The Transport Committee has published an invite for written evidence on the transport plans for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, with a view to taking oral evidence in March.
 
In June 2011 the Olympics Delivery Authority (ODA) published the latest edition of their Transport Plan for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, presenting an overview of the proposed transport arrangements for the games.
 
The Committee is particularly interested in:
 
•         The impact on the road network resulting from Games Lanes and the Olympic Route Network (ORN)
•         Measures taken to manage travel demand during the Games
•         The impact on public transport, including aviation, of increased demand during the Games
•         The effects of travel disruption for businesses and services
•         Delivery of a transport legacy following the Games
 
The Transport Committee previously reported on the ODA’s Draft Transport Plan in 2007 (Transport for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games: The Draft Transport Plan, HC 199).
 
CIHT will be looking to produce a submission to this call for evidence. If you are interested in being involved or would like more details on what CIHT are proposing, please contact e: technical@ciht.org.uk
