Places filling fast for Logistics UK’s autumn Transport Manager conferences

August 12, 2026
3 min read

Logistics UK’s Transport Manager conference series returns this autumn, with ticket sales significantly ahead of 2025 levels and one venue already fully booked. The series provides the latest advice on compliance and legislation changes, as well as useful industry insights and guidance to help transport managers and fleet professionals safely manage their fleet operations and stay within the law in the coming year.

Last year’s 25th anniversary Transport Manager conference series saw a record number of more than 2,100 delegates attend in person or view a virtual conference, and this year’s programme is already promising to be just as popular. Launching at Haynes Motor Museum in Yeovil on 17 September and moving on to venues around the country, the one-day conferences will give attendees the chance to hear direct from expert speakers, including an engaging 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: “We are excited to welcome delegates back to our Transport Manager conferences around the country this autumn. Our comprehensive programme brings together leading experts to examine the key challenges and opportunities facing operators, delivering the knowledge and practical advice needed to run safe, legal and successful transport operations. Several venues sold out last year, and we are already experiencing strong demand for this year’s events, so I would encourage anyone wishing to attend to book their place early to avoid disappointment.”

Logistics UK is an approved CPD (continuing professional development) provider and delegates will receive a certificate of attendance after the event.

Transport Manager 2026 is supported by bronze sponsor Weightmans and a variety of regional exhibitors. For full information on dates and venues, and to book a place, please visit: https://logistics.org.uk/transport-manager
