Public transport planning

Our team provides bus route planning assisted by GIS analysis and associated economic assessment. We analyse current usage by interrogating databases, including Bee Card boarding data or those held by operators. This is a valuable basis for evidence-based improvements.

We have also been involved in reviews of bus parking layouts and bus stop designs and reviews.
