A Manifesto for the Future of Scottish Transport
ITS UK’s Manifesto for the Future of Scottish Transport sets out five recommendations for a future Scottish Government ahead of the May 2026 devolved elections.
Recommendations
- Provide support to renew obsolescent urban traffic signal infrastructure to futureproof the network.
- Build upon the MaaS Investment Fund to drive a more strategic approach to integrated transport in Scotland with leadership from Scottish Government.
- Support greater budgets for operational expenditure at a local authority level, to purchase innovative software tech.
- Leverage DRT to increase public transport availability especially in rural and island areas.
- Deliver a Scottish Bus Open Data Service (BODS) to improve alignment between transport operators and passenger experience.
