Nicola Ward, Senior Governance & Scrutiny Officer, GMCA introduced a report which provided the Committee with a number of operating models for consideration.

Page 8

The model within ‘option A’ consisted of a full committee (23 members) and two sub- committees (11 and 12 members) with specific and exclusive remits for Bus Services and Metrolink & Rail Services. The full committee would meet on a quarterly basis (once every three months) and would look at key strategic reports, such as performance monitoring and policy development. The Bus Services sub-committee would look at bus service performance, hold operators to account and review key policy initiatives around bus services. The Metrolink & Rail sub-committee would look at the performance of Metrolink and Rail services in Greater Manchester, hold specific providers to account and review policy development in relation to relevant areas.

The model within ‘option B’ consisted of a monthly meeting of the full Transport Committee with the agenda divided into two sections, one which covers high level strategic policy items, and the other half covering any operational issues in relation to a specific mode of transport. Transport Operators could be invited to attend the relevant committee.

Following a vote, the Committee decided that Option B would be the Committee operating model going forward.

RESOLVED /-

1. That Option B be agreed as the Committee operating model which comprises of a single transport committee with no sub committees, and an agenda separated into strategic and operational items. 2. That it be agreed that the committee model be reviewed in 6 months time. 3. That Councillor Roger Jones be appointed as lead Member for Bus Services and Councillor Doreen Dickinson be appointed as lead Member for Metrolink and Rail Services.

GMTC 14/19 OUR NETWORK

Kate Brown, Director of Corporate Affairs, TfGM introduced a report which presented the shared vision towards an integrated transport network for Greater Manchester as launched by the GM Mayor on the 24 June. The vision of Our Network was strongly routed in the 2040 Transport Strategy and furthers Greater Manchester’s journey towards a fully integrated public transport network.

Councillor Sean Fielding, GMCA added that the visual representation contained within the report has become a key diagram for the aspirations for this vision, strongly supported by the desire to roll out of the principles already delivered by Metrolink in relation to accessibility, punctuality and standards of service to all other transport modes in GM. To support this, the GMCA was continuing to press Government for the same level of transport subsidy for Greater Manchester as London.

Members welcomed the aspiration for a train line from Stalybridge to Stockport as part of the interconnectivity of outlying towns.

Members further welcomed plans for tram-train services between Bury and Rochdale via Heywood, but felt that the line between Heywood and Manchester needed to be supported through improved bus services along the route. TfGM officers agreed to meet with Cllr O’Rourke to discuss the issues further.

Members requested that further consideration be given to how bus services could support people accessing other modes of transport, such as Metrolink, and specifically in relation to residents of the Cheadle area accessing East Didsbury Metrolink Station. Officers from TfGM agreed to meet with Cllr Meller in relation to improving these links.

RESOLVED /-

1. That the report be noted. 2. That officers from TfGM meet with Councillor Liam O’Rourke regarding bus services between Heywood and Manchester. 3. That officers from TfGM meet with Councillor David Meller regarding bus linkages between Cheadle and Metrolink East Didsbury.

GMTC 15/19 TRANSPORT NETWORK PERFORMANCE

Bob Morris, Chief Operating Officer, TfGM introduced a report which provided an overview of transport network performance for May 2019, and for the first time included details on the highway network.

RESOLVED /-

That the report be noted.

GMTC 16/19 FORTHCOMING CHANGES TO THE BUS NETWORK (KEY DECISION)

Nick Roberts, Head of Services & Commercial Development, TfGM explained the format of the Forthcoming Changes to the Bus Network report, and took members through each of the annexes in detail.

Members expressed their concern regarding changes to the 81 service, as the service was run by one operator in one direction and another operator in the other direction, requiring passengers to purchase multiple tickets. First Bus responded that there have been minimal service changes to the 81 service, with the 409 service as a supporting service remaining unchanged.

A Member asked that although the late 84a service to the Merseybank area was a welcomed addition, that officers give further consideration to the service between this area and the hospital. It was felt that this service had not been well advertised, and therefore patronage levels had remained low, resulting in its withdrawal. Members urged that such services should be more actively promoted in communities, and actively designed with people to ensure that the service meets their needs.

