Infrastructure Transitions
Research Consortium

ITRC delivers research, models and decision support tools to enable analysis and planning of a robust national infrastructure system. The research addresses major challenges for the energy, transport, water, waste and ICT systems.

The consortium brings together seven leading UK universities to conduct a five-year programme of research that:

establishes a series of long term visions for national infrastructure in the UK;
models the interdependencies between infrastructure sectors;
analyses the vulnerabilities and risks of infrastructure failure;
explores the relationship between infrastructure and economic growth.
