TRICS® Community thanked for their user feedback
The TRICS® Consortium would like to thank all those members of the TRICS® Community who have completed and returned their copies of the 2011 TRICS® User Survey. This feedback will be invaluable to us as we look to take the system forward in terms of its development and survey programmes in the months ahead. The User Survey responses will soon be analysed, with a list of potential system developments put to the Consortium for their deliberations.

TRICS® system development takes place over two phases, with system enhancements being introduced in our December and June updates. This successful method of improving the system on a continuous basis has meant that TRICS® has maintained its place as the only national system of trip generation analysis. Look out for details of new system enhancements in our quarterly TRICS® newsletter, which you can also view at this website.

Liverpool named as location for 2012 TRICS® User Meeting

The TRICS® team are pleased to announce that the 2012 TRICS® User Meeting will next year be held in the city of Liverpool for the first time. This continues the TRICS® tradition of taking our annual event for the system's users on the road to various regional locations in the UK. Taking place in the month of June, this annual gathering is the ideal opportunity to hear about developments in the TRICS® project, and to have your own say in the future of the system. It is a highly popular event which is free to member organisations, and continues year-on-year to be an excellent source of feedback for the TRICS® Consortium.

The event, like in 2011, will consist of a series of presentations on topics ranging from system development, research and data collection, good practice in the use of TRICS®, and other associated themes. It is an ideal event for both new and experienced users of the system, and further details on the date and venue for the 2012 meeting will be made available both directly to members and through this newsletter. We also welcome your own ideas on what you'd like to see discussed at next year's event, so please let us know your feedback by contacting one of the TRICS® team (contact details provided within this newsletter).
