RSSThe forthcoming 8268 Highways UK event at the ExCel in London on 25 and 26 November will debate the future of smart roads, what they will look like and whether they are actually needed, along with in-car robotics and communication with intelligent infrastructure.

Daniel Ruiz, Managing Director at 769 Imtech Traffic and Infra UK will be debating the many cultural and social challenges of intelligent transport systems with Isabel Dedring, Deputy Mayor for Transport at the GLA and others in an agenda-setting Highways UK session.

Mike Bell, global connected car director Jaguar Land Rover, will be joining Philip Proctor, the principal engineer and future technologies team leader for 8101 Highways England, and others to discuss the working group and its findings.
