Why Visit Traffex 2027
Two Days to Find What Works on Your Network
Roads. Reality. Results. From Strategy to Street Level.
You don't need more strategy. You need the products, partners and peer know-how to get schemes delivered on your network, with your budget, this year. Traffex puts all of it in one hall: the suppliers, the practitioners who've done it, and the conversations you can't have over email.
19 to 20 May 2027, CBS Arena, Coventry. Free to attend.

What You'll Get From the Day
The top reasons visitors gave us for coming in 2026 were seeing new products, keeping up with the market and meeting their peers. Traffex 2027 is built around all three.
See it working before you buy
Live demonstrations and kit you can get your hands on, from signals and detection to surfacing, safety products and asset management tech.
Browse the exhibitorsContent you can take back to the office
Sessions built around budgets, frameworks and real projects, across four themes that ask one question: how do you actually deliver?
Explore the themesSix stages, one venue
Structured planning sessions, informal demos and specialist deep dives on EV, parking and winter resilience. Pick the format that suits how you work.
See the stagesMeet the people you usually email
Suppliers, contractors, consultants and fellow authorities, face to face. For many, it's the one chance each year to catch up properly.
Earn CPD while you're there
The conference programme is CPD accredited by the Institute of Highway Engineers, so your time out of the office counts.
Three shows, one visit
Traffex runs alongside Parkex and Cold Comfort, so highways, parking and winter service are all covered in the same trip.
