  • PLATFORM 3 Is Published By: the Stourbridge Line User Group, 46 Sandringham Road, Wordsley, Stourbridge, West Midlands, DY8 5HL
    Issue 3 August 2016 CONTENTS 2 Introduction 2 Quick Quiz 3 Integrated Public Transport on the Stourbridge Line 7 Getting To The Railway Station By Bus 12 Finding Your Bus At A Railway Station 15 The Right Connections 18 Quick Quiz Answer 18 West Midlands Rail and West Midlands Combined Authority 19 Bus Services Bill 2016 PLATFORM 3 is published by: The Stourbridge Line User Group, 46 Sandringham Road, Wordsley, Stourbridge, West Midlands, DY8 5HL - 1 - www.stourbridgelineusergroup.info INTRODUCTION Better integration of public transport at railway stations is essential in the future if we are going to encourage rail travellers to get to and from their local railway station without using their car. It is true that Centro has built superb free car parks at many stations in the West Midlands but these are now reaching saturation point. The car park at Stourbridge Junction has been extended twice and now accommodates over 1,000 cars, but this car park’s success is measured by the fact that it reaches capacity at around 8 am every morning. The Stourbridge line is lucky that it has two stations with superb bus stations alongside - Cradley Heath and Stourbridge Town. However, interchange facilities could be better at most stations and are appalling at some. This special issue looks at the current situation regarding interchanging between bus and train at Stourbridge line stations. It considers how things could be improved by adopting ideas used in other areas through two articles, first published in the Newsletter supplement in 2014, but now updated. It then reports on a very productive meeting between SLUG and Centro and finishes by looking at recent announcements that offer encouragement that major improvements could take place in the near future.

    STATIONS AS PLACES Opportunity Prospectus An integrated masterplan vision and delivery plan for Longbridge Station MULTI-STOREY CAR PARK PROPOSED LONGBRIDGE BUSINESS PARK 2 DEVON WAY LONGBRIDGE TECHNOLOGY PARK OFFICES AND YOUTH CENTRE NEW PARK AND RIDE RAILWAY STATION LONGBRIDGE STATION JUNE 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 Longbridge? 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 Longbridge Station in this document and looked at different types of activity neighbouring our station, 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.

  • Being Church in Longbridge: Practical Theology of Local Churches in a Post-Industrial Community
    BEING CHURCH IN LONGBRIDGE: PRACTICAL THEOLOGY OF LOCAL CHURCHES IN A POST-INDUSTRIAL COMMUNITY by CAROLINE JILL PHILLIPS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF APPLIED THEOLOGICAL STUDIES Department of Theology and Religion School of Philosophy, Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham May 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT 2005 saw the closure of the car factory that was once economically, socially and culturally central to Longbridge, Birmingham. Following this, this thesis examines how the Church communicates the Gospel there. Employing practical theological methodology, a case study approach exploring the practice of two local churches using ethnographic methods is offered. An account of their practical theologies and their significance for God’s mission in Longbridge is given. Data analysis revealed that, over many years, ‘post-industrial’ Longbridge had lost its heart and sense of place, wrestled with belonging locally and faced future uncertainty. The local Anglican church uses incarnational theology which views locality as the arena for God’s purposes, and counter-culturally preserves local identity amidst deconstructive post-industrial forces.
