Timber Transport Conference 2020

This year’s Volvo-sponsored conference is in the North of England, a focus for forestry expansion to diversify land use, sustain the timber industries and address the Climate Emergency. The conference will cover UK timber transport issues with a focus on quality road haulage and the interface between timber haulage and rural communities.  Volvo Trucks will be presenting on innovation in emissions reductions and automation of road haulage. FISA will be providing an update on safety issues regarding timber haulage.  The Traffic Commissioner has agreed to present on regulating the haulage industry and the Road Haulage Association will provide a haulier perspective on industry development.  We will also be covering plant passporting, community engagement and skills. 

Available are 26 conference + dinner tickets for timber hauliers and three student conference tickets.

These will be allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis. To request a free ticket, please contact Liz Hughson at liz@confor.org.uk
