Have you had your say on the draft Transport Strategy 2035?    

We meet with Dr Neil Galway from @QUBNBE @QUBelfast

He shared some of his thinking on the strategy, including the importance of a sustainable & accessible transport network, and ensuring young people are included in all elements of future planning:

“getting the voice of the next generation is critical to ensuring that we’re actually planning for our society.”

The consultation is open until 16 September 2025, get involved here: https://t.co/EMdWezTgco
