Improving the UK's infrastructure with Highways in the sky

ongoing

The country’s shortage of HGV drivers highlights the need to reimagine how we move goods across the UK. The world is on the cusp of a revolution in aviation, as the implementation of electric and autonomous flight gives us a unique opportunity to not only embrace a new form of transport, but reduce emissions and fix the existing integration problems of rail and road. To achieve this vision, siloes need to be broken down to enable collaboration across a diverse network of innovators. Organisations outside of the traditional aviation industry will play a vital role in advancing electric, hydrogen and autonomous flight technologies, while enabling whole new infrastructures to be built.
