Technology for a Smarter Journey.
Our future transport systems are being shaped and driven by technology. Technology such as the rollout of 5G which has made the Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data central to the development and improvement of how passenger transport projects are delivered and run. This leads to better use of data, smarter ways of paying for our tickets, journey information in Real-Time, flexible timetables and embedding technology into the transport infrastructure.
The cost of the passenger transport sector in the UK is vast and recent Government figures show that public sector transport spending in 2021-2022 is expected to be £51b. In addition, the cost of HS2 phase one in 2021 stands at £40.3b. This does not however include the many privately funded projects across the country.
With a mix of successful case studies, and an introduction to new upcoming technology, Excellence In Passenger Transport will offer attendees an overview of what is possible now and in the near future.
As our transport system is shaped by technology, we all need to get onboard.
During Excellence In Passenger Transport delegates will have the opportunity to discuss and share their own experiences and the challenges they are currently facing. This will offer attendees the chance to look at different ways of addressing those challenges and gain an overall view of where they are now and what needs to be done to get them to where they need to be.
