## Description

Local air quality is recognised as a significant public health issue, with transport a major contributor to emissions of harmful pollutants\. While overall rail emissions may be relatively minor, these can be significant locally\. RSSB has established an Air Quality Steering Group comprising of members from across the rail industry and is in the process of developing a Rail Air Quality Strategy\. The strategy will be launched in Spring 2020 and will be underpinned by the Clean Air Research Programme \(CLEAR\)\. This project is expected to use compatible data and techniques as RSSB's previous emissions factor project \(RSSB2769 - AQ0001a\)\) and is split into three work packages\. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises \(SMEs\)\. However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement\.
