Accessible travel for the people of the West Midlands is an integral aspect of our goal of transforming public transport.

  • West Midlands Weekly Economic Impact Monitor Issue 24 Publication Date 03/09/20
    West Midlands Weekly Economic Impact Monitor Issue 24 Publication Date 03/09/20 This monitor aims to pull together information across regional partners to understand the impacts of Covid19 on the economy. Where possible it will utilise all forms of quantitative and qualitative intelligence. However we urge caution in the use of the contents as this is an emerging situation. This week This week we focus on the dilemma of returning to the office and the impact on cities. Most commentators highlight that homeworking is a trend here to stay, at least in the medium term. Cities will need to adapt their offer and opportunity to attract people and businesses back. It is worth noting that as places open up and people become more mobile, responding to positive coronavirus cases takes longer as the number of contacts are increased. Outbreaks are commonly linked with workplaces but more general outbreaks could be linked to transport infrastructure, taxis and car sharing and the general opening up of the economy/society. Main points are: • Europe has seen a resurgence in infection rates. The United Kingdom, Germany, and Italy all had just 15 or less per million; however even those low numbers are higher than what was seen earlier in the summer • Open Table data shows the ‘eat out to help out’ policy and the August Bank holiday impact with a rise of 216% on the 31st August, and most other offer days a rise of around 50% in diners. • Mobility across Europe remains significantly below previous years, which large variation. France, Germany, Italy and Spain all remain relatively low, but the UK is growing around retail centres.

  • Transport and the Decentralisation Debate Where Do We Go from Here? See Page 12
    March 2015 Volume 17 Number 3 www.ciltuk.org.uk Transport and the decentralisation debate Where do we go from here? See page 12 Stronger Together YOUR INSTITUTE Viewpoint Let’s blow our own trumpet on 16th April 2014 was the year when the European Supply Chain Day was held for the first time. The idea is that businesses involved in logistics and transport use the day to raise awareness within the broader population of the value that logistics and transport brings to our everyday lives. On the day businesses all across Europe will be inviting members of the public to participate in a range of activities designed to promote interest in logistics, transport and the supply chain. During 2014 events were held in more than 10 countries throughout Europe and the day provided a unique opportunity to explain to the general public and particularly young people what logistics is and the career opportunities that are available. We very much welcome all ideas for events and activities and encourage as wide a range of participation as possible. For example in 2014 Jaguar Land Rover visited a primary school and talked to 90 7-9 year olds about the importance of the logistics industry, CILT Young Professionals forum invited industry speakers to talk to Uxbridge College business students and Kuehne +Nagel created a fun video which answered the question ‘What is Logistics?’ using poetry. The date for this year’s event is 16th April and I encourage you all to participate in raising the profile of your profession by engaging with European Supply Chain Day.

  • MUSEUM NEWS No
    ASTON MANOR TRANSPORT MUSEUM MUSEUM NEWS No. 69 January - March 2012 Quarterly review It is good to be able to revert to a quarterly format after last year‟s trials and tribulations. Evacuation of the old premises in Witton Lane was completed with the removal of the lower saloon of Birmingham tramcar 107 on the morning of December 28th, with a hand over of keys to the premises taking place a few hours later. For those that don‟t know, the vast majority of items and vehicles stored at Witton moved to Unit 3 Beecham Business Park, Northgate, Aldridge WS9 8TZ. While we are not presently open to the public, the opportunity has been taken to work on a number of vehicles, reports of which will appear later. A start has also been made on accessioning all documents, archives, artefacts etc., a job that we never got properly round to whilst at Witton, and one for which a proper “Collections Development Policy” is being created. If we are able to reopen then we would be looking to seek Museum‟s Accreditation of which this policy document would form an important and crucial start point. For a change I will include some sub headings in this review to highlight certain important areas in this review period. There are still a significant number of supporters who made pledges and for those who are not also members I am sending you an abridged version of this newsletter. Pledges remain „live‟ even though our efforts to save Witton failed. We will require funding to create a new museum if we can agree terms with our landlords, but at this stage I do not consider it appropriate to call in your pledge while there is no „deal‟ actually on the table.
