Reducing Non-Exhaust Transport Pollution
Funds measurement, modelling and mitigation of tyre, brake, rail-contact and resuspended particle pollution from roads and railways.
As road and rail transport electrifies, particles from tyres, brakes, track contact and resuspension form a growing share of transport pollution. Evidence is still weak for heavier particles and microplastics that settle into soils and water rather than remaining airborne.

Research must improve measurement, simulation and validation of non-exhaust emissions from road and railway transport. It should quantify impacts on people, terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, improve inventory factors including resuspension, and test mitigation strategies with useful performance indicators and cost-benefit analysis.
