STRATEGIC CASE Scheme Name Plymouth Station: Forecourt Interchange (PR1) Date 15/02/2021
Transforming Cities Fund Overview Our vision is to provide a world class sustainable transport system, helping Plymouth become one of Europe’s most vibrant waterfront cities. The investment in the public transport and sustainable transport networks will transform connectivity by sustainable travel modes, providing new and improved travel choices, and improving accessibility to the City’s three regionally significant, strategic growth areas (City Centre and the Waterfront, Derriford and the Northern Corridor and Eastern Corridor). The proposals focus on two key commuter corridors, one oriented north-south and the other east-west aligned to key future growth areas within the city and connecting these to the City Centre and Waterfront Growth Area and other key employment locations (Figure One). This strategy will provide new travel opportunities, reduce journey times by public transport and connect areas of deprivation with areas of employment.
Figure 1: Productive Plymouth, Proposed Interventions and Large Employment Site Plymouth’s overarching Vision set out in the Plymouth Plan is to be “one of Europe’s most vibrant waterfront cities where an outstanding quality of life is enjoyed by everyone”. The Plymouth and South West Devon Joint Local Plan (JLP), the statutory development plan for Plymouth, South Hams and West Devon, identifies strategic objectives setting out how this vision can be achieved. These include delivering sustainable growth by delivering 26,700 dwellings (net) in the Plan Area during the plan period 2014 to 2034, and the creation of an additional 20,400 jobs.

To help achieve this sustainably the Joint Local Plan identifies the need to deliver growth in three key, growth areas: Plymouth’s City Centre and Waterfront; Derriford and Northern Corridor; and Eastern Corridor. Focusing growth in these areas will realise their potential as regionally significant growth hubs. As major trip attractors and generators, the JLP identifies the importance of providing sustainable access to the growth areas, from communities in the City’s travel to work area, which in turn have their own plans for growth East and West of Plymouth.
Programme Context The TCF programme is needed to transform the city’s sustainable transport network. The strategy underpinning the programme focuses on three main strategic objectives. These are: Transformational Infrastructure – delivering a step-change in our sustainable transport offer through improved door-to-door connectivity, providing quality infrastructure that delivers a viable alternative to the private car, and clear information to keep the traveller informed: Improving the connectivity, quality and clarity of Plymouth’s sustainable Innovative Technology – encouraging the use of new and innovative technology and new mobility systems to provide cleaner transport, enhanced accessibility to active travel modes and to manage transport demand enabling Plymouth to become a ‘Smart City ’
Changing Behaviour – transport measures and effectively managing travel demand through the application of policies that discourage commuting by single occupancy car alongside targeted fiscal based management strategies in major employment locations.

The Productive Plymouth proposals concentrate on improving connectivity by sustainable transport. The transformative investment programme forms part of a wider strategy to increase productivity and address the city’s transport needs.
Scheme Summary Plymouth City Council (PCC), Network Rail (NR), Great Western Railway (GWR) and the University of Plymouth (UoP) have prepared and agreed the masterplan for the redevelopment of Plymouth Station.
To remove vehicle movements through the station forecourt, shown as Masterplan PR1 on the appended Masterplan, the current one-way access into the station (PR3) will be upgraded to two-way access to the new MSCP (1A). Short stay pickup and drop off facilities are being integrated into the ground floor of a new Multi-Storey Car Park. This car park is the subject of a separate scheme pro-forma and was currently located to the west of the station.
The public realm works within Masterplan PR3 and part of PR5 will integrate with all existing footpaths and primary cycle routes located in this area. Masterplan PR1 will become a pedestrian priority area and linking to phase one of the concourse improvements (TCF T1) and phase 2 (TCF T2). PR2 will provide a new access to the station entrance, linking the city centre improvements to the station.
Masterplan PR3/PR5 will be delivered as part of the new MSCP access works and will be undertaken contemporaneously with the MSCP construction programme.
The majority of Masterplan PR1 public realm works, with the exception of public realm improvements around the curtilage of the Station concourse fore court cannot be undertaken until the new MSCP is operational and the existing MSCP has been demolished. PCC will be funding the majority of the PR1 public realm works as they will fall out of the back end of the TCF 2023 backstop but remain an integral part of the masterplan public realm improvement strategy. TCF funding will be used to pedestrianise PR1 with PCC local match funding the material finish.
In addition, and linked to the release of the existing MSCP development sites (Masterplan 3 & 2A1/2A2) Masterplan PR2 will be then be delivered.
Summary of Expected Outcomes
• Remove general vehicle movements through station forecourt • Upgrade one-way access to two-way • Integrating pick up and drop off facilities into ground floor of multistory car park • Station forecourt to become a pedestrian priority area. • A new access to the station • Release existing car park sites for redevelopment
Expected Outcome Has it been met? How has it been met?
Supports the city economy & facilitate economic development.
Yes The overall station redevelopment project is crucial to Plymouth’s economic future. The drop off and forecourt improvements are a visual and high profile element of the scheme that will highlight the work done and raise the profile of the city’s vital rail links.
Enable reduction of carbon emissions.
Yes Transport represents around 28% of carbon emissions1, investment in sustainable transport to reduce overall car trips through a substantial transfer from private car is essential if we are to meet the Council’s pledge to make Plymouth carbon neutral by 2030. Through enhancements and development around Plymouth’s main station modal shift will be encourage away from the private car and onto the train.

