Welcome to the second edition of the Transport and Traffic Software Directory from Local Transport Today. There was a terrific response to the first edition and both print and online versions are being regularly used and referred to by transport professionals around the world. The biggest change to this addition is the introduction of two newly researched sections. The first covers Passenger Transport software and the second is an introduction to some for the Urban Design programs which are of growing interest to transport practitioners. As with any directory of this nature it is something of a ‘work in progress’.
