THE UK'S LEADING CONFERENCE FOR TRAFFIC AND PARKING PROFESSIONALS
Traffic + Parking 2026 brings together the people responsible for managing, maintaining and improving the UK's roads, kerbsides and parking systems.
For more than two decades, the conference has provided a platform for local authorities, government agencies, suppliers and industry experts to share knowledge, explore emerging challenges and discuss practical solutions.
Whether your focus is network management, parking operations, traffic enforcement, kerbside management, technology, policy or strategy, Traffic + Parking 2026 offers a valuable opportunity to learn from peers and hear directly from those shaping the future of the profession.
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
Traffic and parking professionals face an increasingly complex environment.
Growing demand for road space, changing travel patterns, budget pressures, decarbonisation, new mobility services and evolving public expectations are placing greater demands on local authorities than ever before.
At the same time, traffic and parking teams are expected to support wider objectives around economic growth, place-making, accessibility, sustainability and public realm improvements.
Traffic + Parking 2026 will explore how authorities can balance these competing priorities while continuing to deliver safe, efficient and effective services.
The conference combines policy discussion, operational best practice, case studies and practical guidance, ensuring delegates leave with ideas they can apply immediately within their own organisations.
