President’s Lecture:  Transport Planning: Back to the future

Tuesday 25 March 2014, 1800 hrs for 1830 hrs, Hallam Conference Centre, 44 Hallam Street, London, W1W 6JJ

Transport planning in Britain is at a cross-roads. Political support for pricing road use has receded. Only the national agencies and Transport for London have the resources to develop major initiatives. Mega-projects costing £10bn+ face lengthy planning battles; modest investments are overlooked. There are no new major urban transport initiatives outside London. Meanwhile, there is unprecedented demographic growth, and congestion will increase on road, rail and aviation networks. Intelligent planning has good answers that will accelerate and facilitate change, ease congestion and improve quality of life. In transport, planning is not the enemy of economic ambition: it’s a pre-requisite.
