Developing Congestion Charging schemes is high-risk.
We offer
expertise and proven experience in design, management,
monitoring and assessment - helping policy-makers develop
schemes that succeed.
Congestion charging is now a key component of many
local
transport strategies as well as national transport policy. The
contrasting experience in London and Edinburgh underlines
some of the critical factors for success: soundly-based
scheme design and linkage with complementary measures;
wide-ranging option appraisals; choice of appropriate
technology; effective public communications; and consultation
throughout all stages of design, development and
implementation.
Through our extensive experience in the
UK and internationally, including London,
we offer the tools, resources and expert knowledge to address the
many challenges
to securing stakeholder acceptance and successful implementation.
We offer:
- scheme design;
- complementary measures;
- choice of technology
and operational planning;
- demand and revenue forecasting;
- researching
driver responses and impacts on vulnerable groups;
- accessibility
planning to address social exclusion issues;
- assessing economic,
social, environmental, business and landuse
impacts;
- public and stakeholder consultation;
- monitoring
and evaluation.
