Vision 2035 archive
The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK’s well-received report, Vision 2035, was published in September 2011. Its purpose was to look to the future and visualise how transport and logistics in the UK would develop, with the aim of identifying challenges the sector would face and the policy instruments needed to serve society as effectively as possible.
Vision 2035 was a starting point for continuing work on likely future changes and the development of more detailed ideas on how best to meet the likely demands on logistics and the transport system.
A series of studies, discussions and other activities built on the original Vision 2035. The report (Re)Inventing the Wheel, prepared by the Institute’s Logistics & Transport Technology Group and published in May 2017, was the fifth and final of the Vision 2035 series.
