TTF Conference 2024

Event Date: 23 April 2024 - 25 April 2024

This year’s Transport Technology Forum Annual Conference heard about technology solutions that are being used now by local authorities to solve their road transport challenges.

The annual event brings together central government, local authorities and the supply chain. It detailed the latest about digital Traffic Regulation Orders, the National Parking Platform, data sharing and the next phase in the £70 million of extra funding for traffic signals, including new schemes making use of machine learning and artificial intelligence to optimise traffic flow and balance traffic across city centres.

There was also a chance to hear from the TTF’s Working Groups, case studies of real-world implementations from local authorities alongside their suppliers, and extensive networking opportunities alongside a bigger-than-ever exhibition.

The TTF Conference 2024 event saw 250 people attend, including more than 120 from over 60 local councils and combined authorities. As in previous years, public sector representatives receive fully-funded places.
