.

5.11.2. Public Transport

Public transport services across Liverpool are designed to facilitate access. Access information on trains and buses is provided below, but further Merseytravel guidance may be viewed here:

 Transport Accessibility including bus, train, ferry, travel centre, Merseylink and contacts : http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/travelling-around/transport-accessibility/Pages/default.aspx

Page 16

LJMU Green Travel Plan

 Easy Access Guide: http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/Site%20Documents/Easy%20Access%20Guide%20- %20November%202011.pdf  Concessions: http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/Tickets/concessions/Pages/Disabled.aspx

There are 88 bus stops in reasonable proximity to all city-based LJMU sites. Of these, 77 (or 86%) offer shelter, seating and raised kerbs (for level boarding). These bus stop are also close to a sloped kerb pedestrian crossing for further accessibility.

If you are travelling by bus to IM Marsh, the 82 and 699 routes are outlines in Section 7. The closest 699 bus stops (in both directions) both offer shelter, seating and raised kerbs. The 82 bus stop towards IM Marsh also makes these provisions. The 82 bus stop in the direction of Liverpool City Centre does not offer any such provision.

There are ten train stations in total which service LJMU’s campus sites – please see Section 5.4 to see which train station is closest to the campus you are visiting. These train stations all have Disabled Access, though some will be more limited.

 Merseyrail provide full details of facilities and Disabled Access available at each of its stations here: www.merseyrail.org/plan-your-journey/stations.aspx.  Advice and contact details for specific assisted travel requests can be found here: www.merseyrail.org/plan-your-journey/assisted-travel.aspx

If you are unable to get a train from your starting point direct to the destination closest to your

building of study, you will be able to transfer onto a direct train when passing through the main stations in Liverpool. There are only three main rail lines in Merseyside: the green Wirral Line, the blue Northern Line, and the red City Line. Using the Rail Network Map in Appendix B and the table of nearest train stations in section 5.4 will help you to decide your route more clearly.

5.11.3. Car Parking

LJMU offers provision of disabled car parking spaces across its sites. This is complemented by a number of public/council car parks in the area. To view the full parking arrangements and disabled provision across the LJMU estate, please refer to Section 7 (Campus Assessment) and Appendix G (Car Parking Schedule).

5.11.4. Longterm Aims

LJMU will continue to work with platforms such as DisabledGo, as well as helping to relay and resolve public accessibility issues through the University’s representation at the Merseytravel Employers’ Network Forum and the City Centre Travel Group. This will include lobbying for all bus stops to be complete with shelter, seating and raised kerbs, and that pedestrian/main public crossings are fit for purpose with tactile paving and visual/aural crossing indicators. Future considerations for travel and transport at LJMU will include the possibility of an accessible bus service which routes to all LJMU sites.

7. Key Recommendations

7.1. Recommendations to increase use of active travel

 Support pedestrianisation within the LJMU Masterplan; participate with cycle hire and storage schemes in Liverpool; embark on a long-term upgrade review of cycle facilities on site; and promote the benefits (calories burned, wellbeing, and CO2 saved) of walking.

7.2. Recommendations to increase use of public transport

 Provide detailed information of ticketing options and public transport routes, and explore further fare and payment opportunities for students and staff.

Further details of all recommendations put forward can be found in Appendix H: Travel Action Plan.

8. Going Forward

LJMU is committed to progressing environmental improvements for the benefit of the University, its staff, students, our city, and the surrounding community and environment. This is particularly true regarding transport, which can have a real impact on our sustainability achievements depending on what day-to-day choices we make for our journeys. Quality of travel and transport choices is also critical to a seamless student experience. We have reviewed progress to date and recommended a number of key objectives, using the Travel Action Plan to formulate a range of measures that will address these and help reach our

targets at LJMU.

