Fighting climate change

We help our customers to address concerns such as carbon reduction, air quality, resource management, noise reduction and climate change adaptation. The TRL team has the experience to translate government objectives and messages into meaningful, achievable solutions for the real world.

Making connections between industry and government

We often act as a broker to promote new government measures, increasing the chances of a sustained impact, when the public sector needs specialist support to engage with industry organisations. From the other viewpoint, we work to advise the government on industry’s real worldviews and experiences. We offer independent, unbiased consultancy services and innovative ideas.

Balanced and independent policy research

Our customers value our insights from independent policy research into sustainable transport. Our work spans all modes, covering movement of people and goods and the impact on efficiency, economy and sustainability.

From strategy and research to implementation

At TRL we offer support at every stage of the sustainable development process. Our experience includes advising on strategies for the future – maximising efficiency, economy, safety and sustainability. We research and recommend ways to reduce fuel consumption, support low emission vehicles, and reduce the environmental and social impacts of constructing, maintaining and operating transport infrastructure.

Infrastructure and technology expertise

We have deep and specialised knowledge of a wealth of established, current and future approaches and technologies. We understand the challenges and benefits of future fuel, vehicle and infrastructure technology and can recommend mitigating strategies, such as low emission and clean air zones or low carbon materials.
Our sustainability work is wide-ranging, with expertise in cycle and pedestrian friendly environments, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems, urban interchanges, air quality and emissions measurement, freight management, construction materials and techniques, recycling and reuse of materials and life cycle analysis.

Covid-19 recovery

As a fully hybrid organization, we were well-equipped to adapt to the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our robust digital infrastructure and remote work capabilities enabled many of our projects to continue seamlessly during the height of the crisis.

Throughout the pandemic, we remained steadfast in our commitment to supporting our clients and stakeholders. Our hybrid model allowed us to maintain a high level of productivity while prioritizing the health and safety of our employees. We leveraged virtual collaboration tools, online training platforms, and secure remote access to ensure continuity of service delivery.

Additionally, we proactively implemented measures to support our workforce during these unprecedented times. This included providing mental health resources, flexible work arrangements, and ongoing communication to foster a sense of community and well-being among our team members.

As we navigated the challenges of the pandemic, we also seized opportunities to innovate and adapt our offerings to meet evolving market demands. Our cross-functional teams worked tirelessly to develop new solutions and services tailored to the unique needs of our clients during the recovery phase.

Tackling economic inequality

TRL and our partners are committed to tackling inequality in the workforce so that our work for you reflects the needs of everyone, not only select groups. We will embed this in our approach to this
framework and how we lead the consortium. We have chosen partners we have worked with before to ensure that we are confident in how they are tackling inequality.

• TRL is a UK ‘A-rated’ sponsor for work visas, allowing us to employ diverse candidates from around the world.
• We offer all our roles on a flexible basis, whether that is location, part-time, flexible and condensed hours to meet the needs of working parents and carers. This means we can provide
a resilient and flexible team regardless of life circumstances. This approach allowed the majority of our projects to continue without interruption through the COVID-19 pandemic.

• We are a corporate member of Women in Transport (WiT) and through our involvement we aim to actively support gender diversity across the Transport sector by championing the work of
TRL’s female consultants. An example is WiT industry event at one of our locations in January 2023. We are actively diversifying our board and executive team, bringing in three new female directors in the last 12 months.
• TRL are an accredited Living Wage Employer ensuring our staff and those of our contractors providing services are paid the Real Living Wage. This includes consortium partners on this framework. We externally benchmark pay to ensure we pay a competitive rate for all our roles, we also monitor equal pay & pay gaps internally and report this to the wider company.

Equal opportunity

Our mission of accessible transport for everyone is mirrored in how we recruit our staff. We are a Disability Confident recognised organisation and encourage applicants from all backgrounds by
advertising our roles on a wide range of platforms including the “DWP find a job”. TRL is committed to continuing to close the disability employment gap, 6% of our employee base is disabled which is 1.5% above the Infrastructure Industry 2022 average.
We believe that by continuously working to increase representation of disabled people our team can provide greater organisational understanding of the barriers and challenges for disabled transport
users, which is vital to deliver wider social value through this framework. As a consortium of consultants and researchers we aim to provide wider social value through the positive influence and vision that our projects provide, this includes addressing the disability employment gap. An example is TRL’s recent members of the innovation community at our smart mobility Living lab Location on the topic of remote operation of vehicles which where it was
discussed having the potential to open construction and freight jobs to a wider range of people and increase the number of disabled people in many industries from agriculture to mining.
Our consortium includes the Research institute for Disabled Consumers (RiDC) to provide a deliberate focus on the importance of disabled voices in decision making and research, and in attracting more disabled people to the transport industry. Through our combined offering we will strengthen the social value our work on this framework can provide to both disabled employees within our consortium and disabled transport users more widely.

Wellbeing

TRL is a knowledge-based business and our staff are at the heart of what we do, this means their physical and mental wellbeing is central to our mission.

Our consortium has been bought together on a principle of openness and transparency, which we believe allows us to deliver greater social value as a whole and better support health and wellbeing
conversations which rely on an open and collaborative environment.
This transparency is embedded in how TRL is run, we have an elected ACAS trained ‘staff council’ who meet monthly with the CEO and HR director to discuss staff morale, wellbeing and inclusion.
The head of our Employee council sits on the company board as a non-executive director. This means that staff wellbeing is visible at all levels of our organisation, and the staff have an independent champion at board level.
Actions we are taking to improve health and wellbeing:
• In response to the current cost of living crisis we are providing personal financial wellbeing advice to all our staff.
• We provide a company paid healthcare Cash plan which allows our staff to claim for routine dental treatment, spectacles, prescription charges, physio and other complementary therapies.
• We have committed to training up to 12 Mental Health First Aiders in the next 3 months to better support our teams and managers.
• All our staff have access to a professional Employee Assistance Programme which offers confidential support for physical & mental health, emotional wellbeing, legal and financial advice, bereavement counselling etc.
• Our staff have access to a GP via the telephone 24/7 and access on-line during working hours 7 days a week.
• We have access to professional occupational health support for all our staff.
