Service: Active Travel and Sustainable Mobility

Delivering a meaningful modal shift towards non-car travel modes of travel e.g. walking, cycling, scooting, public transport, mobility as a service, etc. is a key transport policy objective, with such change essential to deliver upon overarching climate change goals. Consideration of these users from the outset of the planning and design processes ensures their needs are accommodated. In doing so, it has the potential to maximise their future use and minimise traffic impacts.

  • Transport policy alignment reviews
  • Modal choice and behavioural change advice
  • GIS accessibility and data analysis
  • Employee and visitor travel survey design, execution, data analysis and reporting
  • Active travel scheme (including blue/ greenways) options identification and appraisal, and route planning, design and impact assessment

  • Masterplans’ development – transport planning and design support
  • Safe Routes to Schools (SRTS) scheme planning and design
  • Workplace and Residential Travel Plans/ Mobility Management Plans, guided by National Transport Authority and relevant international guidance
