The new president’s theme for the year is ‘Making the Journey’, and over the next twelve months he will be exploring and developing the theme placing particular focus on: Making the career journey; Making transportation more accessible, focusing on improving access to our transport systems and networks; Making the journey more reliable, improving the resilience and maintenance of infrastructure; Making the case for transport, highlighting the important social and economic role played by transport to stakeholders
