Final call to book for Logistics UK’s Transport Manager Northern Ireland conference

Time is running out for fleet operators and transport professionals to secure their places at the upcoming Logistics UK Transport Manager Northern Ireland conference, taking place on Wednesday, 30 September 2026 at the Culloden Hotel and Spa in Belfast.

With only one week left until the event, anyone involved in Northern Ireland’s logistics sector is being urged to register immediately to ensure they don’t miss out on a vital networking and educational hub.

The comprehensive, one-day conference is specifically tailored to provide transport managers with critical updates on upcoming legislation, compliance advice and operational insights needed to navigate the year ahead safely and legally.

The event features an informative and engaging agenda tailored specifically for the logistics industry in Northern Ireland and featuring expert senior industry speakers. Attendees will hear direct updates from the Driver and Vehicle Agency (DVA) and the Transport Regulation Unit (TRU), alongside a core compliance overview from Logistics UK’s own Member Advice Centre.

In addition to regulatory updates, the programme tackles critical legal and safety challenges. Legal firm Weightmans – which also serves as the series sponsor – will deliver a session on undertaking protective internal investigations during a crisis.

Meanwhile, the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) will present on its ‘Fatal Five’ road safety initiative, and the Health and Safety Executive Northern Ireland (HSENI) will address workplace risks regarding diesel engine exhaust exposure.

This year’s conference also places a strong emphasis on health, recognising that operational success relies heavily on driver wellbeing. The Diabetes Safety Organisation will present ‘Hiding in Plain Sight’, a session highlighting the impact of the Type 2 diabetes crisis on the logistics sector. In addition, local charity Aware NI will lead a vital discussion on mental health awareness.

Ben Fletcher, Logistics UK’s chief executive, said: “Anyone responsible for the operation of vehicle fleets in Northern Ireland should come along to this exclusive conference to hear the latest compliance and legislative advice, as well as useful industry insights and wellbeing guidance to help transport managers remain within the law and safely manage their operations in the year to come.”
