What you will get out of the webinar

Greater understanding of how the challenges of transport decarbonisation and building resilience to climate change will shape the work of transportation professionals over the next decade
A chance to feed your views into the action plan CIHT is creating in response to the findings of the CLIMATES project

Background

Over the last few months over 300 transportation professionals from across the globe took place in a series of face to face and online workshops that challenged them to answer the question:

In an uncertain world, what priority actions in highways and transportation should we double-down on in the next three years to meet the unfolding challenges of climate change as we look out to 2035 and beyond?

The workshops and surveys used foresight and scenario planning techniques to allow participants to explore different potential futures and what they might mean for the twin challenges of decarbonising the transport system and improving its resilience to the accelerating impacts of climate change.

Professor Glenn Lyons

Glenn is the Mott MacDonald Professor of Future Mobility at UWE Bristol. The appointment bridges between academia and practice and Glenn is dividing his time between the university and Mott MacDonald (on secondment). At a time of significance for the transport sector, the position aims to co-develop and extend transport expertise in relation to understanding and responding to a changing and uncertain mobility landscape, which is shaped by technological possibilities and societal needs and preferences.
