Services provided
Temple provided input into team meetings working with Mott MacDonald and carried out a number of stakeholder liaison and consultation meetings across the regions to determine the range of requirements for solving the various transportation and social issues related to the study. We provided specialist environmental input into reviewing a number of transportation scenarios including improved road links, new and upgraded railway lines and a strategy for improved bus services.
The purpose of the study was to develop a long-term sustainable management strategy for the principal transport corridors from London to Ipswich. The study was designed to provide solutions to how different transport modes and measures could support the Governments objectives set out in the Transport White Paper.
Temple were involved in testing the environmental impacts of the various strategies including a number of baseline and modelling studies and in particular provided input on noise and air quality issues.
Benefits
Temple presented a unique understanding of specialist subject areas allied with transportation and sustainability issues. This was extremely valuable as part of the stakeholder consultation.
