Dokumentbeteckning: 2019:063

The Swedish Transport Administration’s third outlook draws attention to long­term trends that we believe could have a great influence on the Swedish Transport Administration and stakeholders in our immediate vicinity. We have made a summary and update of the trends described in the Swedish Transport Administration’s second outlook, which was published in 2014.

Mega trends are changes that occur generally in society and that are long­term and global in nature. Trends in the transport system are changes that occur specifically in the transport system and that have the mega trends as their basis. The report also describes changes in the roles and governance of the public sector. The concluding section provides an overview of how the trends might lead to different choices of direction.
