High-Quality Integrated Transport Operations and Networks

This has emerged as a theme in our work in several areas:

• Busways and Quality Bus Corridors, Networks and Partnerships
  The PROCEED project is entirely about high-quality bus operation. Also, see our projects on Bus Rapid Transit. John Austin also planned a conference on the theme of Delivering Bus Service Quality.
  
  
• Interchanges

• Barriers to Public Transport Use
  Various projects we have undertaken and studied have demonstrated that this is crucially linked to Perceptions (which clearly depend greatly on Delivery), Ease of use and the ability to understand the Public Transport 'system', Availability, Affordability and Information.
  
  
• Traveller User Needs

• Organisational and Structural Barriers to Delivery of Successful Integrated Transport
  Insight into this has come through our work in ATLANTIC, Transport Direct, Traveline, and Public Transport Information Strategies. Plus through John's Churchill Fellowship study-trip to Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia.
