Our market-leading expertise supports research, recommendations and advice on safety factors. We provide the critical insight and data that contributes to commercial and government sector mobility and transport projects and inform public safety decision-making. Our work ranges from large-scale strategic planning using the Safe System approach to traffic and road safety audit, education, campaigns and training.

Keeping transport users and workers safe as they use any mobility network or means of travel is of paramount importance. VAL’s strategic, evidence-led approach provides a trustworthy foundation for planning and design.

The VAL team provides research and consultancy that helps clients find practical solutions to difficult and vitally important transport safety challenges. We go beyond research to apply the results to project planning and implementation. We work alongside clients to understand commercial pressures and behavioural factors as well as assessing technical performance, so we can identify and tackle the top priority issues for transport safety projects.
