Getting around painlessly, using roads, motorways, trains, tunnels, navigable waterways, ports and airports safely and efficiently, improving coastline conservation, making towns better places to live, having access to high-performance, low-pollution public transport, living in decent homes, attracting tourists and holidaying more often…. these are aspirations shared by all.

Every day, 110,000 employees of the ministryare working to bring such aspirations to fruition. In addressing today the big issues of the years ahead, 8,000 researchers, engineers and technicians are seeking to identify future trends in all the areas that fall within the ministry's remit.
