AI in Transport Competition

The Department for Transport (DfT) and Connected Places Catapult are collaborating to leverage AI’s potential to transform the UK transport sector. They are launching the Enhancing Passenger Experience – AI in Transport Competition to invite UK-based SMEs to propose AI-driven solutions to improve passenger experiences in line with the government’s transport priorities. Participants must address critical passenger challenges in one or more key areas: improving railways, enhancing bus services, transforming infrastructure to reduce inequality, delivering greener transport, or better integrating networks. Successful applicants will receive funding, professional support, and collaboration opportunities with policymakers and industry stakeholders to refine their business cases and pitch solutions.
