QUINN ESTATES LIMITED PROPOSED MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT, NORTH WEALD GOLF CLUB PUBLIC TRANSPORT STRATEGY 17TH FEBRUARY 2020
1.0 Introduction 1.1 Connect Consultants Limited is a firm of specialist highways, traffic and transportation planning consultants that has been instructed by Quinn Estates Limited in respect of their planning application for a mixed-use development on the former North Weald Golf Club, land north and south of the A414, North Weald Bassett. 1.2 A Transport Assessment (TA) was produced by Connect Consultants Limited dated June 2018, to support planning application (local authority reference: EPF/1494/18) for a mixed-use development on the former North Weald Golf Club site. The application was submitted to Epping Forest District Council (EFDC) on 7th June 2018. 1.3 A further TA, dated June 2019, and subsequent Technical Notes (TN’s) have also been produced by Connect in relation to the golf course site proposals (details are provided below). 1.4 As part of the development proposals presented in the Connect June 2018 and June 2019 TA’s, a number of measures are proposed to mitigate the impact of the proposed development. These include the following measures relating to public transport: - • The 419 TrustyBus service that ran along the A414 between the northern and southern sites up until January 2018, will be re-instated and re-routed through the proposal site via the proposed access junctions. The re-instated bus service will be enhanced to provide a frequent and customer friendly service. • Approximately 3 hectares of land will be reserved for a possible future park and ride scheme. This scheme has the potential to tie in with wider public transport initiatives.
1.5 At a meeting between Connect Consultants Limited, Quinn Estates Limited and Essex County Council held on the 25th October 2019, further details of the public transport proposals were requested in the form of a Public Transport Strategy. 1.6 This Technical Note (TN) has been produced to provide a Public Transport Strategy for the site including details of both the bus service upgrades and Park and Ride proposals.
2.0 Planning Application Supporting Documents 2.1 As detailed above, a TA was produced by Connect Consultants Limited dated June 2018, to support planning application (local authority reference: EPF/1494/18) for a mixed-use development on the former North Weald Golf Club site.

2.2 The June 2018 TA provides details of the site’s existing public transport access and the development proposals including the public transport mitigation proposals detailed at Section 1.4 above. 2.3 A meeting was held between TrustyBus, a local bus operator, Connect Consultants and Quinn Estates limited on 27th September 2017 to discuss diverting their existing 419 bus (which at the time ran along the A414 between the northern and southern sites) into the proposed development site. A letter of support written by TrustyBus was provided at Appendix 5 of the June 2018 TA, a copy of which is provided at Appendix 1 of this TN. 2.4 The TA also detailed the land available for a possible future park and ride scheme (shown on the proposed site plan at Appendix 1 of the TA). 2.5 Comments in relation to the highways aspects of the scheme were received from Highways England (HE) in an email dated 6th July 2018 and from Essex County Council (ECC) in an email dated 26th July 2018. A Technical Note (TN001) was produced by Connect, dated 21st September 2018, to provide Connect’s response to the comments following a meeting with both HE and ECC on 16th August 2018. 2.6 At the meeting on 16th August 2018 discussions were held in relation to the potential park and ride and enhances bus service proposals. This included discussions in relation to whether the historic rail route from North Weald Bassett to Epping could be used as either a light rail or bus transit corridor, forming a North Weald to Epping Underground Station Park and Ride system. Following the meeting Quinn Estates Limited engaged with Epping Ongar Railway, the owners of the historic rail route, with the outcome of these talks’ resulting in the proposals being unfeasible. 2.7 Further comments in relation to the highways aspects of the scheme were received from HE in an email dated 20th November 2018, and from ECC in an email dated 6th December 2018. 2.8 A revised TA, dated 21st June 2019 was produced to accompany a new planning application for a revised scheme, based on an altered development quantum, on the North Weald Golf Club site. The proposed site plan was included at Appendix 1 of the TA, a copy of which is provided at Appendix 2 of this TN. 2.9 The TA took account of the above highway comments made by ECC and HE, with a TN dated 25th produced to accompany the TA, providing responses to all comments. 2.10 The public transport proposals presented within the June 2019 TA remain the same as those presented within the June 2018 TA. 2.11 HE and ECC are currently in the process of reviewing the June 2019 TA and subsequent TNs.
