Jon Parker, Chair, East Midlands Region, Colin Brader and Victoria Hills, Chair, TPS, with attendees in the grand surroundings of Leicester City Town Hall

 

 

On Monday 7 December, Victoria Hills, TPS Chair, continued with her tour of the TPS regions with a visit to the growing East Midlands Region. Her visit coincided with an evening meeting that saw the joint winner of the TPS Transport Planner of the Year Award 2009, Colin Brader, delivering an excellent presentation entitled ‘Saving our cities: the role of Bus Rapid Transit’.

The inspiring and lively presentation provided a whistle-stop tour around the world of BRT, as well as an insight into what life is like working in different cities and cultures.

The event saw the TPS teaming up with the IHT, ICE, CILT and ACT TravelWise to ensure a diverse mix of attendees that led to a thought provoking discussion, and the TPS are grateful to Leicester City Council who hosted and facilitated the event.
