SECTION II: OBJECT OF THE CONTRACT

II.1) DESCRIPTION
II.1.1) Title attributed to contract by the contracting authority (as stated in the original notice) UK-St Leonards-on-Sea: Department for Transport: Evaluation of the Sustainable Travel City Programme
II.1.2) Short description of the contract or purchase(s) (as stated in the original notice) The Department for Transport (DfT) wishes to commission an evaluation of the recently announced Sustainable Travel City programme which builds on the Sustainable Travel Demonstration Towns and will provide funding for one or two Sustainable Travel Cities to implement an intensive and thorough programme of Smarter Choice measures and supporting infrastructure to encourage a shift towards more sustainable travel behaviour. (http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/sustainable/smarterchoices/) The evaluation of the Sustainable Travel City programme will provide the Department with robust evidence about the impacts of city-wide investment in sustainable travel measures including but not limited to: travel behaviour change (mode /vehicle choice and destination); physical activity; traffic congestion benefits; accessibility; quality of life; reduction in carbon emissions; safety and economic impacts. As one of the objectives of the programme is to demonstrate that the principles of sustainable travel can be successfully adapted to an existing large-scale urban development it is important that the evaluation seeks to fully understand why and under what conditions the impacts occurred. Therefore, tendering organisations will be asked to consider the feasibility of delivering a Theory of Change evaluation approach.
