INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of Report This Report has been prepared by Lawrence Walker Limited (LWL) in support of the proposed Thetford Sustainable Urban Extension (SUE) on land to the north of the existing Thetford urban area. The development of an SUE at this location is in accordance with the Thetford Action Area Plan (TAAP), which sets out the policies governing major expansion of the town as identified in the Local Development Framework. The purpose of the Report is to explain the proposals for the Public Transport System (PTS) which will provide direct links between the SUE, the main public transport interchange terminals in central Thetford and key longer distance destinations beyond the town. All issues associated with the design, operation, impact, funding and delivery of the proposals are addressed within the Report. The Report is part of a series of transport-related documents that will accompany the Outline Planning Application (OPA) for the development scheme. C\LAWRENCE WALKER LIMITED\LWL Projects\Miscellaneous\Thetford (6)\Reports\REPORT - PT - Apr 2011.docx 1 Thetford SUE April 2011 Public Transport Proposals The other reports in this series are:- A Transport Assessment (TA) which considers the development's access and transport infrastructure requirements and its impacts on the adjacent transport networks; A Travel Plan (TP) which presents a framework strategy together with outline targets for the use of sustainable travel options by occupying residents and employees; An A3 set of colour Figures, which show the various junction improvements and designations described in the TA; Stage 1 Road Safety Audits for the A11 junctions; Stage 1 Road Safety Audits for the local Thetford junctions and the site accesses, including Kilverstone Road, and; A report entitled “Norwich Road Capacity Assessment” prepared by LWL, which examines the link capacities along the various sections of Norwich Road to the south of the site. Together, these reports seek to address all the transport issues relevant to the proposed development. This report should therefore be read in conjunction with the above documents. C\LAWRENCE WALKER LIMITED\LWL Projects\Miscellaneous\Thetford (6)\Reports\REPORT - PT - Apr 2011.docx 2 Thetford SUE April 2011 Public Transport Proposals 1.2 Report Structure An overview of the proposals is given in Section 2. The detailed proposals and routes are explained in Section 3, together with accompanying plans. Land requirements for building the relevant infrastructure are addressed in Section 4. The wider transportation issues, including passenger forecasts and how the proposals will integrate with the existing transport network, are explained in Section 5, which also considers the need for highway modifications to accommodate the scheme. In this context, the effects of the scheme on existing travel patterns have been assessed using patronage forecasting work undertaken by Mott MacDonald to support the development of the TAAP policies on behalf of the Developers and Norfolk County Council (NCC). Section 6 provides details of the engineering infrastructure required to operate the network including guided bus-ways, stations, streetscape design and priority measures. The proposals for integration of bus services at the main Termini are described in Section 7. The proposed specification for operating the service is described in Section 8. This includes details of the vehicles, depot, control system, ticketing, timetabling, passenger information and security. C\LAWRENCE WALKER LIMITED\LWL Projects\Miscellaneous\Thetford (6)\Reports\REPORT - PT - Apr 2011.docx 3 Thetford SUE April 2011 Public Transport Proposals A full Environmental Statement for the development, including the Public Transport Scheme, is presented as a separate document supporting the site as a whole. Other issues associated with operating the system (e.g. - branding, marketing, legislation, operator and harmonisation) are, however, described within Section 9 of this Report. A financial appraisal of the proposals is given in Section 10 with the proposed programme and method of delivery presented in Section 11. Finally, a summary of the proposals is provided in Section 12. 1.3 The Proposed Development The development site is located to the north of the existing Thetford built-up area and occupies two areas of land that are separated by the Ely to Norwich railway line:- i) Thetford SUE East is bounded by the A11 to the north, the railway line to the west, Kilverstone Road to the south and open countryside to the east. It is bisected by the section of Norwich Road that links the A11 with Kilverstone Road. ii) Thetford SUE West is bounded by the A11 to the north and west, the railway line to the east and existing industrial and residential areas to the south. Both areas comprise primarily “Greenfield” land which is currently in agricultural use. At the south-west corner of the site, expansion of the existing Thetford Enterprise Park (TEP) is proposed as a component of the SUE West development. C\LAWRENCE WALKER LIMITED\LWL Projects\Miscellaneous\Thetford (6)\Reports\REPORT - PT - Apr 2011.docx 4 Thetford SUE April 2011 Public Transport Proposals The site is located between approximately 1.5km and 2.5km to the north of the town centre and as such, a new District Centre will be provided to serve the development. Because the development would cover a large area, smaller Local Centres will also be provided to the east and west of the railway line. The site’s proximity to the TEP and the A11 mean that major employment areas to the west and south-west (London Road) also lie within no more than 3-4km of the site. Thetford Railway Station lies close to the site (approximately 1.5km to the south) and is accessed from Croxton Road via Station Road. The Station lies on the "Breckland Line", which links Norwich and Ely. Generally there are two trains per hour eastbound to Norwich whilst westbound there is an hourly service to Cambridge and an hourly service to Liverpool via Peterborough and Nottingham. Other mainline services between London and northern England can be accessed by interchanging with the East Coast Main Line (ECML) at Peterborough. The location of the proposed development is shown below:- C\LAWRENCE WALKER LIMITED\LWL Projects\Miscellaneous\Thetford (6)\Reports\REPORT - PT - Apr 2011.docx 5 Thetford SUE April 2011 Public Transport Proposals The SUE would be a mixed-use development comprising prestigious employment uses, creating some 2500 new jobs on-site and providing up to 6,000 new homes.

