Held every two years, for the first time FIRM15 is opening up to all transport modes with speakers and participants from the rail sector.

With the theme of ‘Innovative maintenance of Transport Infrastructure: Faster, cheaper, more reliable, safer and greener’, FIRM15 aims at mapping the problems and challenges of innovative maintenance of transport infrastructure; sharing different visions of the future of infrastructure; and gaining a common understanding on the roles of R&D&I in infrastructure, as well as describing emerging R&D&I solutions and their corresponding drivers and challenges.

The programme is organised into five sessions - one engaging  plenary, three technical sessions including a strategy view point introduction from transport infrastructure owners, and one dynamic round table discussion on ‘Investing in innovative transport infrastructure, a critical matter at stake for European competitiveness and social cohesion’, as well as a mini-expo of key partners and projects.
