The consultation lays out five pillars that will guide the DfT activity in partnership with external partners such as the transportation industry, academia, and the third sector. These pillars are:

  • Boosting diversity
  • Inclusion
  • Social mobility
  • Improving training and employment
  • Promoting careers in transport
  • Preparing for future skills
  • Building evidence and evaluating progress

 As we recover from the coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic, the taskforce and the Department for Transport will design a programme to assist the industry in gaining access to skilled personnel. The above five pillars will guide the work of an industry-led taskforce and will be informed by public input to this report.
