In welcoming this article Stephen Bennett, Chair of TPS said 

"The authors are absolutely spot-on when they say that, ‘It is more important than ever to realise that effective transport planning is about ensuring the right outcomes rather than grabbing funds for things we do not need’.  This is a good call to action for transport planners and we are interested in the views of TPS members on how the profession should respond to this. Let us know your views about what "right" and "wrong" look like - please send your comments to info@tps.org.uk.”
