\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In advance of May’s Scottish Parliament elections, we are hosting <\/span>a series of online events to provide our members, the wider transport sector, and members of the public with the opportunity to engage with representatives of the main political parties in Scotland. A representative from each of the five main political parties in Scotland will outline their party\u2019s vision for sustainable transport should they be elected and then allow delegates the opportunity to ask questions on key transport issues.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

We’re delighted to be working with Alastair Dalton<\/a>, Transport Correspondent for The Scotsman\/Scotland on Sunday, who will be chairing the events. We’ll also be joined by experts from within Transform’s membership who will be available to join in the discussion.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first event will be held on Monday 15 February when we welcome Graham Simpson MSP<\/a>, the Scottish Conservatives’ Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure and Connectivity.<\/p>\n

The events are open to the public and free to attend. If you would like to attend this event, please sign up on Eventbrite here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We will be sharing the other events with the Greens, Labour, the Liberal Democrats, and the SNP shortly so please check our website or social media for more information on those events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
