Transport

We champion travel and transport for people by air, sea, rail and road. We focus on opportunities for engineering and technology. Bringing together experts from industry, academia and government, we deliver programmes of activity, inspired by issues of the day and innovation around the transport from autonomous vehicles to integrated systems and beyond.

Are flying cars nearly a reality?

Flying taxis aren’t a reality yet but they are under development in many different countries including the UK. Regulations around operating them don’t exist yet, which makes us question, can they be as safe or safer than a journey on road? The cost of these journeys and environmental impacts will also be considered. Would you use a flying taxi?
