Future of transport data

Inquiry

The Transport Committee is inquiring into the potential uses of data to improve planning and delivery of transport services, management of transport assets, and helping transport users get around more quickly, efficiently and safely. We will look at how networks, infrastructure and journeys might look different in the future if data is used to its full potential, as well as asking what risks need to be managed.
