1. Foreword

This Transport Outcomes Report (TOR), produced annually by SPT in partnership with each

council in the west of Scotland, outlines the impact of transport improvements in each area to

achieve more sustainable, healthy, inclusive and resilient communities across the SPT area.

SPT continues to focus on achieving the four strategic outcomes from the Regional

Transport Strategy – Attractive, Seamless, Reliable Travel; Improved Connectivity; Access

for All; and Reduced Emissions – which underpin the successful delivery of key social,

economic, environmental and health outcomes at national, regional and local levels.

This TOR outlines SPT’s investments, projects and services for the past year and current

year. The TOR also sets out the role of transport in achieving improved outcomes for local

residents and business in Inverclyde, with the aim of supporting the achievement of the

Inverclyde Alliance’s long term vision of Getting it right for every Child, Citizen and

Community.

SPT will continue to work with Inverclyde Council and our other partners on the regeneration

of town centres in Inverclyde, improving accessibility for rural and vulnerable communities

and the development of the transport options as part of the Glasgow City Region City Deal.

In this respect, SPT will work with Inverclyde Council to promote the regeneration of

Greenock Town Centre, including improvements to the environment around Greenock

Central Station, the accessibility of Cathcart Square and West Blackhall Street and enhanced

connectivity between the waterfront, the town centre the proposed cruise ship facility at

Ocean Terminal. We will work together to deliver material change to the regional bus

market and public transport ticketing, and to strengthen the role of community transport to

help ensure all residents have access to safe, integrated, affordable and stable transport

services.

2. Working in partnership with Inverclyde

The 2017/18 Transport Outcomes Report follows the same structure as last year’s report,

with the principal sections based on the four strategic outcomes and the associated work

streams, which fall from the Regional Transport Strategy Delivery Plan 2014-2017.4 These

are set out in Figure 2.1 on the next page. This year’s report provides an update on the work

streams, whilst the 2014/15 TOR and the Delivery Plan provide additional background

information on the work streams. Services, projects, investments and initiatives that benefit

5


Inverclyde residents are detailed under each work stream within the main body of the report

(sections 6 – 9).

Figure 2.1: RTS Outcomes and SPT - Inverclyde 2017/18 work streams

3. Improving outcomes for Inverclyde residents

SPT is a statutory participant in Community Planning and works in partnership with

Inverclyde Council (IC) and other partners across a range of themes including health,

education, accessibility, social inclusion, equalities and community safety. Our four strategic

outcomes are closely linked to national community planning policy priorities including

independence for older people, improving the lives of young people, economic growth,

stronger communities, more employment and reducing health inequalities.

Transport has an important role in achieving the aims of the Inverclyde Alliance Single

Outcome Agreement (SOA) 2013 – 2017. Figure 3.1 shows the relationship between the

TOR work streams and the SOA local outcomes. More detail on the relationships is found in

the text below.

In support of local outcome 1 (as numbered in figure 3.1 below) - Good access to education,

healthcare and safe leisure opportunities is essential for every child to thrive and a safe,

high-quality walking and cycling network supports young children and their families to be

more active and live healthier lives. Sustainable development and land use patterns

supports families to reduce car usage and increase active travel, and improves road safety.

In support of local outcomes 2 and 3 - High-quality, modern transport infrastructure supports

physical regeneration efforts; an efficient, reliable transport network built upon sustainable

development and land use patterns reduces the cost of transport and congestion for

business and residents and supports environmental targets; and good transport access

improves employment opportunities and supports economic growth.

In support of local outcomes 4 and 5 - Good access to services supports residents in fully

realising the benefits of available healthcare, education and training opportunities.

Promoting active travel and investing in cycling infrastructure supports healthy, active

lifestyles. Sustainable travel choices reduce the negative impact that private cars have on the

environment.

6. Achieving ‘Attractive Seamless Reliable Travel’

6.1 Bus Policy

SPT, working together with Transport Scotland, local bus operators and other members of

the Bus Stakeholder Group, continues to progress its ’10 Point Plan’ of proposed changes to

legislation, regulations and powers to deliver a better offering for bus passengers and a more

active return for the considerable public sector investment in the bus market.

In 2016, SPT invited bus operators, local authorities and other partners to join a Strathclyde

Bus Alliance (SBA), a new partnership with the purpose of changing the long term trends in

bus patronage from a declining trend to year on year growth by 2020. The SBA is promoting

the establishment of powers to implement enhanced SQPs to deliver a more integrated bus

network with more reliable and attractive services to improve conditions for existing

passengers and attract more passengers.

In 2017/18, SPT will continue dialogue with bus operators, local authorities, Transport

Scotland and other partners to advance the SBA in preparation for the forthcoming Transport

Bill expected during the current Scottish Parliament.

6.2 Statutory Quality Partnerships & Bus Infrastructure

SPT service compliance inspectors identified 4 breaches of traffic regulations and made 3

reports to the Traffic Commission across 33 days of local service monitoring in Inverclyde

during 2016/17. These include instances of engine idling and illegal parking. Inspectors will

continue to undertake local monitoring throughout 2017/18. SPT bus station staff managed

25,000 departures at Buchanan Bus Station and 200,000 departures at Greenock Bus

Station for bus services operating within Inverclyde during 2016/17.