Members asked that seasonal patronage changes to the V1 and V4 services be considered, given patronage levels were currently low, these would increase on the run up to Christmas, and services should be able to meet these demands.

A Member reported some confusion as a result of the re-numbering of services on the Rochdale/Bury routes. Officers agreed to take advice from members on this, and consider a wider role for members in relation to how they can support the dissemination of service information through communities.

RESOVLED /-

1. That the changes to the commercial network and the proposals not to replace the de- registered commercial services as set out in Annex A be noted. 2. That the proposed action in respect of changes or de-registered commercial services as set out in Annex B be agreed. 3. That the proposed changes to general subsidised services as set out in Annex C be approved. 4. That it be noted that further consideration would be given as to the role of Members in disseminating information to communities and that a future report be brought back to the Transport Committee.

GMTC 17/19 EXCLUSION OF PRESS AND PUBLIC

RESOLVED /-

Page 11 That, under section 100 (A)(4) of the Local Government Act 1972 the press and public should be excluded from the meeting for the following items on business on the grounds that this involves the likely disclosure of exempt information, as set out in the relevant paragraph, Part 1, Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 and that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.

PART B

GMTC 18/19 FORTHCOMING CHANGES TO THE BUS NETWORK

RESOLVED /-

That the financial implications of forthcoming changes to the bus network be noted.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

1.1 The Secretary of State for Transport has suggested it would be helpful for GM to succinctly articulate its vision, principles and priorities for rail-based modes, in order to strengthen Government’s ability to work with our city-region.

1.2 The GM Mayor recognises the need for a document which clarifies our ‘ask’ of Government, and:

 sets out the level of ambition in GM,

 supports and aligns with the 2040 Strategy,

 acknowledges the challenges of the rail network in GM; and

 remains realistic about the options available for progress within current railway industry structures.

1.3 The GM Mayor has recently highlighted the opportunity presented by the Williams Review for major reform of how rail services are delivered and the future requirement for GM, as part of an integrated GM transport system.

OBJECTIVES, TIMEFRAME AND AUDIENCE

2.1 The purpose of a GM Prospectus for Rail is: ‘To clearly communicate GM’s vision, objectives and delivery priorities for rail-based modes in GM for the period to 2040 and beyond, in support of local, regional and national sustainable and inclusive economic growth ambitions’.

2.2 Rail-based modes have a vital role to play in achieving world class connections which support long-term, sustainable economic growth and provide access to opportunity for all. GM needs a rail system fit for the 21st century which is efficient, resilient, inclusive, safe and secure, clean and green; which has more capacity, is passenger focused and reliable and which enables the delivery of the wider benefits articulated in the Greater Manchester Local Industrial Strategy, the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework and the Greater Manchester Transport Strategy 2040.

2.3 With regards to timeframe, the document will set out a long term vision with a clear, shorter-term delivery plan. These align with our 2040 Delivery Plan timeframes:

 Short term priorities (2020-2025)  Medium term priorities (2025-2035)  Long term priorities (post 2035)

GMTC 20190809 Rail Prospectus v0.4 01/08/2019 11:12 Page 15

2.4 The GM Prospectus for Rail covers all rail based modes, reflecting the city-region’s aspiration for a larger tram network and tram-train , and enabling us to demonstrate our strong track record in Metrolink delivery, operation and growth.

2.5 The Prospectus will comprise two documents; the main GM Prospectus for Rail and a two- page summary for decision makers and key stakeholders.

2.6 We anticipate the audience to be a range of key stakeholders including; Government (DfT and HMT in particular); local politicians, senior TfGM/GMCA and District officers; senior rail industry and other transport decision-makers including TfN.

BENEFITS OF A GM PROSPECTUS FOR RAIL

3.1 The GM prospectus is expected to bring the following benefits:

3.2 Offer clarity to Government and industry partners on what GM’s priorities are for rail-based modes and what outcomes we believe they will deliver.

