Reference is often made to the need to promote 'sustainable lifestyles'. Much research has examined the components of sustainability at a sector level (energy, transport, built form, etc.), but little work in the UK has directly audited complete ...
United KingdomThis is the third project in the H139 series on land use/transport modelling. It will consider business location, how this changes over time and the role of transport in influencing this. This project aims to deliver: A database of business locations in ...
United KingdomThe research is planned to deliver results from an analysis of rural accessibility and cancer survival in the form of an initial literature review followed by extensive secondary analysis of existing data. More specially the research will deliver results ...
United KingdomThis project arose from the need to investigate the relative carbon intensity of locally produced food compared to that transported further but from grown using less fuel. The objectives for this small project are to understand the supply chains and build ...
United KingdomFamily groups attended trial sessions on using the portal. During each session the family was observed carrying out a typical travel task and were asked about what they liked and what they disliked about the site. To provide advice to the designers of the ...
United KingdomUG390 The purpose of this project is to evaluate the current (as at 2001/02) Regional Transport Strategies, and to produce a good practice guide for the further development of Regional Transport Strategies. The objective of the guide resulting from this p ...
United KingdomThe Scottish School Travel Advisory Group (Scottish STAG) was established by the Scottish Executive in August 2000 with the objective of increasing the proportion of non-car based travel to school. The group seeks to identify practical means of increasing ...
United KingdomThe Community Transport Association (CTA) estimates that there are more than 800 community transport operators (CTOs) serving rural areas in the UK and, of these, many are enterprise based in the sense that over half of their total income is derived from ...
United KingdomThe project aims to asses: How much are we travelling as a nation? Who is travelling? What changes have there been over time? What might happen in the future? At the aggregate level, NTS data for 2008/10 shows that 49% of the distance travelled by Scotti ...
United KingdomThe project partners will develop then test a scalable, multi-modal freight delivery system enabling a transformation in parcel delivery for congested urban areas. Based on a powered trike trailer and unique control software, we will develop a system that ...
United KingdomThe proposed research is particularly novel as for the first time freight transport and e-commerce are explicitly examined as integral elements of the total supply chain. Also, the research brings together a unique combination of skills in terms of the in ...
United KingdomResearch will be undertaken into the design of alternative approaches and ways of modifying system architecture and reviewing these against the open standards specification. The system will be demonstrated in action on the relevant County Council informat ...
United KingdomThe project aims to develop an advanced analysis framework for the vulnerability of a transport network by introducing the dependent probabilities of link failures, defining an innovative framework for analysing cases when normal activities are not mainta ...
United KingdomThe Container World modelling project (CW for short) will use computer modelling to simulate the UK container business as a whole. The goal is to provide government and commercial enterprises with a flexible tool that they can easily adapt to address th ...
United KingdomThis project will deliver an improved version of the National Transport Model (NTM) which will, amongst other improvements, represent inter-area reassignment of highway traffic in response to road user charges or increasing traffic congestion. This will ...
United KingdomA report on reverse logistics will be delivered based on the findings of the multiple sector literature review, multiple industrial case studies, and focus group survey. The results can then be used to guide a possible bid for research funds for a larger ...
United KingdomThis details how the logistics provider TDG has worked with BP Chemicals to tailor a specific road to rail transport service. This case study describes a TDG initative that was developed to: tailor road/rail service to customer's potential needs, but ...
United KingdomThe model will be a modified version of the MDST freight model currently licensed to DTLR. The model will be capable of analysing the impacts of changes to all policies and economic conditions which the current model is capable of analysing. However the m ...
United KingdomSTP 14/6/12 This research is based on the principles of systems thinking, i.e. to take a total end to end supply chain perspective in which transport is an integral part. In particular, it studies the role of: Lean thinking in aiding the banishment of w ...
United KingdomUG220 This project intends to deliver a report that will build upon the findings of Multi-Modal Responses to Advanced Transport Telematics (UG120). The report will discuss novel but practical methods that would be capable of providing answers and suggest ...
