Connecting People: First Mile, Last Mile Study Bedford 24 th January 2020

How are we defining First Mile / Last Mile? ‘ First-mile last- mile’ is typically used to describe the beginning or end of an individual journey to or from a transport hub or service to the final destination. Within the Heartland the definition of first-mile and last- mile represents a wider choice of both traditional and emerging transport models that enable access to opportunities and needs.

FM/LM interventions could include

Study Recap: Study Approach Study to support EEH Partners to identify and consider appropriate FM/LM solutions, across EEH based on… — People, Place, Connectivity approach rather than traditional approach of mode and movements — We have defined places by population density and connectivity rather than traditional approach of size of place. — We have identified the types of people that live in these places using MOSAIC data. — Propensity for FMLM options mapped to both typologies and personas two tiers of analysis provides more outcome benefits to local authorities

Best Practice Report — Aggregation of FMLM best practice — Behavioural best practice — Mobility hubs (interchange v2.0) — People, place and activity focused — High quality, modular, flexible design — Branding, marketing, inormation and behaviour change — Safety and security — Integration of ticketing and payment — Integration of wider strategy and delivery — Objective to improve access, connectivity and reduce overall VKT — Applicability to EEH across all typologies

Next Steps ▪ Finalise Best Practice Report based on LA Officer comments ▪ Produce a concise user guide for the Tool ▪ Trial tool on current FMLM questions being posed by partners ▪ Complete FM/LM Tool and issue to EEH partner Officers for further testing & use ▪ Issue a final short summary report to complete project ▪ Consider context within Future Mobility (urban and rural) national policy, regional strategy ▪ ‘Pilot’ / accelerate application within emerging marketplace

Let’s change the way we think. Let’s create change.
