Experience of the travel environment
Many people spend a significant minority of their time undertaking routine travel, and therefore experience of the travel environment is important to quality of life and, in some cases, economic productivity.
The theme examines those experiences with a view to informing policy and practice, including in respect of transport service provision, vehicle and terminal design and the economic evaluation of travel time.
Research projects
For each project we provide key details and a summary. In most cases a two-page briefing sheet is available.
