The FEHRL Infrastructure Research Meeting 2013 (FIRM13) is on track to being the biggest meeting yet of its kind - have you reserved your place?

The first TRA2012 newsletter has just been sent out to key transport research professionals.

Last month (18th–19th October), over 180 road research experts met in Brussels to discuss more than 25 road research projects.

Under the title "Tomorrow's transport, today's innovation: mapping EU transport research", DG RTD Transport included the INTRO, NR2C and INQUEST projects in an animation on their website.

The INTRO DVD, which was handed out to all attendees at the Final Workshop, is also now available to download or view online. The DVD presents a summary of the technical work packages of the project.  It can be found on the "Movies" section of this site.

The Intelligent Roads (INTRO) final workshop within the Safe Highways of the Future Conference took place on the 13th of February in Brussels. There was a great level of interest in the conference. An archive of the live webcast from the conference is now available to view online. This will allow you to access the presentations and the slides. You will need to register to use the archive, but colleagues and others not at the conference are welcome to do so.