Progress against these measures will be continuously monitored and included within our Annual Sustainability Report. In line with the LJMU Masterplan, our vision is to develop an estate which ensures that

all sites are accessible and that smarter transport options – which save money, CO2, and improve fitness and wellbeing levels – are a real choice for our staff and students.

LJMU Green Travel Plan

Appendix A Policy Context

Setting the policy context will illustrate how the LJMU Travel Plan supports local, regional and national transport policy, as well as supporting the internal business objectives of LJMU.

3.1. Liverpool John Moores ‘Green’ Travel Plan 2014 The LJMU Green Travel Plan 2014 was developed as in an institutional direction, moving away from the separated campus framework. This aligns with the aspiration for a Connected University Village and provides a more holistic approach. The Travel Plan 2015 is largely adopted from the 2014 document and provides a clear steer towards improved sustainable transport and travel associated with LJMU, its estate, and the Copperas Hill development.

3.2. Liverpool John Moores University Travel Plan 2009-2013

LJMU’s former Travel Plan was formulated for the period 2009/10 – 2012/13 and outlined a number of key objectives to reduce single passenger car journeys and increase the rate of active travel or public transport as commuting mode of travel. The tables in Existing & New Targets shows that these objectives have largely been met – with continued potential – amongst the staff of LJMU.

3.3. Liverpool John Moores University Environmental Policy

The current Environmental Policy acknowledges that LJMU’s Strategic Plan 2012-2017 points to the University’s “civic, social and environmental responsibilities”, and LJMU’s commitment to supporting “the local, national and global economy with innovative knowledge and technology exchange”. In providing high quality educational, research and workplace facilities, the University recognises that its operations has an impact on the environment and consequently acknowledges the importance of embedding continual environmental improvement into its business model and ethos. Its commitments to delivering the best environmental practice include, but are not limited to:

 Minimise associated pollution levels and implement prevention control.  Reduce carbon emissions in line with targets.  Encourage the use of sustainable means of transit and review operation of the University fleet.  Foster environmental/sustainability awareness and principles amongst staff and students.

3.4. Liverpool John Moores University Strategic Plan 2012-17 Liverpool John Moores University has a vision to be recognised as “a modern civic university delivering solutions to the challenges of the 21st century”.

Within the Strategic Plan, the University iterates: “We are aware of our impact as an organisation within our local community. We recognise our responsibilities as a major employer and seek to minimise our environmental impact and encourage responsible and ethical behaviour. As a consequence we will be a university aware of its civil, social and environmental responsibilities and which discharges these with vigour and enthusiasm.”

Page 25

LJMU Green Travel Plan

3.5. Liverpool John Moores Estate Masterplan The LJMU Estate Management Department has made the following statement in reference to the new Estate Masterplan: LJMU's plans to develop a connected university village go beyond just bricks and mortar with the ultimate goal being the creation of a vibrant, welcoming community in the heart of Liverpool.

The connected university village would bring a renewed sense of identity and belonging to LJMU’s current portfolio of 37 buildings, from the main science and technology facilities at Byrom Street to the John Foster Buildings on Mount Pleasant and the Redmonds Building on Clarence Street. The heart of the village would be located in Copperas Hill on the redeveloped site of the former Royal Mail Sorting Office. This location benefits from being within walking distance of LJMU’s other teaching and learning facilities, having great public transport links, with Lime Street and Queens Square bus terminal just minutes away, and its close proximity to a wide range of high quality affordable student accommodation.

As we embark on a masterplanning exercise to see how we can turn our vision for a connected university village into reality it’s important to stress that Copperas Hill is not another development opportunity, nor a convenient land acquisition. It will be the catalyst for developing a new narrative on how the University creates value. Not just for our students by offering an exceptional student experience delivering

outstanding graduate prospects, though this is obviously essential, but to society, to culture and the

economy more generally, with a clear emphasis on creating lasting positive change in Liverpool and our local communities.

