Transport Statistics Great Britain 2004
The 30th edition of this annual publication contains a wide range of transport statistics which gives a comprehensive picture of transport use in Britain. It includes data tables relating to: general and cross modal transport; aviation; energy and the environment; freight; maritime transport; public transport, including rail, tube, bus and coaches; roads network and traffic; transport accidents and casualties; motor vehicles and goods vehicles; and international comparisons.
The Green Book
This new edition incorporates revised guidance from H.M Treasury which is designed to promote efficient policy development and resource allocation across government through the use of a thorough, long-term and analytically robust approach to the appraisal and evaluation of public service projects before significant funds are committed. It is the first edition to have been aided by a consultation process in order to ensure the guidance is clearer and more closely tailored to suit the needs of users.
The Highway Code
This publication contains official guidance on correct road usage, applicable to all road users. Many of the rules of the Code are legal requirements and failure to comply with them constitutes a criminal offence. It provides information for drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists and horse riders, including instructions concerning animals, driving in adverse weather conditions, motorway driving, parking, breakdowns and accidents, road works and railway level crossings, signals and traffic signs, road and vehicle markings, vehicle maintenance safety and security, licence requirements and documentation, and first aid on the road. This updated edition also covers recent changes in legislation (2004), including regulations on the use of mobile phones. ISBN 0115526986 supersedes the 2004 revised ed. (ISBN 0115524495). Please note that ISBN 0115526986 does NOT include any new content and will not be sent to TSO Select or standing order customers who have already received ISBN 0115524495.
The Future of Transport
Building on the policy measures in the 10 Year Plan for Transport (ISBN 1851124136) published in July 2000, this White Paper considers factors which are likely to shape the transport system over the next 30 years, and sets out the Government's strategy to address these issues, including an outline of expenditure plans to 2015. The Government's three stated themes, upon which the strategy is built, are: sustained investment over the long term, improvements in transport management, and planning ahead. Issues discussed include: managing the increasing demand for travel and the legacy of under-investment in transport infrastructure; measures to improve the road network, including promoting a pub...
Safety at Street Works and Road Works
This publication sets out the statutory requirements for signing, lighting, and guarding at street works and road works. This is the core reference manual for utility companies, local authorities, street work contractors and others whose day-to-day business involves street works (works by statutory undertakers and other utility companies etc) and road works (works to maintain or repair road infrastructure). The code, which covers all of the UK and includes national variations, is now compulsory for highway/road authorities in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. It applies to all single carriageway roads and dual carriageways with a speed limit of 40 mph or less. The code is now divided into...
Are Trams Socialist?
Transport is key to our daily lives. The transport system is essential to ensure the movement of people and goods, and most of us will use the roads or public transport every day. Vast sums are tied up in it and are spent on trying to resolve the problems of congestion and delays. And yet it is a most neglected field of politics. Britain has never had a coherent transport policy. Transport ministers are regarded as minnows compared with their ‘big beast’ colleagues in other ministries. Successive governments have barely attempted to get to grips with the challenge of getting people around efficiently and safely while limiting the environmental damage caused by transport. In this entertai...
Know your traffic signs
Traffic signs play a vital role in directing, informing and controlling road users' behaviour in an effort to make the roads as safe as possible for everyone. A knowledge of traffic signs is there essential, not just for new drivers or riders needing to pass their theory test, but for all road users, including experienced professional drivers. This fully updated edition of the publication supersedes the previous 4th edition (1995, ISBN 09780115516122) and contains information designed to illustrate and explain the vast majority of traffic signs the road user is likely to encounter.

Strengthening local delivery
This draft Local Transport Bill (which comes in 4 volumes: Vol. 1: A consultation; Vol. 2: The draft Bill; Vol. 3: Explantory notes; Vol. 4: Regulatory impact assessments), seeks consultation on a series of proposals to tackle congestion and improve public transport in England and Wales, with some smaller measures applying across Great Britain. It sets out an agenda to empower local authorities to develop local solutions to local transport challenges, for example improving the quality of local bus services, by building on the ideas outlined in the "Putting Passengers First" document.
