Description

The research is made up of two phases to be carried out in parallel: The first workstream is an exploration of the end-to-end border process and systems that different users of freight transport need to navigate, to highlight which processes need further facilitation and where issues arise. Ideally, this will include identification of specific user pain-points and the variety of possible systems that users engage with when importing and exporting goods. Crucially this work needs to include different modes of transport and routes (maritime, aviation, roads, rail and juxtaposed controls). The second workstream a comparison of the UK freight traffic border systems to our international counterparts with the 'gold standard' for the border. The work should compare the UK and international border systems; and explore how technology and systems for freight traffic abroad can be utilised in the UK to improve the user journey for UK freight traffic.