3.3 Communicate GM’s work, both published (5 Year 2040 Delivery Plan 2020-2025; HS2 and NPR Growth Strategy), and emerging (particularly our Rapid Transit Strategy, recent rail studies and City Centre Transport Strategy) to a wider external audience. The prospectus will emphasise the importance not only of delivering the wider inter-city connectivity provided by HS2 and NPR, that is so important in driving and supporting the Northern economic powerhouse, but also intra-city journeys. These enable the people of Greater Manchester to get to work, study and play, and are an essential component of the ‘Our Network’ vision.

3.4 Enable GM to codify industry’s short term interventions (0-5 year) around the Central Manchester Capacity Study, Continuous Modular Strategic Planning (CMSP) and TransPennine Route Upgrade (TRU) to ensure a clear plan to deliver on performance, reliability and capacity improvements.

3.5 Provide a mechanism for communicating GM’s response to the Williams review, and to the 2019 spending review.

PROPOSED CONTENT OF GM PROSPECTUS FOR RAIL

4.1 1. The Role of Rail in GM – To include current challenges; current role and performance of rail based modes in GM (by journey type, covering passenger and freight issues) and our future vision for the role of the Metrolink and suburban rail networks set in the context of achieving GM, northern and UK priorities.

4.2 2. Principles (or Network Ambitions/Objectives) for Success - Based on the draft Rapid Transit Strategy principles:

GMTC 20190809 Rail Prospectus v0.4 01/08/2019 11:12 Page 16

 Make best use of existing rail infrastructure;  Capacity and connectivity improvements to the rail-based network;  A rail-based network that is responsive to local priorities and accountable to local people;  Support integration between rail-based transport and other modes.

4.3 3. GM’s Critical Rail-based Markets - Travel into and across the Regional Centre; Inter- urban Connectivity and Manchester Airport. Draw on 2040 ‘right mix’ vision analysis.

4.4 4. GM’s Key Priorities for National Rail services in and around GM – short- medium- and long-term priorities for inter-city connectivity; Intra-city connectivity; freight and linking up airports and ports.

4.5 5. GM Network - Our response to the Williams Review trailed the production of the prospectus (Page 6, para 1.5). We have consolidated these points into four proposed work- streams (pathways) for improving National Rail services in and around GM, which will form the content of this section, namely:

 Service design  Fares and ticketing  Legal, legislation and funding  Working with and through industry

4.6 6. Prospectus in relation to the draft Delivery Plan of the GM Transport Strategy 2040 - The immediate rail interventions planed for the next five years (2020-2025) in the Delivery Plan will remain; subject to the outcome of the recent public consultation. We will add the early milestones for the prospectus in the Delivery Plan as they emerge. At this stage, they

GMTC 20190809 Rail Prospectus v0.4 01/08/2019 11:12 Page 17

are unlikely to be physical interventions, but could (for example) include public consultations on fares or service patterns.

4.7 7. Next Steps - What do we want from Government, National Rail, TfN and franchise operators, and what will GM provide in return? This section will outline a programme of work – this will (when approved) give specific activities within the programme – e.g. converting to zonal fares for relevant franchises – analysis and options.

OUTLINE WORK PROGRAMME

5.1 The prospectus will be ready for the main party conferences mid-September. The final draft of the prospectus will be available on the 30th August.

Page 42 1. Overview

1.1 The Greater Manchester Transport Committee has a key role to oversee the provision of transport services including the performance of Metrolink, Bus and Rail Operators and the Strategic Highways Network on behalf of residents, businesses and visitors. The Committee also oversees the move towards the Our Network vision for an integrated transport network for Greater Manchester, as set out in the 2040 Transport Strategy.

1.2 This network performance report covers performance across all transport modes during June.

2. Overall Network Performance Summary

2.1 Metrolink performance was good with an improving position for both public facing measures, however repair times arising after road traffic collisions and vandalism are impacting tram availability.

2.2 The targets for rail performance in 2019-20 for Northern and TransPennine Express (TPE) have been lowered by Network Rail and TPE and Northern respectively due to the risks associated with the introduction of new rolling stock and acknowledgement of previous performance issues on GM corridors. Performance for both operators has declined from May to June and will likely be further impacted by planned infrastructure disruption and weather-related issues over the summer period.

