This Year’s Theme: Sustainable Transport for a Smart City
🚲 Reimagine mobility. Rethink city living. Redesign the future.
This summer, you’ll focus on the challenge of creating a sustainable transport solution for Canada Water—a major regeneration site and the first new town centre in London in 50 years.
Transport is the backbone of inclusive, thriving cities—but it’s also the largest contributor to the UK’s greenhouse gas emissions. You’ll explore how smart, inclusive, and future-ready transport systems can help build healthier, more connected urban communities.
In a fast-paced design sprint, you’ll team up with peers to develop bold new ideas—guided by TEDI-London mentors and expert input from a range of industries and sectors.
