Details

The toolkits should only be used for schemes where there is likely to be limited routing or variable demand impacts. Where there are expected to be sizeable routing or demand impacts it is recommended that an appropriate model together with TUBA are used to assess the scheme impacts in line with the guidance in TAG.

The toolkit can provide, for a scheme based on the forecast impacts in the scheme opening year, an estimate of the:

1. Present value of benefits (PVB).
2. Present value of costs (PVC)
3. Benefit cost ratio (BCR).
