Transport Economists’ Group
Formed in 1973, the Group provides a forum for people involved in transport economics to meet regularly and discuss matters of mutual interest. Membership is open to both economists working in transport and all others whose work is connected with transport economics. The aim of the Group is to improve the quality of transport management, planning and decision making by promoting lectures, discussions and publications related to the economics of transport and of the environment within which the industry functions.

Kieran Arter of Arup will speak on “Integrated network management digital twin: economic benefits analysis”
Kieran Arter is an Associate at Arup with over 20 years of experience as a transport economist. In this talk, Kieran will discuss a study that Arup led for the Department for Transport, analysing the potential value of economic benefits that could be delivered by an ‘integrated network management digital twin’ in the transport sector. He will outline the approach that was used to identify a set of use cases, the method for estimating benefits with an approach consistent with Transport Analysis Guidance (TAG), and the results of the analysis.
