Strategic transport models

To plan for the future, we use a range of sources of information and analysis techniques. These include the application of the strategic transport models developed by TfL City Planning.

There are benefits to investing in transport such as making it easier for people to get around, or reducing public transport crowding and road congestion.

But with limited financial resources and a variety of options, how can we tell which transport improvements are the best to invest in?

We can do this by assessing the potential impact of each proposal. Transport models are tools which help to provide a robust and consistent evidence base for these assessments.

This brochure describes the suite of strategic transport models owned, operated and made available by TfL Planning.
