The Department for Transport has now published the Transport Data Action Plan — setting out its commitments to improve how transport data is used, shared and understood across the sector.
So what does this mean in practice for authorities, operators and suppliers?
What will change around sharing and access?
What does “better standards and quality” look like?
And how do we make sure data is used in ways that reflect user needs, including accessibility, as well as good governance and ethics?
RTIG is hosting this webinar to provide a clear overview of the Action Plan and highlight the areas that will matter most for organisations delivering public transport information, operational systems and passenger-facing services.
What we’ll cover
- What the Transport Data Action Plan is and why it has been published now
