The latest episode of the Influencers@Lincoln podcast looks at how transport options such as electric vehicles can be utilised for the betterment of society.

Lincoln academic Dr Hafsa Ahmed talks with Dr Helen Fitt whose work focuses on tourist mobilities,  particularly tourists' use of land transport.

Dr Fitt has worked on different projects focusing in this area which includes exploring the possible implications of driverless cars for an ageing society, the use of electric vehicles in tourism and shared mobility.
