CivTech 5 Challenge 7 — How Can We Use Technology to Create a Smart and Sustainable Travel Network in Remote and Rural Areas?

Descriptions

The geography of the Highlands and Islands results in a challenging transport environment, covering almost 50 % of Scotland’s landmass but with only 10 % of its population. While dispersed settlements are reliant on a good transport network for connectivity and access to key services, the financial sustainability of traditional transport services is a significant challenge. Traditional models are based on a ‘critical mass’ of demand which by its very nature is lacking in most rural and remote areas. Now more than ever it is important we understand the transport available for use within the region (including buses, ferries, trains, car clubs and cycling) and create a more flexible, demand-responsive system that meets the needs of users, calculates and understands travel patterns as well as addressing cost efficiencies and long-term viability. We know there here are huge opportunities to use technology to create a smart and sustainable travel network in remote and rural areas.So how can we transform the future of rural transport and support out highland communities to thrive?Please visit our website for information on CivTech and how to get involvedhttps://www.civtechalliance.org/civtech-innovation-flow
