The grow and level up the economy strategic priority is at the heart of the government’s agenda to spread opportunity across the UK. Transport has a crucial role to play, whether it be through improving connectivity across the United Kingdom and growing the economy by enhancing the transport network, on time and on budget. DfT has a number of specific interests in this space, notably our infrastructure projects, Places for Growth and our apprenticeships and skills work.

Partially relevant as it focuses on simulating transport infrastructures, but does not directly address uncertainty tools and products.
Recent events have made clear that many decisions must be made in uncertainty - that is without the luxury of the requisite time, information or understanding to allow the decision-maker to know if s/he is making the bes...

The project aims to develop tools and products for decision-making under uncertainty, which directly addresses the question.
Computational modelling provides a vital tool to support infrastructure decisions, allowing to evaluate risks and benefits of different infrastructure options on a virtual system (or "digital twin") before comm...

Fully relevant as it specifically addresses uncertainty quantification and sensitivity analysis for resilient infrastructure systems, aligning with the question.