3.0 ECC Meeting 25th October 2019 3.1 As detailed above, a meeting between Connect Consultants Limited, Quinn Estates Limited and ECC was held on the 25th October 2019 to discuss the latest proposals presented within the June 2019 TA. 3.2 The public transport proposals, including the provision of land for a Park and Ride and the proposed TrustyBus service were discussed.
Page 2
3.3 ECC sought clarifications in relation to how the Park and Ride would be delivered, e.g. by ECC or Quinn Estates Limited. There are not many Park and Rides within Essex, and so the ECC Passenger Transport Team would require further consideration of how the facility would operate. 3.4 Combining the 419 bus service proposals (diverting the bus through the development site to provide bus access for all dwelling) with a Park and Ride car park was discussed at the meeting. 3.5 This TN has been produced to provide a Public Transport Strategy for the ECC Passenger Transport Team, following a meeting between Connect and TrustyBus on 27th November 2019 to discuss the above proposals.
4.0 Existing Site Access by Bus 4.1 The publication ‘Planning for Public Transport in Developments’ produced by the Institution of Highways and Transportation (IHT) specifies that new developments should be located within 400m of the nearest bus stop. 4.2 The closest bus stops to the proposal site are located on the B181 High Road (to the south of the A414 High Road / Weald Bridge Road / B181 High Road roundabout) c1.3km walk distance from the centre of the proposal site. The A414 is however not conducive to walking. The southbound bus stop benefits from a lay-by, shelter with seating and timetable information whilst the northbound stop is served by a pole with timetable information. 4.3 Further bus stops are located on the B181 High Road (near the centre of North Weald Bassett), c2km walk distance from the centre of the proposal site for the southbound and northbound stops respectively. The northbound stop is served by a pole with timetable information whilst the southbound stop benefits from a shelter with seating and timetable information. These stops can be accessed by Church Lane or Merlin Way. 4.4 The above bus stops and their walk routes shown at Inset 1 below.

5.0 TrustyBus Service History 5.1 Since initial discussion began with TrustyBus in September 2017 changes to their North Weald bus services have occurred. An overview of the changes are provided below.
419 Bus Service 5.2 Until January 2018, the 419-service travelled along the A414, between the northern and southern parts of the proposal site, on its route from Harlow to Epping via North Weald, and vice versa. The service ran at a 30-minute frequency Monday to Friday, with no service on Saturday or Sunday. The former 419 timetable is provided at Appendix 4. 5.3 At this time the 420 service ran from Harlow to Epping, followed by North Weald on its route to Ongar (and vice versa). 5.4 A map detailing the above, pre-January 2018 services is provided at Inset 2 below.
Inset 2 – 2017 TrustyBus Service Map
5.5 As part of the North Weald development proposals, on the 27th September 2017 it was discussed at the meeting between Connect, Quinn and TrustyBus, that the 419 service would be re-routed from the A414 along Rayley Lane into proposed development site. The 419 service would then travel through the site and re-join the A414 (the 419 route) at the proposed roundabout access junction on the eastern site boundary.
Page 5
5.6 The provision of a bus gate on the southern site boundary would allow the potential for future bus connections with allocated development sites to the south. 5.7 Dependent on demand, the frequency of the 419 service would be increased to a bus every 15 minutes, 7 days a week. On weekdays the service would be extended to run from 5am to midnight in order to support early morning and later evening commuters, dependent on customer demand. 5.8 Improving the TrustyBus vehicles themselves to provide an executive service for customers (provision of on-board Wi-Fi and USB sockets), development branding of buses and the bus emissions standards were also discussed, with TrustyBus being in support of providing a sustainable, low emission (e.g. hybrid), environmentally friendly bus service. 5.9 In December 2017, the costs of providing Wright Bodied Streetlite hybrid buses (specification provided at Appendix 5) were investigated. To provide a high specification bus including leather seating, wood effect floors and USB sockets at the time would cost in the region of £135,000 per bus. Leasing is also available which would cost approximately £1600 per vehicle, per month over a 5-year period.
