Y&H If we always do what we always did - using world best practice to break the cycle
26 April 2012 | Branch: Yorkshire & Humberside
The quadrennial World Road Congress took take place in Mexico City in September 2011. The talk will focus on feedback from the Congress (i.e. what is new in the world of highways) and also how individuals and organisations can stay in regular touch with, or even directly contribute to, world best practice in your area of interest specialism.
It will touch on the work that the WRA UK is doing to support Highways Maintenance Efficiency Programmes by providing international experience input and will also cover the work that the WRA is doing to support UK plc in the international arena.
