In 2020, the effects of the coronavirus pandemic resulted in a drastic shift in how many use transport. There were benefits to this as well as negatives; but as we look to the end of the pandemic will industry plans for the future of transport need to be revised? What will be the long-term effects of shifting working patterns and remote working? And what will be the impact on young professionals? These questions are explored in this podcast.
The podcast also includes an interview with Martin Tugwell, CIHT President who also talks about his view on the topic, his experience as the CIHT President and the new opportunities for CIHT members to get more involved.
