Changing Landscapes for Infrastructure and Mobility: Assessing Transport and Environment Scenarios

New CIHT initiative to help professionals explore their options

The world is in a state of flux socially, technologically, economically, environmentally and politically. What lies ahead over the next decade in relation to climate change? What does this mean for professionals and organisations in the highways and transportation sector?  

CIHT CLIMATES is a new initiative that is exploring these scenarios and will provide a series of practical recommendations to enable the sector to make genuine change.    

Led by CIHT President Professor Glenn Lyons and sponsored by Mott MacDonald and Ringway, CIHT CLIMATES will:

  • better equip professionals to determine their priorities and actions in the present in the face of future climates change possibilities
  • give CIHT members a greater voice to inform how the Institution champions its climate action theme

A chance to get involved

All CIHT members can get involved in the CIHT CLIMATES initiative and there are multiple ways to take part and there will be a series of eight one-day face-to-face UK workshops, several online engagement sessions and a survey of member’s views. 

The project will publish its findings and recommendations in Spring /Summer 2025.


Why attend?

Participants will have the chance to discuss the key issues around Climate Action and influence the future direction of CIHT on this core theme. This in-person event will be a great opportunity to learn from fellow professionals and for them to learn from you. 

Attending one of the workshops will provide an excellent day of training in futures and foresight methods as well as a fulfilling your annual CIHT CPD commitment on climate action and decarbonisation.

 

Workshop Dates

With spaces limited to only 30 people per workshop and places allocated on a first-come-first served basis, don’t delay in booking your complementary place. 

Due to the limited capacity of the workshops, we will be creating a reserve list for those that express an interest. 

If you cannot attend one of these sessions, there will be further online workshops in early 2025 and the opportunity to respond to an all-members survey. 

So whatever your views, wherever you are in the highways and transport sector, whatever your career stage, if you are ready to open your mind and play a part in preparing for the future, we hope you’ll take part in CIHT CLIMATES.
