If the ITS in place now is switched off then carbon emissions would increase 25%.
Wow.
We need to be shouting about this and working out how to get people to pay more attention to what ITS can do to help.

Glad to hear pay as you drive mentioned as part of reducing the carbon impact of travel.

Listening to the opening session at #transportAI2025, I'm on later talking about what @rtig.org.uk members are delivering now.

Hitting the headlines again today, another bus failing to fit under a bridge.

RTIG have a research report to raise awareness of the problem in the UK bus industry; and offer some guidance on how bus operators might prevent and ultimately - eradicate the problem.

The interesting bit in this research is the desire to retro fit as so often improvements are to new vehicles only and therefore take years to have an impact for most people.

Interesting stat particularly as I've been through the tunnel twice each way in the last 10 days.

The St Pancras station tree is always special, this year it's a giant book tree with seating spaces around the bottom. Best yet.
