The upcoming International Bridge, Tunnel, and Turnpike Association (2793 IBTTA) 2014 global summit in Prague, Czech Republic, will be focusing on “Sustainable Transport & Mobility for People and Goods” say the organisers with key sessions looking at “strategic issues such as interoperability (EETS/REETS), road safety, environmental protection, traffic in cities, big data, road user charging around the World and future developments, trends, and technologies.”

The summit, which takes place from October 19 to 21 2014 has been carefully “balanced” so that the presentations are a mix of “international public and private experts from Europe, North and South America, South Africa, and Asia” says IBTTA. The event is being held in co-operation with Asecap, the European Association of Operators of Toll Road Infrastructures
