On the road: Future car exhibition goes north for COP-26 conference

Solihull Editorial 9th May, 2021   0

A TOPICAL exhibition from the British Motor Museum ‘The Car. The Future. Me’ is to be showcased by the Dundee Museum of Transport at the United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP-26 in Glasgow later this year.

The exhibition, which explores the future of the car, was successfully hosted at the British Motor Museum in 2019/2020.

Dundee Museum of Transport approached the Gaydon centre looking for upcycled and recycled materials for their new exhibition about sustainable transport to coincide with the climate change conference.

Catherine Griffin, curator at the British Motor Museum said “We are delighted that our thought provoking exhibition is going on tour to Scotland and hope it sparks debate amongst their visitors as it did when we hosted the exhibition.”




Alexander Goodger, museum manager at Dundee Museum of Transport said: “We are pleased that the British Motor Museum shares our environmental goals, and through our partnership, we are able to host a low-carbon exhibition on the topic of sustainable transport for the public to enjoy nearly 400 miles away from where it was created.

“We hope this is the start of greater collaboration between our organisations in Scotland and England.”
