About the session
Strategic decision-making for transport systems
Transport is no longer just about infrastructure. Pricing, regulation, digital platforms, climate policy, geopolitics and land use all interact, and decisions made in one corner of the system show up far away in city budgets, logistics resilience and everyday lives.
Yet many organisations still plan, procure and decide using frameworks built for a slower, more predictable world. This webinar makes the case for investing in deeper understanding and shows what changes when decision-makers and experts share a common systems language.
The session is designed for professionals in transport, mobility, land use, infrastructure, public administration and consulting who want to sharpen how they think before they act.
Webinar content
The webinar will answer these questions
- Why systems thinking now: How accelerating change in technology, climate and geopolitics is reshaping the transport system and the cost of misreading it.
- From infrastructure to policy: Why combining pricing, regulation and space reallocation is now the core craft, not an add-on to building things.
- Linking transport to society: How transport choices connect to housing, equity, fiscal resilience and climate and why that link must be made explicit.
- Decisions that hold up: How to make investment and policy choices that stay robust as technology and political contexts shift.
