Transport data analytics and intelligence
Global Road Links gathers and validates data and indicators for the transport sector globally – at country, city and regional level. We draw data from international sources of statistics to respond to specific topics of interest to support investment decisions, policy development or to answer research questions. Themes include: transport infrastructure networks, traffic volumes and composition, road accidents, vehicle ownership trends, CO2 and other Greenhouse Gas emissions, energy consumption and fuel use, among other user data categories. GRL’s unique competence lies in combining data from multiple sources into meaningful intelligence.
In an era of accelerated globalisation and digitalisation, Global Road Links assists organisations in the transport sector to improve knowledge creation, sharing and innovation capabilities. We develop and implement effective knowledge management and communication strategies in close consultation with our clients, aimed at enhancing the discovery of their knowledge and feeding into effective transport advocacy campaigns.

Our Policy and Institutional Assessment services assess the quality of the current policy and institutional framework to show how conducive the framework is to fostering poverty reduction, sustainable growth, greening the economy and the effective use of investment. Each policy aspect of Transport, such as for example transport planning frameworks, mobility pricing, environmental policies, vehicle policies, investment frameworks and inclusiveness, is considered in the light of its impact on set policy objectives.
Our road financing and Public Private Partnership advisory services seek a balanced share of returns between the public and private sectors, avoiding excessive public sector risk taking and moral hazard from the private sector and ensuring affordability from a user's perspective. In our assessments we include policy trade-offs, for example balancing financial and social gains of projects, or balancing protective versus restrictive regulations to boost investments.
