The &ldquo;easiest&rdquo; routes were already taken, so the Midland was forced to take a challenging route through the Derbyshire Dales and indeed the route is sometimes referred to as &ldquo;The Peak Line&rdquo;. It was built with two tracks, and as well as freight traffic it carried express trains between Manchester and St Pancras in London. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c5\">The line closed to rail traffic in 1968. In 1981 parts of the line were reopened to walkers, but the three longest tunnels remained closed. Frustratingly this meant that significant diversions had to be made by anyone following the original &ldquo;Monsal Trail&rdquo;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11\"><span>Luckily, f<\/span><span class=\"c5\">ollowing a grant from The Department for Transport, the tunnels were made safe and then the four longest tunnels were re-opened in 2011, thus completing the 8.5 mile &ldquo;Monsal Trail&rdquo; as we enjoy it today. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c15\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden; display: inline-block; margin: 0.00px 0.00px; border: 0.00px solid #000000; transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px); -webkit-transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px); width: 474.65px; height: 337.79px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"images\/image41.jpg\" style=\"width: 474.65px; height: 337.79px; margin-left: 0.00px; margin-top: 0.00px; transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px); -webkit-transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px);\" title=\"\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c15 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c15\"><span class=\"c7\">Looking west inside Headstone Tunnel showing the 3m wide shared use tarmac path<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c15\"><span class=\"c7\">also seen is one of the workmans &ldquo;safety refuge&rdquo; (they must have been thinner back then!) <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11\"><span class=\"c5\">The Trail is managed by the Peak District National Park Authority and has become hugely popular attracting &nbsp;over 300,000 visitors a year!<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"page-break-before:always;display:none;\">\n<h1 class=\"c42 c13\" id=\"h.5vc14j9u0f23\"><span class=\"c9\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c7\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h1 class=\"c42\" id=\"h.a0x1mtsjy3re\"><span>10 <\/span><span class=\"c9\">Safety<\/span><\/h1>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c5\">Safety is the primary concern for any transport system<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c5\">There are two main aspects for the safety of people (and animals) &nbsp;:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c5\">a) on the Monsal Trail<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c5\">and<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c5\">b) travelling on Monsal Rail<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden; display: inline-block; margin: 0.00px 0.00px; border: 0.00px solid #000000; transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px); -webkit-transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px); width: 672.76px; height: 256.00px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"images\/image98.jpg\" style=\"width: 672.76px; height: 256.00px; margin-left: 0.00px; margin-top: 0.00px; transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px); -webkit-transform: rotate(0.00rad) translateZ(0px);\" title=\"\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c12\"><span class=\"c26\">A typical cross section of trackbed showing Monsal Rail and &ldquo;Trail Users&rdquo; on a narrow embankment section<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c12 c13\"><span class=\"c26\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span>P<\/span><span class=\"c5\">edestrians and cyclists already co-exist with &ldquo;full size&rdquo; Trams in some of the UK&#39;s city centres (and hundreds in Europe).

For example, users of a 3m shared use path with fencing either side may &lsquo;shy&rsquo; away from the fences. In practice, the &lsquo;shy distance&rsquo; can have the effect of offsetting path users towards the centre of the path.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c36 c27\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11\"><span class=\"c36 c27\">Subsequently, a 3m wide shared-use path with fencing either side may only have an effective width of 2m.

This is mainly due to the risk of handlebars, pedals and stirrups striking vertical features situated alongside the path edge. Thus the effect of shy distances on the effective width of a path needs to be considered against the composition of users of the traffic-free route.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c36 c27\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11\"><span class=\"c36 c27\">The table below summarises the extra width that can be added to a path to achieve or maintain effective widths.

The sand needs to be clean, angular, and well-graded and is stored in a sandbox attached to the locomotive next to the driving wheels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span>It will be necessary to liaise with the environmental bodies to confirm the type of sand to be used.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"page-break-before:always;display:none;\">\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h1 class=\"c42\" id=\"h.k94uhfsh39g7\"><span>46 <\/span><span class=\"c9\">&ldquo;Main Line&rdquo; &nbsp;reinstatement proposals and the consequential closure of The Monsal Trail<\/span><\/h1>\n<p class=\"c11\"><span class=\"c5\">Periodically proposals are made to close the Monsal Trail so that a &ldquo;Main Line&rdquo; (Standard gauge) railway can be reinstated. &nbsp;Quite rightly, these proposals have all been rejected as any alternative route for Trail Users would be completely inferior to the current &ldquo;Monsal Trail&rdquo;.

These tests are:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c36 c27\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c27 c36\">1. Need: Is there a strategic need and is that need in the national interest? This is important because of the principle of considering major development in the National Park and the specific impact on the Natural Zone, which has the highest level of protection in the National Park, characterised as the wilder parts of the landscape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c36 c27\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c36 c27\">2. Impact: Can an equally convenient and acceptable provision of the Monsal Trail be provided elsewhere that is of a similar quality and without having an unacceptable impact on the high quality landscape and environment through which it passes?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c36 c27\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c36 c27\">The Authority has worked with MEMRAP to understand if their current proposal can pass these tests, however to date we have not received anything to indicate the tests can, or have, been overcome by their work. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c36 c27\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c36 c27\">The National Park Authority is totally committed to a low-carbon and sustainable future for travel and access for all to the National Park. However, we do not accept that the reinstatement of the railway on the route of the Monsal Trail is part of the solution, for the reasons we have set out above. We cannot therefore, support the reinstatement of what is being referred to as the &lsquo;Peaks and Dales line&rsquo;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c36 c27\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c11 c13\"><span class=\"c5\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c14\"><\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"page-break-before:always;display:none;\">\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c14\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4 c13\"><span class=\"c14\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h1 class=\"c42\" id=\"h.lcfb8acafwd6\"><span>47 <\/span><span>&ldquo;Crossing&rdquo;
