CONNECTING POLICY TO REAL-TIME SOLUTIONS

18th September 2019 | ICC Birmingham

Post-Event Report

The purpose of the Smart Transport Conferences is to add clarity to

the shared challenges facing the UK transport sector, find practical

solutions and provide a road map towards the introduction of multi

modal, integrated transport in the UK, through strategic public private

partnerships at local and national government levels.

This focus on connecting policy to solutions ensures our conferences

are not simply a talking shop for technology companies and suppliers

to simply talk to each other. Instead, Smart Transport Conferences

provide a platform for networking, collaboration and knowledge

transfer with senior smart transport experts on the practical steps

needed for private sector solutions to turn the government’s

vision into a reality.

Carlota Da Veiga Pestana, Smart Transport Lead, Bauer Media

‘Smart Transport’ starts from challenging the silos in transport and

mobility - between local and national, public and private, the motor

industry and transport services - and seeks to break them down and

get people talking.

The Smart Transport Conferences in London and Birmingham have

had a really wide range of speakers from different backgrounds,

showcasing projects and initiatives that are changing the way

we get around. They have had presentations from national and

local governments setting out their future strategies and policies

on tackling air pollution and climate change, and examples of

collaboration and partnership between private and public sector

organisations showing what innovation and technology can do to

make transport better for all.

and effective networks that keep traffic moving with case studies

about success stories.

How technology and smart solutions will create a

viable network.

Air Quality & Climate Change

Cutting edge technologies and innovative solutions to help the

private sector improve air quality and how these key policy drivers

will impact on your business.

Shared Mobility

One of the hottest topics of the moment, discover how

shared mobility services can fulfil travel needs and learn the key

factors that underpin a successful scheme.

Zero Emissions Outcomes

How cities can move from low emissions to zero emissions and

what this means for public health and the transport sector.

Micro-Mobility

A flexible solution in the city but what are the regulatory

frameworks necessary to ensure safety, efficiency and equity? This

session provides the answers.

Universal Mobility & Equity

Transport should be available to everyone regardless of wealth, age, race or disability. Hear the

solutions that can achieve this utopia.

Freight & Logistics

A clean, low cost freight revolution is possible if

government and industry work to embrace alternatives. Gain

There’s a huge opportunity through different technologies but if we don’t have the right support both at local and at government level they may not actually be able to deliver what we need within a time frame that we would like to experience. It’s a great privilege to be with so many people who are very passionate and very knowledgeable about the industry and I have really got a lot out of being here today.

Edward Clarke (Attendee), Managing Director, Operations, FedEx Express

The Smart Transport Conference is an excellent opportunity to gather the insights to enable us to accelerate the transition to zero-emission vehicles and also to develop the mobility solutions and services that cities and their citizens want.

Dr Jo Dally (Speaker), Global Head

of City Partnerships, Lead for the

Advanced Mobility Unit, BP

11

The opportunity for zero-emission, zero fatality and zero congestion is something that we have a shared opportunity to benefit from. The key challenges and opportunities in realising these eco systems are in having a single-minded approach and the right partners around the table to be able to deliver some of the opportunities that we’re looking to bring to the market today.

Carl Bayliss (Speaker), VP, Mobility &

Home Energy, Centrica

12

Smart Transport Conference gives us a great opportunity to bring partners together and to collaborate moving forward. The transport industry, historically, hasn’t had that fast paced mindset and so one of our challenges is how do we move forward at pace and adopt new ideas and new innovative technologies without necessarily knowing they’re all going to be successful.

Tony Caccavone (Speaker), Surface Access Director, Heathrow

13

We run cars and vans, so we have to adapt and adopt. This is one of the best places to learn about it and also to share our experience into what we’re hearing from our customers. One of the challenges is disseminating what is here and now, what’s in three or four-years’ time and what’s in five to ten years’ time and making that reality through collaboration between public and private.
