Following on from groundwork set during 2015, Transdev continues to refresh the image of its operations for 2016 complete with three new rebrands for Harrogate, Keighley and Blackburn. An example of Keighley's new company brand "the Keighley Bus Company" is seen on YJ16 DWL, one of six brand new air-conditioned (Thermo-King) 11.7m long Optare Versa single deckers to the operation; only 3 are branded for the K7 route as the other 3 have been given a yellow/green livery (which has been noted to be very similar to the 'Badgerline' livery of the West of England area in the 1990's) and have been branded for the route 66 DalesWay service - the brand had not been launched at the time of this depot open day. Interestingly, despite Optare offering a new revised style for the rear end, Transdev have specifically ordered these Versa's with the conventional rear end complete with 'Spider Eyes' rear light clusters. The interior specification of these buses includes wood-effect flooring, wi-fi and USB sockets, in addition to audio 'next stop' announcements which are linked to the destination equipment and GPS-based ticket machine; but most notably the seating has been re-trimmed to the brand new style which will be used across the Blazefield fleets and specially branded routes - the seat moquette is a Ray Stenning 'Creating Desire' creation, whilst headrests are leather and are coloured according to the company the bus is based at (Red for Harrogate, Green for Keighley, Blue for Blackburn and also for Yorkshire Coastliner). The moquette itself is a grey base overlayed with the triangular chunks of colour which are used in the external livery to denote each fleet... red for Harrogate (also for RedExpress), black for route 36, orange for Little Explorers, grey for CityZap, mid-blue for Blackburn, light-blue for Coastliner, green for Keighley, lime-green/yellow for DalesWay, purple/pink for Hotline (a brand yet to be launched, to connect Burnley and Preston via Blackburn)

Since construction began in September 2017, the site of the Mukilteo Multimodal Terminal Project has taken shape. Crews have removed walls from the abandoned tank farm and are working to construct building and bridge supports, as well as install stormwater utility lines.
Construction on the main terminal building will begin in August 2018 and the new terminal is expected to open for operation in December 2019.

Groundwork RVA's Green Team participated in a service learning camp at SNP. The Green Team performed several service projects in the park, one of which was lopping locust in Big Meadows where the education staff conducts programs.
This program is supported by a generous donation from the Shenandoah National Park Trust.

On the afternoon and evening of 1 November 2022, vicious and heavy showers affected the south of Hampshire. Most people at this Fareham supermarket chose to brave them or wait for a break. The alternative chosen by one flatbed truck was to park at an angle in the aisle between four disabled spaces, obstructing all four to a greater or lesser extent. Of the driver there was no sign.

Following on from groundwork set during 2015, Transdev continues to refresh the image of its operations for 2016 complete with three new rebrands for Harrogate, Keighley and Blackburn. Examples from all three of the 'company' operations to have been rebranded are seen together in this photo with an example from the Blackburn Bus Company, the Keighley Bus Company, and the Harrogate Bus Company....
In an order of 24 vehicles, YJ16 DVV and YJ16 DWL are brand new 11.7m air-conditioned (Thermo-King) Optare Versa single deckers - the order split with 18 to Blackburn (as per 230 on the left) and 6 to Keighley as per 242 in the centre. Interestingly, despite Optare offering a new revised style for the rear end, Transdev have specifically ordered these Versa's with the conventional rear end complete with 'Spider Eyes' rear light clusters. The interior specification of these buses includes wood-effect flooring, wi-fi and USB sockets, in addition to audio 'next stop' announcements which are linked to the destination equipment and GPS-based ticket machine; but most notably the seating has been re-trimmed to the brand new style which will be used across the Blazefield fleets and specially branded routes - the seat moquette is a Ray Stenning 'Creating Desire' creation, whilst headrests are leather and are coloured according to the company the bus is based at (Red for Harrogate, Green for Keighley, Blue for Blackburn and also for Yorkshire Coastliner). The moquette itself is a grey base overlayed with the triangular chunks of colour which are used in the external livery to denote each fleet... red for Harrogate (also for RedExpress), black for route 36, orange for Little Explorers, grey for CityZap, mid-blue for Blackburn, light-blue for Coastliner, green for Keighley, lime-green/yellow for DalesWay, purple/pink for Hotline (a brand yet to be launched, to connect Burnley and Preston via Blackburn).
This new image started in Harrogate on route 36, while route 1 which connects Harrogate and Knaresborough was the first to receive single deckers in the new two-tone red livery with the added bonus of having been refurbished and given a facelift so as to resemble a Wright Eclipse Urban 2 complete with crystal-clear white LED destination equipment, whilst branding sees the number 1 logo given the same 'defragmentation' style as is used on route 36. One of the Volvo B7RLE's now assigned for route 1 is YJ07 PDU which is here at the depot open day.

Groundwork Lawrence Earth Day is a city-wide cleanup event that happens every year. Held virtually over the last two years, we are excited that, once again, it will be an in-person event!! Volunteers of all ages are welcome to help out as are businesses, schools, non-profits, and community organizations.
Laying the groundwork for the occupation of the restored North Hollywood Southern Pacific / Pacific Electric depot by Goundworks Coffee, implying the opening of the business in the not-too-distant future. By extrapolation, the pedestrian underpass to the Metro Red Line subway station should also be open soon.
I took this picture on the site of the old Merton Board Mills in High Street [Priory Road] Merton in 1999. I've got it down as a lime spreader but I bet it did more than it said on the tin.

Creggan Country park played host to the Gruffalo on friday thanks to Environmental officer Karen Healy entered The Big Lunch Competition to wina visit from the Gruffalo!
Karen who plans a Big Lunch day in the park this June said, we are delighted the Gruffalo could be part of our special free
wildlife fun day launching our new nature hub.
The Gruffalo greeted children from CPTT, St Bernadette’s Playgroup and Holy
Child PS and took them on a walk through the new hedgerow maze. In
partnership with the Eden Project ‘Big Lunch’ visitors brought along a teddy bear
picnic and enjoyed it while listening to a representative from Creggan Library
read the Gruffalo story.
Pupils from St Joseph’s Boys School and St John’s PS met birds of prey
including a barn owl and buzzard and took part in an edible wildlife art workshop.
‘Nature’s Playground’ was made possible thanks to funding from Greencare
North West and consists of a hedgerow maze, nature themed playground game,
biodiversity mural and wildflower area.
Karen Healy, Environmental Officer “We are delighted to finally be able to
launch our nature hub, it is a fantastic way to encourage children to play outdoors
and explore nature on their doorstep. We would like to say a huge thank you to
our funder, The Conservation Volunteers for creating the hedgerow maze, artist
Sheila Morrison for designing and creating our playground game and pupils from
St Joseph’s Boys School, Holy Child PS and St John’s PS for creating our
biodiversity themed mural – we couldn’t have done it without their help.“
Melvyn Waddell, Senior Project Development Officer at Groundwork NI
commented, “This project was funded through landfill tax credits generated from
RiverRidge Recycling’s operations as well as Derry City & Strabane District
Council. It is great to see how an underused and derelict space can be
transformed, with a relatively small grant, into a more vibrant, colorful and
imaginative community space. Well done and congratulations to all those
involved and I hope that the space proves to be a well-used and successful
project moving forward. A total of six groups were successful totaling just under
£60k and congratulations must go to Creggan Country Park for being the first
group to successfully complete and launch their project.”
The Greencare North West Programme, managed and administered by
Groundwork NI, invited groups and organisation to apply for grants of up to a
maximum of £10k in December last year for community or biodiversity projects
that aimed to transform their local surroundings for the better.
