DfT Transport-Technology Research and Innovation Grants

Words By: Drone Major

The Connected Places Catapult supports the DfT’s Transport-Technology Research and Innovation Grants (T-TRIG) programme. T-TRIG bridges the early stage, proof-of-concept funding gap in transport innovation, where small investments can de-risk emerging solutions. An Open Call to fund ideas across the whole of the transport technology spectrum is now open. Apply by 29 October for grants up to £30k to prove your idea works.

The 2019 T-TRIG call was announced by George Freeman, Minister of State for the Future of Transport, on 24 September and will remain open until 23:59 on 29 October.

The scope of the call is:

• An Open Call to fund ideas across the whole of the transport technology spectrum.

Plus themed calls on:

• Decarbonising the Transport System
• Potholes and Resilient Infrastructure
• Age-friendly and Accessible Transport.
