Process diverse types of data related to transport planning

In this paper, you are required to process different types of data related to transport planning and conduct a statistical analysis using real data on a transport-related topic. Furthermore, you are also asked to develop transport planning and impact analysis scenarios, present major assumptions and conduct a cost-benefit analysis. Finally, you are asked to present understanding concepts relating to life-cycle analysis, estimation of salvage values, discounting and other related concepts in your report.

Course Aims

This course will supplement the material covered in the Transport Planning Methods course with a series of in-lab hands-on specialised software training.

Specific course aims are to:

Introduce cost-benefits analysis, specialised transport planning (CUBE) and statistics program (R);

Provide examples of real-world transport planning problems and state-of-art practitioner approaches to addressing often-encountered transport analysis problems.

Intended Learning Outcomes of Course

By the end of this course students will be able to:

1. Process diverse types of data related to transport planning;

2. Conduct a statistical analysis using real data on a transport-related topic and write a concise description of the main findings to communicate to a non-technical audience;

3. Develop transport planning and impact analysis scenarios, present major assumptions and write a concise description of the main findings;

4. Conduct a cost-benefit analysis and present understanding concepts relating to life-cycle analysis, estimation of salvage values, discounting and other related concepts.
