National Highways named headline content partner for Traffex 2025

Traffex and National Highways have strengthened their ongoing partnership with the national operator becoming the headline content partner for the event this year, taking place at the CBS Arena in Coventry on 21-22 May.

National Highways will take centre stage for the 2025 conference programme, across four dedicated theatres, covering management and mobility, safety and sustainability, road resilience and winter maintenance, as well as EV infrastructure.

All conference sessions will be free to attend and offer CPD accreditation through the Institute of Highway Engineers.

National Highways will headline the Management and Mobility stage at Traffex. Other National Highways speakers already confirmed include Darren Clark, severe weather resilience manager and William Beazley, severe weather R&D specialist.

In addition to headlining the 2025 conference programme, National Highways has confirmed it will be returning to the show floor, hosting senior delegates from across the industry at the National Highways lounge.

Event attendees will include senior representatives, heads of highways departments, local authority chief executives and National Highways representatives.

Elliot Shaw, National Highways’ chief customer and strategy officer said: '2025 will be an important year for the UK highways sector. Engaging fully with our industry partners and existing and potential supply chain will be key to our success. Our presence at Traffex again this year will help us achieve this.'

Traffex director Gordon Kirk said: 'We are delighted to further develop our relationship with National Highways, and proud that National Highways will be our headline content partner once again in 2025. We are thrilled to be working with National Highways in bringing together all the major stakeholders responsible for the management, maintenance, planning and development of the UK’s national and local roads networks.'
