The START (Development of strategies designed to avoid the need for road travel) project commenced in January 1998 and was completed in April 1999. The project aimed to (i) quantify the impact of measures to reduce road travel; (ii) assess the extent to which travel reduction strategies may affect road infrastructure financing and cost recovery plans and (iii) produce an action plan of policy packages to reduce the need for road based travel.
Work Package 1: Establish baseline Work carried out included the identification and collection of basic sources of information on the impact of different travel reduction measures. The other main task was a review of approaches to road infrastructure cost recovery and financing.
Work Package 2: Impacts of travel reduction measures The major activity in WP2 was to review and analyze available evidence on the travel and wider impacts of a range of different travel reduction measures. A supplementary activity was to review the results from a number of existing studies into public attitudes toward road transport, its related problems and the possible policy measures which could be used to alleviate those problems.
Work Package 3: Developing policy packages Drawing on the output from WP2, the objective of WP3 was to develop policy packages which would lead to reductions in road travel and which were likely to be acceptable to policy makers, businesses and individuals. A subsidiary activity was to assess the impact of travel reduction strategies on road infrastructure cost recovery and financing.
Work Package 4: Action plan
Drawing on all of the preceding work packages, WP4 was concerned with the final objective of the project, the production of an action plan to reduce the need for road travel. The Action plan, was completed in May 1999. Selection of measures for inclusion in this plan was, in broad terms, based upon: (i) research evidence concerning the impact and effectiveness of different travel reduction measures, collected in the earlier part of the project; (ii) a recognition that travel reduction is an intermediate objective and that the ultimate objective of policy is the maximization of economic welfare and (iii) the need to propose a set of practical and efficient measures for reducing the need for road travel.
