Abstract

In May 2000 the Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (DETR) commissioned a consortium of consultants - David Simmonds Consultancy, MVA, John Bates Services, and the University of Leeds Institute for Transport Studies (ITS) - to carry out a wide-ranging review of future needs for multi-modal passenger modelling and of how these needs may be met. This paper is an outline of the work done in that study. The study was specifically about passenger transport, not freight, and it concentrated on the modelling of travel itself rather than related determinants such as car ownership. The Brief specified three parts to the study: (1) an assessment of future modelling requirements, taking account (for example) of changes in policy issues, in appraisal and in decision-making; (2) a review of current and emerging possibilities; and (3) an assessment of possibilities against requirements, taking account of practical issues (such as data needs), leading to recommendations.
