This Executive Summary presents a selection of key findings from a five-year research study of Decision-Making in the Planning, Appraisal and Delivery of Mega Transport Projects (MTPs): Lessons for Decision-makers (OMEGA 2 Study) carried out at University College London.. For the purposes of this research, MTPs are defined as land-based transport infrastructure investments within and connecting major urban areas and metropolitan regions in the form of bridges, tunnels, road and rail links, or combinations of these. The OMEGA Centre contends that judgements of project ‘success’ also require consideration of a wider range of matters including: the projects’ ability to meet objectives that emerge over time and which ultimately impact on project outcomes; changing societal, political and environmental values and priorities that evolve over time which further alter expectations of MTPs; changing ‘visions’ among different stakeholders involved in MTP development; and different values, priorities and expectations that prevail in different development and cultural contexts.
