About
David Banister is Professor of Transport Studies at the School of Geography and the Environment (SoGE) and Director of the Transport Studies Unit. He is a Fellow of St Anne's College. During 2009-2010 he was also Acting Director of the Environmental Change Institute in SoGE. Until 2006, he was Professor of Transport Planning at University College London. He has been Research Fellow at the Warren Centre in the University of Sydney (2001-2002) on the Sustainable Transport for a Sustainable City project and was Visiting VSB Professor at the Tinbergen Institute in Amsterdam (1994-1997). He was a visiting Professor at the University of Bodenkultur in Vienna in 2007. He is currently the first Benelux BIVET-GIBET Transport Chair (2012-2013).
Current Research
Prof. Banister has authored and edited 23 books that summarise his own research and some of the international projects that he has been involved with. He has also authored (or coauthored) more than 200 papers in international refereed journals, together with a similar number of other papers in journals or as contributions to books. Other outputs include research monographs (over 50), and reports for research sponsors (over 100). Over the period 2001-2013, over 120 papers have been presented at major national and international conferences.
He has an established international reputation in transport research, in particular the contribution that the social sciences can make to the analysis of transport. His current research has concentrated on five main areas:
This has been undertaken in the context of sustainable urban development and transport. The perspective taken is a long term one (2030+), and it explores the future of cities and how transport can contribute to that future. Novel methods of modified backcasting have been used to develop visions of desirable city futures, together with the analysis of policy packages and paths to move towards those futures. Two simulation models have been developed, one for role playing (TC-SIM) and the other to use multi-criteria assessment methods (INTRASIM).
This includes analysis of pricing and planning interventions to achieve reductions in trip distances, car use and emissions. Much of this research is related to city centre options, including raising densities, settlement size thresholds, mixed use developments, and local neighbourhood design issues. The key concern here is to provide local opportunities and to improve accessibility so that the quality of life in cities can be improved.
This research has acted as an integrating part of the research, as it examines the means by which the carbon and energy costs of transport can be quantified and used in evaluation. It also covers the energy consumption patterns of different settlement types and their associated travel demand patterns.
This research has tackled the important issue of measuring the non transport benefits of transport investments. Methodologies have been developed to identify additionality or new activity (employment, inward investment, land and property value uplift) resulting from transport investments, and this has involved the use of time series data and GIS mapping techniques.
