The countdown to Highways UK is on!

As the highways and transport sector prepares to gather at Birmingham’s NEC, this week’s Highways Voices brings you the perfect preview of an event packed with ideas, innovation and opportunities to connect.

These podcasts from Highways UK are sponsored by AGD Systems, Arcadis, Nicander, SWARCO and Westcotec.

Organiser Claudia Davidson takes us behind the scenes to explain what makes this year’s show such an exciting prospect. With more exhibitors than ever, an extensive conference programme and the chance to meet people from across the industry, she sets the scene for two days you’ll want to be part of.

We also hear from Transport for West Midlands’ Jordan Cowley, who looks ahead to Birmingham hosting the ITS World Congress in 2027. He explains why bringing the international transport technology community to the UK presents such a valuable opportunity for our industry, and how visitors to this year’s Highways UK can find out more.
