This week we are celebrating Jon Parker’s career with ITP, to mark his departure later in April. Over the last 25 years, Jon has fulfilled a host of different roles and responsibilities within the organisation, and has worked on a variety of innovative projects with clients.

Jon’s back catalogue of career ‘greatest hits’ includes significant, pioneering behaviour change research studies for the Department for Transport (DfT) (on car sharing, car clubs, and personalised travel planning); alongside expert advice on the evaluation of national travel to school initiatives and the effective delivery of travel plans through the planning process. His contribution was recognised in 2015 when he was presented with the UK Smarter Travel Professional of the Year Award, and he has positively influenced the approaches and careers of many colleagues in his time at ITP.

Neil Taylor, Advisory Group Director at ITP commented: “We all wish Jon every success in his future endeavours. We look forward to continuing to collaborate with him on projects and research opportunities as he embarks on passion projects within the domains of transport planning and business coaching and mentoring.”
