The main operator is Southeastern Trains, who operate both suburban and Main Line services from a variety of locations in Kent and south east London. Thameslink manage stations on the Catford Loop line and operate services to London Blackfriars and beyond.

  • The Commercial & Technical Evolution of the Ferry
    THE COMMERCIAL & TECHNICAL EVOLUTION OF THE FERRY INDUSTRY 1948-1987 By William (Bill) Moses M.B.E. A thesis presented to the University of Greenwich in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2010 DECLARATION “I certify that this work has not been accepted in substance for any degree, and is not concurrently being submitted for any degree other than that of Doctor of Philosophy being studied at the University of Greenwich. I also declare that this work is the result of my own investigations except where otherwise identified by references and that I have not plagiarised another’s work”. ……………………………………………. William Trevor Moses Date: ………………………………. ……………………………………………… Professor Sarah Palmer Date: ………………………………. ……………………………………………… Professor Alastair Couper Date:……………………………. ii Acknowledgements There are a number of individuals that I am indebted to for their support and encouragement, but before mentioning some by name I would like to acknowledge and indeed dedicate this thesis to my late Mother and Father. Coming from a seafaring tradition it was perhaps no wonder that I would follow but not without hardship on the part of my parents as they struggled to raise the necessary funds for my books and officer cadet uniform. Their confidence and encouragement has since allowed me to achieve a great deal and I am only saddened by the fact that they are not here to share this latest and arguably most prestigious attainment. It is also appropriate to mention the ferry industry, made up on an intrepid band of individuals that I have been proud and privileged to work alongside for as many decades as covered by this thesis.

Introduction This report examines air-to-surface access integrated ticketing in support of one of the Department for Transport’s (DfT) six policy objectives in the proposed new avia- tion strategy – “Helping the aviation industry work for its customers”. Integrated Ticketing is defined as the incorporation of one ticket that includes sur- face access to/from an airport and the airplane ticket itself using one transaction. Integrated ticketing may consider surface access journeys both to the origin airport and from the destination airport. We recognise that some of the methods of inte- grated ticketing might not be truly integrated (such as selling rail or coach tickets on board the flight), but such examples were included in the report to reflect that these exist and that the customer experience in purchasing is relatively seamless.

  • West Sussex County Council Response to the Network Rail Draft Sussex Area Route Study Consultation
    Ref No: HT21 (14/15) Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport Key Decision: Yes West Sussex County Council response to the Part I or Part II: Network Rail draft Sussex Area Route Study Part I consultation Report by Director of Highways and Transport and Electoral Director of Strategic Planning and Place Divisions: All Executive Summary Network Rail is undertaking a consultation to gather views on its draft South East Route: Sussex Area Route Study. This study sets out a 30-year vision for this area of the rail network. It primarily focuses on rail industry Control Period 6 (2019-2024) to inform Government investment decisions for this time frame, but also considers growth in demand for rail travel to 2043. Consultation responses are being welcomed on any of the ideas and interventions set out in the study. The study will inform future decisions about rail infrastructure and rail service planning as well as the capacity of major stations, rather than specific timetable, service quality and station access issues which are concerns for the rail franchisee. Key issues highlighted in the County Council response include: support for investment to expand capacity for the Brighton Main Line; a request for further investment in rail infrastructure away from routes to London to support a balanced economy; support for analysis undertaken within the Study into the Arundel Chord scheme and provision of an improved journey times along the West Coastway route; and requests for greater attention to be made to level crossing and car parking issues within the study. Recommendation The Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport approves West Sussex County Council’s consultation response, contained in Appendix A of the report, for submission to the Network Rail draft South East Route: Sussex Area Route Study.

Bexhill needs to be distinctive from neighbouring Hastings and Eastbourne – both investing heavily in tech, music and events-led creative industries growth. With a clear offer for visual artists, both traditional and cutting-edge, a new narrative can be written about Bexhill as a place to work, play and visit. Investing in work space is itself more of an art than a science, and there are a number of ingredients that need to be in place in order to maximise both economic and cultural return. We will demonstrate, through case studies from the local area and further afield, that, the right kind of creative work space can attract and sustain the mix of talents that can enable a range of creative individuals and organisations to flourish and form identifiable clusters.

  • 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.
