routeone Awards 2022 judging completed

Judging for the 2022 routeone Awards is complete and the winners of the coach and bus industry’s premier recognition showcase have been decided ahead of its return to the Hilton Birmingham Metropole on the evening of Wednesday 2 November after a three-year hiatus.

Finalisation of the individuals and businesses that will be named as the best in their sector came after a gathering of the seven-strong judging panel in Birmingham earlier in September. It follows the reveal of the shortlisted finalists in August.

In addition to established panel members Joan Aitken OBE, Richard Delahoy, Steve Dewhurst, Kevin Middleton and Peter Nash, judging in the routeone Awards for the first time in 2022 have been former Nottingham City Transport Managing Director Mark Fowles OBE and Norman Thomas, previously Volvo Bus Product Engineering Manager.

The gathering of judges saw numerous finalists in the people categories attend for interview, with winners in all 16 categories – including the prestigious Special Award – agreed upon after extensive discussion. New for 2022 are the Above and Beyond and Outstanding Customer Experience categories, both of which drew a strong field of debut entries.

Finishing touches are now being put to proceedings ahead of the presentation evening in six weeks’ time. It will sit alongside trade show Euro Bus Expo, which is to be held at the adjacent NEC Birmingham on 1-3 November as the industry shapes up for three superb days of networking, engagement and socialising.

Ticket sales for the routeone Awards are open. Organiser Diversified Communications has reported that interest has been strong, with well in excess of 700 places already accounted for.

The number of remaining tickets continues to reduce daily ahead of an expected sell-out attendance as the industry signals its desire to reconnect and recognise excellence within its ranks.

Tickets are priced at £173 plus VAT and include a three-course meal, table wine and entertainment. The presentation evening will be jointly hosted by routeone Editor Tim Deakin and a well-known celebrity, with previous events having welcomed names including Rory Bremner, Hugh Dennis, Alistair McGowan, Tim Vine and John Culshaw.

andy burnham tfgm £15.6 billion (1) The funding announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves today (4 June) has been allocated to several combined mayoral authorities to use on rail, tram, road and bus infrastructure. Transport for Greater Manchester revealed today that part of the £2.5 billion it will receive will go towards making the Bee Network fully battery-electric by 2030. An as-yet undecided portion of that will support a planned investment in 1,000 new zero-emission buses over that period, the mayoral authority said. That is part of plans to build the UK's "first fully integrated, zero-emission public transport system", with trams and trains also set to benefit. Liverpool City Region's already announced BRT system is among the projects to which its £1.6 billion will be allocated. Under those plans - due for realisation by 2028 - a high-speed network will be served by articulated buses which are modelled on the 'Glider' in Belfast. It is due to link Liverpool city centre with John Lennon Airport, and Liverpool FC and Everton FC's respective stadia along three routes. Although the model of bus has not been confirmed, a Van Hool Exqui.City on loan from Belfast was last year used as a demonstrator. That 18m vehicle can accommodate around 30% more passengers than a typical bus and has three sets of double doors. The funding will also go towards buses elsewhere in the city as the region heads towards franchising services by 2027. Liverpool Mayor Steve Rotheram with a 'Glider' which was on loan from Belfast last year - an example of the sort of bus which could serve the new BRT Bus services in the East Midlands region will be boosted by the funding, thanks to the £2 billion handed to it today by the government. Some of that allocation will be used for a rapid transit network on the Trent Arc between Nottingham and Derby. Between the two cities, the Freeport, Infinity Park Investment Zone and Ratcliffe-on-Soar will also benefit from the improved bus services. South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority's newly announced commitment towards bus franchising has been boosted by £350 million in funding as part of that region's allocation. The funding for West Yorkshire will help build new bus stations in Bradford and Wakefield. Likewise, the Tees Valley Mayoral Authority will put its sum towards a new £15 million bus station in Middlesbrough. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says: "Today marks a watershed moment on our journey to improving transport across the North and Midlands – opening up access to jobs, growing the economy and driving up quality of life as we deliver our Plan for Change. "For too long, people in the North and Midlands have been locked out of the investment they deserve. With £15.6bn of government investment, we’re giving local leaders the means to drive cities, towns and communities forward, investing in Britain’s renewal so you and your family are better off."
