High demand sees Logistics UK Transport Manager conferences sell out at multiple venues

Logistics UK’s Transport Manager 2026 autumn conferences launched at Haynes Motor Museum in Yeovil last week (Thursday 17 September) and with three venues in the series – Yeovil, Doncaster and Peterborough – having already sold out and several others almost full, anyone wishing to attend one of the events taking place this autumn is advised to book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

 A record number of more than 2,100 delegates attended last year’s 25^th anniversary conference series, or viewed a virtual conference, and this year’s programme is already promising to be just as popular.

Following the event in Yeovil, the one-day conference series moves on to Newcastle this week and then to venues around the country, giving attendees the chance to hear direct from expert speakers, including a panel session led by the local Traffic Commissioner, and representatives from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA), Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and National Highways, on wide-ranging topics affecting the role of the transport manager in 2026 and beyond.

Other speakers include leading law firm Weightmans, the Diabetes Safety Organisation, the National Vehicle Crime Intelligence Service (NaVCIS), and Logistics UK’s own experts.

Ben Fletcher, Logistics UK’s Chief Executive, said: “Our Transport Manager conferences provide the essential insight and guidance transport professionals need to prepare for the year ahead and beyond. Delegates will hear directly from leading industry figures, including the Traffic Commissioners, alongside updates from our own experts. With several venues already sold out and strong demand across the remaining locations, I would encourage anyone wishing to attend to secure their place as soon as possible to avoid missing out.”

Transport Manager is now officially CPD-certified by The CPD Certification Service, and its official logo will be on the certificate of attendance.

Transport Manager 2026 is supported by series sponsor Weightmans and a variety of regional exhibitors. For further information, or to book a place, please visit: https://logistics.org.uk/event/transport-manager-26/
