Public transport has a major impact on the way that urban areas work, and the patterns of development within them. It is becoming widely recognised that major new investment in public transport is required, both to support the economy and to ensure that our cities, towns and villages have sustainable futures.

Public transport can only work effectively if it is convenient, safe, efficient and affordable - a system of first choice for the community it is intended to serve. Cass Associates has extensive and very successful experience in the public transport field in the bus, rail and air sectors. This ranges from planning, through masterplanning, urban design, and the integration of public transport into major developments, to the design individual facilities.
