The events of 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic is having an unprecedented impact on how we get around, how goods are transported, and how transport planners do their work.

In April 2020 at the height of the national lockdown, the Directors of the TPS recognised the need to look into the effects of the pandemic on the industry as a whole and James Gleave and Joanna Ward support from others set up a project to allow transport planners to share their stories, thoughts, and feelings about transport planning and its future in this uncertain time.

The results of that project have been submitted to the Transport Select Committee’s call for evidence on the Coronavirus Implications for Transport.
