Full Traffex programme goes live: 100 speakers, 5 CPD-accredited stages

28/03/2024

Traffex – the UK’s leading road maintenance, traffic management and road safety event – has unveiled a packed conference programme for 2024 with over 100 speakers across five CPD-accredited stages.

This year’s line-up includes National Highways, the Department for Transport, The Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety (PACTS), Transport for London, the Office of Rail and Road.

Taking place on 22-23 May at the CBS Arena in Coventry alongside Parkex, Cold Comfort and a brand-new event, Evex, the two-day programme will explore the most pressing topics impacting the UK’s roads network through keynote addresses, insightful panel discussions and interactive workshops.

Visitor registration is now open - one pass gives visitors free access to all four events.

This year’s stages focus on:

  • Road Management and Mobility
  • Road Safety
  • Sustainability
  • Winter Road Resilience
  • Electric Vehicle Infrastructure

Highways editor Dominic Browne chairs a panel at last year's Traffex

Topics on this year’s agenda will range from Road Investment Strategy 2 (RIS 2), data, biodiversity and decarbonisation to the electrification of the strategic road network.

The agenda will also include case studies covering digital twins, the Lower Thames Crossing and Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 2080.

Iain McDonald, business development director at SRL Traffic Systems, said: ‘We’re really excited about this year’s agenda – it’s absolutely jam-packed with excellent content that will provide visitors with practical and actionable takeaways to help them work better and smarter.

‘With so much going on in the theatres, plus well over 120 exhibitors across four show floors, I encourage everyone to start scanning the agenda and get planning their itineraries today. It is an outstanding programme bursting with innovation, networking, inspiration and invaluable insights – not to be missed.’
