Work in Progress

The story so far... 

On this page we will be reporting the work that is currently underway. Currently the work in progress can be summarised as:

Information collection

The study is building on reliable information that already exists from various sources.

Developing the options

The options are now being developed in greater detail and more information about the options will be added to the web site over the next few months.

Four generic options are being tested. These are cycling and walking, highways, public transport and road pricing. A combination of these options is also being tested, as well as the base case, which is the existing transport plus the improvements proposed by the CHUMMS study. (CHUMMS is the Cambridge-Huntingdon Multi-Modal Study funded by the Department for Transport. For further details, check out the presentation at our first seminar.)

The effects on transport are being assessed for years 2011 and 2016 and the effects on land use for 2011 to 2016 and 2021.
 

Have your say

An essential part of the current phase of work is about coming up with innovative ideas. Do you have some suggestions to make?

If you do, then why not share them through the Cambridge Futures Forum?
