Smart motorways have been in the news over the last few years and an action plan has been agreed to improve the safety of existing and future motorway schemes. Come and hear from the experts on how smart motorways work, how safety is managed on Highways England’s projects, what the review into motorway safety found, and the proposed action plan.

The event will aim to have shorter presentations than usual and a longer Q&A, so you have time to ask the experts. Get your questions ready!

Our Speakers:

Max Brown is Head of Road Design for Highways England. He is technical lead for the development of smart motorways and sits on Highways England’s National Safety Control Review Group and Operations Technical Leadership Group.

Peter Whitfield sits on the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation Safety Panel, and on Highways England’s National Safety Control and Review Group and Operations Technical Leadership Group.

James Catmur was Safety Champion on the first active traffic management scheme (M42 ATM). He advises Highways England on motorway safety and is a member of the safety team on the new CHARM highway control system.