3.6. Local Sustainable Transport Fund (LSTF) In January 2011 the Department of Transport (DfT) released the Local Sustainable Transport Fund (LSTF), which is a funding stream of £560m to be spent over 4 years. Merseyside has been successful in securing almost £25million of this.

The aim of the Local Sustainable Transport Fund is to help build strong local economies and address the urgent challenges of climate change. It reflects the Government's core objectives of supporting economic growth by improving the links that move goods and people and meeting its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Merseyside will use its funding to develop schemes that will help individuals to travel to employment and improve access to employment sites, which will support economic regeneration in Merseyside.

The LJMU Environment and Sustainability Team accessed this fund to provide high quality CCTV in outdoors cycle storage areas across the LJMU campus. A performance report will be completed in Autumn 2015 and submitted to Merseytravel for review.

3.7. Ensuring a Choice of Travel Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) The SPD was developed in partnership with Merseyside Local Authorities and Merseytravel in order to provide consistent guidance to developers on access and transport requirements for new development across the wider Merseyside area. Its core objectives are: i) Ensure a reasonable choice of access by all modes of transport to new development. ii) Reduce the environmental impact of travel choices, by reducing pollution, and improving the local environment. iii) Improve road safety. iv) Promote healthier lifestyles by providing opportunities for people to walk or cycle for work or leisure purposes. v) Reduce the level of traffic growth and congestion on the strategic and local road network vi) Encourage opportunities to improve the quality of development proposals by better use of space through the provision of less car parking spaces where appropriate.

The guidance contained with the SPD has informed objectives for issues such as cycle storage in the preliminary design for Copperas Hill as the major new development LJMU is pursuing on its state.

3.8. Merseyside Local Transport Plan 3 The main aim of the Local Transport Plan is ‘To establish our status as a thriving international city region by 2030’

Developed in line with Department for Transport’s national transport Strategy Creating growth Cutting

carbon the plan introduces strategy for a city region committed to a low carbon future. It puts

emphasis on a transport network and mobility culture that positively contributes to a thriving economy and the health and wellbeing of its citizens and where sustainable travel is the option of choice.

The LTP3 sets out a new approach that will create a new Mobility Culture that recognises the need to find new and smarter ways of travelling around and ensuring the efficient movement of people and goods, in order to support sustainable economic growth, reduce carbon emissions and promote health and wellbeing.

The Local Transport Plan for Merseyside has six key priorities: i) Help create the right conditions for sustainable economic growth by supporting the priorities of the Liverpool City Region, the Local Enterprise Partnership and the Local Strategic Partnerships. ii) Provide and promote a clean, low emission transport system which is resilient to changes to climate and oil availability. iii) Ensure the transport system promotes and enables improved health and wellbeing and road safety. iv) Ensure equality of travel opportunity for all, through a transport system that allows people to connect easily with employment, education, healthcare, other essential services and leisure and recreational opportunities. v) Ensure the transport network supports the economic success of the city region by the efficient movement of people and goods. vi) Maintain our assets to a high standard.

This travel plan will promote these objects to our occupiers at this site and were applicable deliver schemes on behalf of the building owner to help reduce transport related carbon emissions and promote inward investment.

Appendix G Liverpool Students’ Transport Charter

Liverpool Students’ Transport Charter

For a large proportion of students studying in Liverpool, public transport is an essential part of their university life and they need to use public transport to commute to and from university/college. Students across the UK are already hit hard by government cuts to funding and in many cases, any funding and student finance they do receive is not enough to cover their rent, even before transport and other living costs are considered and taken into account.

In response to ongoing work with Merseytravel in the last 18 months, the LiverpoolSU Vice President Community Engagement, along with John Moores students, were invited to facilitate a focus group in February 2015 at Merseytravel HQ. Students from the University of Liverpool, Liverpool Hope University and Liverpool John Moores University attended the focus group to discuss the transport issues that matter to them and fellow students, including students who live at home, those commuting in from local areas and those living on or near to their respective university campus.

