Transport Modelling
Quantifying the impact of change
You may be a public body which needs to develop a national or regional freight strategy to increase the efficiency and reduce the impact of the freight sector; or you might be a company that needs to understand whether a new service can be competitive; a port that wants to understand how much traffic a new terminal would attract; or a highways authority which needs to explore how much freight will be attracted to a new road.
