KonSULT: Generating Packages of Measures

• KonSULT is a web based knowledgebase developed at the University of Leeds

http://www.konsult.leeds.ac.uk• Assesses potential contribution of over 40 transport

and land use policy instruments, to achieving a range of objectives/ addressing problems

• Uses both a first principles assessment and review of case studies

• Provides information about previous applications of selected instruments

Page 6: Generating Strategic Options and Exploring Distributional Impacts Final workshop of the DISTILLATE programme Great Minster House, London Tuesday 22 nd.

KonSULT Developing Option Generation

Component

• The option generation tool has been developed to allow users to interrogate the information within the KonSULT database and develop packages of policy instruments

• Users define their local circumstances and requirements, and the software then scores instruments in terms of their suitability – in two steps:

Page 7: Generating Strategic Options and Exploring Distributional Impacts Final workshop of the DISTILLATE programme Great Minster House, London Tuesday 22 nd.

Step 1

Uses information within KonSULT to assess each policy instrument, based on the criteria supplied by the user. Scores and then ranks each one. Accessible at:

http://www.konsult.leeds.ac.uk/new/private/level2/filter.php

Step 2

Takes data from Step 1 and adds information on synergy or barriers to create potential packages of pairs of instruments.

Input Criteria for Step 1

Page 9: Generating Strategic Options and Exploring Distributional Impacts Final workshop of the DISTILLATE programme Great Minster House, London Tuesday 22 nd.

Example Output Step 1

Page 10: Generating Strategic Options and Exploring Distributional Impacts Final workshop of the DISTILLATE programme Great Minster House, London Tuesday 22 nd.

Step 2 (Packages)

• .xls spreadsheet model

• Uses output from step 1• Individual can select / unselect the indicators

to be included in packages • It creates a ranking of pairs of indicators using

the combined score of the two policy instruments from step 1 and then modifies this score using either the synergy or barrier matrices

Example Output Step 2

Accessibility Planning Options

Development of several techniques:

• To assist with problem diagnosis as well as option identification

• Some designed for use with local residents

• Others designed for application by sector professionals

• Includes consideration of distributional impacts

Solutions: Known Options

Walking and Street Environment

Problems Solution 1 Solution 2 Solution 3Pavements not suitable for buggies and wheelchairs (too narrow or pavement parking)

Widen footways Ban pavement parking and enforce Designate priority walking routes, with better physical conditions, maintenance and enforcement

Cars drive too quickly on residential streets

Introduce physical speed reduction measures: speed humps, chicanes

Use of regulations: 20 mph speed limits, give way at junctions, park on alternate sides of street

Enforcement of speed limits

Unsafe crossing places at junctions

Provide informal crossing facilities: refuges, speed tables

Provide zebra, pelican or puffin crossings

Unsafe crossing places at bus stops/stations

Provide informal crossing facilities: refuges, speed tables

Provide zebra, pelican or puffin crossings

Resite bus stops to safer locations

Personal security concerns – poor lighting

Improve lighting levels and colour Remove potential hiding places and improve sight lines

Personal security concerns – groups hanging around

Provide community wardens Improve leisure facilities for young people

School sessions, to encourage more responsible behaviour

Page 20: Generating Strategic Options and Exploring Distributional Impacts Final workshop of the DISTILLATE programme Great Minster House, London Tuesday 22 nd.

Solutions: More Open Options

Re-DEFINE types of services provided?– Align more closely to customer needs

Re-LOCATE points of service delivery?– Become closer to customers/users

Re-TIME patterns of service delivery?– Align with customer timing needs

Re-FRESH services?– To improve quality

CO-OPERATE with other agencies?– ‘Joined-up’, seamless service delivery, for

better efficiency and effectiveness

Distributional Impacts

• For different groups of people

• For different residential locations/public transport service patterns

• For different sector agencies

Distributional Impacts: Agencies

• Sectors work to tightly drawn targets, or profit seeking criteria

• Efficiency savings are sometimes based on externalising internal costs

• So, changes in service delivery patterns in one sector can have (negative) impacts on others

Page 26: Generating Strategic Options and Exploring Distributional Impacts Final workshop of the DISTILLATE programme Great Minster House, London Tuesday 22 nd.

Cross-sector Impacts

Close School:

Consolidate Sites

• Better educational provision

• Efficiency savings

• Larger numbers of pupils at one site

• Fewer walk or cycle

• More go by car

• More go by bus/train

• Greater risk of bullying

• Intimidation in surrounding streets

• Greater risk of bullying

• Intimidation in surrounding streets

• Further travel distances for some

• Loss of after-school activities at closed site

• Reduced physical exercise

• More traffic around school:- congestion- accidents

• More pupils on buses:-crowding- intimidation

• Fewer social/ leisure activities

• Greater anti-social behaviour
