CIHT in cooperation with TPS and RTPI has published a new advice note "Better Planning, better transport, better places" 

This advice, led by CIHT in collaboration with TPS and RTPI, is the result of a great deal of work by professionals interested in creating better places by better integrating planning and transport.

Martin Tugwell, President of CIHT and a past TPS Chair said 

"The advice is designed to complement guidance from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and we are pleased to see the increasing working relationship between the ministry and the Department for Transport. We also applaud the recognition that professionals have a key role to play in addressing the integration of new development and transport.

Better planning, better transport, better places also provides practical solutions to tackling the challenge of climate change and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

We would like to express our thanks to all those people who have supported the development of this advice, in particular the members of the working group which was chaired by Lynda Addison OBE FCIHT, Immediate past Chair of TPS. 

We look forward to instilling this advice across our professional networks to ensure the issues covered are addressed in practice".
