Logistics UK brings Transport Manager conference online this November

With Logistics UK’s Transport Manager 2026 conference series approaching the halfway mark and places at the remaining venues filling quickly, the business group is providing an alternative opportunity for transport managers to access key guidance and industry updates. Its Virtual Transport Manager event, taking place on Friday 20 November, will enable delegates from across the country to participate remotely if they are unable to travel to an in-person event, whether due to location, time or business pressures, or if they do not have time to attend all the sessions in one go.

The virtual one-day conference will follow the same format as the in-person events currently being held around the country and will provide all the information and guidance on legislation to delegates which the industry-leading conferences are renowned for.

Logistics UK is delighted to have secured the involvement of the Traffic Commissioners for the whole series, both virtual and in-person, and the virtual event will include a Traffic Commissioner’s panel session discussing their priorities for the year ahead.

Other expert speakers include representatives from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA), Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and National Highways, covering wide-ranging topics affecting the role of the transport manager in 2026 and beyond. The event will also include sessions by 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: “While not everyone can make it to one of our in-person events, staying informed about changes to regulations and compliance requirements is more important than ever. Virtual Transport Manager 2026 offers all the key updates, guidance and practical advice delivered at our live conferences, making it easy to access the information you need from wherever you are. We encourage anyone who has missed an in-person event to join us online and get their compliance awareness up to speed.”

Transport Manager is 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/
