All,

 

Coventry University will be hosting a Parliament Talks  Event on 10 October 2013  for the House of Commons Transport Committee around the future Road Transport strategy.  This event is organised in partnership with the House of Commons Transport Committee and the Houses of Parliament Outreach Service.  It will be held at Coventry University from 1.30 pm.

 

Louise Ellman MP, Chair of the House of Commons Transport Committee, will be chairing the event and examining what the future holds for England's road system.

 

The event will look at how the road system is coping with increasing pressure, what changes are needed to the current infrastructure and whether technology can help us make better use of what we have.

 

This is a chance to put your questions and comments to academics and industry experts on:-

 

• what the future demand for roads will be and what priorities the public and businesses have 

• the role of industry and how demand can be met for an improved infrastructure
