Tra 01 - Transport assessment and travel plan

Public Transport Access Index (PTAI) – Buildings in Greater London - KBCN1149

For projects in Greater London, the Public Transport Access Index (PTAI) should be derived directly from the TfL WebCAT platform. When this tool is used, the BREEAM Tra 01/02 PTAI/AI calculation is not required. Requirements:

1. Baseline: Assessors must use the PTAL version that is current at the time the Transport Assessment is undertaken (Concept Design).
2. Post-Construction Consistency: Once the design-stage PTAI is established, it does not need to be updated at the Post-Construction stage, even if the local transport network or WebCAT data has changed in the interim.
3. Location: Access data via TfL WebCAT.
4. Procedure: Follow the below technical guide to extract the specific Accessibility Index (AI) value from the WebCAT CSV export (Cell G3) for entry into the BREEAM Platform.
