This project will use existing technologies not previously combined to achieve components for public transport use that will:\*Incorporate proven anti-microbial materials that act as an effective barrier against bacteria and help reduce viral transmission (even eliminate them in some cases), helping both with public health and customer perception issues;\*Incorporate these materials into lightweight structural recyclable composite materials that will reduce the component weights by over 50%, thereby reducing emissions, improving performance and greatly enhancing environmental and sustainability credentials;\*Be able to produce these components in the UK at volumes and costs equivalent to the currently imported steel components; and\*Have components that can be installed on new vehicles, but that can also be easily and cost-effectively retrofitted into existing vehicles.This is a massive, game-changing opportunity to improve the acceptability of public transport post-Covid, and has huge domestic and export potential.

该项目将使用以前没有结合的现有技术，以实现公共交通使用的组件，这些组件将：（甚至在某些情况下消除它们），有助于公共卫生和客户感知问题;* 将这些材料纳入轻质结构可回收复合材料，将部件重量减少50%以上，从而减少排放，提高性能并大大提高环境和可持续性证书;\* 能够在英国生产这些部件，其数量和成本与目前进口的钢部件相当;并且具有可以安装在新车上的组件，但也可以轻松且经济地改装到现有车辆中。这是一个巨大的，这是一个改变游戏规则的机会，可以提高新冠肺炎后公共交通的可接受性，并具有巨大的国内和出口潜力。
