Speaker: Roger French OBE DL MA FCILT

Everybody wants to see public transport better “integrated” but what is the current state of play between the two biggest modes of travel - bus and train - and how much more can realistically be achieved? Roger French will set out examples of best practice in joint ticketing as well as timetable coordination from across Britain to see what lessons can be learnt and where other schemes could be introduced to encourage more passengers.

Competencies:

• PAS1.2 Modes, Modal Choice and Transport Integration

When: 4 March 2025, 18:00 - 19:00
Where: Zoom Meeting
Speaker: Daniel Wright, Freelance Transport Writer

It's the large items that usually come to mind when we think of transport heritage, but the likes of Flying Scotsman and the Forth Bridge enjoy plenty of protection. Not so the smaller things such as signs, clocks and weighing machines that give character to railway journeys but can be at risk of removal at the whim of a management set on modernisation. Taking examples from throughout Britain, transport writer and campaigner Daniel Wright makes a plea to save these items whose familiarity he believes attract people to train travel and for which the first need may be to compile a list of what's there. Daniel is a transport planner whose first job after graduating from Aston University was at the newly-created Institute of Logistics and Transport in London, where he worked during 1999 as a Policies Assistant.

Where: Zoom Meeting
Speaker: Ed Wills FCILT, Managing Director, Brighton & Hove Buses

Organised horse bus routes first began running in Brighton and Hove around the middle of the 19^th Century, particularly once the London railway arrived in 1841. It was in 1935 that Tilling formed a new separate company the Brighton, Hove & District Omnibus Company Ltd (BH&D) as an autonomous subsidiary of the parent group.  Buses were branded as Brighton, Hove & District and continued to run alongside the Corporation’s trams and the motor buses run by Southdown.

Ed will provide an update on the company’s plans for improving services for customers and the continued innovation that has seen the city achieve the highest bus usage outside of London in the UK. He will provide an update on the company’s plans and how it requires a whole combination of different activities to come together to ensure customers continue to receive the best possible experience.
