| The art of transport modelling, scheme appraisal and evaluation
continues to be a fundamental prerequisite to the successful construction
and operation of major UK transport schemes.
Whether urban tramway, interchange hub or introduction of major
new national highway schemes or rail services, transport modelling
has a fundamental role to play. With the costs of new transport
schemes often in the region of £bn's careful selection and
evaluation of potential demand, revenue streams and passenger benefits
is vital to a successful project. The use of powerful computer models
enables a large number of options to be rapidly assimilated and
compared and results to be clearly, consistently and effectively
appraised.
Jacobs Consultancy has undertaken a large number of transport modelling
projects, including, but not limited to:
- Tyne and Wear Strategic Multi Modal Model Development
- Area-wide Congestion Charging and Western Extension
- East Thames River Crossings Tolling Strategies
