Corridors for Shared Prosperity & Sustainable Mobility

South East Europe is at an important crossroads in the development of its road connectivity programs, securing a critical role as a gateway for international trade routes. Due to its privileged geographical position, Croatia has been at the forefront of this process, through regional highway cooperation initiatives.

At a time of growing motorization, the region’s network of roads and highways is currently its largest public asset. However, significant challenges remain to enhance the safety, efficiency, environmental sustainability and resilience of the road network, underscoring the value of enhanced regional cooperation.

Organized by key representative organizations of the roads & mobility sector, the European Road Conference “Corridors for Shared Prosperity & Sustainable Mobility” is an essential platform to deepen the understanding of regional mobility challenges, and achieve consensus on key policy, investment and planning measures.

We have designed this event with the idea of providing a setting for sharing proven and innovative solutions for the region’s mobility challenges. With this Conference, our goal is to help policy-makers, planners and infrastructure operators across Europe and neighboring countries translate these challenges into concrete policy and planning decisions.

Welcome to Dubrovnik for this landmark regional event!

Program features

• Policy roundtables
• Presentation of the state of the art in road design & management
• Regional case studies presented by road agency heads
• Instructor-led Master Classes
• Special Interest Sessions
• Business networking opportunities

Partner Event: TRB Workshop on Road Signs & Markings

The US-based Transportation Research Board (TRB) is co-sponsoring a one-day workshop titled “Traffic Signs & Pavement Markings: International State of the Art on Policies & Research” organized on the opening day of the European Road Conference.

The workshop will bring together 3 TRB Standing Committees dealing with Visibility, Traffic Control Devices, Signing and Marking Materials, in an effort to foster international consensus on best practices in driver information systems and lay the scientific groundwork for future interactions with connected & autonomous vehicles. Topics addressed will include the role of markings & signs in a changing societal and technological environment, good maintenance practices and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications.

Carmine Dwyer, Chairperson for TRB’s Committee on Signing and Marking Materials noted “This special interest session will share the international state of the art on the design and maintenance of traffic signs and pavement markings through a cross-sector panel of road agencies, research institutions and industry stakeholders”.

According to IRF Executive Vice President Michael G. Dreznes, “the TRB-sponsored workshop could not come at a better time. The downward trend in global traffic injuries has been on pause since 2013, and is particularly notable in developed economies which had enjoyed a steady decline over the previous decade. Without adequate horizontal and vertical signage, drivers are unable to make informed decisions and are particularly prone to run-off road accidents”.

Partner Event: Danube Road Safety Conference

The RADAR Danube conference is a chance to lay out where we are in safety assessment of road networks, where we want to get to and start to understand how this will happen.

RADAR project helps national governments in the Danube Region to identify the obstacles, reduce the risks, develop a strategy and raise awareness on road infrastructure in the region.

Previous projects show that 60-70 % of inter-urban roads are categorized high or very high risk in the Danube region. RADAR project is addressing this disappointing road safety performance in the Danube region, where fatality rates are higher than the EU average and road infrastructure quality and safety varies from country to country.

Join us on Wednesday, October 24, 2018, from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m., at the Hotel Valamar Lacroma, Ul. Iva Dulčića 34, 20000, Dubrovnik, Croatia. Complimentary access for all European Road Conference delegates.

Topics:

• How to plan investments for safer road?
• What can we do to make vulnerable road users safer?
• How to build road safety into intelligent transportation systems?
• How can the proactive approach of star ratings around schools make a difference?
• How to build a transnational strategy for the road infrastructure safety?

Unique for its impressive medieval forts, churches, monuments and palaces, Dubrovnik is often called the pearl of the Adriatic. More than a thousand-year old history of Dubrovnik made it a cultural centre of Europe. Initially a small community, the city flourished in no time and became the seat of the independent Dubrovnik Republic. History is present in the entire city, which is both a museum and a picturesque stage where cultural heritage and contemporary life meet. All houses and monuments have a unique value. The Old City is encompassed by medieval walls, which have been preserved in their original form and opened for visitors as Dubrovnik’s major attraction. In 1979 the City was included in UNESCO World Heritage Site list.

Conference Venue

The Valamar Lacroma Dubrovnik is located on the tranquil Babin Kuk peninsula, surrounded by pine tree forests and soothing white pebble beaches.

The hotel is just 17km from Dubrovnik Ćilipi (DBV) Airport
