A new vacancy has become available for a Senior Research Fellow to join us at the Transport Research Institute.  Working closely with our Director of TRI, Tom Rye, you will play a key role in delivering part of the EU Horizon 2020 project – Park4SUMP.  Park4SUMP is about managing car parking in the framework of Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans.

You will conduct research on existing parking management policies and systems around the EU whilst developing guidance on parking in SUMPs. You will be responsible for managing and maintaining relationships between Ministries and the local authorities, including delivering training materials on parking in SUMPs to professionals from these location authorities (in particular southern and eastern Europe).
