This Network extends the December 2010, UK Research Councils Ideas Factory "Transport Grand Challenge: Travel behaviour, habits and practice". The Ideas Factory drew attention to the significant contribution that the transport sector makes toward the production of CO2, and whilst it is recognised that improvements in vehicle technologies and fuel choices will reduce emissions, the travel choices of the individual remain complex and entrenched in habit. Consequently the five-day Sandpit focused upon the determinants and incentives for changing travel behaviour, habits and practice in order to better understand how we can move toward increased use of lower carbon transport. The Department for Transport paper: Low carbon transport: A greener future (2009), indentified the apparent willingness for the public to change their travel behaviours but a resistance for them to actual implement them. People's decision-making toward travel is complex and irrational, making it difficult to shift patterns away from excessive use of the car, in favour for more cost effective, sustainable and at times quicker methods of transport. Reasons are complex, but it is evident that new technologies do not always offer the best solution, and may (in some cases) exacerbate problems. The Sandpit process sought to unpack the habits and pressures upon individuals, families and businesses that inhibit the opportunity to make better choices about travel. The proposed three and half year Network will sustain the intellectual synergy that was developed through the five day Sandpit, and offer a framework in which the project partners can sustain communication, explore new ideas, share good practice and develop means of disseminating knowledge to the public, industry and affect policy. The funding will support two primary methods of sustaining and developing the group: annual 2-day workshops/meetings for project partners to get together, and a digital network platform that can integrate the activities of the four funded projects, as well as disseminate progress and findings to the world.

这一网络延伸了2010年12月，英国研究理事会创意工厂“交通大挑战：旅行行为、习惯和实践”。创意工厂提醒人们注意运输部门对二氧化碳排放的重大贡献，虽然人们认识到车辆技术和燃料选择的改进将减少排放，但个人的出行选择仍然复杂且根深蒂固。因此，为期五天的沙坑集中在改变旅行行为、习惯和做法的决定因素和激励因素上，以便更好地了解我们如何才能更多地使用低碳交通工具。交通部的论文：低碳交通：一个更绿色的未来(2009年)，确定了公众显然愿意改变他们的出行行为，但他们实际实施这些行为的阻力。人们对出行的决策是复杂和非理性的，这使得人们很难改变过度使用汽车的模式，转而使用更具成本效益、更可持续、有时甚至更快的交通方式。原因很复杂，但很明显，新技术并不总是提供最佳解决方案，而且可能(在某些情况下)加剧问题。沙坑程序试图解开个人、家庭和企业的习惯和压力，这些习惯和压力阻碍了人们在旅行方面做出更好选择的机会。拟议的三年半网络将维持通过五天沙坑形成的智力协同作用，并提供一个框架，使项目合作伙伴能够保持沟通，探索新想法，分享良好做法，并制定向公众、行业和影响政策传播知识的手段。这笔资金将支持维持和发展该小组的两种主要方法：每年两天的讲习班/会议，让项目伙伴聚在一起；以及一个数字网络平台，可以整合四个受资助项目的活动，并向世界传播进展和结果。
