Furthering Less Congestion by creating Opportunities for more Walking and cycling (FLOW)

Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2018,

FLOW sees a need for a paradigm shift wherein non-motorised transport (often seen from a transport policy perspective simply as a nice “extra”) is placed on an equal footing with motorised modes with regard to urban congestion. To do this, FLOW will create a link between (currently poorly-connected) walking and cycling and congestion by developing a user-friendly methodology for evaluating the abi...