2.3 Bus performance has maintained a good level, with performance above the targets for scheduled service reliability and overall punctuality.

2.4 Reliability on the highways network has shown improvement, reflecting a lower volume of disruptive roadworks. Reduced traffic volumes are likely to maintain good journey time reliability over the school summer holiday period. Work is progressing to coordinate planning for future disruptions to minimise the impact on the travelling public and to provide timely information to allow people to make informed travel choices.

Page 43 3. Network Overview

Events

3.1 There was a high level of pre-planned events throughout the month including the Manchester Day Parade, the Cricket World Cup and the Parklife Weekend; in addition to a number of late or no notice events in the regional centre and a large protest starting from Piccadilly Gardens headed to St Peters Square. We have started work to review, with Councils, the role of TfGM in supporting Open Streets events, including traffic management.

3.2 The Parklife weekend and concerts at other locations were successfully managed, with Metrolink carrying the largest ever number of people for these events – 80,000 journeys for Parklife and a further 20,000 for Metallica and Muse concerts at the Arena and Etihad Stadium.

Metrolink

3.3 Metrolink Network performance in terms of punctuality and reliability are published on the TfGM.com website, with individual line performance shown in addition to the overall network. An example of how this information is published in included as Appendix B.

3.4 Metrolink performance remains good with improving trends for both performance metrics. Whilst tram availability has been impacted by repairs for road traffic collisions and vandalism, this has not affected the performance of the network in terms of reliability.

3.5 Effective planning and communication for the Cricket Work Cup matches at Old Trafford allowed the efficient transportation of fans to and from the venue with minimal impact on the wider travelling public. Specific issues with heat related signalling and points failures on Metrolink services were communicated in partnership with the venue to minimise the impact on event egress.

3.6 Crime and anti-social behaviour continue to be an issue, particularly around late evening services, resulting in high levels of repairs being required to trams, with the potential to limit availability of services. TravelSafe activity continues to be directed to known problem areas.

Page 44 3.7 A presentation on network crime and anti-social behaviour and an overview of TravelSafe activity is included as part of this Agenda.

Rail

3.8 Timetable changes in May 2019 are delivering performance improvements for passengers, although crowding issues and service quality remain key topics on social media.

3.9 There has been an increase in service failures of refurbished old rolling stock (class 319) cascaded for use on GM routes.

3.10 The bridging agreement that had been in place for Sunday Working issues for Northern is no longer in effect as ASLEF members voted to reject Northern’s proposals going forward. As a result, there will be pre-planned Sunday service cancellations in addition to late notice cancellations on the day.

Bus

3.11 Bus network performance has improved in line with improvements in highways journey time reliability.

3.12 Positive engagement with Go North West following the commencement of their operation in Greater Manchester on 2 June.

3.13 Guided busway services continue to exceed patronage projections year on year. Capacity following the school summer holiday period is being reviewed.

3.14 The Yellow School Bus application portal launched on 1 June and 83% of places for the new academic year have already been allocated.

3.15 At its meeting on Friday 28 June, the GMCA agreed to proceed to instruct an independent auditor to provide a report on the Bus Reform Assessment. The auditor (Grant Thornton) commenced work on 1 July and their work is ongoing. It is proposed that an update on Bus Reform will be provided to the Board in August or September.

Page 45 Highways

3.16 Roadworks, road traffic collisions and vulnerable people continue to have an impact across all transport modes. Emergency roadworks have also been required due to flooding and sinkholes developing in a number of areas, with traffic diverting to nearby routes. All of these were managed effectively and disruption to the travelling public was minimised.

3.17 The MSIRR Phase 1 works are now nearing completion, with resurfacing works taking place overnight to minimise disruption on Regent Road and Water Street. Advance utility works have started for the Great Ancoats improvement scheme (off peak working).

3.18 Given the scale of highways works scheduled over the next 12 months, we are working with MCC, Salford and Trafford on a coordinated ‘regional centre’ approach.

