About this event
Traffic and Transport Planning and Engineering can be cyclical, with projects having multiple lives before coming to fruition. During these cycles, the same project may be scoped multiple times with ever-increasing levels of complexity or not utilising international best practices.
How can we break the cycle and move from project scoping to operations more quickly?
Bringing the expertise of Professor David Hensher AM with the government and industry experience of Russell King and Tessa Knox Grant, we will discuss how we can do better as a transport industry and apply lessons learned from interstate and overseas to New South Wales.
Registrations close Monday 3 March 2025
