3. The Challenge: But people want more from services and their lives

4. Challenges of Disruption
We need to be cautious about simply enabling new monopolies/ oligopolies by design.
Not repeating the same mistakes, but with new tech
And, enabling public sphere to still exist.

5. Openness There is an essential benefit to openness.
Sharing transport data is intrinsically necessary to a fully functioning community of transport services.
…enables effective public policy to be debated and developed. Allows for societies that are equipped to deal with sustainability, fairness, equity and equality.
