Who we are

Wedderburn Transport Planning provides independent and evidence-based consultancy services in transport planning and pedestrian movement analysis. We undertake specialist pedestrian movement analysis studies for masterplanning projects at all scales, supporting our clients to create people-friendly, walkable and diverse places.

Our philosophy

Transport planning starts with people and not with the vehicles they use. The starting point is an understanding of people’s needs and motivations, and applying an equitable approach to the analysis of people movement at different scales and by different transport modes. Planning for safe and healthy mobility requires a door-to-door approach, considering all parts of the journeys we make. This principle of multi-modality only becomes meaningful when it transcends all aspects of the way we plan the built environment and the assessment frameworks we use to evaluate transport investment.

"A short walk is the ultimate measure of success of transport planning​"

Our philosophy

Successful transport planning requires an understanding of connectivity at a range of scales. The most economically successful cities require international connectivity and high quality regional transit, but firms also value the ability to do business with others located a short walk away. Communities all over the world welcome access to opportunities, but what makes neighbourhoods special or rewarding is often local proximity and the opportunity for spontaneous encounters.