3.19 The 12-month rolling number of people Killed or Seriously Injured (KSI) on GM roads has reduced slightly but exceeds the DfT forecast. The reduction is not statistically significant meaning that the reduction cannot be attributed to any specific intervention.

1. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

1.1 The Transport Committee considers all matters relating to the operation and service performance of the bus network in Greater Manchester, including commercially registered and subsidised services; Demand Responsive Services, bus stations and bus stops; passenger information services; contract monitoring; vehicle standards; and passenger safety for the subsidised bus network.

1.2 Acting under delegated authority, the Transport Committee is tasked to review closely and approve all proposed changes to the subsidised bus network and ensure that the cost of the subsidised general services is kept within the appropriate budget or any cash limits. This is achieved through:-

 rationalisation of existing services whilst maintaining key links on the network;

 engaging with operators with the objective of them taking on “marginal commercial” services; and

 continuing to redesign and restructure grouped services to ensure that maximum value is obtained from subsidy.

1.3 In general, withdrawals, reductions or amendments to services are currently only planned at the date of next renewal of the contract concerned and proposed changes will be reported to this Committee.

1.4 The governance process that leads up to the reporting to the Transport Committee involves the scrutiny of all tendered services at TfGM’s Tender Panel that consists of representatives from Legal, Procurement and Finance as well as TfGM’s Operational Service Planning and Network Performance departments.

2. 2019/20 BUDGET SUMMARY

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE SUBSIDISED NETWORK ANNEX C The Committee is invited to consider officers’ proposals on the following services:

Dist Service, route and operator TfGM officer comments and recommendations

TE 38 & 39 Following the withdrawal of the daytime commercial services 38 & 39 and their subsequent Ashton – Hazelhurst Circulars replacement by new services 336 & 337 officers recommend that the evening and Sunday journeys on these services (provided by MCT under contract to TfGM) are also revised to match Manchester Community Transport the changes to the daytime bus network. New evening & Sunday journeys on service 396 would maintain a service along Union Road. Details of distances to alternative services are shown under Annex A.

Page 75 Page Members are asked to approve the recommendation to withdraw subsidised journeys on Services 38 & 39 and replace them with new subsidised journeys on Services 336 & 337 with effect from Sunday 1st September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal. TE 232 Currently, the evening and Sunday hourly service 232 follows a very different route from the Ashton – Hurst Cross – Hartshead – daytime equivalent service (231). Broadoak – Hurst Cross Circular Officers propose revising the service to operate in and out via Hartshead (turning at Broadoak Manchester Community Transport roundabout). This will ensure that passengers travelling to and from Ashton board on the same side of the road as they would during the daytime. Services 336 & 337 will provide the links to between Ashton, Broadoak and Hurst Cross which are currently provided by service 232. Members are asked to approve the recommendation to revise the route of Service 232, to simplify the local network, with effect from Sunday 1st September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal.

Dist Service, route and operator TfGM officer comments and recommendations

TE 332 Service 332 currently runs during the evening and Sunday only, providing links that are provided Ashton – Broadoak – Smallshaw by Services 331, 333 and 393 during the daytime. Circular As those services are being withdrawn officers are recommending that Service 332 is also Manchester Community Transport withdrawn. Services 336 & 337 will maintain links between Ashton, Broadoak and the top of Smallshaw and new journeys on Service 396 will provide a service to the south of Smallshaw, along Ladbrooke Road. Members are asked to approve the recommendation to withdraw hourly evening and Sunday service 332 with effect from Sunday 1st September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal. Page 76 Page TE 336 & 337 As noted under Annex A of this report Stagecoach Manchester will be introducing new Services Ashton – Broadoak – Hurst Cross – 336 & 337 to replace First’s withdrawn Services 38, 39, 331 and 333. Hazelhurst Circulars Officers propose the introduction of subsidised hourly evening and Sunday journeys on these Manchester Community Transport services replacing subsidised services currently provided on Services 38, 39 & 332. Members are asked to approve the recommendation to introduce hourly evening and Sunday Services 336 & 337 with effect from Sunday 1st September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal.

