Integrated transport begins from a point of understanding, Andy Clarke, Costain

The Interchange Podcast

Welcome to The Interchange podcast where our guest is Andy Clarke, Director for Integrated Transport at Costain.

In this episode, we discussed:

• that integrated transport systems must start from a point of understanding our clients' biggest issues
• how deeper collaboration is needed across the sector and more openness to change
• the key role the private sector can play in the cross-sector fertilisation of knowledge sharing and ideas
• why more modes should use the model developed by the aviation sector to deliver integrated transport systems
• how the use of innovative technology such as hydrogen and batteries will play a crucial role in decarbonisation. But we must be mindful that there is no one silver bullet and we will need to adopt multiple approaches.
• being mindful about introducing technology just for technology’s sake

This podcast series is produced in association with Arcadis and hosted by independent broadcaster, Ayo Abbas and interviews leading changemakers and thinkers about how integrated transport infrastructure is the solution to achieving a more effective and decarbonised transport network.
