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.

This agreement means that the British Transport Police Authority have entered into an agreement with First Great Western to provide a specific level and type of policing. This enhanced service has been agreed by the Chief Constable and paid for outside the charges raised for general policing. The team are based at Bath Spa Railway Station. It consists of seven Police Community Support Officers (PCSO’s) (one part-time), two police officers and is supervised and managed by the co-ordinator Police Sergeant Mark Harris. After recruiting, training and the accommodation being ready at Bath the NPT went fully operational on 6th October 2008. BTP Bristol Area: Bristol Temple Meads is the main arterial station to the South-West. The Bristol police office covers the whole of Avon, Somerset and Wiltshire, plus parts of Gloucestershire and Dorset. From a crime point of view this area has a mixed proportion of offences ranging from serious crime such as robberies, assaults, sexual offences, graffiti and anti social behaviour. It also suffers from a high proportion of low level type crime such as low level disorder, theft, trespass and stone throwing. The Bristol office is currently a 24 hour 365 day station with an establishment of 1 Inspector, 5 sergeants and 16 police officers. Also a CID strength of 1 Insp. 1 Sgts. and 4 detectives. The new NPT team is responsible for high visibility policing along with the allocated police officer.
