  • Margate and Ramsgate Railway Station Forecourt Enhancements - Local Sustainable Transport Fund
    Margate and Ramsgate Railway Station Forecourt Enhancements - Local Sustainable Transport Fund To: Joint Transportation Board – 19 December 2013 By: Tim Read, Head of Transportation, KCC Classification: Unrestricted Ward: Name of Ward(s) affected (if applicable) In respect of Margate Station: Westbrook, Margate Central , Garlinge and Salmestone In respect of Ramsgate Station: Central Harbour , Northwood and Newington Summary: This report provides an update following a previous report to the JTB in September 2012. The proposed design of Margate Station Forecourt has been revised following stakeholder consultation and is now under construction. The proposed scheme to enhance Ramsgate Station Forecourt is programmed for delivery in 2014/15 and the JTBs approval is sought to begin consultation on changes on the public highway close to Ramsgate Station which facilitate cycle and pedestrian access to the station. Both schemes fall predominantly within Southeastern’s lease area on Network Rail land and are funded by Kent’s successful 2011 bid to the Department for Transport’s Local Sustainable Transport Fund. For Information 1.0 Introduction and Background 1.1 In 2011 Kent County Council (KCC), was awarded £2.3 million over four years by the government following a successful bid to the Department for Transport’s Local Sustainable Transport Fund. The fund has been established to support investment in capital and revenue initiatives that support economic growth while reducing carbon emissions. Thanet District Council officers participated in the bid development in partnership with Southeastern and Kent County Council and a letter of endorsement was received from the Chief Executive (Annex 3). 1.2 £1.5 million of the funding was allocated to improve sustainable access to key High Speed stations in the east of the county, as well as to promote and facilitate walking, cycling and public transport for onward journeys.
