stepchange

Project Summary

The stepchange project began in 2003 and aimed to develop and deliver good practice for achieving travel behaviour change for Scotland. It was designed to introduce new transport interventions and to roll out such approaches to local authorities and other interested parties across Scotland.

The programme introduced people to a range of measures known as demand management that can play an important role in tackling the growing problem of congestion. In its first two years, the stepchange programme consisted of eight projects in various locations around Scotland. This helped to develop, test and refine the method. The range of resource material and personalised travel planning offered to participating individuals was developed through the feedback given by participants in the various projects.
