Thanet Bus Changes Public Consultation

22 November to 19 December 2018

1. Introduction

Bus services in Kent fall into two categories:

• Commercially (profit-making) operated services.

• Subsidised (KCC funded) services.

Since bus privatisation in 1985, operators in Kent run routes

on a commercial basis, where there are enough passengers

to fund the service. Around 97% of journeys in Kent run in

this way – with over 50 operators covering 600 services –

without any funding from Kent County Council (KCC). That

means that we have no say over routes, timetables or fares.

But not all of Kent’s bus services are run on a purely

commercial basis. For the last 30 years, KCC has funded

some routes which, while not commercially viable, have been

considered important to the needs of the communities and

passengers they serve.

We have worked hard to protect this funding, but as central

government funding has continued to reduce, we have had to

make savings, changing the way we work and spending less.

Over the summer of 2018, we held a Big Conversation1

consultation with communities and transport providers to

consider how we provide rural transport in the future. This has

resulted in a series of pilot schemes that might help shape

1 More information is available from www.kent.gov.uk/bigconversation

future provision. In the meantime, we need to make some

savings.

We have engaged with bus operators asking them to consider

any opportunities where they can continue to provide KCC

funded bus services without council subsidy.

Operators have presented KCC with proposals that will enable

us to reduce spend, whilst being able to protect school

services and ensure those communities currently served still

have access to transport.

Two proposals; from Stagecoach (services 42/42A, 56 and

39/39A) in Thanet and from Go-coach (services 404 and 405)

in Sevenoaks are being considered. These would save KCC

approximately £410k per year (£360k from Thanet proposals

and £50k from Sevenoaks proposals). This document

focuses on proposals for Thanet from Stagecoach.

We understand that any changes to bus services could have

an impact on users. The pages that follow explain the

proposals.

No decisions have been made. The results of this consultation

and our Equality Impact Assessment will be used to help us

decide whether to progress with these changes.

The document contains some terms that you may be

unfamiliar with, therefore a glossary has been provided to give

further explanation.

2. Background

Supporting non-commercial routes

As a Local Transport Authority, KCC has a duty to

consider funding bus services that are not provided

commercially. These are services which:

• Are considered important to the communities and

passengers they serve.

• Provide transport links to key services that could

not otherwise be accessed.

Authorities are not required to provide these services and

can choose which services to support.

KCC uses set criteria to guide our decision making and

ranks services based on cost, usage, journey purpose and

the availability of other forms of transport (such as the rail

network).

Kent County Council’s support for public transport

KCC has a long tradition of supporting public transport in

Kent and invests around £36m of public money into the

County’s bus network each year. The table on page 4

summarises how KCC does this.

We also work closely with bus operators through our

Quality Bus Partnerships, helping them to improve

services.

These activities have helped sustain a comprehensive

network of buses in Kent on which over 50 million journeys

are made each year. Of these, around 4 million journeys

are made on services paid for by KCC.

In other parts of the UK, many authorities have stopped

their funding for bus services altogether but despite

significant financial pressures, our commitment to bus

travel has remained.

At a glance

2017/18

Number of bus journeys in Kent: over 50 million

Number of bus journeys made on KCC funded routes: 3.7m

% of bus journeys funded by KCC: approximately 2.3%

Number of KCC funded contracts: 116

KCC funding: £5.7m

How do we subsidise Kent’s bus network?

Directly

Route subsidies - £6.4m

Buying season tickets for

school children - £1.8m

Indirectly

English National Concessionary Travel Scheme - £16.5m

Young Person’s Travel Pass - £8m

Kent 16+ Travel Card - £1m

Bus Passes for entitled (to free transport to school) children - £1.7m

Capital Investment (vehicles, bus stops etc.) - £0.7m

3. Our proposals

We have engaged with all bus operators of KCC subsidised

services to ask them for suggestions of savings where:

• Similar replacement services might carry on unchanged or at

slightly reduced levels of service.

• Where other services already run or could be provided as

alternatives to funded services.

• There is no impact on the ability of children to get to and

from school.

This approach differs from a review of services against KCC’s set

criteria, which would have resulted in cancelling the most expensive

contracts based on cost, regardless of the impact.

These proposals seek to minimise impact by making changes

where there is alternative bus provision available through

commercial services.

A number of suggestions were made by bus operators for ways to

deliver public transport in the future. These were taken forward as

part of the Big Conversation consultation.

The Equality Impact Assessment (EqIA) considers the potential

impacts for passengers and is available to view online at

kent.gov.uk/thanetbusconsultation or upon request.

Summary of services changes in Thanet

Stagecoach has agreed to amend its current commercial network in the area to provide similar journey opportunities to the services

identified below. Although they may operate less frequently, at different times and in some instances require passengers to walk to mainline

bus routes.

Route maps and timetables showing proposed changes are available in the Appendices from page 10.

