Campaigns & Policy
Current TCPA Projects
Drawing on the expertise of its trustees, policy council members and staff team, the TCPA continues to develop inovative policy solutions to some of the most challenging issues and problems facing us today, ranging from the need for more and better homes in sustainable communities well served by high quality public transport, to ensuring the plannning system lives up to its potential as key mechanism in tackling climate change.
Some of the main areas of current activity are set out below. If you don't see what you are looking for or if you would like to find out how you can become involved in TCPA policy-making then please contact the Policy and Projects Manager Graham Nickson.
