All tender information MUST be submitted through the CCS eSourcing Portal.

This project seeks to understand the nature of freight within the future of mobility in the UK, looking out to 2040.

What goods will be travelling into, out of and around the UK?

How might they be transported?

What are the impacts of coming technological trends and business models?

What are the uncertainties we need to explore and plan for, to help inform decisions that governments (national, regional and local) and industry will need to take?

We are seeking a systematic evidence-based review to understand the current landscape of freight transport systems, across common modes of transport (road, rail, domestic aviation, domestic shipping (including coastal and inland waterways) and freight infrastructure (ports, distribution centres, warehouses and storage depots).

All domestic and international freight traffic travelling to, from or through the UK, using UK infrastructure is in scope (England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland).
