Next steps

Our research has identified that, although the existing statistics on Transport Accessibility do go some way to meeting users’ needs, there is clearly more that could be done. Our recommendations outline how we expect the producers of the statistics, and the wider Government Statistical Service, to work to develop the statistics so that they address the issues outlined.

It will be possible for producers to implements some of the recommendations in this report relatively quickly however, some of the statistics covered by the recommendations in this report are annual surveys with significant time lags. This means that some of the new developments and changes to production processes cannot not be achieved immediately. We will support statistics producers in meeting our recommendations and continue to monitor their approach to meeting user needs.
