Derek Halden Transport Consultancy has been appointed by the Scottish Office
to review safer routes to school schemes in Scotland with a view to
identifying best practice. This parallels the equivalent study in England
being carried out by Oscar Faber and we will be considering how the different
administrative arrangements for transport, education and health in Scotland
affect integrated planning for school travel decisions.
During the first stage of our work we have already identified about 100 active
Scottish schemes which we will be investigating in detail. However we would
also be pleased to hear from anybody who is aware of any particularly
innovative or interesting ideas for inclusion in our best practice guidance,
including suggestions about effective administration and management of such
schemes.
Thanks
Derek Halden
