Description:

The aim of this research was to gain a quantified understanding of business location, particularly the role of transport within this, and implement that understanding within a model that can be used for forecasting the number of jobs in each area of the country. A substantial part of the project was devoted to assembling time series data for the two case study areas, Milton Keynes and South and West Yorkshire.
