The role of contestable processes in advancing sustainability in transport and planning. (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wigan, M. (2010). The role of contestable processes in advancing sustainability in transport and planning.Sustainable transport requires not only solid evidence to support policy and practice, but also to allow this to be examined with a high degree of transparency. Not all technical reports have the supporting evidence (or indeed models) made readily av... Read More about The role of contestable processes in advancing sustainability in transport and planning..

The PCU values of motorcycles in congested flow. (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lee, T., Polak, J. W., Bell, M. G. H., & Wigan, M. (2010). The PCU values of motorcycles in congested flow.PCU (Passenger Car Unit) values are used in traffic management and transportation planning to calculate the flow volume in mixed traffic. However, the impact of motorcycles on road capacity is difficult to measure due to their ability to undertake bo... Read More about The PCU values of motorcycles in congested flow..
The passenger car unit values of motorcycles at the beginning of a green period and in a saturation flow. (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lee, T., Polak, J. W., Bell, M. G. H., & Wigan, M. (2010). The passenger car unit values of motorcycles at the beginning of a green period and in a saturation flow.The aim of this study is to estimate the Passenger Car Unit (PCU) values of motorcycles in two traffic environments: at the beginning of a green period and in a saturation flow. Motorcycles are able to undertake both lane-based and non-lane-based... Read More about The passenger car unit values of motorcycles at the beginning of a green period and in a saturation flow..
Stochastic based models for low volume road (LVR) network management. (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mandiartha, P., Duffield, C. F., Thompson, R. G., & Wigan, M. (2010). Stochastic based models for low volume road (LVR) network management.A major challenge faced by road authorities is to manage road networks within budget constraints and the uncertainty associated in predicting future performance of pavements; this is particularly true for the low volume road network. Road authorities... Read More about Stochastic based models for low volume road (LVR) network management..

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Legacy, C., Sturup, S., Curtis, C., & Wigan, M. (2009). Delivering infrastructure and land use transport integration policy: examining good governance issues in Melbourne and Perth.Governance is a difficult topic to address in the often controversial area of transport and planning. Good governance allows issues associated with balancing different interests, objectives and pressures, to be addressed and solved - but its absence...

Barriers to modelling sustainable transport. (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wigan, M. (2008). Barriers to modelling sustainable transport.Sustainable transport is a malleable and changing concept which needs addressing before the questions of shortfalls in current modelling practice in addressing these issues can reasonably be assessed. It is tempting to take one of the simplest defini... Read More about Barriers to modelling sustainable transport..
