Taking place at The NEC in Birmingham on 18 and 19 October, Highways UK brings together the people responsible for managing, maintaining, and future-proofing the nation's road networks. Visit us at stand 106 to learn more about who we are and what we do, how we hold National Highways to account, and our role in developing the next road investment strategy. 

 

On the agenda – Wednesday 18 October

10am, Keynote Theatre: Feras Alshaker, ORR Director of Planning and Performance, joins a keynote panel session on ‘Inspiring confidence and progress in the roads sector’ – with Anthony Smith (Transport Focus), Nick Harris (National Highways), and Emma Ward (Department for Transport).
