The significance of climate change for society and in turn highways and transportation is profound. Taking action to address it has become central to professional concerns. Supported with sponsorship from Mott MacDonald and Ringway, it embarked in 2024 on an initiative called CLIMATES – Changing Landscapes for Infrastructure and Mobility: Assessing Transport and Environment Scenarios.
Sue Percy CBE, Chief Executive, CIHT said:
"Two major challenges will define the work of many transport professionals now and for decades to come. First, the need to achieve deep and rapid reductions in the carbon emissions produced by transport, including those associated with the construction and maintenance of transport infrastructure. Second, there will be a need to adapt our systems and networks to become more resilient in the face of the accelerating impacts of climate change.”
“To support this transformation, we commissioned CLIMATES to ensure that CIHT members and the wider sector could help shape how we deliver our commitment on positive climate action. The scale and complexity of the climate crisis can at times feel overwhelming. It is easy to think that individual efforts are too small to make a meaningful difference. The recommendations from our ongoing work aim to create a pathway for change that will require support from across the sector and beyond."