420 / 420A Bus Service 5.10 The above 419 service was replaced by the 420A service in January 2018. The service, which is still operational, travels from Harlow to Epping to North Weald Bassett (and vice versa) on the B181 opposed to from Harlow to North Weald on the A414. 5.11 The 420A service terminates at the Talbot roundabout (North Weald), c1.1km east of the proposal site. 5.12 The 420 service continues, as it did prior to January 2018, to run from Harlow to Epping, followed by North Weald on its route to Chipping Ongar (and vice versa). 5.13 A map detailing the current services, including the 420 and 420A is provided at Inset 3 below.
Page 6
Inset 3 – Current TrustyBus Service Map
5.14 In February 2018 it was agreed between Connect and TrustyBus (via an email dated 14th February 2018) that when the development is implemented, the 419 service will be reinstated and re-routed through the proposal site as previously agreed. 5.15 Since the 420A bus service was introduced in January 2018, changes to the 420 and 420A timetables have occurred increasing the frequency of the both services. 5.16 The 420 service currently runs from 04:55 (Harlow Bus Station) to 21:00 (Ongar High Street) Monday to Friday, at a frequency of up to every 30 minutes. The 420A service runs from 05:40 (Harlow Bus Station) to 20:29 (The Talbot, North Weald) Monday to Friday, also at a frequency of up to every 30 minutes. Therefore, the combined frequency of the service between Harlow, Epping and North Weald is a bus every 15 minutes at peak times. 5.17 On Saturdays the 420 service currently runs from 06:25 (Harlow Bus Station) to 19:16 (Ongar High Street), at a frequency of up to every 60 minutes. The 420A service runs from 06:55 (Harlow Bus Station) to 18:21 (The Talbot, North Weald) Monday to Friday, at a frequency of up to every 30 minutes. Therefore, the combined frequency of the service between Harlow, Epping and North Weald is a bus every 20 minutes at peak times. 5.18 On Sundays the 420 service currently runs from 07:30 (Harlow Bus Station) to 19:56 (Epping Station), at a frequency of up to every 60 minutes. The 420A service does not run on Sundays.

5.19 From 1st December 2018 to 30th November 2019, 687,321 passengers travelled on the 420 and 420A services, making it TrustyBus’s most popular route. This equates to approximately 1,880 passengers a day, many of which use the service to access Epping Underground Station.
420 / 420A Central Connect Service 5.20 In June 2019, TrustyBus began to filter in a new fleet of buses onto the 420 route under the brand name Central Connect. The new buses, some of which are double deckers, are equipped with USB chargers, ayses LED blinds and enhanced CCTV. 5.21 Bus tickets can currently be bought in advance online at mymobiletickets.com or via the mymobiletickets app. These include single, return, daily & weekly tickets. Student discounts are also available. 5.22 TrustyBus are also currently in the process of implementing a new ticketing system, operated by Kazoot. The ticketing system, which is planned to be introduced in January / February 2020, will enable contactless payments on each bus and an app that will provide real time bus locations alongside a ticketing purchase service. Information on Kazoot can be obtained from https://www.ticketer.co.uk/kazoot/.
Summary 5.23 As detailed above, despite the removal of the 419 service, TrustyBus have upgraded their 420 and 420A services, increasing the bus frequency, providing high quality buses and the planned introduction of a new bus ticketing system in early 2020. 5.24 The service is their most popular route (1,880 passengers per day) with a number of passengers travelling from Harlow to access Epping Underground Station.