From this, 3 main topics of travel were discussed, and these areas focussed around the cost, convenience and safety of travel and facilities. As a result of the discussions, and feedback from the wider student body, we would like to present the following list of 8 Students’ Transport asks for the Liverpool city region:

1. A more flexible student travel pass The profile of a student has changed over time. Students don’t only travel to lectures, but also to placements and extra-curricular activities all over the city/region and these aren’t just on a weekday between 9am-5pm. Whilst there are different passes with different benefits, there is no ‘all inclusive’ pass that all students can really benefit from. The current Trio pass is not value for money for students due to the restrictions whereby they can’t be used after 8pm or of a weekend and there is no real student discount if students have to purchase additional tickets outside the time the Trio can be used. Students continually tell us they need public transport to be cost effective, convenient and suit the ‘modern student’, and a better all inclusive student travel pass without restrictions could encompass these factors.

2. Payment plans for travel passes Whilst travel passes can prove good value for money, students more often than not are unable to take advantage of them as they cannot pay a lump sum upfront at the start of term as their student funding doesn’t cover this. This means students can’t benefit from the advantage of getting a term time/semester travel pass. Being able to purchase a travel pass that is payable via a payment plan would allow more students to access these benefits.

3. Flat or consistent price on student fares, including for travel to Liverpool Airport A big issue for students is the different and inconsistent student fares that are available and across different transport providers. This causes confusion, and also students aren’t sure which tickets are valid on which service. By having a consistent or flat price across providers, including travel to the airport for the many students that fly home to visit friends/family, this would be less confusing for both passengers and operating staff. Liverpool as a city has a high number of students from Northern Ireland; this being why transport to the airport is a particular issue.

4. Clearer ticket Information It isn’t always clear to students what the best priced ticket is for them, and where they can find this information. We propose that ticket prices are made clearer and students can easily work out which is the best value ticket for them, and this information is advertised in a range of places and easy to access. This also includes the current zones system information which is difficult to understand, and differs across different providers and networks, creating more confusion. Consideration should be given to making the zones model easier to understand and more user friendly.

5. Ensure drivers are knowledgeable, consistent and all information is transparent and easy to access Whilst there are a range of benefits available to passengers, in particular students, they often can’t benefit from this as bus drivers don’t have the information or the information isn’t readily available and accessible. All bus drivers should have appropriate knowledge and the information they give should be consistent, as well as clear and easy to understand information being advertised on services.

6. Better Security Students can often feel vulnerable when waiting for buses/trains at stops, particularly in the evenings/nights when they have finished lectures, leave the library or are returning from placement/extra-curricular activities. Sometimes students have been made to feel vulnerable on services too, and having better lighting and CCTV at stops, stations and on services will allow students to feel safer. Consideration should also be given to students who store bikes at stations, and how the security of this could be increased.

7. Night services from Liverpool city centre & university campus buildings to student areas Students are mainly on campus during the day, but there will be times, particularly during exam and deadline period, where they use learning resources centres and other campus facilities late into the evening. As well as this, many students also socialise in the evening into the early hours. As there are no night services, students either have to pay for a taxi home, or some choose to walk home as they don’t have enough money left to pay for a taxi. This is a major student safety issue and they can put themselves and their belongings at risk, particularly if they have expensive study materials such as laptops and tablets.

8. Better route management to support students There are peak times and routes where students and other members of the public use public transport links to commute. It is often the case that students end up being late to lectures as there are not enough buses/trains on peak routes at peak times to cope with the increased demand. There are also specific routes where there are no direct transport links for students to get to campus, meaning students have to take multiple buses/trains to travel. Whilst this is inconvenient, it also adds on a substantial amount of time to their journeys each day. Having better route management to cater for this, as well as services with more capacity on peak routes at peak time would ease the pressures and increase the satisfaction levels for students and all members of the public, as well as the operators themselves.
