Executive Summary Introduction The Wednesbury to Brierley Hill Metro Extension is in the unique position of having a valid Transport and Works Act Order in place, with funding commitments for initial development (from the Black Country Local Enterprise Partnership and the West Midlands Combined Authority) and widespread support from local authorities and the business community. The route makes use of one of the few remaining disused railway alignments left in the West Midlands, the former South Staffordshire Railway from Walsall to Stourbridge. It will provide a mainly segregated Metro service with the opportunity for fast and reliable connections between important towns and cities, in a part of the West Midlands that has historically suffered from a lack of rail based options. It will also make provisions for long-term plans to reintroduce freight traffic into the disused railway. The Metro is planned to adopt a tram- train operation so as to allow the use of both Metro trains and conventional freight services to be used, thus allowing freight traffic to avoid many congested railway locations across the West Midlands network; improving both journey time and reliability. While the local rail network has seen an increase in passenger journeys of 134% over the last 10 years, this important part of the Black Country has not realised those benefits. The recent extension of Metro into Birmingham City Centre has resulted in increased passenger demand, with patronage up by 31%

However, traffic measurements are undertaken only for a part ofthe Clustering road network with minor roads usually excluded. This paper suggests a methodology to estimate AADT in K-prototypes England and Wales applicable across the full road network, so that traffic for both major and minor roads canbe Support Vector Regression (SVR) approximated. This is achieved by consolidating clustering and regression modelling and using a comprehensive Random Forest set of variables related to roadway, socioeconomic and land use characteristics. The methodological output GIS reveals traffic patterns across urban and rural areas as well as produces accurate results for all roadclasses. Support Vector Regression (SVR) and Random Forest (RF) are found to outperform the traditional Linear Regression, although the findings suggest that data clustering is key for significant reduction in prediction errors. 1. Introduction boundaries of urban areas (e.g. Doustmohammadi and Anderson, 2016; Kim et al., 2016), or on particular types of roads (e.g. Caceres et al., 2012). Annual average daily traffic (AADT) is a measure of road traffic Secondly, most studies estimate AADT on major roads, while minor roads flow, defined as the average number of vehicles at a given location over are repeatedly excluded, with only a few studies incorporating them (e.g.

  • Stakeholder Reopening Update – May 2021
    STAKEHOLDER REOPENING UPDATE | 14 MAY 2021 BIRMINGHAM WESTSIDE METRO EXTENSION Progress photos - May 2021 What businesses can expect when they return on 17 May 2021 From Monday 17 May, indoor hospitality venues and attractions along Broad Street will be welcoming back customers as England enters the next stage of the Government’s Covid-19 roadmap out of lockdown. The Midland Metro Alliance have continued to work closely with partners at Transport for West Midlands (TfWM), Birmingham City Council and Westside BID to ensure the area is ready to accommodate the safe return of customers. A considerable amount of activity took place in the weeks preceding 12 April when venues were planning to open for outdoor service, and, despite inclement weather, finishing works have been ongoing throughout April and May allowing additional outdoor space to be provided to venues who are reopening their doors next Monday to welcome customers again. Just past the edge of Broad Street, on the way to Edgbaston, another milestone for the project was reached last month with the final tracks for the Birmingham Westside Metro extension welded into place signalling that the project is truly entering its final stages (see overleaf). We recognise that every business is different and you may have some specific questions about our activities as you continue to plan your re-opening. You are able to get in touch with Shervorne Brown, your dedicated Stakeholder Liaison Officer, on the details on the last page. Final piece of track is welded into place Marketing support provided for A major milestone was reached on the project recently as businesses in April the last piece of track was welded into place on Hagley In last month’s reopening special, we Road.