    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

    Great Ideas for Discovering the Best of the Broads by Cycle

    Great ideas for discovering the best of the Broads by cycle • On-road cycling routes using quiet lanes, and traffic-free cycle ways • Tips on where to cycle, taking your bike on a train and bus, and where to stop off Use a cycle to explore the tranquil beauty and natural treasures of the wetland landscapes that make up the Broads – a unique area characterised by windmills, grazing marshes, boating scenes, vast skies, reedy waters and historic settlements. There are idyllically quiet lanes and virtually no hills. If you’re touring the Broads by boat, you can stop off for a while and hire bikes from several places by the water, and see some of the area’s many other attractions. Cycling in the Broads gets you to places public transport cannot reach, and you see much that you might otherwise miss from a car or even a boat. It’s also a healthy and environmentally friendly way of getting around. Centre: How Hill (photo: Tim Locke); left and right: cycling round the Broads (photos: Broads Authority) Contents An introduction to discovering the Broads by bike, offering several itineraries in one. It starts with details of using the Bittern Line to get you to Hoveton & Wroxham, where you can hire a bike and follow Broads Bike Trails, or cycle alongside the Bure Valley Railway; how to join up with the BroadsHopper bus from rail stations; ideas for cycling in the Ludham and Hickling area; and some highlights of Sustrans NCN Route 1 from Norwich.

    Raileast, and Though Slightly Smaller Than Last Time, It Probably Reflects a Relatively Fallow Period in Railway News from Our Area

    THE NEWSLETTER OF RAILFUTURE EAST ANGLIAN BRANCH www.railfuture.org.uk Number 138 June 2008 Welcome to our summer edition of RailEast, and though slightly smaller than last time, it probably reflects a relatively fallow period in railway news from our area. Nevertheless, some significant things have occurred since we last wrote to you, as you will read here CB BRANCH MEETING: Ipswich 21 June 14.15 hrs Once again we will be gathering in the Ipswich Institute Reading Room and Library which is at 15 Tavern Street. IP1 3AA is the post code if you choose to search out a map on the internet. We were hoping to entice an East Anglia specialist from Network Rail to speak, but no, it seems its hierarchy is set on organising a special meeting for stakeholders and users, such as RailFuture. As yet there is no date or venue for this. However, at our Ipswich gathering we plan to feature the projected Felixstowe line improvements, updating you on the current state of the game. RailFuture Rail Passengers and Campaigners National Conference: 5 July 2008 This rather wordy title masks the promise of a well run, stimulating meeting, in the Guildhall, Salisbury. The speakers include writer and retired BR manager, Peter Rayner plus Philip Dominey of South West Trains. To these luminaries will be added speakers on Using the Media; Transport in Wiltshire; and contributions from campaigners around the area. The vital question-and-answer session is also timetabled. The Fee is £10 for members and £12.50 otherwise. Full details are at http//www.wellho.net/railfuture.
