Overcoming the Inferiority Complex: Demonstrating the Value of Active TransportCatalystian
This paper was to be presented at the VeloCity Global Conference in Adelaide South Australia on 29th March 2014, but circumstances prevented my doing so. It is placed here to put it on the public record and to make it accessible to stakeholders and others interested in the economics of cycling and walking.
Most jurisdictions now have policies supporting greater use of active transport (walking and cycling). Despite this, programs often have difficulty either getting or sustaining the level of funding necessary for achieving the objectives of those policies.
Despite decades of published research and analytical studies of the value of walking, cycling, active transport and travel behaviour change, transport planners are often strangely reluctant to accept that these alternatives to the car perform as well as or better than car-based or public transport investments. It’s almost as if we don’t believe our own rhetoric. This is, paradoxically, reflected in the insistence on monitoring and post-evaluation of many travel behaviour change projects, as though previous evaluations are unreliable. Perhaps ironically, these post evaluations provide a body of research and analysis that consistently shows walking and cycling to be effective and valuable alternatives to driving the private car for sufficient of our daily travel to be at least as worthwhile investing in as more conventional transport projects.
In recent years, the ability to demonstrate the value of active transport has been enhanced by research into the value of congestion-reduction and health effects, which can be more than half the total benefits.
This paper uses recent research to demonstrate that the socio-economic case for investment in active transport has been sufficiently articulated and quantified that a more streamlined model of public sector decision-making is warranted and required. Such a model might be based on a program rather than project approach, with ex-ante appraisal of projects in a program context, and simpler, less costly monitoring of effectiveness and outcomes.

Against the backdrop of increasing user demand, constrained financing, and an aging asset base, it is imperative for governments to make the most of their existing infrastructure assets–specifically, to increase their productivity and longevity. This slideshow recommends ways of doing just that.

1. Making the Economic case for
Investment
Philipp Thiessen, Head of Appraisal scrutiny
2. Overview
• Background
• Existing Evidence base
• What does all that have to do with
Growth?
• Practical demonstration
• Discussion
3. Background
• Cycling Delivery Plan published in October for
consultation
• Ambition for cycling and walking to be delivered
through cooperation of local and central activity
and funding.
• Under LGF major source of funding now under
local control
• Want to ensure capability for making the case is
maximised.
4. Background: Five Case Business Case
The Green Book recommends that business cases are structured
according to its best-practice Five Case Model:
Management
Strategic
Economic
Financial Commercial
Applicable – a
strategic fit
Appropriate –
optimum
Public Value
Attractive – to
supply side and
feasible
Achievable –
can be
successfully
delivered
Affordable – within
the budget
5. The Existing Evidence base
• In support of the plan, the department recently
published three reports on benefits of sustainable
and active travel:
– Value for Money assessment of the large LSTF
schemes
– Value for Money assessment for Cycling
Grants
– Claiming the Health dividend
6. The Existing Evidence base
Other relevant studies include
– Cycling Demonstration Towns
– Sustainable Travel Demonstration Towns
– Sustrans Linking Communities Fund
– TfL’s Cycling Vision
7. The Existing Evidence base
Typical BCR’s from these studies
Sustainable Travel Towns 4.5:1 Decongestion benefits only
Cycling Demonstration Towns 2.59:1 Health benefits only
Local Sustainable Transport Fund 5.1:1 Based on 12 large schemes business
cases
Cycling Ambition Grants 5.5:1 Based on business cases for 12 funded
schemes
Linking Communities Fund 10:1 Based on eight representative schemes
Literature Review 5.6:1 Average BCR for UK case studies,
overall average 6.3:1
Transport for London Cycling Vision 2.9:1 Very large programme - conservative
BCR
8. What do those BCRs do for Growth?
Benefit Cost ratios represent the quantifiable transport benefits
per pound invested
Time Savings
Health
Journey Quality
Air Pollution
Reliability
9. What do those BCRs do for Growth?
E.g. LSTF – over 80% are time and
operating costs for road users – from
mode shift and decongestion –
At least half of those are time savings
to business – staff and goods spend
less time stuck in traffic.
Road safety – less time loss from
absenteeism, less disruption from
clear up…
10. What do those BCRs do for Growth?
E.g. Cycling ambition grants – around
60% are physical fitness benefits.
These are the benefits of reduced
premature mortality.
At least 30% of the value is from
avoiding the loss of productive output
that occurs when employees die
prematurely.
Further benefits to business are
reduced absenteeism, higher staff
productivity, motivation and retention.
11. What do those BCRs do for Growth?
Other growth impacts:
Air quality – in areas of exceedances
Journey Quality – more satisfied workforce – esp
highly skilled often demand good travel facilities
General well-being: growth is ultimately a means to the end
of well-being – so why discount this?
In summary: the traditional transport appraisal accounts for
the majority of economic impacts – even if it does not
present jobs and GVA…
12. Working through an example
Based on the worked example in WebTAG A5.1 Active
Mode Appraisal…
13. Conclusion
These three papers reinforce the existing evidence that sustainable and
active transport investment can have very high value for money.
Local Authorities should refer to this when making their case for
investment to local decision makers.
