How does London, like other mega cities handle the challenges of transport and infrastructure when shaped by complex systems, diverse communities, and shifting political and environmental pressures? Grounded in both London’s history and global perspectives, the episode offers a critical look at how cities can adapt their infrastructure to meet climate challenges, support diverse populations, and enable more integrated, resilient ways of living. Dr Thaisa Comelli, Dr John Ward and Ben Coleman join Professor Mike Raco to discuss how infrastructure is not just about movement, but about interconnected systems. From energy and water to digital networks and public space that must work together in an increasingly uncertain urban future.
