Recap/summary/closure/take-aways

Abstract

The objective of the day’s sessions is to demonstrate that it is imperative that Critical Thinking is applied in every aspect of transport planning and transport systems (infrastructure and services). This session will provide some take-away common thoughts that emanate from them. The concept of “Critical Thinking”, “divergent thinking”, “blue-sky thinking” purely means taking a wider perspective view on all tasks at all levels of detail and complexity. Without that those initial perspectives, the development of transport plans and infrastructure designs can result in undesirable consequences, either in the end result or the cost of repeat work during the design process. This session will summarise the common threads and plant the seed for a proliferation of Critical thinking.
