In Phase One of the research programme, we have developed three projects that each address substantive gaps in the existing knowledge base. The first deals with the economic impacts of transport provision and movement patterns (in terms of labour market productivity and agglomeration benefits), the second with the non-transport technological drivers of change in demand for mobility, and the third with governance structures and processes, and their implications for policy development and delivery, using climate change as the policy topic of study. Each project is of approximately three years duration.
