    Greater Manchester Transport Strategy 2040 Executive Summary

    GREATER MANCHESTER TRANSPORT STRATEGY 2040 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A sustainable urban mobility plan for the future February 2017 2 GREATER MANCHESTER TRANSPORT STRATEGY 2040 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Contents 1 Introduction 4 2 Our vision 5 3 Critical transport challenges 6 4 Keeping it customer-focussed 10 5 From local neighbourhoods to global markets 13 6 Making it happen 22 3 1 Introduction 1. Greater Manchester is changing. Not only is it growing, both in terms of population and economy, it is also on a path towards significant devolution of powers and funding from central Government, supported by a directly- elected mayor. It is in this context of change that we are developing our 2040 Transport Strategy. 2. The aim is to establish a fully integrated, high capacity transport system for Greater Manchester, with travelling customers at its heart. 3. Transport is crucial in supporting Greater Manchester’s ambitious plans – growth will need and be driven by new connectivity. This is true on both a local and pan-northern level; Greater Manchester has a fundamental role to play at the heart of a successful Northern Powerhouse. 4. Why 2040? The opportunities offered by devolution and greater local determination allow us to take a much bolder and longer-term view of our transport needs. We want to take this opportunity to ensure that we can sustain the success of Greater Manchester for generations to come. 5. Our 2040 Vision for Transport, which we consulted on in 2015, set the scene for the start of a radical, and ambitious, new approach to planning our transport system in support of long-term needs and aspirations.

    Two Kiwis on Their Way out of NRL: Kiwis Coach Stephen Kearney Is Philosophical About Two Kiwis Leaving the NRL to Pick up More Money in England

    TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 18 May 2009 RE: Media Summary Tuesday 12 April to Monday 18 May 2009 They are happy helping others: One helps out people from the other side of the world, one mentors the troubled kids at her league club, and another just looks after his mum. What the five winners of this year's Young Community Leaders Awards have in common, though, is a dedication to social work, rather than their social lives. Emma Daken, Teresa Edge, Henare Mihaere, Fofo Molia and Libby Tuite were chosen from nearly 60 nominees to receive the awards, which recognised Wellingtonians under the age of 25 working in the not-for- profit sector, either as a volunteer or in a paid position. Anzac test to stay - and it'll be in Brisbane: Despite the Kiwis' dire results in mid-year tests across the Tasman, the Anzac league test is likely to survive and remain in Brisbane because the New Zealand Rugby League cannot afford to host the game. NZRL chairman Ray Haffenden admits there are conflicting views about the test's value after New Zealand's run of eight successive defeats but has given it his backing and said the league cannot afford to scrap the game, nor host it. No sign of league World Cup cash: Six months since the World Cup final, the much-trumpeted tournament profit apparently still sits in a Rugby League International Federation bank account. New Zealand has not been told what the final profit is, or how it will be distributed and RLIF boss Colin Love couldn't be reached last night.
