A WELCOME LETTER FROM EDITOR OF NCE, CLAIRE SMITH:
Welcome to New Civil Engineer’s Future of Rail event which is the third in our 2021 Future of Transport series of conferences that bring together the four established events from the physical world to a virtual format. Our Future of Bridges event was held on 15 June and the Future of Roads was held on 1 July, with content from both now available on demand to delegates of those events,  and Future of Airports is planned to take place on 16 November.
The theme running through all of this year’s Future of Transport events is the challenge facing the sector in delivering on the government’s 2050 carbon net zero commitments, while still maintaining existing infrastructure and investing new sections of the network. As well as contending with these difficult issues, the rail sector is now facing its biggest change in 25 years following announcement of the formation of Great British Railways in May to bring infrastructure and train operators much closer together.
Future of Rail’s content will give you the chance to gain insight into current best practice, looks at developing industry trends and consider how the rail infrastructure industry will change over the next few years as the planned Great British Railway funding periods come into play in 2024 at the end of CP6.
The virtual platform we have selected for these events means that the networking opportunities available at a physical event are replicated in the virtual environment but with a few benefits. Please take the time to set up your profile on the Swapcard platform in order to get the best experience of these events beyond the conference programmes. 
The platform uses artificial intelligence and the details you enter to match you with others attending the event that you might be interested to meet but you are also able to interact with our sponsors and arrange private one-to-one meetings.
I hope you enjoy this event and, if you’ve not already booked a place, there is still time to sign up for our other Future of Transport events to watch live for Future of Airports or on demand for the Future of Bridges and Future of Roads content.
