Road Expo & Bridges Scotland Announce Transport Scotland as official content partner

  • Wednesday September 4, 2024

Road Expo & Bridges Scotland will partner with Transport Scotland for 2024. Returning to the SEC Glasgow on 27-28 November, the collocated events will welcome over 1500 road, transport and bridge professionals from across Scotland.

Working in partnership with Transport Scotland, content teams at Road Expo and Bridges Scotland will be putting together two extensive conference agendas that will update the industry on ongoing major projects such as the A9 Dualling and examine traffic solutions, low-emissions and bridge strikes.

“Having supported Road Expo and Bridges Scotland for a number of years, we’re always happy to share developments from our highways and bridge teams. This year, we’re looking forward to providing updates on Traffic Scotland service evolution, low-emission zones, guidance for HGVs and bridge strikes, and reporting bridge precursor events and element failures, amongst other topics. We always find the event a valuable opportunity to engage with the wider industry and see what ideas and innovations are brought to the fore by the private sector and the 32 local authorities.” Hazel McDonald, Chief Bridge Engineer (Head of Structures), Transport Scotland

“It’s an exciting time to be involved in the roads and mobility sector in Scotland, with major projects like the Dualling of the A9 and the introduction of low-emission zones attracting headlines. We can’t wait to share updates on these initiatives and are hugely grateful to Transport Scotland for their support in ensuring our audience get to hear about the big issues from key stakeholders and industry leaders.” Khalifa Bokhammas, Head of Content, Hemming Group
