STUDY OF TRANSPORT NEEDS FOR THE 21ST CENTURY

The Rees Jeffreys Road Fund is an independent charitable trust whose founder was dedicated to a broad vision of a road system which would be efficient, adequate, safe, and a pleasure to use. In 1988 the Trustees discussed the increasingly obvious deepening of transport problems and took the view that solutions could only emerge from a wider-ranging study than had previously been attempted. The study started in February 1989 and runs for two years. Contributors include experts from some twenty academic institutions and research consultancies, who are currently writing a series of discussion papers on a wide range of topics - rural and urban transport, freight, long distance travel, the environment, the role of the market, needs of non-car owners, the Channel Tunnel, contribution of information technology, public transport, and so on.