This scheme improves sustainable access to and from the station, further encouraging sustainable transport options and development in the city of Plymouth.
Delivers wider social and economic benefits.
Yes The overall station redevelopment, and improved drop off facilities, integration with cycle routes and forecourt are anticipated to benefit non-use values, access to services and journey quality.
Support housing delivery. Yes The proposal supports the delivery of housing in Plymouth’s travel to work area by improving sustainable transport access and egress, coupled with the creation of employment opportunities in and around Plymouth station.
Improves air quality. Yes The Government’s 2019 Clean Air Strategy specifically references the role the Transforming Cities Fund has to play in tackling emissions from transport through enabling modal shift to sustainable modes (Section 5.2). The strategy states road transport is responsible for 80% of emissions at the roadside. This scheme will improve air quality through enabling modal shift from the private car. Not only will this reduction emissions from vehicles (both NOx and PM2.5) it will also reduce the per passenger emission from local buses and trains because of the increased patronage.
Aligns with the Aligns with the Future of Mobility Grand Challenge.

Consultation and Public Engagement
In July 2019 Plymouth’s rail commuters got the big picture of the city’s exciting plans to create a better welcome for rail passengers.
The masterplan gives a bird’s eye view of what buildings could be going up, what’s coming down and how this vital entrance to Plymouth could look in the future.
Key partners in the city are working together to create a whole new feel to this important gateway for people arriving into the city by rail – from Cornwall as well as Devon and beyond.
The University of Plymouth recently showcased by way of a public consultation, its exciting ambition to transform the tower above the station into Intercity Place. This will house inter-professional clinical skills and nursing/midwifery facilities as well as additional educational services to support the future health workforce., Enabling works and decontamination works are ongoing and Intercity Place will signal the first major work to rejuvenate the station and its surrounds as the anchor investor.
The masterplan is the guiding document for decisions being taken around this location. Plans include demolishing the redundant rail incident safety centre (RISC building) on the east side of the station to enable a new multi-storey car park to be built.
The existing car park opposite the entrance is also earmarked for demolition and a new hotel and second university building created in its place. The masterplan proposes a new car park, almost doubling the capacity to 469 spaces, for the site of the RISC building.
Station staff accommodation will be modernised and significant new public space created including a direct pedestrian link to North Cross and the city centre, part funded through the Transforming Cities Fund programme.

