TAS has been monitoring LRT developments since 1991, and our listings, analysis and market projections have been widely quoted by the national press, the BBC and the House of Commons Transport Committee.

There are four workstreams in the RTM project:

• UK Light Rail Systems
• UK Underground Systems
• Bus-Based Rapid Transit
• Rapid Transit Planning and Finance

The last published report was in 2006, but we have continued to monitor developments and more recent data is available through our online subscription service. 

The project also includes operating system reports the UK’s existing LRT systems. Each report provides the available data on:

• Results & performance
• Costs and income
• Balance sheet
• Rolling stock fleet
• Network description
• Patronage analysis
