Event, News - Published: 26 September 2024

Registration is now open for a free-of-charge, one-day conference on 16 January 2025, to showcase ‘Old Roads, New Technologies: safe and intelligent road asset management’ solutions from the EU–funded OMICRON and InfraROB projects. Representatives of transport authorities, road operators, construction companies, engineering and material supplier companies, research entities, associations, media organisations, policymakers and anyone who’s interested in finding out more are invited to register.

Come and join us in Madrid from 09:00-18:00 CET on 16 January 2025!

The preliminary agenda for the conference is now online for consultation and download from the event page, available on the OMICRON final event and InfraROB final event webpages, which will be updated as details develop.

Why take part?

‘Old Roads, New Technologies’ will be the final event of OMICRON and InfraROB. For three years, these projects have been addressing the challenges of Europe’s ageing road networks and how to manage and maintain them more safely and effectively. Their approach is to industrialise, automate, modularise or integrate a broad portfolio of technologies for road infrastructure construction, inspection and maintenance. These solutions will be presented, demonstrated and discussed within the context of wider issues that affect road owners and concessionaries, construction companies, policymakers and regulators in Europe’s road sector.

The EU-funded HERON project will also feature during the day, along with an exhibition of key technologies from all three projects.

Participation in the day will offer:

  • opportunities to network with diverse experts from among the project consortia, invited guests from the road sector, and participating audience;
  • the chance for direct information and follow-up about the presented and exhibited solutions;
  • the opportunity to contribute to wider discussion that helps set the agenda for future collaboration and developments in the relevant sectors;
  • experience the historic Colegio de Ingenieros de Caminos, Canales y Puertos (College of Engineers for Roads, Canals and Ports) in the heart of Madrid.

Final agenda

The day will explore key developments for Europe’s roads, following five thematic areas:

  • digital inspection and monitoring technologies;
  • smart construction;
  • predictive maintenance;
  • smart intervention;
  • safe intervention.

Panel discussions will feature guests from the road industry beyond these projects, exploring the immediate and future impacts and implications of the developments presented.
