TPS is pleased to announce the launch Transport Planning Day 2024.
See all the current vacancies.
Open to all those studying or working in transport planning, or related fields, on a professional basis.
At the TPS AGM on 11 March, Board Member, Joanna Ward, was delighted to announce the overall winner of the annual Bursary Competition for 2020.
This year's theme "A transport system that is accessible for everyone – how do we make this happen?' attracted the highest number of entries in the competitions history.
The judges were impressed with all the entries but agreed to award Victoria Heald of Atkins (pictured) for her paper entitled – ‘Building barriers through bias? Establishing measures to tackle unconscious bias in transport planning’ with the overall winners accolade.

All the papers from the 2020 competition can be found on the TPS Bursary page on the website at https://tps.org.uk/bursaries - they make an interesting and topical read and tie in with this year's Transport Planning Day theme.
Each bursarian submitting an idea is supported by a senior TPS member within the profession, and this gives them a unique opportunity to benefit from a wealth of experience and advice.
The value of each bursary is £500 with the best paper receiving an award and an additional £250. The competition not only provides applicants the chance to expand their knowledge on a chosen topic, it raises their profile within the industry and contributes towards their Professional Development Scheme requirement as well.
