136 Traffex 2013, the 26th international traffic engineering, road safety, parking and highway maintenance exhibition will take place in Hall 5 at the 1068 NEC Birmingham from 16  - 18  April 2013. According to the organisers, the event is set to be one of the largest in its thirty year history, and will once again be co-located with Parkex; Europe’s largest dedicated parking exhibition. The combined Traffex, Parkex Exhibition will provide visitors with the unique opportunity to see over 500 exhibitors from the world of transport, parking and street design all in one central location.

Companies from the UK and around the world will use Traffex 2013 as the launch pad for their latest products and services – many will be showing in the UK for the first time. In addition next year’s event will feature a much larger purpose built Seminar Theatre, offering visitors a wide range of topical briefings and insights from the traffic and parking industry’s leading experts. The three-day seminar programme will be free to attend and organised by ITS United Kingdom, the UK’s 503 Highways Agency, 1837 Department for Transport and The Institution of Highways & Transportation.

Bill Butler, Traffex Exhibition director, comments: “Bringing Traffex and Parkex together has proved to be a great success in previous years and along with a new Street Feature the show promises to offer a truly integrated overview of the transport, parking and the external street design sector. Traffex 2013 returns to Hall 5 at the NEC Birmingham covering 25,000 square meters of exhibition space, innovative seminars, features and over 500 international exhibitors, is free to attend and is a must see for anyone working within these industries.“