The entire scheme is expected to cost in the region of £80 million of which the City Council has allocated £11.00m from its Capital Programme. Through the One Public Estate, the Cabinet Office has provided £700,000 of revenue funding for feasibility and planning work; £5.00m of Growth Deal 3 Funding and £4.17m of GBF Funding
The City Council has been out to public consultation on the Masterplan and Public Realm Delivery Plan and have adopted it as a Planning Statement for use in preparing and determining future planning applications between 2021 – 20242.
Scheme Options PCC have carried out a process of identifying potential Tranche 2 schemes and interventions that could form part of the TCF package, and carrying out prioritisation of these schemes prior to commencing more detailed scheme development and appraisal work.
SCHEME PACKAGE DEVELOPMENT A sifting process was created to prioritise the development of a programme of schemes for the draft SOBC submission. This consisted of 3 stages as described:
Stage 1 – Eligibility Gateway Assessment
An initial list of potential schemes was developed through consultation with teams within PCC and key stakeholders. Scheme promoters were invited to submit initial scheme pro-forma’s which detailed their scheme, key objectives and outputs. Submitted schemes were reviewed against a set pass/fail criteria to assess whether these schemes would be eligible for the TCF programme. In total 179 schemes were submitted for consideration.
The station forecourt passed the eligibility gateway assessment
Stage 2 – Prioritisation Against TCF Objectives

Successful schemes were then assessed and scored against a range of criteria that aligned to the objectives of the TCF fund. These criteria were weighted against the TCF priorities with: access to employment; encouraging modal shift; reductions in carbon and representing value-for-money having the highest weightings. A threshold was applied so that those schemes that scored highest were taken forward for development. In total 51 schemes were developed to the point of submission.
The station forecourt scored well against access to employment, encouraging model shift, reducing carbon and represents good value for money.
Stage 3 – Forming a TCF Programme
These individual schemes were further progressed so that we could understand: levels of deliverability risk; total scheme costs; levels of local contribution; value-for-money and scheme delivery. This enabled officers to create a balanced blend of projects for delivery through to 2023. The following scenarios have been presented as part of the draft submission:
FUNDING SCENARIOS ‘Low’: A core set of schemes that align closely with TCF principles, are relatively low risk and provide a range of multi modal improvements across the network. The initial ask of DfT for the low cost scenario is: £103.47m.
The station forecourt project has been developed over a number of years, and with it being ready for tender in 2022 demonstrates the deliverability of the scheme well. Additionally, the scheme has a good level of local contribution and demonstrates excellent value for money.
‘Medium’: This represents a more ambitious but deliverable set of TCF schemes, there are more deliverability risks that will need to be managed but again these will provide for a range of multi modal improvements across the network. The initial ask of DfT for the medium cost scenario is: £155.53m.
‘High’: The high cost scenario contains all 51 schemes that passed the Stage 2 prioritisation.
A local contribution will be needed for final submission but dependent upon final schemes we anticipate that this will be sourced from the existing capital programme and from developer contributions (which may need underwriting until such time developer contributions are paid). (https://www.plymouth.gov.uk/sites/default/files/TransformingCitiesFundTranche2AssuranceFramework.pdf) The station forecourt project provides a healthy local contribution of £2.5m towards the overall estimated costs of £4m. This funding is secured with Plymouth’s capital programme.

Summary of Appraisal Approach
Economy
The economic appraisal of this scheme has been undertaken in line with TAG unit A5.1 using the DfT Active Mode Appraisal Toolkit (AMAT), updated following submission utilizing the most up to date version of Webtag. The AMAT is able to calculate physical activity benefits, absenteeism benefits, journey quality benefits, environmental impacts, indirect tax impacts and decongestion benefits as a result of the implementation of the walking and cycling schemes.
The AMAT spreadsheet requires the input of Baseline and Forecast walking/cycling trips and additional scheme parameters. The inputs required are set out below.
• Scheme opening year and last year of funding. • Type of area in which the scheme is located. • Current walking and cycling infrastructure. • Proposed new infrastructure. • Number of walking and cycling journeys with and without the scheme. • Scheme costs including maintenance costs.
Baseline pedestrian and cycle demand was determined from NMU surveys carried out in October 2019.
In addition, journey time savings were calculated and included in the appraisal. The improvements to the entrance to the station would provide a more direct route for pedestrians and cyclists to the Station from North Cross. Journey time savings were calculated based on the improved route providing a shorter distance (measured as approximately 15metres) – using average cycle and walk speeds of 15kph and 5kph respectively, this equates to a journey times saving of 3.7 seconds for cyclists and 11.1 seconds for pedestrians.
All assumptions made regarding appraisal inputs have been detailed in the accompanying Walking and Cycling Appraisal Technical Note submitted as part of the SOBC
Social Impacts
A social impacts appraisal has been carried out – the results are summarised in the table below:
Social Impacts
Physical Activity Encourages walking and cycling trips to station.
Moderate Beneficial
Journey Quality

