Transport for the North’s User Insight programme of research gathers evidence on transport-related attitudes and behaviours of transport users in the North, to better understand the relationships between transport connectivity, economic and social opportunities, and economic growth, and to strengthen the case for planned transport investments. Phase 3 of the research programme, delivered by SYSTRA, draws on existing data and literature, as well as new data from a quantitative telephone survey and qualitative workshops with Northern businesses, to identify trends in business-related transport in the North of England, and the behaviours and attitudes of Northern businesses regarding commuting to work journeys, other business related travel, transport of goods, low carbon transport solutions, challenges and constraints to travel, and anticipated behaviour changes in response to transport improvements. The study also presents a business typology developed from survey data which reflects differences in businesses’ behaviours and attitudes and their perceived ability to benefit from transport improvements.
