• How can investment in future transport infrastructure lead to accelerated change in the economy and subsequent levelling up?

• How do we prepare for the potential impacts of emerging technologies? 

• Exploring the micro mechanisms that underpin how people move across space due to better transport connections  

• Better capturing the impacts of transport, including improvements to the appraisal of active modes, freight, and values of time in congested conditions – how do these vary for different groups?
