Transport managers, have you kept up to date with all the compliance information you need to operate efficiently this year? Over 1,200 delegates are already booked to attend Logistics UK’s Transport Manager autumn 2023 conference series, which kicks off on 21 September at Haynes Motor Museum in Yeovil. Ten events will take place around the UK, as well as a virtual event. Now in its 23rd year, Transport Manager is the industry’s leading event at which to learn all the latest compliance information and guidance on legislation and other issues affecting operators. This year, the event series is sponsored by Brigade Electronics, BP, Weightmans and WTW.

· The latest regulatory updates, including Direct Vision Standard (DVS) and General Safety Regulation (GSR).
· An interview with Loveday Ryder, Chief Executive of the DVSA.
· An introduction to the Commercial Vehicles Workshop Rating Scheme.
· Load security incidents and how to manage the fallout.
· Introducing alternative fuels into your operation.
· The Metropolitan Police Commercial Vehicle Unit on the award-winning Transport Professionals Talk.
Kate Jennings, Logistics UK’s Director of Policy, said: “Transport Manager provides the ideal opportunity for those in charge of vehicle fleets to brush up on the latest legislation and compliance issues. Bookings for this year’s conferences are already higher than at the same time in previous years and with only a short time until the series kicks off in Yeovil, anyone wishing to attend is advised to book their place as soon as possible.”