6.0 TrustyBus Meeting – October 2019 6.1 As detailed above, the potential for combining the enhanced bus service proposals with the Park and Ride were discussed at the ECC meeting on 25th October 2019, so as to inform the provision of a park and ride service, for which land is currently safeguarded within the planning application. 6.2 Subsequently a meeting was held between Connect and TrustyBus on Wednesday 27th November 2019 to discuss combining their bus service with the Park and Ride proposals. Discussions also included providing zero emission buses and charging infrastructure. 6.3 TrustyBus are in support of combining the Park and Ride car park with their re- instated 419 and 420A bus services to provide a service to Epping Station. TrustyBus are also in support of using zero emission or hybrid buses, dependant on feasibility. 6.4 The subsequent Public Transport Strategy is proposed as part of the North Weald development.

7.0 Proposed Public Transport Strategy Proposed Park and Ride 7.1 It is considered that as part of the development proposals, funding for the provision of a 200-space car park to be provided on the northern parcel of the development site, to facilitate a park and ride facility (buses to be operated by TrustyBus or alternative operator) could be secured by S106 agreement. The park and ride will have the primary aim of providing a car park and bus link to / from Epping Underground Station. 7.2 Epping station is located in Zone 6 of the London Underground and served by the Central line with Epping to Bank (London) taking 38 minutes. Subsequently, a large number of commuters travel from Harlow and the surrounding areas to Epping Station to commute into central London by underground. It is also significantly cheaper than traveling by national rail from one of Harlow’s two stations. As a result all 541 station car parking spaces are typically taken by 8am on a weekday morning. 7.3 The proposed park and ride will therefore provide additional parking for commuters of Epping Station or alternatively reduce vehicle movements in to Epping by facilitating an alternative access strategy for commuters. It will also act as an overflow car park for the proposed sports facilities. As it will be largely used by commutes travelling to / from Epping Station, the facility is likely to be busiest Monday to Friday. On Saturday and Sundays when the Park and Ride is likely to be quieter the car park will be used to support sporting events on the North Weald site. 7.4 The 200 parking spaces to be funded via the development and secured via s106 will include dedicated disabled, parent and child, cycle and electric charging spaces for cars and bus charging infrastructure. Toilet facilities will also be provided. 7.5 A bus stop / customer waiting area, which will include timetable information and links to the proposed ticket app Kazoot, will be provided alongside a dedicated turing area (near to proposed A414 roundabout) for the bus services. 7.6 Additional parking could be provided depending on demand, with funding secured to deliver this via the development.
Proposed Bus Service 7.7 As before, the development proposals include re-instating the 419 route from Harlow to North Weald and on to Epping and vice versa (shown at Inset 2 above). 7.8 The reinstated 419 bus service will run from the A414 along Rayley Lane into proposed development site. The 419 service would then travel through the site, serving a number of strategically placed bus stops to ensure all dwellings are located with 400m of a stop. The bus would then utilise the proposed A414 roundabout junction to access the proposed park and ride car park on the northern parcel of land before re-joining the A414 (the former 419 route). The route would also be undertaken in reverse. 7.9 The bus gate provided off Vicarage Lane West will, in the future, enable the proposed bus service to potentially link in with the local plan allocation developments, in particular the 728 dwelling residential development to the south of Vicarage Lane West.
Page 9
7.10 The 420A service which currently terminates at the Talbot roundabout (North Weald), c1.1km east of the proposal site will be extended to include the proposed park and ride car park (and the proposed housing, dependent upon demand). The above routing through the proposal site and to the Park and Ride car park is shown at Inset 4 below. Inset 4 – Proposed Bus Routing
7.11 A number of other improvements were discussed at the meeting in relation to the 419 / 420A bus service, and the proposals are to provide the following enhancements: - • Ensure that, between the 419 and the 420A services, the development site, park and ride car park and the future park and ride are served by at least a 15- minute bus frequency during peak times. • Both services will run 7 days a week including Saturday and Sunday. • Extend the times of the services from 5am to midnight to support early morning and late evening commuters (dependant on demand). • Extend the route of the 419-bus service to Harlow Central Train Station or Alexandra Hospital instead of terminating at the bus station (dependant on demand). • Continue to improve the vehicle specification to provide an executive service for customers e.g. provision of on-board USB sockets and Wi-Fi.
