EXMIQ150 Flaxby Park Matter 12 Appendix 3 Redacted

CirtranSruw _,, MOBILITY INSPIRED BY YOU 20 November 2018 Nigel Foster Fore Consulting 34 Wellington Street Leeds LS1 2DE VIA EMAIL Dear Nigel Flaxby Park Development Further to our discussions, I write in reference to your plans for the Flaxby Park development alongside the support of quality bus provision by The Harrogate Bus Company to Harrogate and_Knar.esbor_ou_gh, and potentially Boro.ug,hj;)r~-<,..· __ We would suggest the extension and adaptation of our existing 1A service, which already serves Harrogate, Starbeck, Knaresborough and St James every 30 mins during the daytime using our established provision of quality, low emission buses. We discussed a route that would circle the main perimeter road of the development (ideally with no speed humps or difficulties for our vehicles to navigate safely and comfortably) that would offer conventent access to housing and local facilities, as well as a potential park and ride facility near the main entrance/junction with the A59. This route could, potentially, also serve th~ consented employment site at Green Park to the south of the A59, subject to timetables and demand. This would require an element of pump priming from development funds with the aim of this, ideally and in the longer term, maturing into a commercial provision. The annual cosl of this, based on 2018 prices, would be in region of £150K for a Mon-Sat service or £125K for a Mon Fri provision. The proposed number of houses at Flaxby Park, and its proximity to Knaresborough and Harrogate, should generate sufficient demand to support an attractive bus service. ... We would welcome further discussions in due course on the opportunity to review current NYCC supported service 21 to strengthen links from the development to Transdev Blazefield Limited Prospect Park, Broughton Way, Starbeck, Harrogate HG2 7NY Tel: 01 423 884689 fax: 01423 819909 Registered office: Prospect Park, Broughton Way, Starbeck, Harrogate HG2 7NY.

Mr C Booth V Transdev Blazefield Ltd: 1805268/2019
Case No: 1805268/2019 Code V EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS Claimant: Mr C Booth Respondent: Transdev Blazefield Ltd Heard at: Leeds (by CVP) On: 1-2 September 2020 Before: Employment Judge Parkin Representation Claimant: Mr A Macmillan, Counsel Respondent: Ms R Jones, Counsel RESERVED JUDGMENT The Judgment of the Tribunal is that: 1) The claimant was fairly dismissed by the respondent and his unfair dismissal claim is dismissed; and 2) The claimant was not wrongfully dismissed by the respondent and his breach of contract claim is dismissed. REASONS 1 The claim and response 1.1 By a claim form presented on 8 October 2019, the claimant claimed unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal from his post as Transport Manager with the respondent, based at York and Malton, on 30 May 2019. He set out that he had been dismissed summarily for three counts of alleged gross negligence consisting of allowing a bus to be used in service without an MOT certificate, failing to follow the advice of a health and safety professional in respect of a student’s work experience and cleanliness of the depot and bus fleet. He maintained the respondent did not genuinely believe he was guilty of the allegations and had failed to adequately investigate them and to treat him consistently with other employees in similar circumstances. Although he accepted the bus was used in service without 1 Case No: 1805268/2019 Code V an MOT certificate, he maintained the respondent failed to investigate the extenuating circumstances not least its one off nature and the fact it had been transferred from Burnley and so had not been included in the MOT plan and that he did follow the advice of a health and safety professional in respect of a student’s work experience.

Written Evidence Submitted by Servant Transport Consultants 2. Personal
REF0048 Written evidence submitted by Servant Transport Consultants 1. Objective of this memorandum of Evidence. This memorandum of evidence sets out to show the relationship between: The impact on public transport of the Covid-19 pandemic “social distancing” requirements, and The need for the decarbonisation of transport to meet net zero carbon emissions targets by 2050 o and An innovative technological evolution that is already taking place in public transport vehicles to provide increased “personal space” that would serve the objectives of both of these forces for change and has already been proved to be commercially viable for a public transport operator. 2. Personal background. After university and working in the construction industry from 1977 I worked for the Chief Civil Engineer, Western Region, British Railways. In 1984 I changed engineering discipline and lead a rail vehicle design research and development project with D Wickham & Co where the main problem we were addressing was suspension design for light weight rail vehicles. Since 1991 I have been in private practice as an independent Transport Consultant, mainly in the railway industry providing track design for freight terminals, contributions to rail vehicle design, and the assessment of “over-line clearances”, “loading gauge” challenges faced primarily by freight operators wishing to move 9’-6” ISO maritime containers to and from Britain’s deep sea ports and Eurotunnel. This work, based on digital survey data supplied to me by Railtrack, was (eventually!) accepted and acted upon, as all of our deep sea ports enjoy today. This work of assessment of the true clearances available on Britain’s railway enabled me to prepare a presentation (Power-Point) for the All Party Parliamentary Rail Group (11th June 2007) on the feasibility of operating double deck passenger trains on key routes of our railway network.

