What is transport planning?
“Transport planning is taken to be all those activities involving the analysis and evaluation of past,
present and prospective problems associated with the demand for the movement of people, goods
and information at a local, nation or international level and the identification of solutions in the
context of current and future identification of economic, social, environmental, land use and
technical developments and in the light of the aspirations and concerns of the society which it
serves” – According to Transport Planning Society, UK [cited in Rodrigue, J-P., C. Comtois, Slack, B.,
2009. The Geography of Transport Systems. Routledge, New York]
Transport policy and planning
- Transport policy concerns the development of a set of constructs and propositions that are
established to achieve particular objectives relating to socio-economic development, and the
functioning and performance of the transport system.
- Thus – policy and planning represent separate parts of an overall process of intervention.
- The terms “policy” and “planning” are used very loosely and are frequently interchangeable
in many transport studies. Precise definitions are not easily come by.
- But policy may be developed without any direct planning implications (no implementation),
and planning is frequently undertaken outside any of direct policy context (management, no
policy development).