In 2016/17, SPT maintained 627 bus stops and 175 shelters in Inverclyde under agency

agreement and maintained 805 SPT-owned pole-mounted information cases in Inverclyde.

SPT delivered 8 new bus stops, 6 bus stop pole upgrades and 59 bus stop graphics

upgrades with £7,000 in SPT capital funds in 2016/17.

In 2016/17, IC delivered new bus stop build outs in Gourock and Greenock, new passenger

shelters in Gourock and extended bus bay at Eldon Park. SPT provided £48,000 in capital

funding for these projects.

In 2017/18, IC will seek to deliver further improvements to bus stops and shelters in support

of the Inverclyde Statutory Quality Partnership, complete works in Branchton to improve the


10

operation of low floor vehicles and complete feasibility and design for new bus layby and

shelters at Lunderston Bay. SPT is providing up to £114,000 in capital funding for these

projects this year.

6.3 Smart and Integrated Ticketing

SPT continues to promote ZoneCard integrated ticketing products and provides

administrative and secretarial support to the ZoneCard Forum. Inverclyde residents bought

an estimated 7,000 ZoneCards and made around 350,000 trips using a ZoneCard in 2016/17

– saving Inverclyde residents an estimated £230,000. SPT also improved access to

integrated ticketing by launching an improved online sales portal for ZoneCard ticket

renewals and multi-modal Daytripper ticket sales in 2016/17.

SPT continues to work towards the vision of one card multi-modal, multi-operator travel

across the region. In 2016/17, interoperable smartcard ticketing was delivered across

ScotRail and Subway services. SPT also launched online registration and ticket sales for

Subway smartcard passengers. Further, Nevis Technologies, SPT’s joint venture with

Rambus, provided back office systems for McGill’s Buses smartcard including online

registration and ticket sales.

Glasgow station platforms. SPT is contributing up to £30,000 towards this project in

2017/18. SPT also will continue to work with Inverclyde Council to develop the case for rail

enhancements across the area including possible service improvements as part of wider

network improvements to be delivered by rail partners.

SPT, through the West of Scotland Rail Forum, West of Scotland Transport Integration

Forum and other engagement activities, will continue to co-ordinate and lead on regional

input to the ScotRail franchise including service and timetable changes, fares and ticketing;

investment in rail infrastructure; network planning; and new station development. SPT will

explore options with the Council to improve the environment and connectivity of Greenock

Central Station.

7.2 Integrated Transport and Land Use Planning

In 2016/17, SPT provided input to the Main Issues Report for the emerging second Local

Development Plan for Inverclyde. SPT will continue to work with all relevant organisations

to reinforce the importance of the integration of transport and land use planning and the

promotion of sustainable transport solutions for future development to support the delivery of

successful places. SPT will also continue to work will all partners in the assessment of the

transport impacts of Glasgow City Region City Deal projects through participation in the

Transport Group. A particular focus will be the master planning of Inverkip Power Station site

and connectivity between Ocean Terminal and the town centres.

7.3 Roads and Freight In 2016/17, Inverclyde Council completed a feasibility study for the provision of a lorry and

trailer parking facility in Inverclyde. The study looked at need and demand for a facility, the

required specification and capacity and a range of potential sites. SPT contributed £16,000

in funding for this study. In 2017/18, IC will seek to complete final design of the facility with

£30,000 in capital funding from SPT, with construction to follow in future years dependent

upon funding.

In 2016/17, SPT, with partners and industry stakeholders, delivered a regional freight

strategy, building on work undertaken previously for Ayrshire. The strategy identifies key

issues and opportunities and sets objectives for improved air quality, increased safety,

intermodal freight movements, enhanced quality of life, economic competitiveness and

improved communication between public and private sector stakeholders. The freight

strategy findings will feed into the development of the Regional Transport Strategy.

In 2016/17, Inverclyde Council completed feasibility study of options to improve access

through Lilybank Road / Glen Avenue including investigating options to widen the existing

road bridge, installation of traffic signal controls and other options. SPT contributed £18,000

in capital funding towards this project in 2016/17. In 2017/18, IC will seek to complete design

and consultation for the preferred option with £40,000 in capital funding from SPT.

In 2017/18, IC and Riverside Inverclyde will seek to deliver route improvements associated

with the regeneration of the Baker’s Brae area in Greenock. A revised alignment of Baker’s

Street and Drumfrochar Road will improve traffic flows and support redevelopment of the

Kelburn Business Park and housing developments on Drumfrochar Road. SPT is contributing

up to £300,000 towards this project this year, with the majority of funding provided by

Inverclyde Council and Riverside Inverclyde.

In 2017/18, IC will seek to examine feasibility and develop outline proposals to reconfigure

the road geometry and operation of the Junction of Gibshill Road / Weir Street, with the

objective of improving access for large vehicles include buses. SPT is providing £15,000 in

funding for this project this year, with construction to follow in later years dependent upon

funding.

In 2017/18 IC will explore streetscape and improved accessibility for West Blackhall Street

and Cathcart Square as a priority regeneration project in partnership with SPT.
