RUX congratulates Network Rail (NR) for delivering £98million of vital improvements over the late August Bank Holiday weekend. Blessed with fine albeit very hot weather, a 10,500 strong team worked round the clock to finish 448 projects on time, allowing a normal service to resume on the Tuesday. Some projects such as track renewal and the transfer of signalling control will have an immediate benefit; some will enable an improved timetable in December, while others have laid the ground for future developments. But all contribute to the Rf aim of a better railway. Well done! Roger Smith We continue with the usual roundup of news items from groups around the UK.

  • Land Off Brook Hill Lane, Dunford Bridge, Barnsley, Sheffield
    2019/1013 Applicant: National Grid Description: Planning application for National Grid's Visual Impact Provision (VIP) project involving the following works:1) Construction of a new sealing end compound, including permanent access; 2) Construction of a temporary haul road from Brook Hill Lane including widened bellmouth; 3) Construction of a temporary Trans Pennine Trail Diversion to be used for approximately 12 - 18 months; following construction approximately 410m of said diversion surface would be retained permanently; and 4) Erection of two bridges (one temporary and one permanent) along the Trans Pennine Trail diversion Site Address: Land off Brook Hill Lane, Dunford Bridge, Barnsley, Sheffield Site Description The site stretches from Dunford Bridge in the Peak District National Park to Wogden Foot LWS approximately 1.8km to the east. With the exception of the sealing end compounds at either end, the site is linear and broadly follows the route of the Trans Pennine Trail (TPT). At Dunford Bridge the site extends to the former rail tunnel entrance and includes the existing sealing end compound located behind properties on Don View. Beyond this is the TPT car park and the TPT itself which is a former rail line running from Dunford Bridge to Penistone; now utilised as a bridleway. The site takes in land adjacent the TPT along which a temporary diverted bridleway route is proposed. In addition, Wogden Foot, a Local Wildlife Site (LWS) located 1.8km to the east is included (in part) as the proposed location of a new sealing end compound; construction access to this from Windle Edge also forms part for the application.

  • The Peaks & Dales Rail Link
    The Peaks & Dales Rail Link A presentation for Matlock Town Council Hope Valley Line By Manchester & East Midlands Rail Action Partnership Robin Greenwood & Stephen Chaytow 16 th September 2019 Peaks & Dales Rail Link 1 Why Re-instate “Peaks and Dales”? The business case comes from the Hope Valley route – it’s FULL! No one is happy… • For passengers, path conflict with slower freight means an unacceptable service level • Quarries can’t react to competition from Mendips and even Nord Pas de Calais • For Transport for the North (TfN), this is the “Achilles Heel” of their passenger strategy • Yorkshire and East Midlands historically diverged over priorities for this limited capacity This led to: • the quarry consortium, over two years ago (freight led + heritage) • MEMRAP – campaigning to add a public service, from Jan 2019 © MEMRAP 2019 2 East Midland Benefits: Greening the A6 Corridor MEMRAP’s Emissions Study Derby University’s Low Carbon Unit reported to us: • 38 round trips of stone trains (in 1 week) via Matlock, will save >40% of current emissions, or 150,000kg of CO2, versus the current longer, hilly Edale / Dore route. • This ongoing saving is equivalent to weekly planting of about 15,000 trees. • Leisure trips transferred to rail save at least 50% of road based CO2 emissions, often more, as does a similar modal shift by commuters Whilst impact of the proposed Cycletrain was not included, PDNPA liked the prospect of fewer cars in the Park with better opportunities for cyclists seeking to arrive by rail. © MEMRAP 2019 3 Benefits: What’s in it for Matlock? Passenger Benefits: SUBSTANTIAL – with shift From: from private to public transport The South, Derby and Matlock 1.