Affordability Neutral
Severance Localised severance reduction around station. Slight Beneficial
Options and Non-Use Values No impacts anticipated. Neutral
Environmental Impacts
An environmental impact appraisal of the scheme has been carried out – the outputs from this are summarised below. Further details on the environmental appraisal of the scheme have been included in the Environmental Appraisal Report submitted as part of the SOBC.
The environmental appraisal concludes that:
• Noise – the scheme will not adversely affect Noise Important Areas; • Air Quality – the scheme will not adversely affect the Plymouth AQMA; • Landscape – the scheme will not affect any Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) but may affect the character of
nearby conservation areas; this will require further consideration as the design progresses; • Historic Environment – the scheme is not expected to adversely affect any World Heritage Sites or Registered Parks and
Gardens, but may adversely affect Listed Buildings. This will require further consideration as the design progresses. • Biodiversity – no adverse effects are anticipated. • Water Environment – no adverse effects are anticipated.

COMMERCIAL CASE Procurement Route or Options
The procurement of the physical works has yet to be determined, although the current thinking is around a design and build option which would seem to be best suited to the project.
Design and Build Contract A Design and Build (D&B) contract would involve going to tender based on the outline scheme design. A D&B contract would allow a ‘sense check’ of the scheme costs from the market at an early stage, and would allow contractors to input into the scheme design, and potentially in the buildability and value engineering, at an early stage. However, contractors would be likely to cost risks involved in the design not being at a more detailed stage and hence a higher price might be received. The advantages and disadvantages of a D&B contract are as follows:

MANAGEMENT CASE Key Deliverability Risks
Please see attached Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) for full breakdown of design, governance, interface and construction risks. Listed below are the top 5 risks from this analysis:
Monitoring and Evaluation
Project Managers of all schemes will be required to monitor the benefits of schemes post construction, and to evaluate performance against scheme objectives and outputs.
A Monitoring and Evaluation Plan for each scheme will be produced and included as part of the Final Business Case submission; this plan will set out the monitoring requirements in terms of pre and post construction data collection, the methodologies for doing this and how data will be analysed to evaluate the impacts of the scheme. Evaluation indicators will be set out with consideration of guidance in the DfT guidance document ‘Monitoring and Evaluation Framework for Local Authority Major Schemes’ (September 2012). It should be noted that this guidance is intended for major schemes, but will be considered for all schemes within the TCF programme. The Senior Responsible Officer will be responsible for ensuring that the required data collection and surveys are carried out.
A Benefits Realisation Plan and an Evaluation Plan is being developed to a timetable agreed with the Department, the dates provided are indicative based upon submission and may be subject to change. These reports will be made available to the Department and, where possible, published on Plymouth City Councils website.
Regular progress reports will be provided to the Department (frequency, format and content to be agreed) to enable the monitoring of progress and performance. It is likely that this will track progress against key milestones for the entire programme and individual schemes (e.g. approval decisions, start of construction, completion etc), spending data (e.g. forecast spend vs actual), risk summary and a brief narrative commentary on progress and issues.
Assurance Framework
Programme Assurance is provided through adherence to the Project Assurance Framework, which can be downloaded below. As part of the Transforming Cities Fund award this has been approved by DfT.
Scheme Approvals and Delivery
The Assurance Framework above sets out the process for scheme approval through the Board, and the requirements for monitoring and evaluation.
PLYMOUTH TRANSFORMING CITIES FUND

During the delivery phase of the scheme, progress will be reported monthly on each scheme to the Project Board by the Project Manager. If there are issues during the delivery phase that may affect the delivery programme or budget, a progress report will be escalated the Programme Board, which may seek approval for amendments to the scheme delivery programme or budget. The SRO for the TCF programme will sit on both the Project Board and Programme Board, and will therefore have full oversight of delivery of all schemes within the TCF programme. Key Milestones
