Abstract

The aim of this stage of the TRANTEL project was to produce an accessibility model to help ascertain which locations within the Forest of Dean suffer from inaccessibility problems, in relation to the transport network providing access to jobs, training and IT facilities. Once the current pattern of accessibility has been established, the model will then be used to establish the extent to which different transport and IT schemes affect the level of accessibility in different locations, and thus to inform decision-makers on the most appropriate approach to alleviating youth unemployment within the District.
