In this presentation WSP in the UK’s Transport Net Zero team will provide an update on the latest policy, guidance, tools and best-practice and how this has elevated carbon’s place in the development of transport strategies and schemes in the UK.
Areas of innovation and best-practice that this presentation will cover will include:
• Network level emission baselines and how this informs an understanding of emission sources, the scale of the challenge and what transport outcomes are required to achieve decarbonization commitments
• Tools for quantifying carbon impacts of policies and interventions as part of transport strategy and spatial planning
• How best-practice carbon management and whole-life carbon assessment is being integrated into scheme development
• Innovative new tools to improve quantification of user emissions and infrastructure carbon
This webinar is for anyone interested working in the transport sector that has an interest in how to reduce carbon emissions. It will provide a summary of innovative analytical methodologies but also what these methodologies and our climate commitments mean for transport policy and scheme development.
Presenters:
Tom Gold – Associate Director, Transport Net Zero & WSP in the UK Local Government Sector Sustainability Lead
Alex Thomas – Associate Director & WSP in the UK Transport Net Zero Team Lead
Liv Rayner – Transport Decarbonization Consultant
Liv Cairns – Senior Consultant
