no way to build capacity so need
to manage network more
efficiently.

Lacks sufficient connectivity,
networks and critical mass to
support growth and investment

14. The study of „The movement of town centre
users in relation to where they park.‟

15. Background
 Walsall borough has a large town centre that serves over 250,000
residents. The town centre is experiencing vast urban regeneration
which is changing the make up of the centre and therefore influencing
changing behaviours of the town centre users.
 In the last five years, the town centre has had a new college, a large
Tesco‟s development, a new Premier Hotel and significant
development of apartments as part of the Waterfront development
along the Walsall canal. Further development in the town centre
includes a flagship Primark store, a new Co-operative store and the
possibility of two cinema developments with accompanying
restaurants.
 We would like to know where vehicle users park their vehicles in
relation to what shops they use in the town centre. Do users move
their vehicles depending on which part of town they are shopping or
do they park in one place to use the whole town centre?

18. Managing transport as a single system
• The transport network is a single system
• Information Management can be the catalyst for
managing it as one
• Can‟t have a single IM system across “transport”
• But Architecture can integrate systems so they become
as one
• (But it won‟t work without portfolio management)
• So everything is actually part of one big business case
• Continued research is essential
• Some of it will go nowhere
• But if we get this right…

19. Managing transport as a single system
• Don‟t close down your options
• Invest in Infrastructure
– even when you aren‟t sure exactly how it will be used
•

•
Create stepping stones
All predictions are wrong
The business case isn‟t what you thought it was
Need to take a few risks
Stick with what you believe
