Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
This research aims to discover whether there are complementary benefits to be gained from using a combination of soft measures (awareness campaigns and company travel plans) and hard measures (engineering and physical restrictions) to influence levels of demand for car based transport in urban areas. The research is especially topical given the current emphasis on integrated transport strategies within the Government's recent White Paper on transport. The work will provide further evidence to demonstrate whether such combined strategies provide extra benefits over and above the individual effects of measures. The particular novelty of this proposal is in the use of each type of measure to enhance the design of the other and through the detailed experimental design enabling the assessment of the performance of the two types of measure on their own and when combined
