For the first time, the Australian ITS Summit and the National electronic Tolling Conference (NeTC), which takes place on 12-14 May in Melbourne, will combine as the most important gathering in Australia for ITS professionals in 2015.

To be opened by Minister Luke Donnellan, Minister for Roads and Road Safety and Minister for Ports, the conference will bring together transportation engineers, manufacturers, consultants, business leaders, academia and government to hear about best practices, trends and emerging technology. With a national focus, the Summit will address challenges particularly facing the Australian ITS industry in the current climate whilst NeTC will discuss key insights on major national and international tolling projects, including innovations in tolling, C-ITS technology, congestion, charging and processing systems.

Both conferences will run separate programs, with their own invited speakers and breakout sessions but will come together for selected keynote presentations and the industry exhibition. Flexible registration options are available for attendees to choose whether to attend just NeTC, just Summit or both, with the exhibition and networking programs all included. In addition, all cross-interest breakout sessions are available for all attendees.
