Paul led the economic appraisal of the City Centre to Mangere (Airport) Light Rail (CC2MLRT). That included the traditional user benefits but added several more innovative ways to maximise value. Paul’s work has been used to update the NZTA Economic Evaluation Manual to include these wider economic benefits.

I have worked with Ellie, Alex and the Volterra team several times over the years. They are professional, thorough and efficient, producing quality work which clearly and robustly estimates economic impacts. Their work was vital in us promoting the redevelopment of Olympia London, and ultimately securing planning permission.

Overall the baseline report is such a positive initial step towards building good health and wellbeing into the regeneration of the area. The report itself demonstrates proper consideration of the wider determinants of health, the local evidence, and is the first example I've seen of a Health Impact Assessment approach being undertaken in a meaningful way.
