At a time when public and private sector resources are being squeezed even more tightly, there has never been a more compelling reason to focus on creative and innovative ways to reduce pressure on the UK’s already crowded transport system.
‘Smarter travel’ is an essential part of today’s transport solutions. To realise its full potential in our current climate requires commitment and a new level of attention and vigour from a wide range of professionals. Collectively, smarter travel has a key part to play in successfully managing our transport networks and systems.
