Intellect’s Transport Group aims to represent the views of member companies involved in the transport arena, inform transport stakeholders of the potential contribution IT can make to transport systems and optimise the trading environment in which Intellect members operate.

The group has established a number of speaker-led meetings and recently held a Transport reception on 07 March 2007, where Minister of State for Transport Dr Stephen Ladyman was the keynote speaker. Intellect has also published an industry white paper on road user charging as part of a campaign to ensure the industry's voice is heard in the ongoing public debate on the issue.

The key objectives of the Intellect Transport Group include:

  • promoting the UK IT Transport Industry to key stakeholders - including ministers, officials, politicians and other opinion formers - with a view to influencing policy
  • publicising the importance of technology in all related areas of transport e.g. environment, security, safety
  • identifying the opportunities and barriers to market entry
  • discussing key technology issues (e.g. interoperability, international standards, road pricing)
  • examining the latest developments concerning products, business models and channels, market trends, future growth models and other relevant issues.
  • encouraging and developing the application of Concept Viability for new procurements
  • promoting knowledge sharing and networking
  • assisting the development of Intellect guidance documents
