Research output: Book/ReportCommissioned reportpeer-review

Abstract

Introduction
The PROTECT ('Partnership for Research in Occupational, Transport and Environmental COVID Transmission') National Core Study (https://sites.manchester.ac.uk/covid19-nationalproject/) conducted a series of ‘deep dives’ into specific [industrial] sectors to gain understanding of the issues that promote or reduce transmission of ‘SARS-CoV-2’ (the virus that causes COVID-19) in selected occupational settings (Theme 3, work package 1).
This report presents a summary of the findings of Phase 2 of the ‘deep dive’ looking at ground public transport (rail, bus, tram and taxi) in the UK, conducted between December 2021 and February 2022. This was a follow up to the Phase 1 qualitative research carried out between January and May 2021 (Coleman et al., 2022, Gartland et al., 2022). The research provides a longitudinal picture of public transport through the course of the pandemic, and presents a qualitative assessment of the perceptions of a number of those working with, in and utilising
the public transport sector.