Dist Service No. and Route Operator

TE 338 (339) Service 338 currently operates hourly during Sunday daytime providing links to Waterloo, Ashton – Waterloo – Crowhill currently provided by Services 395/396 during Monday to Saturday and to Crowhill, currently provided by Service 339 during Monday to Saturday daytime. Manchester Community Transport Further to officers’ proposal to divert Service 396 away from Waterloo during Monday to Saturday daytimes, it is proposed that Service 338 is withdrawn and replaced by journeys on Service 339 meaning Crowhill will be served by the same service 7 days a week. There is little evidence of usage along the affected section of route. Members are asked to approve the recommendation to withdraw Sunday daytime Service 338 and replace it with new journeys on Service 339 with effect from Sunday 1st September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal.

Dist Service No. and Route Operator

TE 389 Service 389 is currently operated by First Manchester, every 30 minutes during Monday to Ashton – Ridge Hill – Stalybridge – Saturday daytime, between Ashton and Hyde. Yew Tree – (Hyde – Gee Cross) As noted under Annex A Stagecoach are to replace First as the operator of the daytime service, Manchester Community Transport running a shorter route between Ashton and Yew Tree only. Currently, the subsidised hourly evening and Sunday service continues beyond Hyde to maintain links between Hyde and Gee Cross that are provided by Services 342 & 344 during the daytime off peak. Officers propose the curtailment of subsidised journeys, to match the new daytime route, operating between Ashton and Yew Tree only. Page 78 Page Service 346 provides a 60/70 minute frequency between Ashton, Dukinfield and Hyde during the evening and Sundays and the stops on the Knott Lane/Waverley Road estate (between Hyde and Gee Cross) are a maximum distance of 460 metres from Service 330 which provides a 20 minute Sunday daytime and half hourly evening link to Gee Cross, Hyde and Ashton. The curtailment of Service 389 will allow resources to be transferred to Service 396, which will partially replace Services 338 and 332. Surveys show on average 3 passengers per trip travelling between Yew Tree and Hyde, with 0.55 per trip on the section between Hyde and Gee Cross. Members are asked to approve the recommendation to revise the route of Service 389, to match the daytime service, with effect from Sunday 1st September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal.

Dist Service No. and Route Operator

TE 395 For some time officers have been aware of timing issues on this service, and Service 396 which it Ashton – Waterloo – Limehurst Farm interworks with. Stotts Buses The service has been retimed on a number of occasions, however, the issues persist. Officers propose the withdrawal of service 395 (which combines with service 396 to provide a half hourly service between Ashton and Waterloo) so that resources can be transferred to Service 396, which would be diverted to serve Limehurst Farm estate, to improve service reliability and punctuality. Members are asked to approve the recommendation to withdraw Service 395, with effect from Monday 2nd September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal, with resource transferring to Service 396.

TE 396 As noted above officers propose the withdrawal of Service 395, with Service 396 diverted to Ashton – Waterloo – Fitton Hill – cover Limehurst Farm. Failsworth – Newton Heath Additionally, following the withdrawal of the Monday to Saturday daytime Services 38, 39 & 393 Stotts Buses (Monday to Saturday officers propose that the service is diverted away from Turner Lane and Vicarage Road (North of daytime) Ashton, a maximum distance of 400 metres from alternatives) to serve Union Road and Ladbrooke Road providing an option for residents who previously were able to use Service 38, Manchester Community Transport 39 & 393. (Evenings & Sundays) Following a number of complaints, where buses have become stuck it is proposed that the route is revised between Wilshaw Grove and Oldham Road to omit Southway, Yew Tree Close, Beech Mount & Reins Lee Road (a maximum distance of 250 metres from Wilshaw Grove). Page 80 Page It is also proposed that an hourly evening and Sunday service is introduced, running between Ashton and Limehurst Farm which will also provide new evening and Sunday links along Vicarage Road, Wilshaw Grove and Limehurst Farm which don’t currently exist. Members are asked to approve the recommendation to re-route Monday to Saturday daytime journeys and introduce new evening & Sunday journeys, with effect from Sunday 1st September. There are no financial implications arising as a result of this proposal, as resource will be transferred from the withdrawn Service 395.
