Book Synopsis High Speed 2 by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book High Speed 2 written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-05-16 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this early examination of progress by the Department for Transport in planning for the High Speed 2 rail network, the National Audit Office expresses reservations about the Department's business case. The Department has poorly articulated the strategic need for a transformation in rail capacity and how High Speed 2 will help generate regional economic growth. The Department's methodology for appraising the project puts a high emphasis on journey-time savings, but the relationship between these savings and the strategic reasons for doing the project, such as rebalancing regional economies, is unclear. The benefit-cost ratio calculated for phase one has twice contained errors and the Department has been slow to carry out its own assurance of the underlying analysis. The most recent benefit-cost ratio (published in August 2012) is 1.4 to 1 but is likely to change as the ratio is sensitive to changes in data underpinning assumptions, such as GDP growth forecasts. It does not, however, reflect the Department's current assumption on the relationship between passenger numbers and GDP growth. The Department should also carry out research into how business travellers use their time on trains. HS2 Limited has also not yet analysed the effect on passenger demand, revenues and the benefit-cost ratio of charging passengers premium prices. The NAO estimates that there is a £3.3 billion funding gap over four years (2017-18 to 2020-21) which the government has yet to decide how to fill.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document sets out the government's initial preferences for phase two of HS2, extending the route north of Birmingham to Manchester and Leeds. HS2 is a once in-a-generation opportunity to transform Britain's connectivity, capacity and competitiveness. It will be a national asset, slashing journey times and improving services between our cities and regions. It will also free up substantial space on the existing railway. Part I of this document sets out more of the background to the HS2 project. It describes in greater detail the role that high speed rail has to play in meeting the future transport and economic needs of this country. Part 2 moves on to discuss the detail of the government's initial preferred route, station and depot options for phase two. It looks at the western and eastern sections in turn, summarising each of the initial preferred route and station options - running northwards from Birmingham and having five stops at: Manchester; Manchester Airport; Toton in the East Midlands; Sheffield; and Leeds. It also includes more details on how high speed trains would be able to continue to destinations such as Liverpool, Runcorn, Wigan, Durham, Newcastle, Glasgow and Edinburgh through connections with the existing rail network. It then explains the government's position on Heathrow. Part 3 covers the next steps for the project. The government has an extensive programme of collaboration and partnership working with key stakeholders to take the initial options presented in this document forward

Book Synopsis HS2 phase two exceptional hardship scheme by : Great Britain: Department for Transport
Download or read book HS2 phase two exceptional hardship scheme written by Great Britain: Department for Transport and published by Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-07-17 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exceptional hardship scheme is designed to assist owner-occupiers of residential, agricultural, and small business property before the phase two route itself is firmed up. It is a temporary scheme to help people whose properties are affected by the plans for the line, and are experiencing (or are at risk of experiencing) exceptional hardship because they can not sell them. Successful applicants will have their properties purchased at 100% of their un-blighted open market value - that is, the value of the property were there no proposals for phase two of HS2. It is not the only opportunity for compensation. As plans for the phase two line are firmed up, the Department will consider options for further long-term discretionary compensation.

Book Synopsis High speed rail by : Great Britain: Department for Transport
Download or read book High speed rail written by Great Britain: Department for Transport and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-01-10 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High speed rail is already being constructed or been used in many nations. Britain's exile from this would mean losing out to global competitors. The long term option in investing in high speed rail would transform and allow Britain to compete globally and for national economic prosperity. Such investment in faster and more convenient journeys between the major cities and international networks will achieve two objectives; supporting companies and wealth creators and also better connect communities. Further upgrades of existing lines can provide additional capacity but growth in demand looks set to outstrip the pace of this and is seen as a short term approach unable to meet long term challenges. The choice is not between building new lines or not but what type of new line to build and new lines only built to enable conventional speeds would certainly fail to reap the economic rewards offered by high speed. HS2 is also about enough capacity for passengers - those on crowded inter city trains will increasingly be forced to stand for long periods and for commuters who eventually will be unable to get on their trains at peak times. There are further benefits of increasing rail freight, getting lorries off roads and saving carbon. The Government is also committed to developing a national high speed rail network with the lowest feasible impacts on local communities and the natural environment. In response to the consultation process there have been changes - additional tunnelling and alignment of the route in a number of places. The Government wishes to see further engagement with local people as the project progresses and as further environmental assessment is undertaken. The Government wants to reassure people that the project is both affordable and can be delivered to time and budget

This book was released on 2012-07-06 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The high speed railway linking London to the Channel Tunnel, known as High Speed 1, has now been fully open for almost five years and has had a good performance record. There have also been some costly mistakes. The Department originally expected London & Continental Railways Limited (LCR) to service the project debt from future revenues from Eurostar UK. However by the end of 1997 revenues were substantially below LCR's forecasts. Consequently, in 1998, the Department agreed to restructure the deal and guarantee most of LCR's debt. The taxpayer is now servicing and repaying the project debt of £4.8 billion. Passenger demand for international services on the line has been much lower than forecast and that is the root cause of the failure of the original deal. Planning assumptions failed to properly consider the impact on passenger numbers of the growth of low cost airlines and the competitive response of ferry companies. The Department still does not have plans in place to evaluate fully the impact of HS1. Total taxpayer support for the line, over a 60 year period to 2070, has an estimated present value of £10.2 billion. Benefits for passengers from shorter journey times over this period have an estimated present value of £7 billion. The basis of this cost/benefit analysis, however, is open to challenge. Also the Department will need to evaluate HS1's regeneration benefits and wider economic impacts worth many billions of pounds if the project is to demonstrate value for money. The Department must also learn the lessons as it develops its plans for HS2.

Book Synopsis High Performance AC Drives by : Mukhtar Ahmad
Download or read book High Performance AC Drives written by Mukhtar Ahmad and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-08 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Variable speed is one of the important requirements in most of the electric drives. Earlier dc motors were the only drives that were used in industries requiring - eration over a wide range of speed with step less variation, or requiring fine ac- racy of speed control. Such drives are known as high performance drives. AC - tors because of being highly coupled non-linear devices can not provide fast dynamic response with normal controls. However, recently, because of ready availability of power electronic devices, and digital signal processors ac motors are beginning to be used for high performance drives. Field oriented control or vector control has made a fundamental change with regard to dynamic perfo- ance of ac machines. Vector control makes it possible to control induction or s- chronous motor in a manner similar to control scheme used for the separately - cited dc motor. Recent advances in artificial intelligence techniques have also contributed in the improvement in performance of electric drives. This book presents a comprehensive view of high performance ac drives. It may be considered as both a text book for graduate students and as an up-to-date monograph. It may also be used by R & D professionals involved in the impro- ment of performance of drives in the industries. The book will also be beneficial to the researchers pursuing work on sensorless and direct torque control of electric drives as up-to date references in these topics are provided.