Service No. Operator Route Summary of proposed changes Estimated saving

39/39A Stagecoach

Broadstairs – Westwood Cross

– Margate

Monday to Saturdays (day time

and peak)

Withdrawal of existing service 39/39A. There

are alternative commercial services along most

sections of route including the Stagecoach

be introduced serving Sherwood Gardens and

Dumpton.

£70,551

42/42A Stagecoach

Monkton – Minster – Ramsgate

– Westwood Cross – Margate

Monday to Saturday

Withdrawal of existing service 42/42A. Service

9 would be diverted via Monkton and Minster

providing hourly services to Ramsgate and

Broadstairs as well as services to Canterbury in

the opposite direction. Stagecoach service 11

will continue to provide a service from Monkton

and Minister to Westwood Cross.

Cliffsend would have access to service 34 on

the Sandwich Road and service 34 would also

serve the Nethercourt Estate.

£102,186

56 Stagecoach

St. Peters- Ramsgate -

Dumpton

Monday to Saturdays (off peak)

Withdrawal of existing service 56. Minor

adjustments to the commercial network and

other subsidised services to mitigate. In

addition, a new service 37 would replace most

of the route from Broadstairs via St Peters,

Westwood Cross and Queen Elizabeth The

Queen Mother Hospital (QEQM) to Margate.

£139,767

Summary of impact if proposed changes went ahead

Service 39 • Nixon Avenue will no longer be served. Passengers can access LOOP services on Margate Road or service 34 on Allenby

Road. In most instances this would mean no more than a 5-minute walk.

• Newington Road (between Margate Road and Bush Avenue) will no longer be served. Passengers can access service 34 in

Bush Avenue/Stirling Way or the LOOP on Margate Road. In most instances this would mean no more than a 5-minute walk.

• Northwood Road (between The Silvers and A256) will no longer be served. Passengers can access service 9 from The

Silvers or service 34 on A256. In most instances this would mean no more than a 2-minute walk.

• Dumpton Sherwood Gardens direct links to Westwood Cross are lost however LOOP services are available along Ramsgate

Road and there are connections service 48 connects to the LOOP on Ramsgate Road and at Ramsgate Station.

• 39A school journey will not be provided. Students will be required to make use of alternative service 933

Service 42 • Cliffsend will no longer receive a direct service through the centre of the village. Service 9 can be accessed on Canterbury

Road West (10-minute walk) and service 43 on Sandwich Road (5-minute walk).

• 42A school journey will no longer operate and students will be required to make use of services 38A, 43, 942, 943.

Service 56 • East Kent Retail Park will no longer be served directly but can be accessed from Westwood Cross Bus Hub. This would

mean no more than a 5-10 minutes’ walk.

• College Road between the College Road roundabout and Milmead Road will not be served. Passengers can access service

34 and new service 37 on the A255 St Peters Road or service 32 on Milmead Road. This would mean no more than a 5

minutes’ walk.

• Devonshire Gardens will no longer be served. Passengers can access service 8 and LOOP on Northdown Road or revised

service 38 on Eastern Esplanade. This would mean no more than a 5 minutes’ walk.

5. Glossary of terms

Council Members: KCC’s elected politicians, in this instance

represented through those members forming part of relevant

Cabinet Committees.

Criteria for bus service support: the KCC Member

approved way of ranking existing and new bus services to

identify if they will or won’t be paid for by KCC. The criteria

take account of value for money and journey purpose.

Deregulated: privatised and outside of the control of KCC. In

this context, bus operators run the majority of routes without

needing any permission from the Council who have no

contractual relationship or control over them. Bus operators

and the services that they run are managed by the

Department for Transport who grant licenses to operators

themselves and the routes that they chose to run.

English National Concessionary Travel Scheme: the older

person’s bus pass. KCC has to pay operators for each

journey made by the pass holder.

Equality Impact Assessment (EqIA): the assessments

carried out by Council officers to understand the impact of

proposed changes on existing bus users based on their

protected characteristics. These are: age, disability, gender,

gender identity, race, religion or belief, sexual orientation,

pregnancy and maternity, marriage and civil partnership and

carers’ responsibilities.

Local Transport Authority: the local government

organisation with responsibility for local transport (roads,

drainage, public transport etc.) matters. In this instance, this

means Kent County Council.

Public Bus Service: a conventional public bus service which

is available to any passenger wishing to pay a fare or carrying

a valid pass. This does not include ‘Hired’ services used

specifically to carry particular groups, such as, school

coaches and minibuses.

Quality Bus Partnership: a voluntary arrangement between

KCC, the local District Council and bus operators. The

partners work in collaboration with each other to improve bus

services in the area.

Statutory Obligation: something that the Council has to do or

provide because the Government regulations say that all

Councils must do.

Subsidy: payments made by the Council to bus operators to

help them operate services that are not commercially viable

because of low passenger usage but that the Council wants to

see operated because they are important for bus passengers.

Young Person’s Travel Pass: KCC’s scheme that provides

reduced cost bus travel for secondary aged school children.

KCC has to pay operators for each journey made by pass

holders.
