Congratulations to DARe's Dr Kristina Wolf for winning an “Excellent Young Researcher Award” at the International Climate Resilience Conference.
She presented her work on extreme weather impacts on transport during mass events, using the Great North Run 2023 as a case study.

#WorldCarFreeDay is a timely reminder of what our cities could look like with fewer cars and more sustainable #mobility options. It’s not just about cleaner air and quieter streets, but also a spotlight on the urgent need to fundamentally rethink our approach to #transport.

@alistaircford.bsky.social and Dr Jingyan Yu from @newcastleuni.bsky.social joined the RTPI event on #infrastructure in North East England.
Dr Ford shared insights from the #DAReNationalHub, highlighting the need for cross-sector collaboration in building climate-resilient, future-proof communities.

Our #transport systems - rail, roads, airports, ports - are interconnected. When one part fails, it can cause impacts through the entire network. So what’s holding us back from building #resilience?

Did you know May is #NationalWalkingMonth?

From cutting #emissions to reducing congestion; from boosting community health to increasing climate #resilience, walking isn’t just a way to get from A to B — it’s a step toward a #sustainable, more equitable and resilient future #transport system.