    Essex Rail Strategy 2006-2011 and Beyond now we’removing informing, engaging and inspiring Foreword Essex Rail Strategy – 2006-2011 and Beyond ‘I cannot think of a higher priority for the County Council than for it to strive to achieve a first class highways and transportation system for all who live in, work in or visit the county of Essex. The challenges in front of us are enormous. Over 130,000 new homes are being proposed for Essex and its borders with surrounding authorities, the travel needs of which will have a direct impact on the transport network in Essex. All aspects of passenger transport will play a key role in delivering this vision. The County Council has therefore produced three daughter strategies to support the Local Transport Plan, focusing on how passenger transport will contribute towards a fully integrated transport network. The Road Passenger Transport, Bus Information and Rail Strategies outline the ways in which we intend to improve the lives of Essex people by addressing traffic growth, road congestion and improving public transport. They contain measures aimed at improving options for travel and access to services to develop a more effective transport network. To produce the strategies the County Council has consulted widely at regional, district and parish level, with key service providers, a wide range of user groups and the general public so that collectively they represent a tangible commitment by Essex County Council to make our County a better place to live and work and to support a decent public transport network. I am committed to delivering a transport system that meets the challenges we face in Essex and look forward to working in partnership with stakeholders to bring about the transformation we now need.’ Councillor Rodney L.

  • Yorkshire Rail Campaigner Number 48 – March 2020
    Yorkshire Rail Campaigner Number 48 – March 2020 Yorkshire President: Alan Whitehouse: Vice-Presidents: Mike Crowhurst, Alan Williams & Chris Hyomes Trans-Pennine Upgrade Under Threat! By Mark Parry With the proposed trans-Pennine high speed line being supported, we feared the upgrade of the existing line had been quietly forgotten. Transpennine Express new rolling stock at Manchester Piccadilly–Photo by Robert Pritchard The following is a joint press release from our branch and HADRAG: The Halifax & District Rail Action Group; SHRUG: Stalybridge to Huddersfield Rail Users Group; UCVRSTG: Upper Calder Valley Renaissance Sustainable Transport Group. CAMPAIGNERS in West Yorkshire are extremely concerned about lack of progress by the Government and Network Rail on infrastructure proposals that should deliver improvements for travellers in the next few years, including the TransPennine Route Upgrade (TRU). Three rail user groups and the Yorkshire Branch of Railfuture have written to Andrew Haines, Chief Executive of Network Rail, who was recently been quoted as casting doubt on TRU. In a magazine interview (RAIL 897, 29 Jan’2020) Haines had said the scope of TRU could depend on the high-speed rail proposal “Northern Powerhouse Rail” (NPR). The campaigners say NPR is decades away and will not benefit stations on regional routes that desperately need investment now. Continued overleaf… Railfuture, Yorkshire & North West Joint Branch Meeting This meeting has been postponed because of concerns about the Coronavirus. We will contact members later about alterative arrangements. 1 | Railfuture: Yorkshire Rail Campaigner 4 8 – M a r c h 2020 The campaigners have also written to Secretary of State for Transport Grant Shapps MP, and to the new Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rishi Sunak, calling for urgent, overdue projects to go ahead without further delay.

  • The National Borders of Scotland
    The National Borders of Scotland Updated July 2011 Scotland‟s national borders comprise one terrestrial border with England and several sea borders, two with England and several with other countries (the Isle of Man, Ireland, Faeroes, Norway, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands). The government of the United Kingdom has attempted to make unwarranted and illegal changes to both the terrestrial and the North Sea borders between Scotland and England. All these purported changes have been unfavourable to Scotland. The purposes of this paper are: To provide the Scottish people with complete information on Scotland‟s true national borders, including information on historic illegal attempts to change them; To expose the UK Government's recent and current bad-faith manoeuvres to change the true national borders; To expose the Scottish Government‟s dereliction of its duty to the people of Scotland by not taking constant and unceasing official action against those illegal UK Government actions; To expose the European Union‟s undemocratic, bureaucratic, imperialistic and often recklessly incompetent intrusions into Scotland‟s territorial waters. This paper is a substantial update and extension of „Scotland‟s National Borders‟, originally published by the SDA in August 2009.1 It also incorporates some material from „Scotland‟s Hijacked Oil Revenue‟, published in September 2010. This paper adds significant relevant material which has recently come to 1 The Scottish Democratic Alliance (SDA) is registered with the Electoral Commission (Edinburgh 9/07/09) as a political party. It currently operates as a think tank to prepare itself for the Scottish election in 2016. 1 of 23 light, and examines some of the ramifications of the European Union‟s Lisbon Treaty and alternatives to Scotland‟s remaining in the European Union.
