Transport is at the heart of the government’s ambitions to transform the economy of the North of England. Linking up towns and cities in the North with a world class transport system will allow them to function as a single economy, stronger than the sum of their parts. Transport for the North (TfN) brings together local transport authorities and combined authorities across the North of England to speak with a single voice to government. Our supplement will look at the investment priorities and plans that TfN is putting together, including an interview with its chief executive, David Brown.
MENA Transport Congress and Exhibition 2016 will take place in Dubai from 25-27th April, 2016. For most countries in the Middle East and North Africa, transport is central to their economic strategy. Cities across the region are focusing on new low carbon, low cost metro, light rail and bus rapid transit modes of transport. Our supplement will be distributed at this prestigeous event and will focus on state-of-the-art policies, projects and initiatives in the MENA region. It will feature interviews with Alain Flausch, secretary general of UITP, and Dubai’s Road and Transport Authority (RTA).
