The tables below provide the latest recommended values of time for application in most standard transport appraisals (all expressed in average 2002 values and prices).
The use of mode specific values could potentially increase the risk of not accounting for people who switch between modes. Where the number of people switching modes is high relative to the number of existing users it may be inappropriate to use the values below. Under these circumstances the practitioner should contact Transport Scotland for advice.