2021 Book News Welcome to Our 2021 Book News
2021 Book News Welcome to our 2021 Book News. As we come towards the end of a very strange year we hope that you’ve managed to get this far relatively unscathed. It’s been a very challenging time for us all and we’re just relieved that, so far, we’re mostly all in one piece. While we were closed over lockdown, Mark took on the challenge of digitalising some of Venture’s back catalogue producing over 20 downloadable books of some of our most popular titles. Thanks to the kind donations of our customers we managed to raise over £3000 for The Christie which was then matched pound for pound by a very good friend taking the total to almost £7000. There is still time to donate and download these books, just click on the downloads page on our website for the full list. We’re still operating with reduced numbers in the building at any one time. We’ve re-organised our schedules for packers and office staff to enable us to get orders out as fast as we can, but we’re also relying on carriers and suppliers. Many of the publishers whose titles we stock are small societies or one-man operations so please be aware of the longer lead times when placing orders for Christmas presents. The last posting dates for Christmas are listed on page 63 along with all the updates in light of the current Covid situation and also the impending Brexit deadline. In particular, please note the change to our order and payment processing which was introduced on 1st July 2020.

Enhanced Partnership and Bus Service Improvement Plan
Agenda Item No. 06 REPORT TO: Overview and Scrutiny Commission DATE: 16th August 2021 SERVICE AREA: Place Shaping and Economic Growth REPORTING OFFICER: EXECUTIVE OFFICER ECONOMY & TRANSPORT (Strategic Transport Planner - David Stannard) SUBJECT: Bus: Enhanced Partnership and Bus Service Improvement Plan WARD/S AFFECTED: ALL DISTRICT FORWARD PLAN REF: N/A 1.0 PURPOSE OF REPORT 1.1 To outline the suggested measures and requests for bus service improvements to be submitted to North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC) to incorporate as part of its development of an Enhanced Partnership and Bus Service Improvement Plan. 2.0 RECOMMENDATION/S 2.1 For the Overview & Scrutiny Commission (O&S) to note and feedback on the proposed submission of the proposed list of measures set out in Section 5.0 of this report 3.0 RECOMMENDED REASON/S FOR DECISION/S 3.1 To ensure residents and visitors to the Harrogate District can benefit from improved bus services. This will help reduce the reliance on the private car for travel, reducing congestion and the adverse impacts on the environment as well as providing inclusive access to education, employment and leisure opportunities across the district and further afield. 4.0 ALTERNATIVE OPTION/S CONSIDERED AND RECOMMENDED FOR REJECTION 4.1 The alternative is to not provide any input to the engagement with NYCC. This was rejected as the Council is supportive of sustainable transport and the reduction of negative impacts from transport, such as congestion and contribution to climate change. Provision of enhanced bus services will 1 encourage uptake of travel, over the private car, helping reducing the negative impacts previously referred to.

This coincides with the 50th edition of the map, published today with an October date to reflect the start of Lumo operations. I am very grateful for their support – not least in that First Bus (www.firstgroupplc.com/about- firstgroup/uk-bus.aspx) is already a sponsor of this website. JULY 01 2021 – THE FIRST 2021 WELSH AUTHORITY TIMETABLE Whilst a number of authorities in SW England have produced excellent summer timetable books – indeed some produced them throughout the pandemic – for a country that relies heavily on tourism Wales is doing an utterly pathetic job, with most of the areas that used to have good books simply saying they don’t expect to publish anything until the autumn or the winter – or, indeed that they have no idea when they’ll re-start (see the entries in Welsh Counties section).

Volvo Receives Order for Eight Electric Buses to Harrogate in the UK
Press information Volvo receives order for eight electric buses to Harrogate in the UK Volvo Buses has received an order for eight electric buses, Volvo 7900 Electric, to Harrogate in the UK. The buyer is Transdev Blazefield. Traffic start is planned for 2018. The Harrogate Bus Company, owned by Transdev Blazefield, buys eight electric buses from Volvo. The vehicles will operate in Harrogate, 90 km northeast of Manchester. The project was unveiled at an event on February 3 where Volvo’s fully electric bus from Gothenburg was demonstrated. When the vehicles enter service in 2018, the project will be the first of its kind in the UK introducing full electric vehicles using ‘opportunity charging’ via the common interface OppCharge, whereby the charging stations can also be used by electrified buses from other vehicle manufacturers. OppCharge is now starting to be used as a common interface in more than 12 countries. Opportunity charging takes place via a specialist overhead mast, which connects to the bus via a pantograph. Charging is fully automated and takes between three and six minutes to complete. Volvo’s electric bus has 80 percent lower energy consumption than the corresponding diesel bus. “It is extremely gratifying that Volvo’s first full electric buses will enter into service in the UK next year. The UK is one of our biggest markets for our electromobility program and we are excited about working together with Transdev Blazefield to make Harrogate a UK leader in clean, green public transport”, said Håkan Agnevall, President Volvo
