The objective of **Public Transport Service Planning** is to plan the transport development of Rail and Underground and Buses, to meet current and future customer needs. We drive the development of London's public transport network in terms of reliability, journey time, capacity, connectivity, customer satisfaction, access to jobs and services and ultimately economic growth.

Our objectives include ensuring service plans are robust and reliable and meet customers' needs; assessing the impact of service changes, ensuring that TfL maximises the customer benefits from timetable changes, projects and other interventions; providing the modelling, business cases, surveys and other analytical services to ensure that TfL understands the impact of change on customers; collecting data across the transport network; and ensuring TfL understands current and forecast demand for London's bus and rail services.

You’ll support the development of strong business case analysis for changes to policy and long-term plans for Public Transport Service change, in collaboration with scheme sponsors, which support TfL's strategic objectives, and which optimise customer benefit, taking into account value for money, available resources, operational constraints and stakeholder priorities.

You’ll assist in the development of Service Planning analytical and reporting capabilities to better understand operational performance, environmental impact and passenger demand, through development and research of new analytical tools, techniques and performance indicators.

**Key Accountabilities**

Your duties will include, but not be limited to:

- Assist in the development of strategies, policies and service planning for Public Transport in line with the Mayor’s Transport Strategy (MTS), and best practice, guidance and legislation to ensure TfL's strategic objectives are metSupport the provision of Public Transport Service Planning input into TfL wide policy, in particular in relation to revisions to the MTS, transport modelling, appraisal, land use planning and influence funding opportunities to ensure appropriate transport provision

- Maintain appropriate statistical series and access to operational data, and consider requests for new statistics to enable effective data led decision making
- Support senior staff in providing appropriate responses to external enquiries and consultations
- Support input into the development of the TfL Business Plan and budget setting process to ensure cost effective provision
