A major two-day international conference
Balancing transport, environment and society's needs
In today’s society, the balance between the soaring demand for transport, the environment and the needs of society is a delicate one. As part of our well-established environmental series, this conference will seek to address the steps which need to be taken by policymakers, the transport industry and the investment community to resolve the transport conundrum.
Our event will bring together a cross section of leading international policymakers, regulators, transport professionals, environmentalists, academics and the media to discuss this topical issue.
Topics to be addressed include:
- Integrating sustainable transport into wider policy areas
- Capacity and congestion issues
- Investing in infrastructure
- Environmental concerns
- The consequences of inaction