Page 10
• Include the provision of the new TrustyBus ticket sales system / app (Kazoot) which will include contactless payments on board and real time bus tracking. • Provide EV charging infrastructure for the bus service at the park and ride facility.
7.12 Inset 5 below shows the potential full routes of the above services. Inset 5 – Full Bus Routes
7.13 Currently the 420 / 420A bus service runs a 15-minute frequency at peak time, with the circulation of 9 buses between them. The buses aren’t specific to either service. 7.14 In excess of 3 additional buses will be needed to run the 420 / 420A and 419 service at a frequency of every 15 minutes from the proposed dwellings and park and ride car park. 7.15 A phased approach in providing the Park and Ride and above bus service will be co- ordinated between TrustyBus (or alternative operator) and Quinn Estates as the development is built out. Funding will also be agreed. 7.16 The demand for the service will be monitored via the ticket sales system. The 420 / 420A currently experience high customer numbers.
Page 11
Zero Emission Buses 7.17 In addition to the above, TrustyBus are in support of using zero emission buses similar to those used by TfL in London, and Arriva in locations such a Shrewsbury and Liverpool, to facilitate the re-instated 419 route. Their use does however depend on a number of factors including the provision of charging facilities, charging infrastructure / power requirements, run distance, bus specification and unit / lease cost. All of which could be funded via s106 agreement alongside the park and ride facilities. 7.18 TrustyBus would not have the infrastructure to charge the electric buses at their existing depot and so proposed, at the meeting on 27th November 2019, that a secure compound / depot to store and charge the electric buses could be provided on the North Weald Park and Ride site to be funded via s106 agreement from the proposed development. 7.19 The following two types of zero emission electric buses have been investigated in order to understand initial costs: - • Yutong E10 Full Electric Midi Bus and E12 12m Full Electric Bus (specifications at Appendix 6). • Enviro200Ev Full Electric Bus (specification at Appendix 7).
7.20 Following correspondence with Pelican Bus and Coach and Alexander Dennis, both buses cost in the region of £350,000 per bus with charging infrastructure costs dependant on power supply, number of chargers etc. As detailed above three additional buses would be needed alongside an on-site charging facility to facilitate the zero emissions service. 7.21 Further in-depth research and investigation will need to be carried out into feasibility and costings of zero emission buses between Connect Consultants, Quinn Estates, TrustyBus and electric bus operators however, it is proposed that the s106 Heads of Terms would fund the delivery of zero emission buses alongside required charging infrastructure and the Park and Ride.

StreetSavvy 9.5m StreetLite Vehicle Layout and Seating Plan
Designed for a long and profitable life
Ease of servicing and low whole life cost is designed into every Wrightbus StreetLite. A ‘demountable skid’ slides out from the rear of the vehicle to provide rapid access to the engine, gearbox, cooling pack, air filter and exhaust. The main electric centre and battery enclosure are in a single and easily accessible position inside the vehicle, providing a clean environment for diagnostic checks and other maintenance. SMALL BUT SMART Outside the vehicle, the engine air intake is positioned at height for longer operational life, whilst the top mounted wiper system is deliberately placed outside of the crash zone. Should accident damage occur, the removal of exterior panels for replacement or repair is simple, thanks to quick release panels and the Wrightbus AluminiqueTM body structure.
Extensively tested and complete with a 2 year key components warranty, StreetLite also comes with the benefit of lifetime support from Wright Customcare. A network of Mobile Support Engineers and Customer Service Centres means ready availability of servicing, repairs and parts support, including panels and glazing. As a result, unplanned downtime is kept to an absolute minimum.
