For each city, automatic and manual cycle count data will be analysed for between one and three cycle infrastructure schemes, to assess to what extent they result in an increase in cycling. In most of the cities, the change in cycling volume on the infrastructure schemes will be compared with the change in cycling volume at one or several comparison sites, which are similar to the locations where the infrastructure is being improved, but will not receive any intervention. In all, 14 schemes will be evaluated. These schemes comprise a significant proportion of the CCA programme in each of the cities, costing between 18% and 66% of the DfT grant. Five of the cities have already completed the schemes that will be evaluated, during Phase 1 of the CCA programme. Two cities have partially completed their schemes, and one has not yet started construction of the schemes that will be evaluated. The schemes to be evaluated include: two examples of an extended ‘cycle superhighway’ along a main road radial corridor in a major city four examples of shorter sections of segregated cycle route along a main road three examples of a ‘mixed strategic cycle route’ that combines quiet roads, routes through green space, and short sections of segregated path alongside more major roads three examples of city-centre schemes one example of a comprehensive package of off-road improvements on a network of canal towpaths one example of treatment of a difficult junction in a small city. This baseline and interim report confirms which sites will form the comparators for each of the schemes and describes cycling trends (pre-intervention and, where relevant, post- intervention) from automatic cycle counters and/or manual counts at the infrastructure schemes and at the comparison sites. Early findings suggest that some of the schemes have already resulted in an increase in cycling volumes, although it is not possible to say at this stage to what extent this is due to more cycle trips being made, or existing cyclists changing their route to take advantage of the new infrastructure. Other schemes do not at this stage show clear evidence of an increase in cycling, but this may be partly due to limited post-intervention data. Cycle City Ambition Programme: Baseline and Interim Report 1 | Page City-level and programme-level evaluation The report describes ‘city-wide’ cycling trends in each of the eight cities, drawing on automatic and manual cycle count data and analysis of data on participation in cycling from the Active People Survey and 2011 Census. It also documents programme-level evidence on participation in cycling. Trends at the programme-level as shown by analysis of the Active People Survey will be compared in future reports with trends in three comparison groups of local authorities (‘national’, ‘matched’ and ‘unfunded’) and these comparison groups are defined and the baseline data for them is also reported. In six of the cities, automatic and manual count data suggests an upward trend in cycling volumes, which pre-dates the CCA programme. However, analysis of the Active People Survey does not provide convincing evidence of any programme-level increase in cycling participation at this stage.

Christina Biggs – Rail and Transport Issues (Pages 16-18) 4. Andy O’Brien - WECA’s transport thinking and funding strategies (Pages 19-167) STATEMENT 1 – DICK DANIEL I am submitting the BATA reasons for instead investing in a tram / light-rail network for Bristol, Bath and the region. A proposal which will actually get people to switch from cars to trams, as I say in the submission, a switch that has never been demonstrated by buses, we are not against buses, we want buses, we want trams to be the backbone feed and linked to a comprehensive network of bus routes. I have also attached a chart showing the rise in passages numbers of the Manchester tram Metrolink, which has increased the numbers traveling by tram almost every year and now stands at 44.3 million journeys in the 2019/20 financial year. Also a short video of trams in the historic centre of Seville. A more technical document on the 'Technical, sociological and economic reasons why trams are an essential backbone to a bus based transport system’. Best regards Dick Dick Daniel BATA Board Member https://bathtrams.uk 1 BATH AREA TRAMS ASSOCIATION WECA 16th October 2020 The UK now has a growing list of cities and city-regions that has discovered that investing in trams / light-rail pays off. These are following the lead of cities around Europe and the world, including the USA, regions that are at the forefront of taking action on climate change, healthy active citizens and are highly economically productive.

The education indicators are based on a combination of three years' of school performance data, where available, and combined using z-score methodology. For further information on this please follow the link below. 2. 'Yes' in the Level 2 or Level 3 column means that a candidate from this school, studying at this level, meets the criteria for an education indicator. 3. 'No' in the Level 2 or Level 3 column means that a candidate from this school, studying at this level, does not meet the criteria for an education indicator. 4. 'N/A' indicates that there is no reliable data available for this school for this particular level of study. All independent schools are also flagged as N/A due to the lack of reliable data available. 5.
