Mustn't have been out long, not had a chance to look through yet just got the email from passenger focus. Apparently the northern and the TPE ones will be released next month.The aim of this document is to inform stakeholders of the planned approach for securing Great Western franchised services when the current direct award franchise ends in September 2015, and seek their views on the franchise specification with a focus on the changes planned during the 5 year period from September 2015, and in particular to:
- Provide stakeholders with background information about the current services on the Great Western Railway;
- Provide information about the impact of major projects on the franchise;
- Advise stakeholders of the objectives and expectations for the franchise;
- Inform stakeholders of the options being considered for the franchise;
- Seek the views and input of stakeholders; and
- Give potential promoters of incremental schemes the opportunity for meaningful engagement in the process, including the opportunity to comment on these proposals and formally notify the department of any specific increments or decrements they may wish to purchase...
