Institute for Government: Does England need a transport strategy?

The Institute for Government is hosting an online event titled 'Does England need a transport strategy?'

The event will be held virtually on Monday 1st November from 13:00 - 14:00. 

Following recent research from the Institute for Government and the Gatsby Foundation, which analysed the use of evidence in transport policy in the UK and compared it to four other countries, the IfG is delighted to bring together an expert panel to discuss whether England needs a single transport strategy, the challenges involved in putting such a strategy in place, and how the system can be resilient to shocks and crises whilst reducing carbon emissions and keeping the focus on user experience.

The panellists to discuss the issues include:

• Lord Adonis, former Secretary of State for Transport
• Sue Kershaw, Managing Director for Transportation at Costain and APM President
• Bridget Rosewell CBE, Commissioner on the National Infrastructure Commission
• Martin Tugwell, Chief Executive at Transport for the North
