Details

The Department for Transport (DfT) receives requests for advice on the treatment of new local development assumptions for local areas. Typically, people are interested in ensuring that some new (or planned) housing scheme, retail development, factory or similar is included when forecasting trip ends with the use of the National Trip End Model (NTEM) datasets.

The purpose of this guidance is to clarify how such local knowledge can be captured in analysis and how this analysis should be presented in business cases.
